    Spider-Man: Homecoming (2017)

    I have to ask, do you have some sort of RSS feed set up to alert you every time someone mentions Civil War just so you can shit on it? I've seen it in multiple forums here, not just the Movie House, and I'm constantly amazed by how quickly you are able to pounce. I gotta take my hat off to...

    That's awesome. Unfortunately I live in an apartment so not an option for me. If I do ever get to design a room, that's definitely something I'll do though.

    Cord-Cutting, Or How to Stream your Way to Success

    I have an 8-bay Synology NAS with 2x 5-bay expansions. Each with a 3TB drive in it. 54TB before HDD sizing shenanigans :( Only about 2TB of it is empty right now too, although I could easily free up another 10+ if I actually put some work into it. There was a time when I had an unlimited...

    I have an LED strip on the back of my plasma with that "pure white" or whatever sales pitch the Amazon page said. I fucking love it. I can't stand to look at a bright screen in darkness outside of an actual movie theater, so having that little bit of ambient light behind the screen is...

    Cord-Cutting, Or How to Stream your Way to Success

    Oh shit, without even going to that reddit I can tell I am going to be in trouble when I do. That's a perfect label for me, datahoarder. My friend is always asking me why I would keep stuff like shitty movies, and I tell him to shut the fuck up and keep watching my Plex for free!

    Alien: Covenant (2017)

    Jesus Christ this was even worse than the first one. At least the first one had Charlize Theron to slightly distract me from how shitty the movie was. At least up until the point she couldn't figure out how to turn 90 degrees. This was an abomination from beginning to end, no point in...

    What quality are you looking to get? My collection is unfortunately a ton of 720p still, but going to start working on upgrading it soon. I think you probably belong to almost every site I belong to, but just in case, do you have, or are you looking for, Torrentleech or PassThePopcorn? Both...

    Rate Movies You've Recently Watched.

    2:22, watched it mainly because I love Groundhog Day type movies, and Teresa Palmer is hot as fuck. It wasn't really a Groundhog Day movie though. And not very good. So I was pretty disappointed all the way around. Might have seen a little sideboob of Palmer, but since I can see a lot more...

    @Crone oh yeah, I looked up what a remux is. It is essentially a 1:1 copy of the movie just with the extraneous stuff like video menus and such stripped out. So if you download a remux, you are essentially getting the absolute highest quality version of the movie (from that particular media...

    Computer Issues

    Well, I'm gonna be honest, I'm waaaaay behind on the curating thing, but it is mainly an anal retentive thing on my part. I prefer everything to be in the same nice neat format when I look at it. As you can see from that screenshot, it is mostly just however it comes down from the torrent...

    Changing it to Details gives me blank space off to the right, sure, but I detest how small a number of folders that ends up actually showing me at a time. That's why I use List in the first place. I mean, that's an option I suppose, but as you can see I already have 1172 folders in there. Not...

    I'll post this here because I don't know where else to put it. Maybe someone can help. I've tried everything I can think of, and Googling, but honestly I don't even know what the correct search terms would be. I've tried everything I can think of, but nothing addresses this issue. So as you...

    Jesus, somehow spent the last two hours watching dogs and then various other animals killing rats, and finally ended up here: Really expensive, but I could watch a video of this shit going off repeatedly no problem.

    Wonder Woman (2017)

    Invisible jet jokes aside, nope, she can mostly fly in the comics. It comes and goes, but in general she can. It is not clear if she can in the movies though, despite it looking like she hovered in midair at the end of this movie. They might hand-wave that away as something else. She...

    Rakka (2017)

    Am I the only one that thought the "angels" in Rakka actually looked kind of like demons? Other than the obvious black/dark vs white/light aspect, which is almost universally used, I was hoping we'd perhaps "sell our souls" (metaphorically) to the light guys for help, only to find out they were...

    I was looking at something like these, probably two sets of them. Amazon.com: Polk Audio Signature S10 American HiFi Home Theater Compact Satellite Surround Speaker: Home Audio & Theater EDIT: Or the S20s for $50 more a set. Not sure if it matters really to upgrade to those though. Doesn't...

    The Bad Batch (2017)

    I watched this last night, and man, I dunno. It was clearly VERY well shot and all that. I mean, I normally don't give a fuck about that sort of thing unless it is jarringly bad, but there were a lot of scenes that I even thought to myself, "Wow, that's really well framed" or whatever. But...

    Marvel's The Inhumans

    Yeah, that trailer didn't do much for me. The only things I'm really looking forward to are Lockjaw and a weird fantasy involving Crystal and her oddly hot hair with that black line. No idea why that's hot to me. Black Bolt shouldn't be able to be beaten down by cops, but I guess he's not...

    Wonder Woman (2017)

    Nope, not that I'm aware of (not counting intermittent bullshit here or there that some writer probably thought up for a couple issues). She essentially has the physical prowess and invulnerability of Superman, without the weakness to kryptonite AND magic that he has. And she don't give a fuck...

    Steam Deals and Digital Sales

    It isn't a complete solution since it only customizes your queue, but if you click on STORE in the Steam app and select Explore, there is a button to Customize your queue. That will let you deselect Early Access games from showing up there at least. Beyond that, I'm not sure of a way to just...

    Service Providers (Internet, TV, Etc)

    I don't know what the costs involved are, but Cox has business internet, which if it is similar to Comcast business is cap free. I've had business for close to a decade now because of that reason alone. Generally you pay a bit more for a bit less speed, but if your only other options are...

    The Fast Food Thread

    I'm not saying you were wrong about the fact that maybe they should have given you the Honey Mustard. But throwing your food at them seems a bit much. Particularly since they probably already had your money. But like I said, I wasn't there, so who knows.

    I dunno man, I don't know if I really agree with your reaction there, regardless of the rules. But, I wasn't there so who knows. All the McDonald's around here have signs that say extra condiments or sauces (can't remember the exact phrasing) cost extra. Pretty sure your situation would fall...

    Pricing out a potential home theater upgrade to go along with a 4K TV. I will have to upgrade my receiver, will probably go with that Yamaha Uber linked, since I'm a diehard Yamaha fanboi, haven't owned anything but Yamaha in receivers in over 30 years. I have a solid Polk 5.1 speaker setup...

Well, first off, if you want quality don't ever get something that is a BRRip/BDRip. That's an incredibly compressed rip, and even though it...

    I like The Habit but in my area (Sacramento) it is a bit more than those other two places. Not quite 5 Guys pricing, but closer. I agree on the fries, but to me the burger is slightly worse than Smashburger, mainly because Smashburger has a sourdough bun option that I fucking love, and their...

    King Arthur: Legend of the Sword (2017)

    I watched the first half hour and turned it off. Is there any reason to finish it? It isn't like I don't know how the general King Arthur mythos is supposed to end. I don't remember him being raised by prostitutes and running an underground crime ring though, but fuck it, right?!

    As far as my understanding of it, only in as much as Spider-Man is in the MCU, and he *could* make an appearance (but not likely), but nothing else will cross over. No one in the MCU will mention Venom or the events that happen in the movie, including Spider-Man himself. At least, that's what...

    I don't doubt that she has the capacity to be a giant bitch like a lot of hot women, but this is yet another example of "anonymous sources" bullshit.

    Just got home from seeing it. It was ok but not great. One of the weaker of the series I'd say. WAAAAAAAY too much forced humor. It missed about 95% of the time. Like, twin ghetto bots from #2 level of shitty. Nowhere near enough Optimus Prime either. Or Megatron for that matter. Little...
