  1. You were expecting better? on Do-It-Yourself "Dungeons and Dragons" Film Review · · Score: 1

    I am not a D&D fan, but was interested about the movie once the romours began. I was pretty excited and had high expectations because so many fans have been clamouring for it for so long. Once I saw that first commercial, I was digusted. How good a movie can it be if Marlon Wayans is one of the stars? He's a comedian, not an actor.
    It looks like no one at the IMDB didn't like it either.
    The director is new, and the writers don't have any qualifiable background to write a well themed, action movie.
    I say take the movie out of theaters and have Kevin Smith write a new script for it. I feel deep regret for anyone who wated their money on this movie.

  2. Gas is still cheapest/most available fuel on Why Do We Still Use Gasoline? · · Score: 1

    Despite the increases of gas and oil prices, it is the cheapest, most available fuel out there. There is a large amount of research in this field. Solar power is not efficient enough. Wind power is not stable enough. Wave power is not cost efficient. Nuclear power is cheap, but somewhat dangerous (in the eyes of the public). As for using electricity from cells for cars, to many batteries are needded to run a car for an extended period of time. Battery powered cars have existed for decades and the driving range of ~80miles of todays cars is not much higher than electric cars of yester-year.
    We first need to find an efficient, high powered, and safe portable storage scheme. Then, we can look for an alternate energy source such as using the excess H3 on the moon (article from space.com) which is enviromentally friendly when it goes through fusion. For now, we are stuck with fossil fuels and stuck with the cartel the Middle Eastern countries have enjoyed.
