The Big Lebowski isn't the greatest film ever made. In fact, I have disliked every Coen Brothers film that I've seen, and think they are overrated.

Now I recognise (with the wisdom that my age should bring) that part of my dislike is a habitual reaction to a school friend who was a film snob - he thought they were brilliant and would get very psuedo-analytical about why - but in my defence, The Big Lebowski isn't terribly funny, rips off other better films (including North by Northwest), features the awful John Turturro, and seems to amble along without any real story or message.

Maybe I should watch it again... so I can better defend my opinion.

Thanks for letting me come back guys.

I have mixed feelings about Steam, on one hand, it's a pretty convenient way to get games, but on the other, it's quite intrusive when you're playing a game and gets in the should you be installing from a hardcopy.

Of course, in the wake of Steam, other similar platforms have emerged and these probably annoy me more - Origin is required for Battlefield 3, and I think Far Cry 3 required Uplay or something.

I'd be down for some gaming ones, and Agents of SHIELD sounds good too. Assuming that my recording sample passed muster of course.

Slightly unrelated, but I wish Saruman had been portrayed in a more positive light. I think it would have been much more powerful for the story had he been a good guy here, and not some shady character being a dick to Gandalf and Radaghast.

Oh thank god/Teague, that was niggling me.

Just saw this, hmm... not completely sold on it. Am I getting old, or does the cast appear to be a bunch of kids?
