  1. Metallica - Death Magnet, which is very good suprisingly.
  2. Battlefield Earth, nothing in this world could force me to watch this again.
  3. Here's some clips that I like, of thebands that I love: Metallica And then perfection.... Tool The the song that really got me into music and probably formed my music taste as it tis today... Korn
  4. Try monster Island and Monster nation, but I can't remember the Authors name.
  5. Welcome home (sanitarium) - Metallica Five minutes alone - Pantera Standing in the Rain - Billy Talent A different shade of green - Incubus Mouth - Paradise lost Sober - Tool Judith - A perfect circle Passenger - Deftones
  6. Yeah, its different from the book. Its an alright movie, but its different from the book.
  7. Its a very silly program, but you don't have to think about it too much and even though some of th edialogue is poorly executed its still entertaining.
  8. Gosh, that sounds dreadful. For reasons to right letters, onions really do deserve it. Lets forget Darfur and the plight of children in Ethiopia, they
  9. They don't need 'em, they have fur you see.
  10. Tis true, season one is the cats pj's though.
  11. Lets not forget, season two of Dark angel was naff.
  12. He won't regenerate into a woman - because he's male. No other timelord has changed gender when regenerating, why should he? The rani never became a man and the master never a woman and they have all died enough to test the theory.
  13. He should go find ace, she was much better than the new companions. She blew stuff up and hit darleks with a baseball bat. Thats hardcore.
  14. If its milk choc then try a pinot noir or a chillean merlot, avoid anything too spicey like australian shiraz or rioja. If its dark choc then try a spanish cabernet sauvignon or a zingy zinfandel, avoiding anything too light as a Beaujolais or Sangiovasse.
  15. Its been years since I read "A game of thrones", i'll have to fish it out and have a read again.
  16. Thats was good, although I think they will find a way to flip it back again like they did wotht the paradox engine a while back.
  17. Try the Horus Heresy series if your looking for a good read, the first one by Dan Ablett is awesome. Here's the blurb from the back... "It is the 31st millennium. The forces of humanity have reached the stars. Under the benevolent leadership of the Immortal Emperor and his superhuman sons, the primarchs, the Imperium of Man has stretched out across the galaxy. It is a golden age of discovery and conquest. But now, on the eve of victory, the Emperor leaves the front lines, entrusting the great crusade to his favourite son, Horus. Promoted to Warmaster, can the idealistic Horus carry the Emperor
  18. Try world war Z or Monster Island, both very good zombie yarns.
  19. Why thank you

  20. Coolio, Dracula is a good idea. I like the way it breaches genres - Romance and Horror.
  21. Howdy Folks, I was thinking earlier today about which horror books are quintessential, must read books. Books which defined the genre, created movements and are still influencing authors today. Now they don't have to be critically acclaimed, I'm more interested in what you (yes you, over there!) feel to be the most important novels in the genre. My first... The Call of Cthulhu Short stories rather than a novel, but the story captures my imagination more than any other horror story. A big, ancient sea monster, worshipped by the evil and the insane wakes up and death and terror follow. Its a great adventure story as well. Ace with a capitol A, here’s an excerpt of HP Lovecraft’s prose, which can get a bit dense in places: They worshipped, so they said, the Great Old Ones who lived ages before there were any men, and who came to the young world out of the sky. Those Old Ones were gone now, inside the earth and under the sea; but their dead bodies had told their secrets in dreams to the first men, who formed a cult which had never died...hidden in distant wastes and dark places all over the world until the time when the great priest Cthulhu, from his dark house in the mighty city of R'lyeh under the waters, should rise and bring the earth again beneath his sway. Some day he would call, when the stars were ready, and the secret cult would always be waiting to liberate him. I would also be remiss if I didn't mention the cool sounding rhyming couplet that finds its way into loads of other media: That is not dead which can eternal lie, And with strange aeons even death may die. Now, what’s yours?
