I didn't like it nearly as much as the original. I suppose the fairy/elf theme was the reason. Just seemed a bit silly.

Lovecraft did deal with truly fascinating subjects, but let's face it, the guy wrote like Philboyd Studge*. Whenever possible he avoided employing character dialog because, by his own admission, he simply had no talent for it. That's why so many of his tales are more than ninety per cent purple...

You'd be dead in space before you knew what happened. Planets in our solar system are another matter. I've seen several well researched movies, like Cat Women on the Moon, where there are plenty of comfy caves with lots of oxygen to be had at tropical temperatures, which allows the comely female...

Nope, it's not just a more accurate motion capture for facial expressions, it's full body kinetics, and technically far superior to BVH and other similar formats. I suggest a visit to Image Metrics to read up on some of the technical data. ( Biological model morphing/dynamics software has been...

This is a clip of Emily, a rigged 3D model created by Image Metrics using an entirely new method that far surpasses conventional motion capture in realism. Remember, this is a first gen finished product, and spooky as it is, it will almost certainly improve drastically over the next few years...

The old Soviet Union was a red fascist police state responsible for slaughtering more people then even the Nazis at the murderous height of their power. Contemporary Russia is just a neo-fascist plutocracy attempting to disguise itself as a nation state. In order to insure peace on this...

I very much enjoyed the posted Pirates video. But watching the sfx crew blow up that beautiful frigate miniature made me wince. My father was an electrical engineer. When I was in primary school he was offered a job with Universal studios, but my mother refused to even consider the notion of...

Strieber's new age philosophy is a genuine reflection of his world view, not a sop to his fans. He has a long history of involvement with so called "occult" schools of the Gurdjieff and Balvatsky type that far predate the publication of Communion. As far as appearing on the Paracast is...

Someone said they were looking for a decent e-book reader. Foxit is free and much less bloated that any of the proprietary Windows Adobe PDF programs. You can get it here: http://www.foxitsoftware.com/pdf/rd_intro.php

Bizarre interview. The man is either totally delusional or a very clumsy liar. Obviously a vanity press author trying to push a manuscript not good enough for a commercial publisher to touch. Money isn't everything; some people are motivated by a desperate need for recognition. And once again...

I'm a bit surprised that no one commented on the most important fact revealed by this video: that stocky, middle aged women should never wear shorts and clingy tops in public. Oy!

Every contemporary nation state on earth was founded after genocidal conflicts. Why pick on Americans?

I've made this request a couple of times myself. Farrell is one of the few current UFO researchers who isn't committed to any particular brand of orthodox cant, although some of his theories relating to Nazis and flying saucers strike me as being a fantastic stretch of the facts beyond the...

I own the full video. It's an amateurish, claptrap mess of a commercially produced film in the Blair Witch genre, and similarly a work of fiction presented as fact. I guess you can label it a mockumentary, if you're feeling generous. The Clip Brian has posted is a promotional excerpt from...

What happened? I thought I was logging into the Paracast forums but find myself snared in the ATS boards.

Greer doesn't give interviews, he grants audiences. The only difference between Greer and Bruce Goldberg is that I suspect Goldberg knows he's full of shit, while Greer believes his own delusions are divinely inspired gospel that must be shared with the ignorant masses. (What the hell...

I don't believe the no-dig agreement had anything to do with violating sacred Indian burial sites. As I recall, the NIDS team did bring in a backhoe for some excavating to see what response the action brought. Maybe they just didn't dig deeply enough.

There's something about Bigelow that strikes me as not being kosher. Over the years he's been subject to a great deal of criticism for withholding information gathered from the studies he's financed. He's also rumored to have strong ties to government intelligence agencies, although I don't put...

Uh....I don't believe Packrat meant any insult in his post, he seemed to be challenging an ad hominem argument. The proposition that any assertion of fact is absolutely true because it has been made by someone whose opinions you share is not a valid argument. Not that it makes much difference...
