I coulden't even get the controls of Tactics, let alone enjoy it.  I can pick up video games pretty well, but that game was just bad IMO.  I liked playing just the one character of the two main Fallout games and building up his stats and items...even your companions took care of themselves for the most part.

Tactics just felt too busy with like 4-5 people to handle.

New Reno would be awesome!  I'd have Dave Chappelle play the druggie Jimmy.

I voted Sci-Fi. The last movie I went to see was I am Legend. I'm like Spoonrobot and like the post-apocalyptic stories.  I like the the Madmaxx series, I like the first two Matrix movies. I even liked The Postman which everyone I know hated. Blade Runner is on of my favorites.

I'll vote for Mad Max.

It is, (not completely by chance), the closest thing to a Fallout movie.

I think Fallout would be better as a Miniseries, maybe six 1 hour episodes per game. You can't get one of those games into two hours of screen time - People have tried with other books/games etc, and end up disappointing all the fans.

Episode One - Shady Sands, Vault 15, and Raiders
Episode Two - Junktown, introduce the hub before the end.
Epidsode Three - adventures in the Hub - about now the game can go anywhere you like, so I'll let more powerful minds than mine think about the layout. (I also don't remember enough details to vision how it'd go.)

The Roguish, knife-throwing Katja would make a better Love-interest than Tandi.

I have no idea who the actors would be. (I've never been any good at that game)


The only other Computer game I can think of that I really played and loved was The Incredible Machine, but how that would be a movie, I don't know.

I'm kinda partial to KILL BILL 1&2 :angel:

Great films.  :)  Infact all of Quentin Tarantino's films have been really good.  My favourite is Reservoir Dogs.

Kill Bill 1 and 2 are great! I love when movies make good use of Ennio Morricone music.

You guys want to know something funny? In Kill Bill 1 Uma wears Asics yellow Tai Chi shoes a la Bruce Lee in "Game of Death." My 11 year old niece caught a heavily edited version of KB1 and is driving me nuts trying to find those stupid shoes! Supposedly, Asics ran a limited production of yellow Tai Chi's (the rep said 10,000 pair worldwide) and now they are going for up to $600 US a pair!!!! I'd probably have better luck getting her Uma's motorcycle! I've found some British stores selling yellow Mexico 66's which look like them. maybe I'll go that way. Heavens, the problem those big feet of Uma's caused me...

I suppose it won't be long before I am being asked for things like that from my daughter.  ::) :)

Do yourself a favor and keep her away from Tarantino movies!!! :D

They may seem like guy films, but Kill Bill has a lot of Girl Power, and girls seem to like the characters. I'm also tasked to find the schoolgirl outfit Go Go Yibari wears in the movie. My niece also likes the yellow Bruce Lee jumpsuit. Apparently, there's quite a demand for those things. I found a costume shop which sells them. You don't know how it hurts to go: "Gee, I could get 2 Surges for that outfit!...."

Why couldn't Uma have used a Swisstool instead of a samurai sword, and then I could've have purloined the ST when my niece tired of it? As Kurt Vonnegut said, "So it goes..."

Regards, Bill.
