    Shroud Of The Avatar - Shit Went Persistent

    Yeah, they're tards and that's total bullshit. There were clue books and quite a few magazines (I mean TONS) which every month included maps, cheats, etc... I remember my 6th grade science teacher asking us for spoilers for Space Quest, and a bunch of kids sitting around tables at lunch in the...

    Doctor Who

    Just a brief look at his website he seems to do quite a few conventions. And damn, pretty fucked up that some thug kids nearly crippled him a few years back. I still wonder if the utter lack of information and previews means we are in for some big surprises in 3 weeks.

    After a shower and running this through my head I realized it takes a very big man to admit when they're wrong. So I'm not going to do it.

    A brain teasing probability puzzle

    Read the original post. We're talking about 3 choices, not 100, not infinite. If there were more than 3, you'd be right. Because the wrong choice would stay through the elimination despite always being wrong. I should have said a 3 sided coin, that might have made it more simple for you to...

    A brain teasing probability puzzle

    So if I asked you if a flip of a coin was 50/50, you'd say yes? But then I tell you the coin once had 100 sides, and were down to just two. That changes the odds?

    A brain teasing probability puzzle

    Or they're trolling. But I'll assume they're just very Human. They also get caught up on the idea that the box they think they have a better chance of winning by switching to now has exactly the same chance of being right as the one they originally picked. It's a new scenario, nothing that...

    A brain teasing probability puzzle

    They don't get it. It's a binary choice. If you flip a coin once, just once. And you say heads in the air. Changing your answer when it lands does not improve your odds without new information. It's always 50/50.

    Ender's Game (2013)

    Heinlein was a nutjob too. Many great writers are. I don't give a fuck about their personal views, just the fiction. But I hear you, Qhue. Just pirate the motherfucker.

    Well considering the Ultimate Swear Word of Power in the movie was "Barbara Streisand", I expect big things from my special abilities.

    Inglourious Basterds

    That was in the mid 90s he talked about doing the Vega Brothers and he always said then he wouldn't do it without Travolta and Madsen. But by now the Vega Brothers are 20 years older and added another 100lbs a piece.

    He reformed it. He's now called Norma or Jack the bodiless. Who gives a shit? It's the X-Men movie franchise. Grab some popcorn and enjoy.

    Inglourious Basterds

    What movie are you talking about? Also he didn't direct True Romance, that was a Tony Scott film. They even minimized his writing credit in that film until he became popular in the next year with Pulp Fiction.

    Inglourious Basterds

    He has moments of Directing genius though. Especially in Pulp Fiction, RD, and Kill Bill. Pulp Fiction, sticking the camera in the trunk. Leaving it at the door while they go off and talk about Uma because they're a few minutes early. Etc..etc.. He's a Directing genius when he spends...

    Inglourious Basterds

    Of course True Romance counts, and should be near the top of any fans list. It's okay to like this film, but there's PLENTY of Tarantino fans who think this movie just plain sucked. He had a great 15 minute idea as a "Fuck you" to Tom Hanks and Saving Private Ryan and it turned into a...

    Into The Wild

    We must have seen different movies. I thought this was a well thought out documentary. It was daring, and a very rare inside look at the day to day life of a bears lunch. Maybe I'm thinking of Grizzly Man, or Into the Wild Special Edition.

    Until this season I always watched this with the wife after football. This season sucked so bad I stopped. It felt like a day time soap opera or something. Will she? Wont she? Will they? Wont they? Uh oh. She said if last nights ep was terrible she was going to stop too. Now she...

    Inglourious Basterds

    The thread is YEARS late. But yeah, that movie sucked dick. Fucking awful. An inch away from his own personal snuff film. Half surprised he couldn't find a way to sneak the n-word in somewhere. The only redeeming feature is it introduced Americans to Christoph Waltz.

    Saints row 4

    Awesome DLC. Wish it had been a bit longer, but it's really fucking funny. Great post-credits type of missions and finally explains what SR3's DLC would have been about. The in-mission wall breaking comments and the return of Zimos (finally) are the best parts. No Johnny Gat fyi.

    Doctor Who

    It was the same thing in the states a few years back. ESPN/ABC/DISNEY all converted to have 3D channels, pimped the hell out of it and the TV's. Totally flopped. Our stores used to have entire aisles devoted to 3D Blu-Ray's, now it's the end of the Bluray aisle, or the bargain bin.

    Clara's reflection in the orb is Susan Foreman. That's pretty much all I could focus on :P Would be nice to be right about one theory every 50 years... Also loved the spray paint "NO MORE" when the Doctor says I fought for peace in a Universe at war.

    Wavx was my best this year now that I look at it. They announced a 4:1 when they were trading at .38 cents so their riyhad contracts were totally ignored due to poor perception on the company. The next day the stock is at .89. This one was a no brained. Sold at 1.70 less than a month later...

    The only two things I've ever heard about Ecclestone's leaving. 1) He has said many times very bluntly that he did not like the production. Everyone from the actor to a stagehand has an equal role in the "company" and someone or someones treated the lower end staff like shit. 2) He did...
