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

    @Crone Sorry I'm late, but if I'm understanding this correctly, without Jackett you'll always have to download things manually, right? Although, you say that it is able to download an episode of Arrow, so maybe I'm just not following why it isn't finding Portlandia for you. Is it because...

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

    I'm not understanding all of this, particularly Is it in the folder or not? There's no real point in making it one big drive since I'm assuming you are moving the files to series folders anyway, and moving them to a folder or moving them to a different drive makes no difference in the big...

    Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them (2016)

    Exactly. I realize I'm not the vast majority of viewers, but as soon as someone tells me that certain actors (Depp firmly among them) are part of a movie, I'm automatically less interested because it tends to become more about them than the actual movie itself. Conversely, you tell me that...

    Dirk Gently's Holistic Detective Agency

    Went to look up the sister, who is confirmed hot (as is the assassin when not on this show), and found out the show was created by Max Landis. I guess that explains a lot.

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

    I don't know if it is in this thread or another, but I did a fairly comprehensive outline of how mine was set up, including the FLEET restrictions. Between the two of us it probably covers most of what people would need.

    Dirk Gently's Holistic Detective Agency

    Second episode got a lot weirder; great for someone that enjoyed the books, but I have trouble imagining the average viewer (even the average British viewer) staying interested with all the wacky shit going on. I mean, I like it because I know it is supposed to be that way, but can it really...

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

    Well, in Sonarr you can specify things like quality, so if you set it for 720p for example, it will skip any that aren't 720p (including skipping 1080p unless you allow that as well and just want the first one of 720p or greater), and once it grabs a valid 720p copy it will ignore any others...

    The Dating Game: Glory Hole Edition - Round 19

    Plenty of winners again this time, but I'm really hoping for Georgina Haig with pick #6 again. There's something almost mystical about her looks. If I get a Megyn Kelly - Neve Campbell - Georgina Haig (well ok, pretty much any of the females this round actually) streak, poor Neve is going to...

    The Dating Game: Glory Hole Edition - Round 18 ~ Trickin' For Treats ~

    Not gonna complain about Neve that's for sure, but I'm still kinda in the afterglow of Megyn Kelly so I don't feel like I can give my full attention to Neve. Luck is picking up again after a brief dip.

    Lucifer

    Big episode in terms of what will happen in the future, surprised no one has said anything yet. Maze and Trixie were great together, hoping we get a lot more of that. Very interested to see where the storyline with the shrink goes from here. Also seems that Mom is subtly working to turn as...

    A fat girl asks how she looks, you respond:

    Ask her if she identifies as fat, thin, or other. Tell her you don't want to impose your own standards on her for fear of body shaming her. Then when she asks wtf you are talking about, say, "Thanks Obama."

    The Dating Game: Glory Hole Edition - Round 18 ~ Trickin' For Treats ~

    A little nervous after my Megyn Kelly win last round, but going with Door #6 again because it looks fairly sturdy and unassuming. Which probably means it has the worst one behind it.

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

    As an elitist snob with a BTN account for the last 6+ years, I still thought that IPT worked with programs like Sonarr? I'm sure I could research it and find the answer myself, but don't they have an API key as well that you can literally just plug in and have Sonarr auto-download everything...

    The Sci-Fi Book Thread

    I've probably pimped it in this thread or one like it in the past, but I highly recommend the Paratwa trilogy by Christopher Hinz. First book is Liege-Killer, and is still my second favorite book of all time (Black Company being #1). It isn't space opera, but it is future setting, people live...

    What did you just read?

    Wait, isn't is usually the other way around? Isn't the second one where he spends forever fucking some nymph or some shit? And the chick does stupid shit? Fuck, I can't even remember much, but I thought for sure the second book was widely regarded as the shittier of the two? Maybe I'm wrong.

    The Dating Game: Glory Hole Edition - Round 17 ~ October Surprise : Leaking Wicks~

    Two shitty competitions in a row, and not a great outlook this time around either, but here's hoping for SE. I've had a thing for her since Red Eye years ago. Wouldn't say no to Megyn Kelly either.

    Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2 (2017)

    You're just dodging the question by answering a different question, but it isn't worth arguing over opinions this much anyway. I submit that the Thor movies, for example, will never ever rank as low as Wolverine Origins or BvS in my mind, but for you I guess they do. <thatslikeyouropinionman.jpg>

    Westworld

    I listened to it several times, but I'm pretty sure the head Q&A lady said that the board would be "descending" soon. That could be trickery going both ways, to make us think it is really a "descent" or just a fancy word for "arriving". I'd imagine the outerspace theories are having a field...

    Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2 (2017)

    Ok, so take those tiers you already posted and include the following movies: Man of Steel, BvS, Suicide Squad, X-Men Apocalypse, X-Men 3, Wolverine Origins and Wolverine Japan (note, not all of those are shit in my opinion). If you don't need another tier for a few of those, I'd argue you're...

    Dirk Gently's Holistic Detective Agency

    I enjoyed it as well, although it isn't really anywhere near as wacky as the books. Which is a good thing, I want to say. Also very interesting that Elijah Wood is the main character, not Dirk, but I think that works to the show's benefit as well. It is very hard not to root for Elijah Wood...

    Hah! I'm not sure if he got his pun or not, but that gif cracks me up. And you're probably right Tuco, but my answer is still that I'd go. At least I'd still be an actual bro when that xer knocked on our door, with both sets of genitalia (or none) and an inability to speak unless cleared by...

    Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2 (2017)

    The thing many of us are still shaking our heads at is that you guys are calling some of these movies shit, when shit should be reserved for a whole other tier. If you guys are breaking these into 3 tiers, most of the DC universe would be 4th or 5th tier. And I also rewatched all of the MCU...

    Black Mirror

    Many of them do, I'm not sure if it is an every episode thing, but now that you mention it (I never noticed) I can definitely remember a few of them doing it. The one that fucked me up most (the bike riders), the chick that was being chased by maniacs, they definitely looked in the mirror early...

    You're trapped in the mall during the zombie apocalypse...

    You really need to limit the choices some. Otherwise you get jerks like me choosing weapons like this: 1) Infinity Gauntlet 2) Doesn't really matter because I can literally create/summon/resurrect any woman I want with the gauntlet, but for sake of the exercise I'll choose the fictional...

    First episode of the new season was ok, more of a "what a shitty world we're heading toward," but the second one is fuuuuuucked up. Christ, I might have nightmares.

    Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2 (2017)

    I think the point was, if you are using the term "shit" to describe those movies, what are you using to describe movies like Batman v Superman, X-Men Apocalypse, Wolverine Origins, or Ghostbitches, for example? Because none of the MCU movies are anywhere near those in terms of "shit" so I'd...

    What makes your skin crawl?

    That doesn't bother me, but I can't stand having long nails on myself (I clip them at least once a week, and even then they often feel too long), and I work with several dudes that must not clip more than once a month. The sound their long ass fingernails make when they are running their finger...

    I am so sorry for your loss. I only just now saw this thread after a random check of the old site and thinking, man I sure hope he realizes we all moved and aren't just ignoring him.

    Triple posting aside, I'd like to commend you Wooly, for modifying your posting habits in a positive manner lately. I can't speak for anyone else, but for me at least, it makes a HUGE difference when you present something like this and say why you think it is true, versus what you used to do...

    Hugh Jackman: Logan

    God dammit. Now I have to go see this. I agree it will probably end up being another suckfest, but god dammit if that trailer didn't make me well up a little. Johnny Cash's version is without question my favorite "I'm totally not crying" song (and watching his video to go along with it is...

    Thank God Wells believed in Jesse so she could be a hero. We all know that speedsters can't do a fucking thing unless someone tells them they believe in them first. Fuckers. Pretty funny to me that Agents of SHIELD started off as the inferior superhero show, and now it is clearly in first...

    The Astronomy Thread

    Sure, but as my fantasy goes, the ship is already built and at least seems like it has a reasonable chance of success, not "a comet is coming and we have to build it right now even if we aren't ready." In reality it is far more likely that a human element fucks it all up and kills everyone...

    I'd get on a Space Ark right the fuck now if it were already built and ready to go. Cryogenic sleep or just make babies for thousands of years, I don't care, I'd go. Sure I'd miss my family and friends, but I'm not married and have no kids, so I'd get over it. The chance to be part of...

    Beautiful cat, and I like the cat tree. I'm guessing that was pretty expensive, as it has more to it than the one I have and that was expensive enough. You were also smart/lucky in that your cat is similar in color to the tree upholstery. I bought one that color and the cat that uses it is...

    The Dating Game: Glory Hole Edition - Round 14

    Once again I have no idea who half these chicks are. Googling tells me that apparently some of them are just instagram-type famous. That pic of Riley Voelkel (another one I never heard of, and don't think I'll start watching The Originals just for her) makes her look like a young Charlize...
