    My turn! I hated Prince of Nothing. I would have liked it pretty much if it didn't have the main character, but that sort of defeats the purpose I suppose.

    Man of Steel

    Just looked into getting IMAX tickets, and it is 153 minutes long too. That's bordering on too long of an erection I think.

    So how many do we have for the next town? I haven't asked that group I mentioned earlier because I don't want to crowd out our own people, but if we've got plenty of room I still can.

    Well you sir are off my Christmas list! That being said, I haven't read his newest series yet, so I have no idea if he's pulled a Peter V. Brett and descended into shitasticery. I liked the assassin trilogy quite a bit though.

    Why do men keep putting me in the Girlfriend-zone?

    We obviously all have different definitions of what a friend is, so it is difficult for everyone to discuss this on equal terms. The "friend" I mentioned earlier I could live without ever speaking to again, so is that really a friend? Probably not, but it is about as close as a female ever...

    Man of Steel

    God dammit. I'm not sure I can take all of this build up. If this isn't the greatest movie ever I'm going to curl up into a little ball and cry myself to sleep the night I see this.

    Allow me to be the first to say The Black Company series, by Glen Cook. Mistborn by Brandon Sanderson Gentleman Bastards by Scott Lynch I forget the exact series name, but a trilogy about an Assassin by Brent Weeks Malazan by Erikson The Name of the Wind etc. by Patrick Rothfuss That's...

    Is Cities XL the game I should buy if I want to play SimCity? EDIT: Seems most reviews say no, it is a buggy piece of shit too. Back to SimCity 4 I guess.

    Why do men keep putting me in the Girlfriend-zone?

    In general I agree with the premise that men and women can't be friends, but I also understand that there are exceptions to every rule. I'd like to throw out one that has held true for me. It always starts with attraction for the guy, so at some point I've been interested in the girl(s) in...

    The "Shit I just bought" thread

    I just leave mine on constantly now. It provides a good night light, and the longest strand says it is something like 1.75W. Not sure what that comes out to yearly, but it can't be much.

    Book of the Month - Merged

    I started it, got about 20% in I believe, and was enjoying it to an extent, but then the new King Henry book came out, and I realized that I've got so many books I want to read that pushing my way through yet another book that only moderately interests me is counter-productive. Sure I've...

    Die2Nite

    It does get a little annoying with the blueprints in particular, and the random bad luck (I got yerm'd the town before this one on like day 3, so fuck camping ever again), but overall I just sort of look at it as something to do for 15 minutes while at work, and then just check randomly for...

    Google Play Books

    I've already got 2500 books in my Calibre library that I've meticulously cataloged and converted to MOBI. But Calibre wouldn't solve my problem anyway. My problem is that I would essentially never get to use my Kindle again if I wanted it to sync with a browser or phone app. Converting them...

    This would be fantastic for allowing me to waste even more time at work reading in my browser, but until it syncs with a Kindle/Kindle app/mobi files, I'm too invested in technology that doesn't work with it

    Does this mean that if we already have Google Music, we'll need to start paying for it now? Or is that only if we want the radio service?

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

    I'd be even more impressed if they fucked with people by tossing some blurry Superman/Batman colors across the screen for a split second and say something like they didn't make the cut, or some silly green construct roaring by and fucking everything up because the wielder is an idiot, but I...

    The King Henry Tapes (By Me!)

    Finished it last night, absolutely loved it. Definitely the best of the series so far. There were several moments when I laughed out loud, which doesn't happen with a lot of books, so great job on that. I'll put some reviews up later today if I get a moment. Is there a world record for...

    The "Shit I just bought" thread

    Understood, and that's a refreshingly honest admission. Typically here on the internet you're supposed to yell at us and tell us that we don't know what we're talking about As long as it sounds good to you, that's all that matters. At some point you'll feel the need to replace components...

    Supernatural

    Well, that didn't turn out like I expected it to either. I'm looking forward to the new season just as much as I ever have in the past, maybe moreso. As I mentioned in the Arrow thread, both shows season finales were titled "Sacrifice." That had to have been on purpose, which is pretty cool.

    Arrow

    Yeah, that was a lot better than what I feared was going to happen. I'm pretty damn pleased with this show rarely taking the easy or obvious way out. As a side note, the season finales of both Arrow and Supernatural were titled "Sacrifice." Pretty cool.

    Iron Man 3 [Spoilers Everywhere]

    You have to admit that the choice of clothing is definitely interesting though. I doubt she wore the same outfit every issue, so that's clearly a strange choice if they aren't going to film that scene. Also, comics need more of that shit. Everyone being brought back to life takes away all...

    Stalker / surveillance help

    I can't imagine why she would be staying there if she doesn't trust the landlord anyway, so yeah, get the fuck out now. If he's that big of a piece of shit he doesn't deserve notice that she's moving anyway. Also, tell us what town you live in so that if you stop posting we can check for...

    The "Shit I just bought" thread

    This isn't me being a dick, so please don't take it that way, but I'm surprised that you even went the Playbar route with what is clearly intended to be a fairly high-end room setup. I don't see a receiver mentioned anywhere, so it sounds like you are routing things directly to the TV and sound...

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

    I like that approach, particularly if they were to expand it to more than just movie franchise characters. There are plenty of characters that have been associated with SHIELD over the years, so show a glimpse of some of them. I'm assuming they still can't use any characters they've sold the...

    How I Met Your Mother

    Christ. It's a good thing this isn't more than 20 minutes of my life each week. As someone earlier said, I expected her to be hotter. Don't get me wrong, knees too sharp and all that, but she's kind of weird looking. Her future daughter (Lyndsy Fonseca) is vastly hotter.

    Grim Dawn

    I loved Titan's Quest, and this was the first Kickstarter I ever contributed to. I didn't spring for alpha/beta access, but that's fine, because after Diablo III I'm overwhelmingly tired of playing a game through 400 times as part of the "experience." That's my current least favorite mechanic...

    Man of Steel

    That's pretty much how I feel too, although I must admit that there is also something that enthralls me about a Superman movie far more than his comics ever did. Epic is a good description for how this movie looks, but Returns sort of looked that way too. I liked Returns more than most people...

    Haha, the joke is on naerik, Allie Sin looks like she doesn't want to do it in every video! She's hot as fuck, with some of the nicest natural titties I've seen, but damn is she a dead lay in all of her videos. GIS for "dead lay" gave me way too much of some emo looking band, so this is what...

    Scenes that made you cry like a bitch

    This is by no means the saddest thing I've ever watched, not by a long shot. Most of those have already been listed and I don't see any need to repeat them. However, in the interest of contributing something new, this was actually a pretty damn "dusty" scene on a show that wasn't typically...

    I'm not worried about the spacing for myself, it just means I click next page more often is all. I just figured it probably wasn't what you wanted and you might not be aware of it. I had no clue who Raymond Swanland was until just now, and holy shit, I agree. I've obviously seen his work...

    Nah, I think she was realizing just how much her "team" contributes to her being able to solve the cases too. Ryan and Esposito both had significant contributions to the case that she might not have ever seen, and her and Castle reached the conclusion together, which is how they often do it...
