    Jumanji: The Next Level (2019)

    Yeah, she's a baby doll. This movie was fun. The Rock, Kevin Hart, and Awkwafina being able to act out their players was actually pretty well done. If you enjoyed the first one you will like this. I have a soft spot for the Rock, I mean he is the People's Champion!, so was bound to check it out.

    Austin, Texas

    I've been on Rainey since 2011 and it really comes down to crowds, tourists, and traffic. We are lucky to he on the lakeside of a condo at the end of the street so you at least can drown out the noise. It is convenient if you want to grab a bite, go for a run or bike, or get on the lake...

    Depression

    So my visit with the psychiatrist Thursday was interesting. He felt I had done a pretty good job thinking through the problem and definitely checked several markers for ADD (not so much hyperactivity though). He prescribed Adderall XR, 5mg and asked me to vary dosage for a few weeks to see...

    NFL 2019 Season: It's Tricky!

    The argument is that defense was blocking for a punt and didn't realize it was a fake. Weak excuse IMO...play was a pass, that was some egregious PI. To not call it for that reason sets the wrong precedent.

    Depression

    I've actually had pretty consistent anxiety and depression since leaving college. This culminated to panic attacks and a few trips to the ER per year until I was prescribed Paxil. As mentioned above, Paxil wasn't a great fit. Yes, you didn't feel worried so much and in-turn were less...

    Feels like the show is really coming into it's own. Enjoyed tonight's episode a lot, kinda sad there are only 3 left this season...story gets so good I wanna watch it all now!

    Terrible Jokes Thread

    Anne Frank makes it to heaven and drops a bomb of a Holocaust joke. St. Michael is almost speechless at how terrible it is and professes how horrible the joke was and that it in no way was funny. Anne replied, "guess you had to be there."

    College Football 2019 - 2020 Season

    Man, 1 second can be miraculous at Auburn! War Damn Eagle! To be fair, we wouldn't have been able to stop Tua with Bama's receivers tonight...especially Waddle. Mac Jones played a good game as well, but isn't quite as accurate. Super fun game! Happy we were on top when time ran out.

    Sonic the Hedgehog (2019)

    I've heard the timelines for toy making typically spool up ahead of a movie's release so they can be available at launch. I wonder if they done goofed with the original and there are copies of the derpy Sonic toys out there in a 3rd world country now.

    Doctor Sleep (2019)

    I think this was gonna be a touchy movie to direct for megafans regardless. On one hand you have Kubrick's fans and the other King's. Everyone wasn't gonna walk away happy.

    Doctor Sleep (2019)

    Just got back from the movie and I must say I was pleasantly surprised. The one major negative is it has a long runtime (something like 167 minutes) and felt like it might have been better suited to a mini-series or something. Worth a watch though, 7/10.

    Yeah, I don't care for Alabama one bit, but Tua is a good dude and genuinely talented. Don't like to see people get hurt. He played with a lot of heart tonight.

    His Dark Materials

    There are topics in this series that religious fundamentalist get completely rustled over. They get upset likely because religion has, does, and undoubtebly will be used for ill-effect and people have a hard time reconciling that. As a Christian I consider it entertainment with an honest, if...

    Jojo Rabbit (2019)

    I caught this Sunday and agree it was a really good movie. I went in expected more silliness, but it turned out to be a pretty real take on WWII from a little nazi-in-the-making's perspective.

    College Football 2019 - 2020 Season

    Yeah, as an Auburn grad that is sorry as hell...don't like seeing that. Downward spiral for us (defense spending more and more time on the field, offense unable to execute). LSU is a solid team...wish them well.

    College Football 2019 - 2020 Season

    Yeah, we have a freshman QB. He is very hit and miss (literally Jekyl and Hyde during season opener against Oregon). He's made some bad plays and has had some major games to cut his teeth in. I really think how he plays next year will be the barometer I measure Gus by.

    I don't think that was a catch...bobbled the ball, foot on the line. No review though so here we are. Tie into the 2nd quarter. Looks like a good game!

    The Fermi Paradox -- Where is everybody?

    When you say life is more probable with weaker stars I assume you mean red dwarfs and mean this due to their long life (trillions of years vs 10-12 billion of the sun) and being vastly more common than other stars (>70% of all stars). The downside is the habitable zone is super close to them...

    The Fermi Paradox -- Where is everybody?

    The arguments that a sustained 1g acceleration gets you to near relativistic speeds is valid. What is being ignored is the amount of fuel to do that is astronomically large. Lets assume you can make this craft impossibly small (1000 kg) traveling at 0.5C has almost 14 million Terajoules of...

Always remember that while you may not find work 100% lined up with your MOS, there are actually a lot of transferable skills that are taught in the military. I had a blackhawk...

    It was to space movies what 'The Thin Red Line' was to war movies. Lol, maybe not THAT bad but yeah it definitely isn't great and as others have said not what the viewer expects from the trailer.

    <derail> From that interview...Straub's "Ghost Story" is probably my favorite horror novel. It is VERY slow to start, but the idea behind the book was rather original. I really enjoyed it. Another was "The Elementals" by Michael McDowell (who actually grew up in the same small town I did and...

    I thought this was (marginally) better than Part I, not deserving of the bashing it is getting. Grown up Ben and Mike were a bit dry characters, but the others came of well enough. The final fight I thought was actually well played, consider Pennywise isn't out for the coup de gras, but...
