I've seen Good Bye, Lenin because it was a huge international release. I'll put Die Wolke on my list.

Yeah. I barely remember them though. And don't really feel like revisiting them.

My landlord decided that he's gonna come in and measure windows (I assume he wants to replace them) just as I'm working on #vbdosjam
I hope he's gonna get out eventually. Everything takes him FOREVER. I mean it.
Two years ago he was remodeling my bathroom for EIGHT months. For EIGHT months the guy was in my apartment! >:(
He also has some kind of a disorder. Seriously. He doesn't understand the concept of time. He vocalizes everything. And he repeat things.

You know, like the one at the end of Doom II, but for different games.
Here's RoboHitler. 61x60!
So monster parade video is a go. Now I just need to think how many games to include and if I should include all enemies from each game...
Like, I can include System Shock, for example. But most of its monsters aren't really interesting.
Should I include Realms of the Haunting? It has some cool stuff.
Should I include games that nobody cares about like Operation: Body Count?

I laughed all the way through, but The Royal Tenenbaums is waaay better. This one is just a fun goofy flick.
Replying to @GrundislavGames
Not to mention my favorite Anderson movie is probably Fantastic Mr. Fox. My second favorite is much hated Life Aquatic. :)
RT @YahtzeeCroshaw: This week, @gabrielenguard and I Drown Out Silent Hill. Turns out it's quite easy to drown out something silent. http:/…
RT @lazygamereviews: Haha, if you go to Mobygames and look at the trivia page for Red Baron II, there's an entry about my pizza adventure! …
Replying to @Resulka
Oh, man. My condolences.
Replying to @EHCB and @GrundislavGames
I never understood all the hate for Life Aquatic. It's hilarious! Maybe because I grew up watching Cousteau's show
Replying to @EHCB and @GrundislavGames
My least favorite is hands down The Darjeeling Limited because ZZZZZZZZZZZZZzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz...
Replying to @HenrySmola
As you should be...
YAY! I get to go to work super early tomorrow! Isn't life grand?
Replying to @MobyGamer
It was alright. I'm pretty sure it was whatever they had left over from last night mixed with some artificial eggs in a wrap...
.@mattbarton Your so-called easter egg scared the living shit out of me, sir. D:
Oh shit! The new Matt Chat episode gets personal! http://youtu.be/C6moukpWR2E

Snowing in New York again. Slid off the road and hit a curb this morning. Now one of my car's wheels is having troubles turning. :(
Replying to @AmayirotAkago
Oh, I can get it fixed of course. The question is "how soon?" Can't really get around without a car where I live.
Replying to @demodulated
I will. Didn't go to work because of it.
Replying to @TorbenFrost and @demodulated
It's a bonus, buy I'll probably lose my day off because of that. Not to mention a ton of money in cab fares.
Turrican II: The Final Fight #DosGameScreenADay
Replying to @AgustinCordes
A lot of DOS games are technically Amiga originals...
Replying to @demodulated
Man! I knew you were a good dude, but now I know that you're a great human being.
So today I'm without a car, without a phone and possibly without power for a better part of the day because a new water heater is coming.
Replying to @demodulated and @evilmiera
Man. I suggest you actually PLAY QfG games. They are awesome.
Possessing your troops in Dungeon Keeper was a very nice touch #DosGameScreenADay
Replying to @CGOApps
I manage to crash my car about every two years. I'm a shitty driver. :)
Replying to @demodulated and @evilmiera
It sucks, but it's playable.
Dungeon Keeper also has a pretty neat DOS installer with a guillotine raising as files get copied. :)
Oh shit! Witchaven 2 installer is definitely inspired by Westwood ones!
Replying to @AgustinCordes
Fuck yeah! My phone's dead, my car is dead, there's people working IN my house, but FUCK IT. I'm gonna enjoy my Monday!
Replying to @AgustinCordes
Fuck yeah! I'm using all my bad stuff as a legitimate excuse to skip work. Now I'm gonna relax. I'm turning this shit around!
A cool/creepy installation program for Witchaven II: Blood Vengeance http://youtu.be/TUX4lY1hzYU
Replying to @AgustinCordes
It's not that rough. It's only a car and a phone. I've had worse. Material things don't really matter in the long run.
Gonna take a walk in the snow and then check out the commentary track for The Act of Killing.
I'll pimp it out 1 more time: THE ACT OF KILLING is one of the BEST documentaries I've ever seen! Please watch it. Director's cut is better
Replying to @ArtfulGamer, @ben_304 and @demodulated
I love his comment on one of the most difficult parts :)
Replying to @demodulated
Never! I'm waaay beyond caring for petty shit like that. It's not worth it.

Replying to @NRasool
Except it's not directed by Coscarelli
Replying to @NRasool
I'm still interested. Co-written by Coscarelli and shot over several years in secret? That sounds like a Phantasm film! :)

Replying to @Fistipuffs
First season?
Replying to @AveTory
The movie is great. Its cinematography is sensational.
Replying to @AveTory
It's unusually dark for a 60s Soviet film, deeply emotional. BUT the 1st thing I think about is that birch tree forest sequence.
Replying to @AveTory
Criterion did a fucking amazing restoration of that movie last year. I need to buy that blu-ray.
Replying to @baddMoj0 and @AveTory
Erm. Criterion dvd is really old, not even anomorphic. And only includes one version.
RT @lazygamereviews: I'm sorry, but... This is unreasonably cool.
I'm playing an actual Sonic 2 cartridge on a DOS PC.
Let it sink in. http…

I have Kino's Stalker. I have a few issues with it. Need to get the Mirror. Nostalghia got issued recently too.
Replying to @baddMoj0
Yep. That's the one. One of my bigger issues is the surround mix. Kino probably wasn't responsible for it, but it's pretty bad.
