    House of the Dragon

    And Paddy Constantine's box office total for leading roles is $5.2 million. Total. But fine, you all have convinced me. GoT was filled with no talent actors except Sean Bean and this show is filled with actors giving a clinic on the craft.

    House of the Dragon

    And I hadn't ever heard of the two fucking actors in this that are apparently carrying it. I recognize them, sure. But that's not the point he's trying to make. NCW had two decades of acting experience. I bet if regular people rewatched Black Hawk Down they'd be like, oh shit, I know that guy...

    House of the Dragon

    Nice selective picks. So her playing the Queen in one of the most iconic action movies at the time in 300 is nothing? Or being the main star of the Terminator series? Nah, she's just some shit character you jerked off to 25 years ago. Sure. Mamoa was the lead in the Conan movie (shot prior to...

    House of the Dragon

    Are they though? I'd never heard of them. They seem like they're famous with nerds for very specific roles that most people wouldn't have watched. Nikolaj Coster-Waldau, Lena Headey, Jason Mamoa, Alfie Allen, Aiden Gillen, Charles Dance, Iain Glen, and even Peter Dinklage were all very...

    Why are you being salty? He's a character on BCS. This is related.

    Which is strange because I saw last week that Regal was declaring bankruptcy.

    Better Call Saul

    Since apparently we're just posting about whatever we want in this thread now, Mark Proksch started by doing this character called K-Strass on local TV stations. I'm kind of sad he hasn't been in more stuff. The guy should be way more successful than he is.

    Better Call Saul

    Rewatched The Office last year and was pleasantly surprised to see him in it. He was fucking hilarious in that, too.

    She-Hulk

    Glad you posted the whole quote, because the "I might get murdered" part is fucking hilarious. Really? If you don't suppress your rage, you're going to get fucking murdered? Hysterical much?

    Throne and Liberty (Formerly Project TL)

    Yeah, AGS is the worst game publisher I can think of. I'm sure there's worse that is some kind of obscure studio, but I'd take Ubisoft or EA over AGS at this point.

    Don't we have a Breaking Bad thread for this shit?

    She-Hulk

    I'll keep pointing it out as long as you people keep watching and complaining. Every view you give it is a vote to Disney and every other media company that you want more of this. Ignoring it and still watching is how we got where we are.

    True Detective

    I'm pretty sure that episode is season 4 episode 1, is it not? It's listed as 2014 because that's how IMDB does shows, they list the premiere season, not the year the person was actually on.

    Damnit, and my time runs out at the end of September (from my 3 year peso purchase). Didn't plan on extending it ever again.

    Yeah, edited my post. Whole thing smells like shit. I wish I had people willing to just hand me $25M.

    Edit: Nevermind, looks like he liquidated it all. There's more to this story though, as to how he acquired $27M to start with (or rather, where his family and friends scrounged up that much). This isn't the headline it appears because he's already probably a trust fund baby.

    Reminds me of the WaitButWhy article on AI where he gives an example of how AI could wipe us out but not because of malicious reasons, just because it doesn't know any different.

    So that'd be a super dovish statement. And yet the market didn't respond whatsoever.

    Had that happen here yesterday in the Florida panhandle. Saw some clouds in the distance, checked the radar and looked like it'd completely miss us. 15 min later it was a torrential downpour, lightning like I've never seen, and crazy wind. Ended up losing our range, all the kitchen lights, and...

    This one is extra retarded though because they're doing it for diversity when GRRM actually included fuck tons of different "real world" races. The LOTR one is more bullshit overall though, and doesn't fit with the world.

    That looks terrible. Plus, no Johnny Depp as Gomez and Helena Bonham Carter as Morticia? What's that bullshit?

    Better Call Saul

    I think this was more bittersweet than anything. Not even sure there's a great way to end the series. I do think it was odd that Saul confessed to the Howard thing when Kim signed an affidavit. They were talking a civil suit, so it doesn't even matter. Hamlin's widow can sue her still, period...

    Appreciate you all watching this trash to give me something to read about and laugh at. Stopped watching at the end of season two with no intentions of picking this up again. Always good to feel validated.

    Damn, thought about tossing some in when I saw last night it was around $15. Figured I didn't wanna gamble on another short squeeze though.

    Wife showed me that this morning. And then yesterday a video of a hammerhead attacking a stingray in Orange Beach. Nature is a scary motherfucker. And considering we were at Pensacola Beach with the dog the other day, and visiting the inlaws in Orange Beach this weekend, shit hits close to home.

    Been an extremely quiet year for hurricanes. Or at least, I think so (2nd summer living in FL). I keep waiting for something to kick up in the Gulf so I can go surfing, but there hasn't been anything this year.

    Which is why most people are better buying an index. Just because you get it right once doesn't mean you know what's going to happen. Maybe there's a big crash coming, or maybe we've already seen the bottom.

    We got like $700 or so from a diamond settlement a while back, from my wife's wedding rings. Also got like $30 from the milk settlement! I think my wife also got maybe $200 from some settlement in Illinois against Facebook in the last year.

    The Sandman

    You know why it's hard? Because you have people saying "c'mon, it's just a little woke, watch it anyway." That just feeds the beast. Every time you watch this crap, you get more of it because the people with money aren't losing it.

    "The House Mate" was also pretty good. "He's relentless in love, he's relenteless in bed He's Nandor the Relentless He wears all sorts of capes He's not got much in his head He's Nandor the Relentless"
