Pssh, "unless Rogue has any objections." Dude, game on!
Also: Maximus (Gladiator) Xena (She did do an animated movie as Xena ) Lestat (Anne Rice's Vampire Chronicles) Li Mu Bai (Crouching Tiger) Beatrix Kiddo (Kill Bill) Blondie (Clint Eastwood's character from The Good, The Bad and the Ugly) Batman (You could have him be the campy '60s Batman, making him not near as badass) Donatello (Or any of the other Ninja Turtles) Hellboy Mad Max (Road Warrior) Blade The Crow Robin Hood And just to make things interesting... The Dude (The Big Lebowski, for he always abides) I would throw in people like Wolverine, the Hulk, or Superman, but with their powers to continue fighting unharmed on top of their strength/fighting abilities, it would really be unfair. |

Originally posted by Mr. ClubOriginally posted by Elara Yes, and he's my favorite too. I would throw in a few people who will be in movies soon, but for now, they're still a bit on the obscure side (Jesse Custer from "Preacher," for example, who speaks with the voice of God). |

I've been referencing this thing off-and-on since '03. It's a pretty funny and slightly accurate source of geekery. I've noticed that I go between many of these things and hell practically further than they list.
|
So aside from the not having a Star Wars category what else do you think is missing and what levels do you think should that include?

No wish, so moving on.

I wish you would not grant me this wish.

Originally posted by Mr. Club Oh, come on. The obsession with catgirls and anthros? That's furry, even if it just edges on it. And don't you like anime and video games? I fall in at least six of the columns. I'm amused they didn't throw in filk song writers. I used to do that, along with write fan fiction.

Originally posted by NUCKLEARKNIGHT Yes. I only know a couple phrases myself. EDIT: I am guilty of at least 19 of the above offenses. I'm part of a space LARP with a friend (partially based on Firefly), I own a cheesy life-size replica of the Green Destiny sword, I used to write fan fiction and filk songs based on the Extreme Ghostbusters, I go to Ren faires and conventions like there's no tomorrow and I used to work for a Rocky Horror Picture Show cast (that SHOULD be listed under the Geek Hierarchy, but isn't).

Lestat.
|
Hands down. Since he's a well-aged vampire, he's been made able to not only be super strong, but able to walk around in the daylight, oh and not to mention he's immortal and impervious to physical damage. Bond is no match.

Vampires are super fast and stealthy. And Lestat can fly/levitate and is super strong.
|
Lestat, unlike the other vampires of the Vampire Chronicles, can not only walk around in the day, but spontaneously regenerates when injured. Also unlike the typical vampires of other stories, Lestat cannot be killed using a wooden stake to the heart, garlic, holy water, crosses, or silver. Simply put, none of the typical vampire wards work against the French vampire. All gadgets aside, none of them would be able to kill Lestat. He's been stabbed, cut up, fed to alligators, burned, and left for dead, but still has come back to rock out with his band. You don't just stop being a vampire, hence why it's a curse to many of them who yearn to be in the sunlight and in Louie's case to see real colors. In conclusion, real men don't use gadgets.

Originally posted by Seticus See: "Interview with the Vampire." Not only did he lift Louie up, flying high above the ground, but Louie, even as a young vampire is ridiculously strong (shown in the scene where he holds Christian Slater to the ceiling). Louie, being sired by Lestat, gains some of Lestat's abilities. The so-called Wikipedia entry on him: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lestat Originally posted by Seticus Huh? If you follow any of Anne Rice's work (it was even mentioned in the first movie too), Lestat and the other vampires do not fall under the same ways to be beaten as a typical vampire, like Bram Stoker's Dracula. They are immortal because they are eternally young and alive after thousands of years if they avoid direct sunlight, among other such things like fire. As written by Anne Rice in "The Vampire Lestat," they look like humans and maintain the appearance of the age at which they become a vampire. The only difference is that their fingernails begin to look like glass after a while. Obviously you haven't seen "Interview" or read the books which comes to the next point. Originally posted by SeticusOriginally posted by RogueWow, weak argument there... James Bond had to fight daily with villians, had tortures before, and often got away in the nick of time (and usually cliche, might I add.) but compared to Lestat is stupid. Why? Lestat wasn't stabbed, cut up, fed to alligators and burned (I am not sure about the left for dead part) so this proves what? I don't even recalled several of those activity because people's ability to change the meaning of vampire. How is that a "weak" point? Bond can't survive a lot of those things without some serious body armor or "gadgets." Those all happened to Lestat in previous books INCLUDING "Interview." Are you not reading ANY of what I say before attacking my points and me, Seticus? What's more, please critique the fight based on the evidence within the storylines of the characters. Obviously vampires don't exist, but they do in movies and in Anne Rice's books. Originally posted by SeticusOriginally posted by RogueThis is a joke, right? Some vampires wanna-be acted like they are GOD. Instead of being "cursed", they want to be "blessed". Nope. Not a joke. Most of the vampires of Anne Rice's books consider immortality in their capacity to be a curse. They don't like having to feed on the living and only being able to exist in the dreary night. It's the reason why many find Rice's vampires fascinating; that they experience depression and are philosophical. In some circles the story goes that Judas supposedly lives on as a vampire for his betrayal against Christ, thus it being a curse. Originally posted by Cairoi This is true, but Lestat didn't. As noted earlier in this post, Lestat is the strongest of his kind and being burned like those vampires, would not kill him so easily. Hence why, even upon being burned in "Interview," he still came back at the end of the movie without any evidence of the previous fights, injuries, and so on. The only way Lestat can truly be beaten is if he were fighting someone after he's gone without feeding for a long time, so Bond would have to somehow restrain him for a long, long time and then either drop him in a hole and dump a whole lot of cement on it so he would never be able to get out, or find some other way to keep him down for the rest of eternity. Pretty much the way to beat him is to delay him. Bond, his weaknesses fall under women and getting the last laugh. Dangle a gorgeous woman in danger around him and he's suddenly 1000 times more concerned about winning the battle, keeping up appearances and getting laid in the end. Just because I chose the vampire path and you want to prove anyone pro-vampire wrong, doesn't make Bond any better at winning, Seticus. You said yourself that you were for Lestat, but it's because of what was said that turned you. Seriously, this is just for fun. Don't have a cow.

OK, here's a question for all the other geeks out there: are you a furry if you like seeing characters as gargoyles (and not foxes, wolves, etc)?
|
Example 1 Example 2 There would be more, but I can never find them. (restricted) |

Holy Diver has become a bane in my existence.
|
While watching some cable network's 20 best metal bands of all time, they played Holy Diver and after the show ended they played the video three times over in 30 minutes. Gahhhhhh!! The video also teases to action that never really happens. It also leads you to believe there's no one else in the band, but him.

Originally posted by Byte Chances are pretty high that Vince will lose. Donald has to keep up appearances and they could just as easily stage it that someone comes out and makes sure Vince loses. My last weekend was pretty dull considering I sacrificed it to study for my math test and ended up not even taking the test and getting ready to drop the class. Last Friday was Zoso's band's big event, which went over pretty well. I just wish people would let them play a full set some time (they were the last band and due to it already being late, security came in mid-set and turned off the power). I'll post more on this weekend when it's blown through. I have some plans, but I don't want to jinx 'em.

Richard just announced that they have replaced Shannon (who was only meant to be temporary anyway) with a new guy--Vinny Cardinale.
|
This guy: Supposedly Shannon will be filling in for the first few weeks and then Vinny'll be taking over. And yes, they are back at Southern this year. No Koroneburg. Speaking of which, I was at a science fiction society meeting last night and happened to pick up a couple 2-for-1 coupons for Southern; however, they are only usable the first weekend (i.e. a week from tomorrow). I have two coupons available. I'd like to go to opening, if anyone's interested. Zoso's willing to go, but we'll have to see when the day comes, concerning parking and such. Tickets--there's supposedly an early bird deal going on, buy 2 tickets, get a third free, but it doesn't show up on the ticket site--https://tix.extremetix.com/tix/SilverStream/Pages/pgIndex.html?siteID=904 The usual people have been recruited for entertainment this year (Boggards, Wives, Belles, Moonie/Broon!), I don't see Marlowe's Shadowe, though. Looks like there's a ton of new musicians playing this faire, specifically minstrels and Scottish bagpipers and drummers. Woot. |
