Why does crooked S.T.A.R.S leader have a picture of Rebecca?

(Shrugs shoulders).

Anyway, costume is unlockable in Deadly Silence.

Providing Leon is armed with shotgun and unloads in specific spot (area unimportant), camera will bear brunt.

Here's an example.

Waste of ammo yes, but cool nevertheless.

Trick actually debuted in Resi Evil: Director's Cut.

Resi 3

Collect each file in running order to get Jill's Diary.

It's a fairly interesting read.

Time for some art.

Random painting vs Judith with the Head of Holofernes - Lucas Cranach the Elder

Portrait holding prison key interests me.

Because it's Anthony van Dyck's Charles I at the Hunt wearing Ringo Starr's face.

Dude holding a Revolver definitely sews shit up.

Survivor

Ghosts 'n Goblins

Lily's bedroom also has portion of cover art used for Street Fighter Collection on Saturn.

Dino Crisis

Is it coincidence that Jennifer Campbell is the same age as Rebecca Chambers?

Hmmm.

Revelations

Jill and Parker board the Queen Zenobia.

Zenobia was a Syrian-based queen.

Fair enough.

Margaret Whiting portrayed evil witch of same name in Sinbad and the Eye of the Tiger.

Christian name of FBC agent Dario Barioni could be reffing Italian horror legend Dario Argento.

The Queen is Dead stages climax.

Final chapter is so-called as it refers to Queen Dido.

Title is a famous album by The Smiths.

Revelations 2

Moira Burton's tee displays As the World Burns.
Bolt Thrower's album The IVth Crusade features such a track.

Also.

I'll always need you. But for now... I have this.

This is a splendid ref to Bazza giving Master of Unlocking some acid rounds in original.

Jill: But how about you Barry?

How about you? That doesn't even make any fucking sense.

Said statement is an Ozzy Osbourne album.

The Umbrella Chronicles
A hunter picks up Ada's shoe.

First used in Disney's 1950 adaptation of Cinderella, the Grand Duke picks up leading lady's glass slipper when she flees from glitzy ball.

Bibbidi-Bobbidi-Boo!

Glass - The scoop and digest

19 years after Unbreakable, what is now referred to as the 'Eastrail 177 Trilogy' finally concludes.

James McAvoy - Kevin Wendell Crumb/The Horde
Samuel L. Jackson - Elijah Price/Mr. Glass
Bruce Willis - David Dunn
Anya Taylor-Joy - Casey Cooke
Sarah Paulson - Dr. Ellie Staple
Spencer Treat Clark - Joseph Dunn

Summary

Three weeks after Split, Crumb and Dunn (hey, that nearly rhymes) are captured by the authorities for causing a ruckus on the streets and sent to Raven Hill Memorial, where a certain Mr. Glass was committed all those years ago.

Dr. Staple's speciality is disappointing individuals who believe they possess superhuman abilities.

Mr. Glass escapes cell and teams up with Crumb, who after flashing mid digit at personality-changing machine; is free to unleash The Beast.

Uh oh.

Enter the Dunn...

Brittle

McAvoy is very good (introducing several more personalities), and Sammy L. puts in an impressive shift, but Willis is remarkably sidelined - to the point of almost being surplus to requirements.

Despite controversial track record, I actually thought M. Night Shyamalan would leave me so high I'd be flying.

Unfortunately...

One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest suddenly becomes a pseudo action thriller, and a rather shit one at that.

As soon as I clamped eyes on Staple, it was obvious that bitch would be dodgy.

Secret organisation covering up existence of superheroes?

Oh, members wear clover tattoo on wrist.

How subtle.

Is that the best asshole could come up with?

I'd like to say 'batshit brilliant' but no - decision is beyond fucking stupid.

Stan & Ollie - The scoop and digest

Jon S. Baird's biopic focuses on the later years of comedy legends.

Summary

By 1937, Stan Laurel (Steve Coogan) and Oliver Hardy (John C. Reilly) are at the top of their game.

Sixteen years later, double act embark on a gruelling tour of the UK to fund one last hoorah - a comedic adaptation of Robin Hood.

Despite falling out, they reconcile, and complete tour in Ireland; much to the delight of adoring fanbase.

Endearing tribute

Unlike the self-indulgent Bohemian Rhapsody, this was great.

Direction is tighter than a new pair of shoes and Jeff Pope's screenplay carefully balances humour with heart and drama.

Aside from looking remarkably like their real-life counterparts, Coogan and Reilly are excellent.

Nina Arianda and Shirley Henderson (as Laurel and Hardy's wives respectively), provide important support.

Rufus Jones is also good as theatre impresario Bernard Delfont.

Routines are immaculately recreated, as we get hard-boiled eggs and nuts from County Hospital and the genius of double-door.

At some point, Stan and Ollie's luggage accidentally slides down a flight of stairs, referencing runaway piano in 1932 short The Music Box.

Lovely stuff.

Video games Lost in Translation - Reinvigorated

Long long ago, there were a man who try to make his skill ultimate.
Because of his bloody life, it's no accident that he was involved in the troubles.

The disaster that had been on a small scale at first, rapidly spread all over the world.
Then a few people left for the center of that disaster.

Just WHAT?

Additional to their own victory quote, every character at some point will say:

All creature will die and all the things will be broken.
That's the law of samurai.

Pop culture.

Here's more.

I agree Haohmaru. This ominous feelings turns my spine turn to custard.

No Cham Cham. This is scarry.
Aaaah!

Has the evil king returned back?
It's something I can neither confirm or deny.

Huh, now is the time for all beginning!

Who? Who awakenes me?
These questions left unanswered are starting to annoy me.

Genjuro claims he will never be beaten by anybody who lives in confort.
So he's happy to get his ass handed to him by peeps living in comfort?
What an odd mindset.

Jubei asks if whoever can bear to his fatal attack.
Fatal is right. Fatally fucked up.

Same shit, different game.
This time, it's Mizuki who sends me to destraction.

I refuse to give my palm to such a crock because I'm one nasty fucker.

Ha! You no my enemy!
That's what you think...

Killing that four people so everything will be successful and getting wish granted sounds great, but sadly, I must decline.
Ha ha ha.

I said you before, didn't I? Pass away!
But if memory serves, I said you before, didn't I? Go quickly!

They can never back here, again.
Who's 'they'?
Oh well.

What a shame Jubei didn't slam fellow as 'ill mannered', as that would be really ballsy.
As it is, insult of i'll mannerd remains limper than an erection shy pensioner.
Here I go!

It's not much of I expected.
No Wan-fu. I expected of it's not much.

Ahead of duel with clone, I warned Earthquake rival would taunt 'You'd better on a diet!'
