There used to be in game adverting in eRepublic. Sort of like google advert you could use to promote your articles. It was cheap and I used to do it to just see how many clicks I would get for a picture. Attractive women did good and two women kissing got the most clicks. But some strange things would get a lot of click through such as a baby changing room sign. Adverting got ruined in the game by Serbians posting porno pictures about Croatians, shame I like that feature.

I was asked how I met a country president and did not know who he was?
I was in Croatia on Holiday. We went to dinner in a small fishing village on the coast. After dinner we watched some local folk dancers on a dock. Police showed up everywhere and a limo pulled up. Everyone got excited and lined up, so I did and shook his hand. Maybe 20 people. He got on a yacht and took off. I thought he was a Croatian Millionaire. Right after I asked a policeman “who was that”. Most memorable part of night was the disgust look I got from the cop. I found out latter the president had a retreat on an island and the boat was the presidential yacht. I was just in the right spot at right time. I think if the policeman could of arrested me he would of.
It seems we have a similar taste about movies, since Pulp Fiction is probably my favourite. But just to name a few more, I usually enjoy anything by Tarantino or Yorgos Lanthimos. Also, the silence of the lambs, black swann, Downfall, Casino, Godfellas... And if I want a comedy, Monty Python´s The Life of Bryan. It doesn´t matter how many times I´ve seen it. I still laugh like the first time.
Sisterhood of The Travelling Pants. An outstanding coming of age drama that examines the challenges of teenagers who have no real challenges.
Oh yeah, I forgot about the ads feature. Pity they got rid of that
I'm afraid that the list would be too long 🙂 Léon, Fight Club, Pulp Fiction, Back to the Future, Braveheart, Snatch, 'Lock, Stock and Two Smoking Barrels', Fargo, Groundhog Day and some old soviet comedies with a few modern russian ones.
Well, there are tons of great movies outthere, and tons of shit movies aswell.
If you ask about my favourite is difficult. But, easy to schoose the best for me, no question it is Astartes from Syama Pedersen.
Why this approx 12 minutes short, fan made animation i choosed? Becouse its perfect, its breathtaking, it is a true milestone in fan made productions. This 12 minutes worth more than all the 6 new episode of starwars, 🙂
And not only for the hardcore Warhammer 40k fans, but anybody, just chek the reaction videos of moviemaker experts, hardcore fans, military personnels, girls, geek youtubers, whoever....
Even the story of making it is awesome:
It made by sinlge person! It takes more than a year to make it. During that his yt channel was hacked, but every part became better and better. After the huge succes of the Astartes, Games Workshop officially hired this guy to work for them.
Watch it, and if you did it, watch it again..and again....
Welcome in the grim darkness of the far future, where is only WAR!! 🙂

Anyway...Forest hump is a porn version of Tom Hanks' grat movie or just a mistype? 🙂
