Please excuse my stupid question. But something that I actually don't know: Is Brad a gamer? Or does he play a game once and a while? Or does he about never?

I'm only curious and if he does play videos I'd like to know what games or genres.

I guess he plays quite a bit. Here's his review of GTA 5:

I believe he's more an old school then new school gamer.

Brad seems to know his classic NES stuff pretty well. His old list of his NES collection shows some relatively rare and cult titles. Anyone who's a fan of 'Vice: Project Doom' is alright in my book.

Wait! Is this actually Brad's old LiveJournal page? Because there's a DVD collection list too, which is super interesting!

It was linked from his old MySpace page (his (public) personal one, not the Snob one). It still feels a little creepy to have looked over it, but I actually used the DVD list to compile a list of "to see" movies. I'd like to see him make a new one, and for VHSes, as well.

It's interesting to look back and see Brad's writing pre-Snob writing work. Apparently he used to be quite active on Diary-X back when it was functional...I haven't been interested enough to seek it out, though.

I wonder if Brad looked back at his DVD list now he'd agree with all his old ratings. Three and a half stars for Birth of a Nation!? Maybe it wasn't Brian who was the Slaver after all.

'Birth of a Nation' is a great film, and profoundly influential on cinema as a whole. Just because a movie's ideology is disagreeable doesn't mean it still can't be a great work of art. Consider the artists, authors, etc. throughout history who held the racialist views of their time periods: I can't discredit the awesome works of, say, Richard Wagner or H. P. Lovecraft because they were antisemitic no more so than I can do the same for the equally excellent 'Triumph of the Will'.

One can make a valid point about not being able to watch and/or like 'Birth of a Nation' because of its racist content, but it's impossible to argue that it's not an objectively important film.

Of course you're absolutely right. It just surprised me a little.
