The 11th year? As in the 2011th year? 2000 years, no big difference...

Classic line from a classic movie (known as "Flying High" in Australia) but why the post?

 

Speaking of Australia...

Duke Nukem really has inspired Croteam.

Whilst I like blood and gore, it just doesn't look very good in Serious sam 3, it looks rather childish actually. The blood just doesn't look right.

Lynx 'sexist' sporty ad banned

 

A Lynx ad depicting oiled up women explaining the rules of rugby in skimpy clothing has been banned by the standards watchdog for objectifying women.

 

The Advertising Standards Bureau received a number of complaints arguing the online video made by Soap Creative was sexist.

 

One of the complaints said: “This advertisement implies that women are nothing more than mere sex objects and that it is appropriate for men to stare at their body parts without remorse. I believe that this ad has been grossly influenced by the pornography industry and the hidden hype surrounding girl-on-girl pornography. I find it offensive that this attitude and "fantasy" has been given freedom to be shown on television.”

 

Another complainant added: “This ad is blatantly sexist against women. It depicts women playing rugby but styles them in skimpy outfits indicating that a woman's place in sport is as sexual entertainment for men rather than as equal or legitimate participants.”

 

Unilever defended its actions by saying that the video was only posted on its YouTube channel and that it was meant as “fun” and “tongue-in-cheek.”

 

“Unilever has aired the Video exclusively on its Lynx YouTube channel. We have been careful to restrict the Video on our Lynx YouTube channel to users over 18 by way of using the YouTube age verification function soon after launch,” the company said.

 

“We can confirm that the Video has not been aired on TV as part of an advertising media buy. It may have appeared as editorial content on TV at the discretion of news suppliers but we have not been able to find any evidence of this.”

 

But the ASB ruled against Lynx, banning the ad as it considered it discriminatory against women.

 

“The Board considered that the advertisement is clearly shot to emphasise various physical attributes of the women – with lingering shots on the women‟s breasts, groins and bottoms. The Board considered that the advertisement depicts the women as sexual objects. The Board considered that the „fantasy‟ element of the advertisement takes away any suggestion of the women actually being presented as sportswomen and increases the impact of them being presented as sexual objects.”

“It depicts women playing rugby but styles them in skimpy outfits indicating that a woman's place in sport is as sexual entertainment for men rather than as equal or legitimate participants.”

 

This wouldn't have been a problem if they were netball girls, because as we all know they bounce around in tight skimpy outfits.

Oh man, it's Chuck Norris!!!

[Plok 319]

If Chuck Norris would REALLY log in to WoW, the servers would be empty instantly.

[Guest Rabbit]

Might as well throw this up.

[Malevolence 6]

Great job Zee! I hope you do more of such videos! You're awesome!

 

 

On another news, Serious Sam 3: BFE is out!

[Plok 319]

Looks badass, but I'm not at all impressed with the facial animations.

Not really, unless if all other fighter stars (or even expert players) log in for hardcore matches. What about Jackie Chan and Jet Li? (forget about Bruce Lee though)

 

That reminds me of one of the best epic fights of the 20th century.
