Then I seriously don't want to know what you call motivated.

He might have pushed his moral code, but he's not insane. I also remind you that he was already largely in such a mental shape before the Joker arrived at the hospital, he just pushed him over the edge.


Errr... Are you trying to agree or disagree?

(and by the way, I believe in the original comics Two-Face is even less motivated since he turned a criminal simply because he lost half his face)

Once again, I think his insanity or gruesome levels could've gone up a few notches, there was nothing particularly freaky in there to me.


Considering that the movie is rated PG-13 in the US and that comic book movies are generally the popcorn type of movie, they already push it pretty hard. Not to mention that many of the most gruesome stuff happens off-screen.



By the way, is it just me or are you suffering from Hype backlash?

Too fat to be executed?

With increasing cases of obesity in Americans, does this suggest America's capital punishment laws will soon no longer be enforceable?

Ah, looks like a good loophole. To anyone on murder charges / with psychotic urges / running ReiserFS: chow down.

So saw the apartmentm it's not quite finished yet, the floor has to go in, I has photos though.
56k crowd beware.

This would be the storage room, which will likely end up with shelves on the right, and a server on the left. The big box in the top left is the fiber to the home connection.

Master bedroom with ensuite bathroom. Picture doesn't do it much justice, it's quite a bit bigger then that.

Ensuite bathroom

Second bedroom, to become the office. Paint chipped or something, but that has to be redone also.

Same room, view from opposite corner.

Hallway, first looking towards sitting room, exit and storage, and then looking towards the bedrooms.

Sitting room from just in the door, yay for balcony, and then from opposite corner showing kitchen.

Nice bright flat...balcony is cool and will add to the airiness of the place I suspect.

Got S.T.A.L.K.E.R to work though not sure how...installed, reinstalled a couple of times, same error, then all of a sudden it worked??? Got a bit of the Deus Ex to it...interesting.

Also got Fahrenheit for £6 and enjoying it...always wanted to play this but never got around to it...just started but so far it seems to be a cross between Silent Hill and Broken Sword.

I got it for free with a magazine :wink:

Farenheit can be interesting, until the point it goes completely "snooker loopy" and ends up just being rather silly.
