The giant death cyborg is actually a cat sized drone they have rampage through a miniature city. Not only does it shoot laser beams of fiery destruction, but it occasionally knocks buildings down by accidentally bumping them while turning.

Render unto Khanid the things which are Khanid's; and unto God the things that are God's.

One's poor quality is another's high comedy. To some, video-masochism is in and of itself an art.


It's as if the rest of the cluster thinks we are incapable of laughing at the same things...


Besides - this is a gutter Press article we are discussing, yes? I'm just making sure. In case others are starting to mistake this for news...

"I say that even as the holy and the righteous cannot rise beyond the highest which is in each one of you - so the wicked and the weak cannot fall lower than the lowest which is in you also.  And as a single leaf turns not yellow but with the silent knowledge of the whole tree, so the wrong-doer cannot do wrong without the hidden will of you all."

Are you kidding? That gives the movie all it's charm! It wouldn't ben 'Enter the Clone' if it didn't have it's weird sound effects.


Sure it can be comedic, but after a while it just gets annoying. And nothing beats a 60 Foot jovian woman on a rampage Big smile

I think we started to drift off to discuss horribly cheesey holoreels in general. Which is a great thing!

Best enjoyed while totally intoxicated or under the influence of something. Especially when you watch this and everyone around you suddenly looks like a giant and you hide under your bed because you're afraid they'll step on you or eat you whole. Good times! Lol

I like the holofilm about the dramatic lifecycle and sacrifice of an ant, I was deeply touched by it's dramatic plot.

Ah the irony! I smuggle holo-reels and Khanid Theologians are among my best customers. The superficiality of their public comments for the masses is only matched by their adherence to their vows.

I love those guys! They make me rich and they make me laugh.

I understand that casting has begun for 'Intergalactic War Z', starring the infamous actor Prad Bitt. Can't wait until that is released next year! (I haven't read the script but I rumor is that Tibus Heth releases a zombie-virus that infects all the Amarrians and then the rest of the galaxy... kind of a sour-grapes revenge thing that goes horribly wrong).

Insanity is not hubris, not pride; it is inflation of the ego to its ultimate - confusion between him who worships and that which is worshipped. Man has not eaten God; God has eaten man.

People actually waste their time with Impetus holoreels?

Well I, uhm... it is really not mine, you see. Or eh... technically, I guess, it is mine now, but I did not buy it!

Years ago I was doing some business in low sec, Devoid region, and on my way back, I stumbled upon 3 giant containers near a stargate filled to the brim with holoreels. Claimed them, as any decent merchant would do, and planned to sell them them.

But, as I often am stationbound for days with little to do, I decided to take a peek at the content of one of the reels. I am now about half way through the number of reels in the first container. Some of these Gallente sitcoms series just go on and on and on... Wait, I mean, it is not only Impetus productions in the collection, but also high quality productions from Nugoeihuvi, that I watch multiple times a day, nearly. Right, high quality. Tedious at times, but high quality.

I merely glance at the Gallente productions, such as "Trans-Parents", "Matter to Antimatter", "Three Thumps Up", "The Exotropes", "Only Pimps and Hats", "Wranglerware", "No Juice for Vicky" and... oh, I mean, I pay not attention at all to this obvious Gallente propaganda. In fact, I think I will trash this filth right now, as I universe will be better without it. Maybe later.

I actually want to watch Intergalactic War Z. Any movie starring Bitt and involving Amarrian zombies created by a Caldari madman just sounds like way too much fun to pass up!

Anabella, there was a rumor going around as to who would play the female lead anti-hero and an offer was made to cast Diana Kim. Apparently she was rejected as being too unstable for filming and 'posessing some serious anger management issues'...

She vehmently denied this of course and on her way out the door, got in her Kestrel and promptly vaporized the studios.

This set back the film schedule a bit...

If that rumor is true, then I should get Ms Kim a case of wine, for having the fore-thought to vaporize the studio.
