    Wayward Pines

    Yea I'm understanding it better now. What was confusing to me at first was Po being in the same 'time' as the wife before she even got to Wayward Pines. But I guess Po was one of the original people Piltcher recruited to get people to deep sleep.

    True Detective

    It makes me wonder if the show would be better if VV and Kitsch had their roles swapped. VV just doesn't come off as any sort of badass no matter how many close up serious faces they use. Like I said last episode, the show suffers from too many characters.

    I think the problem many have is when he talks, it just doesn't sound serious enough for what the character warrants.

    At least on this forum they were. There was very few negative comments during the first few episodes of S1, maybe because it was a new show?

    I've gotten two as well, King Crush and Leviathan which were DE'd for Rag and Boom.

    Hearthstone

    All of these suggestions are still only workarounds for what will continue to be the most OP mechanic in the game and that is charge. But I'm not really sure how to go about fixing that other that introducing more cards (secrets) that directly effect it.

    True Detective

    I thought the episode was average at best. Velcoro is the best character on this show and it isn't even close (but still nowhere near Rust from S1). I thought the scene with the ex-wife was very good as well as the car conversation. I'm a little down on McAdams though but maybe it's because...

    We have done the same thing with out daughter. For the longest time, her bedtime was 8pm during the week and 8:30pm on weekends (although weekends weren't as strict). We started that when she was a baby, she would cry about it but eventually got into to routine of it. She is 8 now, her...

    Batman: Arkham Knight

    Didn't EA suspend sales of Simcity when it launched? Obviously there are some pretty widespread issues.

    I had success with both zoo and mage with Gazlow. Troggzor also works well here. I did face one mill rogue and he actually milled out himself by throwing away half his deck due to bananas.

    MLB 2015 Season

    That's the implication. If he bet for the Reds to win say 18 out of 30 days, does that mean that he expected the Reds to lose the games he did not bet on them? None of this matters, he's a flat out liar and he continues to lie. Heard an interview with Dowd (guy who did the initial...

    True Detective

    I thought it was pretty good. Like said above, it's impossible to compare to season 1 but it's only one episode. Remember that S1E1 starts with the dead girl (as opposed to the dead body being at the end of S2E1) so right off the bat you are off and running on the story. The first half hour...

    Since it was only 4.50, I picked it up anyway. I also picked up Castlevania: Lords of Shadow ultimate edition for about 7 bucks. So far the tally: Cities Skylines Alien: Isolation Strider Castlevania: Lords of Shadow I may be done unless I see something really cheap that I like.

    Has anyone played Strider? I loved the old game and it sounds like it's a decent remake.

    Hearthstone

    Deck building with specific cards/rules and specific dailies tailored for Brawl would be at least different enough and more of an incentive. It at least gives a viable third playing option other than arena/ladder.

    Hearthstone

    I agree with this. They made it pretty clear they are not trying to gain the competitive Magic player with this game, at least it will never be the focus. Most Nef losses result in blowing your load early without doing significant damage to Rag. Once you lose board control as Nef, its...

    Hearthstone

    I've only played 2, won both as Nef and it wasn't even close. It's only the first one but they can always keep doing different things to make it interesting. Other than the free pack there really isn't a ton of incentive to play it unless you are given a daily for it. It's something different...

    Wayward Pines

    I had some of this explained to me by my wife who has read the books. I'm not sure they'll go into it any further in detail than what they did last episode but I'll spoiler it anyway. The part that I have a hard time reconciling is when the wife was actually driving to Wayward Pines and...

    Inside Out (2015)

    I figure for the most part I'm not the target audience for this movie, my 8 year old daughter is. Luckily I think my wife volunteered to take her to this one (I took her to the Spongebob movie last).

    GoT - Is Over, Post Your Drogon Sightings

    I never thought it was suicide considering the exact same scene happens in the books. There are only two differences between the book and the show in this scene: 1 - It's Jeyne Poole not Sansa Stark 2 - The snow is much higher in the book.

    GoT - Is Over, Post Your Drogon Sightings

    Episode was average. I think it's funny where some expect Sansa to have this dramatic story arc and the show writers literally took a major character and turned her into Jeyne Poole 2.0. I thought the walk of shame was as well done as you were going to get, even if it was a body double...

    GoT - Is Over, Post Your Drogon Sightings

    That Shirleen scene was tough to take. Even the wife, who has read the books and isn't bothered by anything on the show (including the rape scenes) turned and said 'yea, that's a little much'. I get the point of it, I get even why he did it it just doesn't mean I have to like it. What sucks...

    GoT - Is Over, Post Your Drogon Sightings

    I think they just wrote the character differently than he is in the books. I can't recall the TV show even referring to him as the Knight of Flowers. Plus they don't even make him a member of the Kingsguard, the only time you see him is when he's in bed with a guy.

    GoT - Is Over, Post Your Drogon Sightings

    About Tyrion and Dany, what's interesting about that scene is for all the bitching that was done over Barristan's death, that scene probably does not happen if he's still alive as I can't see him letting Tyrion anywhere near her.

    Naked and Afraid

    Maybe I just never noticed it before but it seems this season the producers have purposely tried to pair direct polar opposites in personality together. Last week and this week the pair couldn't be any more different and it caused friction both times. I also agree that they are getting these...

    GoT - Is Over, Post Your Drogon Sightings

    I thought the same thing. When he was in the hut I turned to the wife and said 'that's a pretty shitty way to resolve killing off Jon' but thankfully that didn't happen. They are definitely setting it up to where the boy does it alone though.

    GoT - Is Over, Post Your Drogon Sightings

    Great episode, obviously best of the season and easily top 3 of the entire series (I still don't put any episode over Blackwater). Besides that scene with the dude raising his arms on the dock, I like how after Jon kills that guy with Longclaw, the camera pans up to Night King (I assume that's...

    Wayward Pines

    My wife has read the books and said that it seems they are skipping over quite a few things that were in the book so far. It's alright so far. It's amazing to me how it doesn't seem like Matt Dillion ages.

    GoT - Is Over, Post Your Drogon Sightings

    I think everyone has forgotten about Brienne, who is still lurking in and around Winterfall. I've had this weird feeling that Brienne is going to run into Stannis' army at about the same time Reek smuggles Sansa out (this may take the place of Stannis running into Asha in the books?)

    He's going to die now right, or does only the red viper poison his weapon? These Dorne scenes are pretty bad. That fight was a joke.

    The Dallas Cowboys Memorial (2015 Off-Season) Thread

    I heard something today that the theory is the Pats laid all their cards in that rebuttal because they don't want this to go to court because then they would be compelled to turn over a whole lot more shit (and potentially uncover more shit) in front of a judge. If you are planning a court...
