    Marvel's Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.

    Exactly how many viewers of this show do you think will be people who haven't seen the movies? I almost see this as a perpetual commercial for the movie franchise. If it works out well and can hold it's own on ratings I wouldn't be surprised to see a reboot of the Mission Impossible TV show.

    Marvel's Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.

    I look forward to seeing the explanation for Coulson being alive... LMD Incoming in 3... 2... 1... I also see this as a place they can start pre-seeding all the stuff they were cramming into those post credit scenes. Unlike Star Trek this can be a series that goes from TV to movie and back...

    You realize the point is to be able to fit all possible controls you would need on an x-box controller right? I'm mapping this game to mine today

    The captain stepping on the gun and saying "really??" was possibly the highlight of the show for me.

    Supernatural

    My bet is they cure Crowley, which let's her take over hell. Crowley at that point still has power, but is no longer a demon. Because she'll want him dead he ends up in a "no other choice" scenario working with the Winchesters to protect his own skin. Hell doesn't get closed because then what...

    Iron Man 3 [Spoilers Everywhere]

    Just came in here to reiterate that I share the massive Nerd Rage over how they handled Mandarin , such ... nerd... rage..... Also not completely happy with how they did extremis, but that's forgivable. That Mandarin shit is NOT. WIth that said, if I did not have the familiarity with the...

    Neverwinter: PC

    Yeah, server took a poopy. From reading the blues comments on the patch notes it was supposed to be a nerf which would affect the "ogre romp" style foundry quests but supposedly other foundry quests "Shouldn't be affected". Of course that is being said by the person who doesn't want the...

    Neverwinter: PC

    My question would be how much it was nerfed by, and did they also nerf drop rates (which I am hearing they did)

    Neverwinter: PC

    Yeah, they're cracking down on the exp grinder foundry quests. But I see two ways to control this: 1) Have a team that manually runs through every Foundry quest/dungeon and approves/denies them. (costing a massive about of money, so.. probably not) 2) Give the mobs an "Emergency Teleport"...

    I have to agree, the wife and I played it over the weekend and had solid fun on the quests leveling. Also had fun in some foundry quests. Still remains to be seen what the end game will be like, or if they'll just lean on the foundry to keep people interested. For the crafting and AH obsessed...

    Hurm, possibly a philosophical question here.. Today I log in and see that the first rounds of AD/Gold sellers are spamming the zone chat in PE. People are, of course, bitching about AD/Gold sellers. But in reality, they're just selling AD for cash, which if you wanted AD you could also...

    Another thing is the fanboys of the game clinging to the "it's still just open beta" mantra. If they aren't gonna wipe the characters and start over, then your game has launched kiddos.....

    Right now I have gotten a rogue up into the 30's and i'm still roflstomping things. Took the cleric companion. Then my wife rolled a cleric and took the Man At Arms. That combo is letting just abuse shit. Never see a drop that isn't "well i'll be able to use that in 3-4 levels" which kinda...

    I liked this episode for nothing more than the amount the amount the Juliette story arc seems to be at nearing nearing a wrap up. I do wonder if moving to Tuesday is a good or bad thing. It's moving away from the dreaded Friday night slot (where Sci-Fi/Fantasy shows go to die) but now the...

    Boston Marathon Explosion - Today's Topics: Public Schools

    By that definition it can't be considered terrorism until whoever is responsible expresses the "particular political objective" they with to bring about. It could have just as easily been some insane asshat who wanted to be famous for killing people.

    Boston Marathon Explosion - Today's Topics: Public Schools

    I'm just hoping this will wake congress up enough that they can pass some serious bomb control legislation so this doesn't happen again. Maybe we should also post "Bomb free zone" signs around the Marathon next year?

    Justified - Season 4 starts Jan 8th

    Yeah, just watched the finale. Set up nicely for next season to be "Boyd's coming of age party". As now he has no reason to strive for the honest life, and every reason to show some "white trash pride".

    Supernatural

    I think the biggest problem I have with Crowley right now is that he is simultaneously berating people with the "You need to realize how insignificant you are" crap while also needing to personally handle up on pesky mortals who keep screwing with him. That and I swear the same actor also does...

    Yeah, this week was solid for a "part of the season long arc" story. I have serious doubts about next weeks, didn't Grimm just do a "Die in the game, die in real life" bit?

    I have to agree with Carl.. If you come up on me and I am armed and you're armed and I get the drop on you and tell you to drop your weapon the number one thing you can do to guarantee you get your ass shot is keep walking towards me WITHOUT dropping the weapon. He didn't say "Walk over and...

    I'm also with the "Govenor has evolved.... into Negan" folks. I figure with the addition of the older and children from the town now they will build out the prison and it will become more like it was in the comic. Next season will start showing the prison thriving and some minimal comments...

    I'm staring at owing a few large this year which blows, but it was because the wife and I had a good year financially so I guess it's a FWP. Also... living in Texas, so no state return. (another reason to love this state). I've used H&R Block for years, but this year i'm trying TurboTax as...

    I didn't mind this last episode as much. Nice to see them touch on something other than the stupid sleeping beauty story arc. But yeah, the actress playing Juliette needs to step up a little more. Or let a sex tape/nudes on her phone get leaked.
