I helped my friend produce a short film about sustainability for our school, and on a whim he decided to narrate it with an Australian accent that sounds to me like a cross between Steve Irwin and Bruce the Shark from "Finding Nemo." For reasons that will become obvious when you watch the...

...that the election is over? I felt bombarded by the toxic energy of all the ads that seemed to have infested every conceivable media source the past few months, and tired of the perpetual stream of automated calls we received about candidates and propositions on the ballot. Today it was so...

they'd be a "Mac" or a "PC"? Do you think Elizabeth Bennet would use a MacBook, or opt for a Dell? Would Dolores Haze, aka “Lolita” want the bubble-gum pink Sony Vaio? I think Pablo Picasso, Dorian Gray and Mercutio would go for the iMac. Benjamin Franklin would probably select a sensible...

i just bought a volvo v40 1996 model with a mcc-1 nokia cradle installed. does anyone know what nokia phones are compatible with the cradle?

i was wondering if i can put my mission speakers in my car.

I was watching some episode of something today, (what a great starting sentence), and in it a guy drank down an entire glass of an almost certainly non-alcoholic beverage, and upon finishing slammed the glass down and made some loud but nondescript "Ah" refreshed sound. Is this a regular thing...

I don't really think that is entirely case, though I can't be sure which episodes you're referencing. The girl using the That doesn't particularly scream selfish for me. Can't defend Lucchini, don't like her character at all from the start of season 1 to now she has been a selfish, childish...

I recognise a lot of them by character name rather than by va name (for instance, I knew straight away that the AI in sora kake girl was Lelouch, as with Lawrence in Spice and Wolf, and that Horo was Kallen's va...) The one I do know is one of my favourites; Kugimiya Rie. I don't necessarily...

The male lead looked like Araragi but with a more um... pussy personality. The female lead reminded me of Taiga in virtually every aspect from her height. I found the narrator to be pretty funny contrary to some opinions and for a comedy the premise is appealing but kind of dumb. Did anyone...

I'm enjoying the fact that the series has moved past the struggles of the individuals to their movement towards unity and work as a whole against the Neuroi, although the With regard to the crotch shots, this might sound funny to some people but even in the first episode I didn't really notice...

Kaichou wa Maid-sama recently did an episode wherein Usui pretended that he was a foreigner and put on a terrible Japanese accent; again where the flow of the sentence was broken and the pitching was all wrong. It was only briefly used so he wouldn't be exposed, and mostly played up for comedic...

help pls? No mate you've got the wrong thread. Check this thread out for identifying anime series. jhonsadins er... copy/pasting Tony K's moderation warning on the 3rd post to what end?

I actually like the really clean, basic art style - especially the "dead" nature of the eyes of contractors. It allows for more complex facial expressions and I think just adds some of the unique flavour that makes its predecessor great. Of course, anyone who's read my top 10 knows that I love...

In terms of a Japanese "Die Hard", I'd say the movie Hard Boiled is about as close as it gets. Different story, but the movie had a hollywood blockbuster feel with unrelenting action, sweet gunfights and mounting tension. It was an awesome movie (though I only vaguely remember it - I saw it...

Yep I figured anyone who's seen the series even once should be able to get it. I'll try harder in a couple of months when I get another guess right ;) Your turn.
