Gnostic: GoG does not sell regional lock games (i can be wrong), so I doubt GoG will sell regional lock movies anytime soon.
There are 2 games that can't be bought by german IP and 1 game that can't be bought by australian IP ...

Actually, if you count the uncensored version of The Witcher II that has been regionally blocked a loong time ago, there are two games that can't be baught with Australian IP, the number of regionally locked games by now is 4 afaik.

darthspudius: TBH star wars fans are just sad little goblins for the most part. They're never happy about anything. Star Trek fans atleast argue logically lol.

snowkatt: no true fan fallacy ? ;p
a true fan is never happy and always complaints ?

you should see the transformers fandom like a pack of howler monkies sometimes
and completley and utterly fragmented
just G1 alone is broken up in at least 14 different fandoms

G1 cartoon only
G1 cartoon season 1 and 2 only movie and season 3 are disregarded
G1 toys only
G1 84 and 85 toys only
G1 marvel Us comic only
G1 marvel UK comic only ( thats half reprints of the marvel US comic )
include beast wars and machines
dont include beast wars and machines
include the 3 japanese series
only include 1 or 2 of them
like the japanese series
hate them utterly
G2 counts !
G2 doesnt count !

and thats just G1 !

im not even counting the rest

the result is a huge fractured mess and th only thing they have in common is liking robots in disguise

and least the star trek and wars fandoms aren't fractured
Sadly it's to be expected when you get Geeks, Nerds and Fanboys pooled together. I honestly have yet to find a single fandom that isn't prone to stupidity and pointless arguments over non-sense.

Godzilla fandom you have fans that only count the japanese versions as being definitive, fans that only count dubs as definitive, fans that count both, fans that don't mind the 98 Godzilla but don't see it as a Godzilla film just a Kaiju film, others who think it should be buried and forgotten, and some who like it and thought it was better then the 2014 film.

Oh then there is the Super Sentai/Power Rangers fandoms.. good lord do they ever get stupid especially the Sentai purists who love to argue how the Sentai is better because it's more serious and having personally seen almost every sentai from the original Himitsu Sentai Gorenger to Ressha Sentai ToQger I can tell you that is not the case..at times it's actually more sillier like with Gokaiger or Kyoryuger but in those case they will say that the Power Ranger counter parts changed the tone of the Sentai.

Then there's the arguments from both sides with the Sentai fans saying that Power Rangers should just do straight copies of the original Sentai series and bitch when the Power Rangers season is too different from the Sentai they are adapting while PR fans bitch that it should be the opposite and complain when the Power Rangers season is too close to the Sentai.

Oh then there is the long time Marvel vs DC fanboy nonsense.. honestly though as I said it's to be expected since more die hard a fan is the more obsessive they are and when it comes to fandoms and fan communities they tend to be the truly to the point of irrational behavior and attitude obsessive ones.
Just watching a youtuber playing Hotline Miami 2. Now I want the soundtrack.

That is some awesome old school electro-industrial goodness

transformers is one of the most fragmented i have ever seen though because there are so many variations and series unto themselves
and you will always find fans of every permutation
some very vocal some not so vocal
those 16 variations of G1 i mentioned arent even all of them

and i havent even counted all the other series

marvel vs dc
i am actually a "die hard" marvel fan i prefer marvel over dc
always have
always will
if you give em 2 stacks of comics one marvel one dc i will make a beeline for the stack of marvel comics and reread all the marvel comics three times before i fish the batman comics out of the dc stack

however i dont really read anything current from marvel anymore
all the damn reboots have pretty much demolished by interest

the final straw was killing peter parker and replacing him with ocks mind in his body
and people dare to bitch about the clone saga and ben reilly
at least ben didnt kill peter or took over his body
ben was just a genetic copy who turned out to be his own person after all ( im a fan of spiderben does it show ? )

regardless i think that there are fandoms out there who arent a pack of howler monkies
we just have to find them

maybe the teddy ruxpin fans ?

why am I surprised by that some mostly forgotten 80's toy has a fandom. I really should have known better by now..given that their are MLP fandom, Snorks Fandom, Littlest Pet Shop Fandom, hell Manos "Hands of Fate" one of the worst films ever has a fandom.. to name a few. I swear they should change Rule 34 from if it exists there is porn of it to if it exists there is a fandom for it since truth be told it's more accurate.

snowkatt: because its an ungodly difficult undertaking that eats up vast amounts of times
when it doesnt work its awfull

when it does and the animation is smooth as all out its amazing
I was just thinking about the original Clash of the Titans movie. The models may have looked unrealistic with their jerky movements, but that film had a certain charm the remake couldn't get close to, despite its visual affects being as impressive as they were.

The original felt... epic! You could feel you were watching an adventure, and not just a bunch of action sequences strung together. Even now, I can remember far more moments from the classic version than I can from the remake... and I'm battling to think of even one now! OK... the scorpions scene... and that's it!

I'll never knock that movie, Medusa was one creepy beast. Harryhausen really took it to the next level with her.
