Off-Topic

Anything you like, and I'll do my best to answer honestly.

Who's your favorite mod? :D

Do you think after a year+ of screened that having two game reviewers do movie reviews was the best choice for a movie website? Would having more movie-focused backgrounds have helped?

( just something I've been thinking about, I still love Screened, don't hate me! )

Are you an English Major as well as a Physic Major?

When you go to the movie theater with friends, do you make them sit up front with you, sit wherever they want, split up, or something else?

Just how amazing is Joey?

Are you starting to regret that you started this topic?

What's your favourite movie poster of all time? (irrespective of the film's quality)

Most puppies you've pet in a single day?

On a more serious note, what are your thoughts on the future goals of Screened.com and where it should go next? Is it in doing more live events? Building a larger community? More editorials? Garnering more web traffic? Doing more coverage or getting more interaction with the movie/TV entertainment industry? I'm just curious to know where you guys think the site should be over the next few years.

As a side comment, I'd love to see you guys make more friends of the site. Not that you or Alex aren't entertaining or informative enough or anything like that, but guest opinions/appearances or more interviews or voices from people outside of Whiskey Media keeps things interesting. Even for just podcasts, not to be extremely comparative, but every site could use a 5th wheel that isn't part of the staff, whether it's a Tested Gary Whitta, or a Giant Bomb John Drake or Johnny V.

How many licks does it take to get to the tootsie roll center of a tootsie pop?

Are you playing any game right now? If not, what was the last game you played? What did you think about it? Gonna come up with another better question later

I am pretty heavily into Fallout New Vegas at the moment, which I got during the big Steam Quakecon Bethesda Pack sale. I played hundreds of hours of it while working at Obsidian, but surprisingly it holds up pretty well, probably because I left before beta and everything was still pretty barebones. Lots to discover and explore. I'm nearing the endgame, which I'll probably poke around in before heading on to the DLC. Looking forward to Deus Ex, though, which I'll probably get if it reviews well...

All of them! (But you guys do do good work, so thanks for that.)

Well, keep in mind that I was never much of a game reviewer, either; I never reviewed anything for GameSpot and didn't have much in the way of a critical voice when I started here. I was primarily thought of because Dave knew me and he knew that I loved movies, because we used to watch a bunch of them together. As to how well it's worked out, I would have to leave that for you guys to decide. I think sometimes a bit of outsiderness can lead to interesting or different opinions, but it definitely would've been helpful to have PR contacts at movie studios to help us get into preview screenings.
