I really want to see This Is The End as well. I forgot about that one.

Brilliant rant. Funny, vicious and oh so true.

Most probably migrated to Call of Duty in the past few years. Wouldn't surprise me.

I haven't been in a Gamestop since 2007. It's a good thing there are other video-game retailer choices in my area (like Game-Xchange), otherwise I'd do everything through the Internet.

Any games that I've ever traded in the past where ones I were sure/satisified that I played through enough to never use them again or titles that I knew would be easy/cheap to buy again if I was inclined. Truth be told, I do this more with movies (and the titles I trade in are ones that I plan to upgrade to their blu-ray version).

If it's building-related, I really think it's this middle school building (for 8th grade) that seems to bring out the allergies. I don't know if its mold, it may just be ventilation problems. The intermediate building is having its former front office remodeled (to be a community clinic) and that's bringing all sorts of dust, debris and whatnot into the air. Not to mention ghastly, dead animal smells. Bleh...

Sounds like you have roughly 2 months to clean rooms then. Summer school is what it is but it can really get in the way of work which is the only thing I hate about summer work.

All due respect to these teachers but most of them are unbelievable packrats. It took me 90 minutes just to clear out one room Friday (granted, I was working by myself but still).

Congrats! I'm sure you consider your class size to be small but I'm pretty sure my class didn't break 80 (I once lived in the Middle of Nowhere, Arkansas, however).

I love Ni No Kuni. I need to get back to it. For some reason I've placed more attention on shooters (Killzone 3, Halo 4) recently. I love how old-fashioned it is.

I own a copy of Grave of the Fireflies and I've only seen it once. I agree: great film but its emotionally overwhelming and logically it proceeds and ends the only way it can. I value movies (especially the animated kind, for they are rare) that sheds light on post-war life (the stories we rarely hear about) and says so much with so little. Isao Takahata is a master and I'd recommend Only Yesterday if you haven't seen it. It's happy, hilarious and very much a slice-of-life film (that happens to be animated).

1) Phantasy Star IV, 2) Skies of Arcadia, 3) Xenoblade Chronicles, 4) Chrono Trigger, 5) Secret of Mana, 6) Final Fantasy XII, 7) Skyrim, 8) Knights of the Old Republic, 9) Mass Effect, 10) Final Fantasy IV

I don't mind digital manuals for Vita games as long as all of the essential info is there (and not just copyright, warranty stuff). For console games, it can be a problem. Halo 4 didn't come with one and I'm sure there are some commands I haven't figured out (had to look online to know how to assassinate, for example). If it's on the disc, like via the menus, that's fine. If in the case of Uncharted 3, where you have to download it separately, that's annoying.
