Anaheim-Vegas maglev train project gets $45 million infusion

Jun 8th 2008 2:00AM (Engadget)
The government just spent close to $300 million just to build a two mile long bridge over six feet of water in my town. How in the hell is this project only going to cost $45 million?

THQ: WoW has peaked, Warhammer 40k MMO years away

"Yes, but what about World of Starcraft?"

It would suck. Starcraft absolutely, and 100% ripped off 40k. The story and rich background of the 40k Universe has few equals, and Starcraft is a poor man's 40k anyway.

My fav. scene is when Leonidas throws the spear and the spear's reflection is seen in Xerxes throne as it travels to scar him; proving that even gods can be wounded.

On The Lot: Contestant Films - Round 2 (continued)

Jul 4th 2007 4:19AM (AOL TV)
btw the episode of Spaced aired in 2001, it's been around a long time. In the end it does not matter if Zach "borrowed" an idea for a short. As the saying goes, "Talent borrows, genius steals." The contest obviously is NOT about film making, but putting on a beauty show. It's so blatantly obvious that Zach is going to win in the end it's just ridiculous for the show to go on any further.

The contest should have been limited to 10 contestants period; chosen by the online public. Those 10 contestants should have had to make a REAL short movie; 10-15 minutes long and the show should have had a better organization for online viewing, with the voting taking place over the course of a WEEK, not in the immediate timeframe after the show.

Lastly, there should have let the judges actually RATE each film and have the score weigh just almost as much as the online votes.

It's a shame that because of this crappily thought out contest, and the utter failure of Project Greenlight, there will most likely never be anything like this contest again.

Truth be told, the winner of this contest most likely will be bought out cheap and sent packin' after a week "On the Lot," mainly because after the contest is over nobody will give a shite anyway, especially since the contest is never coming back.

Zach stole from the creators of "Shawn of the Dead" via their awesome British t.v. show "Spaced." Here is the direct link to what he stole. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=U0BBvUO4V5o&mode=related&search=

Don Bluth trying to make Dragon's Lair movie

May 1st 2007 11:44PM (Joystiq)
Don Bluth Announced this back in 2001 at Comic Con and I think it would be a great movie. Too bad he can't just partner with the "new" Pixar/Disney, now that they are making classic animation again, as without Dragon's Lair there would have been no Lion King and certainly no classical animation left today.

A little background on game analysts

Feb 10th 2007 2:17AM (Joystiq)
I love how the "analysts" continuously ignore the success of the Wii and the installed base of the 360 in their predictions that the PS3 will once again reign supreme. Also, I love how the astronomical price of the PS3 is totally ignored. By having $500 minimum pricing it automatically eliminates the PS3 as a mass market device, let alone a game system.

Microsoft can and will lower the price of the 360 this year. It could EASILY drop the price of the core system to $199, virtually sealing the absolute doom of Sony. What can Sony do? Even if the price of the PS3 is dropped to $400 THIS Christmas it will still cost twice as much (hypothetically) as the 360 and STILL not have enough exclusive games to push spending twice as much as the 360.

Nintendo is laughing all the way to the bank; making profit day one from the Wii system sales and even if the Wii sensation dies out significantly at the end of this year, Nintendo would have sold enough Wii's to severely damage Sony this critical year.
