Zjeraar: When I think of black comedy I think of a biting satire, or a comedy where laughter is the result of cynicism, something which seems to be lacking in Evil Dead II, but can be seen in Very Bad Things, which, although a mediocre movie, has it down to a science.
Black comedy can be satirical in nature and / or revolve around death and other morbid topics. So you're right in that it lacked satire, but it did all the same do a good job on the morbid humour.

Oh and if anything Ghostbusters needed more black comedy.

I'm going to say these two were both excellent, just far different tones and story types. In a matter of fact, doing the same story as the first one would have turned out sucky, so I'm actually glad they did it that way.

Black comedy is tough to pull off properly. Very Bad Things, was a pretty good example, as were The Big Lebowski and Postal. (Postal was a Uwe Bolle film, watch it anyways)

First off, this thread is great in so many ways, so thanks for making me laugh.

Secondly, Chicken and Waffles... I was blown away.

I first learned about Chicken and Waffles while watching "Heroes". Hiro Nakamura has a bit of a fetish for this meal. I was recently in west Texas, and yes these are on the menu, and yes it's an incredibly good dish (your arteries will hate you forever, though).

I can't imagine being alive for very long after eating one, but I think it would be worth it.

Kind of like this shady convenience store here in Albany. They have these sandwiches with a Jamaican Beef Patty stuffed inside it, and you can not find something more delicious when you are drunk. It only costs like 3 bucks, and if your willing to shell out another 50 cents it comes with bacon. I am always willing.

"Delicious Foods While Drunk" Now THAT is a category worth exploring! (ps, when it comes to bacon, I am also willing)

HomerSimpson: Fortunately, my personal game list does not include anything with a '3' in the title. HoMM3 is surely the exception that proves the rule, though.

orcish- I'm not asking this to be a smart ass, but are you sure you don't have the 'Hide Pregenerated Characters' box clicked on start up for ToEE? I ask because I started a neutral good party last week using only pre-gens. Maybe it's just that there aren't enough for certain alignments?
Yes, but you see, HoMM3 isn't the third game in the Might & Magic series, so it doesn't really count despite having a 3 in the title. Also, it's a very entertaining game.

But HoMM2 was better:)

No really, the music made it truly stand out.

But it was the 3rd game in the Heroes of Might and Magic series which is a completely different game series than Might and Magic.

Nah, awm just tendin', everyone knows pancakes are less then or equal to √(waffles^7)
Pancakes are waffles and both are just cake.

They are essentially breakfast cake.

Humans eat deadly, dangerous foods.

Deadly... Dangerous... Damned Delicious...

This will lead to our utter demise :-(

Oh, I agree. Predator 2 isn't a bad movie at all. Similar to Alien/Aliens, I appreciate that they did something different in the sequel. I just happen to have a preference for the original. May it was Ahnuld's oscar-worthy acting. :-)

Not completely different series, different game-play, same series. I mean, how are you supposed to know that the Inferno faction is made up of aliens instead of demons if you haven't played Might and Magic 6?

Not sure, I've never played any of the RPG Might and Magic games, but I've played all the Heroes ones. All the towns kinda made sense to me, especially with the names they were given.
