    Dyson Sphere Program

    Well, this popped up on my Steam front page Friday, and after about 30 seconds I bought it. Spent the entire weekend playing or at least thinking about it. Came here to see if any of you guys had played it, and of course I'm late to the party. This is exactly the type of game I have been...

    Torrents

    Something is wrong with your system clock or the torrent program or a virus from using uTorrent or something. It says it is 1969. That's where I'd start looking for a problem. EDIT: Forgot to quote you so you'd get a notification @TecKnoe

    Justice League (2017)

    I'm sure I'll get crucified for this, but I have a +10 min skip button set up on Kodi, and every time I decide to put Man of Steel on to watch, I immediately hit that button twice to skip all the Krypton bullshit, and it takes me right to the spot where Clark is on the fishing boat and...

    The Fifth Element (1997)

    Most of his albums tell stories. Even his first solo album, Fatal Portrait, has several songs in a row that make up a story. Abigail is another fantastic one, although Them is probably my favorite overall.

    Monster Hunter (2020)

    I get the silliness of arguing this sort of thing, but since we're doing it, might as well continue. I enjoy these kinds of hypotheticals. You made an assumption right off the bat about beast armor being at least as hard as tungsten. I could maybe agree with that assumption if we're talking...

    Monster Hunter (2020)

    The thing that always bothers me about movies like this (well, obviously not the only thing, but the one "real life" thing) is how magical creatures just shrug off modern ordinance. Yes, I know, "magic"...but dragons probably aren't any more dense than a tank or a battleship hull, even with...

    What tickles your pickle

    Real lazy men that live in California and are sick of decades worth of some of the world's shittiest traffic don't care anymore. I had a stick for years, and that is a skill I think everyone should learn, but I'm over it.

    Monster Hunter (2020)

    When they were copying sets from the game, I have to admit that they did a pretty good job of it. The rest of it was pretty bad, but exactly what you'd expect from the RE crew. I'd hate to be one of those other non-Perlman actors from the MH world. You saw their faces for MAYBE 5 seconds...

    What tickles your pickle

    Gotta take the good where I can in today's society. My pickle is tickled every time I use the "Auto Hold" button in my car. For those not in the know, it is a button you press to keep the brake on even when you take your foot off of it. Perfect for drive thrus, long stop lights, bumper to...

    I would have liked to see King Diamond take a run at it in his prime! If you know what my avatar is, you know he's my favorite.

    Minecraft

    They are putting it out too fast for the modding community now though. 1.12 was the old standard, now they are scrambling to agree on another, with 1.16 looking to be the one most decided on...but with changes like this, I can see modders wanting to wait even longer. Sucks if you like playing...

    Pre-order just went live today. More than I expected it to be, but fuck it, I bought the Deluxe Edition! Loved the first game.

    Dungeons & Dragons (2022)

    I just reread Elric this past month, and while I still enjoyed them, the problem is partly that they were all originally short stories just bound together into novels. Some of them are even blatantly in the wrong order. You get his archenemy, Theleb Ka'arna (don't sue me if I put the ' in the...

    Psycho Goreman (2021)

    It is cheesy. The special effects are terrible, but purposely so. The plot is weak and literally nothing special. You can see the ending coming a mile away. I still loved it. 8/10, will watch again, just for the little girl and the dad, and of course PG himself. If you don't appreciate...

    Stuff like raspberry flavored candy is made out of weird shit like beaver anal glands, bugs, all kinds of crazy shit, right? Who was the first person to think that beaver anal glands might have a use beyond what the beaver used them for, and who tasted them first? Along those lines too...

    I'm most of the way done with Book 2, and I will say it gets better...but it gets a LOT worse first :( Two chapters in a row of Ryoka doing exceptionally stupid shit nearly killed it for me. Whom you haven't met yet, at that point. Everyone says it gets even better later. If nothing else...

    Bloody Hell (2020)

    It isn't anything that dramatic. I just failed to notice one thing in the trailer (it was shown for maybe a second at most), so when it was shown in the movie for longer, it was a pretty big shock for me. It is not any type of "gotcha" or Shamalamadingdong-esque twist though, just a "holy...

    Bloody Hell (2020)

    God damn I enjoyed this movie. It isn't breaking any new ground or anything, but they did lie about one pretty big thing in the trailer that is pretty shocking when you see it in the movie, and I really liked that they did that. In a time when they spoil the fuck out of everything in trailers...

    Whats rustling your jimmies?

    I know this isn't the proper thread for it, but I'll just drop this here and say it has never nipped me in the 6 months I've had it. Best jimmy trimmer I've ever used. The shape is what really makes it stand out from the rest.

    I sincerely hope all this cool stuff starts soon. I just got to read half a chapter where the two main Earth characters discussed how evil Trump is and how flabbergasted they are that he won the election. I get that two real 20'ish females from Earth that just discovered each other in a...

    Ceria, the half-elven mage. And of course Calruz, the minotaur leader, but I can't remember now if he got all his skin ripped off or he just disappeared under a sea of undead. I didn't read at all over the weekend, and I've got a few things lined up today at work, so might be a bit before I...

    Yeah, I just read the chapters where they ran into Skinner. Fuck me :( I suppose there *might* be some way certain characters that I really liked survived, but I'm not going to hold my breath. I sort of feel like if they get a combat section that ends with being torn up by ghouls and the...

    Torrents

    I just keep all my torrent sites as pinned tabs on my browser, so any time I restart they all open up again. Sometimes I check and they need to be logged into again, but by and large it keeps me from having to do much for several months. I also keep my computer on 24/7, but that doesn't really...

    Well, that is better than nothing. But I would still prefer it if she just died! The Horns of H-something made it to the inn and I'm glad to get more of them. I'd much rather follow their story, and other adventuring groups, but I guess I'll take what I can get. Ceria, the half-elven mage...

    Thank you. That gives me some hope. I honestly don't hate Erin, although I think she's kind of a terrible character to pin the beginning of a story on. But I can deal with her simply because of the interesting characters that interact with her. Sad thing is, plenty of interesting characters...

    First, let me thank you guys for this thread and these recommendations. I read Mother of Learning first, and I absolutely loved it. There was almost nothing that I didn't enjoy about that series, and I was eager to keep reading despite my Kindle telling me that I still had 30 minutes until the...

    Wonder Woman 1984 (2020)

    I can't trust any of those guys from Collider since the one dude died. I can't believe I used to watch their overly long bullshit propaganda videos at one point. Although the hot intro girls might have played a part in that.

    Ham vs Turkey

    I love turkey, but my parents live nearby and I'm forever alone, so I eat whatever they make on holidays. And they dislike turkey. So I always get fucking ham for both Thanksgiving and Christmas. Occasionally they do something like lasagna for Christmas, but I haven't had a fucking turkey in...

    The Night Comes for Us. I'm sure some of you have already seen it, but I had no idea it even existed. And from the title, I would have assumed it was a horror movie. It's not, it is in the same vein as The Raid, up to having the main dude from The Raid in it. And maybe others, but except for...

    Whats rustling your jimmies?

    I'm kind of OCD about nose and ear hair, to the point that when I'm sitting down watching TV, I keep tweezers next to me so I can pluck while I veg. It is strangely cathartic every time you get a good one out. Probably like pimple popping is for chicks. And if I feel a hair when I don't have...

    Archenemy (2020)

    I thought it was ok. Objectively I look back on it and realize there really wasn't much to the entire movie if you discount the stupid drama with the sister, but since that drama was the impetus for the rest of the movie, I guess it had to be there. Not enough of Joe Manganiello giving and...

    Freaky (2020)

    Completely enjoyed this too. I was very appreciative of the "throwback 80's style slasher-flick kills" in the beginning, and my only complaint is that there weren't too many more after that. But Vince Vaughn really made the movie.

    Wonder Woman 1984 (2020)

    In one of the trailers I saw, I could have sworn she actually lasso'd a fucking airplane to get a ride-along. Just how fucking far can that thing stretch?? That super-speed clip was worse than all of BvS, Doomsday included. And I liked the first Wonder Woman movie.

    Tenet (2020)

    I came to say basically this. I described it to a friend as it being a movie specifically created to showcase his "revolutionary" special effects of having people going forward and backward in time in the same scene. Which, admittedly, looked fucking flawless. But I feel like the only reason...

    The Paranormal, UFO's, and Mysteries of the Unknown

    Well, do we have anti-grav yet? I took 2 weeks of vacation, and since I wasn't wasting time at work I didn't log in to keep up with our alien neighbors, but I sort of expected that we'd have some cool new tech or verified aliens or something by now. All I got was a Transformers balloon pic :(
