    Ghost in the Shell (2017)

    I had to talk myself off the ledge after this 2nd trailer. It could be ok, it could be good, it might even be great, but all signs point to "terrible".

    Houston, moving there.

    If anyone still wanted tickets, we were explaining the whole concept of the Super Bowl to an H1B working in our office and checked prices on tickets: nosebleed 600-sections in the upper rafters were going for $2200-plus per seat earlier in the week and only got more stupid from there. I can't...

    Houston, moving there.

    Again, I work downtown, so it wouldn't be so bad for me but I can imagine it you don't go there every day and have a place to park, it could be discombobulating. Easier to meet along Midtown/Upper Kirby/Montrose for folks if you are looking for something craft/hipster. Personally, I live SW...

    AssHat of 2016 FINAL VOTING ROUND!!!!

    Sadly, this can't be a tripartite crown for you, Scream, and Tolan. Oldscratch's meltdown doesn't deserve an award, it just deserves a ban, to be lifted whenever, if ever /shrug. Vote: Tolan

    Asshat of 2016 Voting Round 4

    Properly a point for another thread, I guess but LulzSect needs his own distinct, different award, since he apparently annoys so many people (the bananas don't bother me but still). Give him Bananaphone/Bananahat/Whatasmattayou? award but you are stealing votes from actual, honest, hardworking...

    EQ Next: #1 Next gen MMO

    I saw that as well. /cue mystery theme I will be the first to admit that I thought the Landmark/EQN approach was genius/brilliant/smart/at least economical in that they would have to build the toolset to build assets for the game, and that in monetizing them, that could provide another way to...

    Houston, moving there.

    I didn't see this thread before but I am in Houston and work downtown. There are hotels available now because they built the hell out of them for the last Superbowl; it was crunch time then but should be better this go-round, particularly since "Lower for Longer" is still driving corporate...

    Passengers (2016)

    The script for this was on the Black List and was floating available in places. You have the high-concept in the trailer, and obviously the movie could have changed on the way to the screen but there was lot more to it than what you saw in the trailer and it was a really good, if somewhat...

    Mist farewell thread

    Look, whatever Mist does or does not do on the forums, there are far worse posters. Here's a note to say hoping for good things for you, Mist, so everyone can have the best of both worlds: better things for you personally so then you will be doing fabulous things and won't have time to whine...

    The Promise (2016)

    We actually had the same meaning in mind; not that these folks are actually unable to feel unable to feel emotions in the sociopathic sense but so lacking in own lives they need to feed vampirically on the hardships and dramas of others.

    The Promise (2016)

    Some people can't feel real emotions in their own lives and have to go downer movies to actually experience life. Otherwise I can't explain the attraction to this kind of tearjerker melodrama. It looks like a technical masterpiece, though, and the cast is aces.

    No Man's Sky

    Someone pointed out They are doing some funky things with the planets' surfaces, I think, which is why they aren't giving us maps: It would ruin whatever tricks they are doing. Totally sucks, though, and I agree completely: Just make them in the ballpark of the first Mass Effect and we can...

    No Man's Sky

    Don't worry about the pre-order ship. I didn't use my pre-order ship at first to see how the game played without it. Once I got off-world the first time, stopped at a space station, switched out to the pre-order ship, then went to the nearby moon to the first planet. Of course, there I found...

    Well, damn. I want to think this isn't happening but this dude knows the score: I have my July '16 ticket at Rererolled.org. Thanks for everything, Draegan. Poor show at the end, though.

    GoT - Is Over, Post Your Drogon Sightings

    There was a point at which D&D were stalling, trying to come up with filler material to hold the show over until the Winds of Winter could get published; hence the Dorne and the Sand Snakes/Meandering around Mereen/Jaime endlessly in captivity. After season 5 was so mediocre, though, and GRRM...

    Butthurt white guys, an Asian virgin and an angry lesbian walk into a bar...

    Part of the unspoken awesomeness of that second video is all of the idiots snapping their fingers rather than clapping in support. Its like they tried to have the 60's again in the 90's but there were too many people alive who remembered the smell, so they just had to wait another 20 years...

    This Luclin music is amazing. Does anyone have a link/zip of the MP3s to save pulling them all off of Youtube again? All of the comments about what that expansion was intended to be really hit the mark. What is a nostalgia bomb, though. Just thinking about the the first three expansions...

    I bought a solo ticket for myself for Thursday midnight and tickets for whole family Friday at noon back in October. Then I totally forgot to take off work, which has now been riddled with people taking off for Christmas. Let's see how this goes.

    Interstellar (2014)

    IIRC, the concept is the same between Jonah's and Chris' scripts: Both of them go "into" Gargantua but not to the spaghettification point due to its supermassive size. In Jonah's script they then jump to the Chinese station built outside of time-space; in Chris' script/the actual movie: Just...
