SomethingAwful has a bunch of B-Movie-style poster spoofs which are well worth a look.Page 8 has the HP one, most of the rest are pretty good too.
Apparently, Lost has been cancelled - in 2010 (well, assuming it doesn't happen soon, say, if the ratings keep falling). Three more 16-episode seasons - a hard limit which (together with the fact that ( Read more... )

Me too :-( I cried for, like, the entire second half.

Actually, I haven't Spidey yet - I was to busy bike-hunting on Saturday and Sunday, and by Monday I really couldn't face going into town again, so I'll go and see it this weekend.

That's a shame, as without my geek card such activities as downloading torrents and burning CDs are certainly way beyond me.

I LOVED The Longest Journey... I wonder if they've ever come out with the sequel? You might also like Syberia and Syberia II if you like TLJ... I fully admit that it's the stories and characterizations in both that really got me. You know the graphics and stuff aren't really my baliwick.

They did indeed come out with a sequel. The reviews are apparently rather more ... mixed than for the original, but I shall have to see for myself. In due course - I'm only up to chapter 5 "There And Back Again" (now where have I seen that before...) of TLJ...

I remember you mentioning Syberia before - I'll be sure to check it out if TLJ has indeed started me on an adventure game kick.

TLJ is probably the best game ever. Well, maybe.

I played it again last year, I found a couple of fixes on the interweb - have a look around.

Also, I tend to find that if you like TLJ you'll like Beyond Good and Evil

It's definitely up there with the likes of Monkey Island - 'tis rather harder to compare, say, an adventure to an RTS to an FPS to an RPG...

I picked it up via Steam (Valve's online content delivery thingummybob), so I'm not sure whether patches for the CD/DVD versions work. Still, regular saving got me to the end without too much annoyance.
