Movies: Edge of Darkness & Miramax News

After a long hiatus, Mel Gibson returns to the screen in the revenge thriller, Edge of Darkness. Are Alex, Dan, and Jeff happy to have him back? Is the film more than just Taken 2?

Cinema in the 90's was defined, in large part, by Miramax Studios. The guys react to the news that this unique independent voice may be going away forever.

This may be the longest running (by episodes) show I've watched.
Without missing an episode that is. Though that depends on how many episodes of Scrubs there is. But I digress.

Agreed with the thank yous to Jeff, Dan, Alex, Mike & Steve (who isn't actually called Steve? o_O) as well as thanking all previous guests, places like comicon, people at Bungie, the activity of geo-tagging and anyone and anything else that has helped contribute to the Radness. =O

Time to watch the show now though.

Biggest flaw about MAG are really the players without headsets. Unfortunately, the PS3 never sold any bundles with headsets, even if the official ones are pretty decent. But anybody familiar with teamwork will know that the lack of communication will always be their downfall.

Sid Meier's Civilisation or SimCity on the iPad would be quite cool to play. Not sure how much kick the Apple A4 can give at 1GHz, so I'll just assume games will be fairly simple. For now, at least.

And here's to answer the question...
How is babby formed?

Had to post this, (not my video) the officer in command of this SVER game ordered everyone to converge in to one position to take objectives.
They obeyed.

128 players in one location, no frame rate issues or lag whatsoever!

Just incredible for a console game.

I am loving MAG. Nobody replied to my post about it.

Alex, you get Respec points and can respec your character skills... The idea is, just like the factions, to pick one thing and stick with it. But if you need to change, you have that option, but you can't just do it all the time.

Dan, the graphics are terrible?? They aren't Killzone 2, but they're decent... When you consider the size of these maps and the number of people who are playing... I expected less.

Jeff, once again, completely agree. I did like Battlefield Bad Company, but my interest quickly waned. I love MAG, however, and I don't see myself picking up BFBC2 now that I have taken a liking to MAG.

I wanted to hear more about the guys opinions of the ipad, they hardly mentioned it.

So much in the media at present and so many different views, would have been very interesting to here there impressions (no Jeff not that kind of impression)

Will have to wait till tomorrow and Diggnation to here Alex opinion I guess

PS.
Don't worry about messing up, your lines etc, it's much nicer to have a more relaxed ambiance with mistakes than to have a strict formal show.

Great show once again. TRS is the #1 I look forward to each week old/new media. Tuesday lunches at my desk = rad.

Was dismissive about Mel's latest, but now I'm interested.

Blank stares from How is babby formed?



The RPG stuffs you imagine on the iPad is the stuffs imagined on the M$ Surface stuffs long ago. I fear the iPad has not the power to do what people would like.

The killer move for Apple would have been to make the iPad an "accessory" to an iPhone or iPod touch - you would simply slot in/dock your device into the Pad and whala increased screen size - can do everything your device already does only biggerer. No need to sync between 3 devices. Maybe a bit of a boost in graphics performance would be necessary (a graphics chip enabling some simple upscaling/3D performance enhancement), but this would allow Apple to keep the cost (relatively) low.

Most people with an iPhone/Touch won't be getting this. Some people with neither (like me) might consider getting something like this alone. Price such an "accessory" correctly and everyone will have to have both.

To be honest, I was much more surprised that Jeff knew about How is babby formed than that the other guys didn't, that meme never really took off, did it?
