    The Fast Food Thread

    So, I've never really been a fan of Carl's Jr., but it is one of two quick places I can choose from when I'm in a particular area around lunchtime on a workday. The other choice is Jack in the Box, and I've been pretty turned off by them lately, so I went with CJ yesterday. I ordered onion...

    Jumanji: Welcome to the Jungle (2017)

    Looks pretty funny to me. I'll MoviePass it if I can muster up the energy, but otherwise I'd have waited for video probably.

    Marvel Universe stuff

    Yeah, where on the Batman-ranking of hand-to-hand combat does Thor rank?? For someone who literally spent millennia fighting in battles alongside the fallen warriors brought to Asgard in their daily battles to prepare for Ragnarok, you'd expect that shit to be pretty high. I'm not sure I'll be...

    Avengers: Infinity War (2018)

    It is shocking how many theories on the last page have literally been refuted or debunked or at least talked about on the very same page or at most one or two prior.

    Black Mirror

    I was going to post asking if anyone knew when Season 4 was going to be released, but I figured that's pretty fucking lazy of me, so I googled it and found out that 6 episodes are supposed to be out before the end of the year. No specific date given yet, just before the end of the year. So on...

    My wife caught me

    I know this isn't the proper place for it, but then again it is in the Rickshaw so it is the proper place for everything. I have almost that exact same cat tree (clearly same brand at least) for my two cats, one of which is black (#BCM), and they fucking love the shit out of it. But even after...

    The only noticeable difference Quantum has made in my life is that it broke several of my key add-ons and gave me no way to go back without manually installing an older version. Ain't notbody got time for that. Maybe it is a few milliseconds faster or some shit, but that doesn't matter to me...

    Avengers: Infinity War (2018)

    It has been mentioned in a few analysis videos I've seen that the eyepatch is pretty much just a CGI filter they apply, so it might literally be as easy as turning off that layer to give him his eye back in the trailers they didn't want to spoil the end of Thor Ragnarok in. If it was that easy...

    Avengers: Infinity War (2018)

    There are only two movies between Avengers 3 and 4, Ant-Man & Wasp and Captain Marvel. Neither of those are likely to deal with Adam Warlock at all, since Captain Marvel is set in the past, before he is created. I am wishing harder than anyyone else that Avengers 3 is half Thanos collecting...

    The Flash

    I enjoyed most of it much more than I expected to, with a couple nerd nitpicks of course. Hey, I'm The Flash, who can literally go scout a base 20+ km away (including determining that there is a power dampener...how did he find that out, run into it??) in less than a second, or grabs Diggle...

    Marvel Universe stuff

    I'm pretty sure they (Marvel) specifically called it that and explained it like that already. I know I've seen it referenced in multiple YouTube videos at least.

    Justice League (2017)

    I finally watched this, after subjecting myself to a re-watch of the 3 hr BvS (first time seeing the 3 hr one) the night before, and was of course disappointed. I hoped it was at least decent, but fuck man, so many terrible things. Steppenwolf leads the list, such horrible CGI, no real...

    Marvel's The Punisher

    Finished this last night, absolutely loved it. About the only things that I would have liked changed are frequent, blatant nudity from Midani and a scene of Frank murdering the fuck out of a bunch of people with Megadeth's "Holy Wars: The Punishment Due" playing over it. I was actually a...

    What did you just read?

    So essentially I'm not smart enough :p Nah, I caught most of that, I just wasn't really clear on why for a lot of it, but what you said makes sense. Thanks for taking the time to spell it out for me.

    Web Browsers

    I don't know what it is making me feel this way, but I'm really liking Vivaldi a lot. I haven't checked things like memory usage or other technical aspects, but it hasn't had any lockups like Firefox does after I leave it open for a week with a bajillion tabs open. That's a huge plus for me...

    What did you just read?

    I just finished The Library at Mount Char by Scott Hawkins, which a couple of you had mentioned here. I thought it was incredibly well-written and I had no problems with wanting to keep reading, but man, I think I'm just too dumb for this book or something. I mean, I get the overall gist of...

    Rings of Power: Tolkien's Shambling Skinsuit

    So the TV guys can write an ending for it, like they did with GoT? Because that's the only way that piece of shit Rothfuss is ever going to finish it.

    Thor: Ragnarok (2017)

    I saw Fury Road on those DBOX seats, my first experience with them, and it made a little more sense in a movie where you could imagine yourself in a car almost the entire time. But yeah, I've never paid the extra for them since, and don't see myself changing that opinion.

    Thor: Ragnarok (2017)

    My feeling on this whole "getting their powers from Asgard" thing is that it might all be the same thing. In other words, Hela still is getting power from the people too, exactly the same as Thor does...she's just dealing with the fact that she got fucking shishkabobbed and then exploded by the...

    Whats rustling your jimmies?

    Are these delivery people from Amazon? Because they are the absolute fucking worst. It's like Uber for delivery drivers, except you don't even get to rate them. I've had them claim to have "handed parcel directly to resident" when it was left sitting outside my door, when I was sitting...

    Marvel Universe stuff

    Well, you're skipping over the fact that they could very easily leave the Fox properties "as is" so to speak, except for now they can steal characters here and there. In other words, just because Disney bought Star Wars doesn't mean that they took all the people that made Marvel movies and put...

    Jesus man, that fucking sucks. I'm really sorry to hear that. I might legit murder my "friend" over that. IPT usually gets every single thing BTN does, you just have to make a little more effort to automate it, if that's what you do.

    Thor: Ragnarok (2017)

    Because his intro comic was this awesome cover: And because it was the first issue of Walt Simonson taking over the book, and his artwork was fucking incredible and awe-inspiring, compared to the bland stuff that came before. The first few fucking pages were this: I was totally blown away...

    The Orville

    My "roommate" in my basement would like to have a word with you. No, but seriously, he didn't do anything overtly worth being killed over. Tied up while she escaped, sure, maybe. Ok, let's be realistic for a minute, while I'm bored at work. She's obviously not sick from the bad water, and...

    The Orville

    So this guy saved her from the infected people, and gave her clean food and water, and kept her locked in so she didn't try to escape or kill him. For all she knew he was a kind-hearted person just trying to give her time to acclimate and get used to him. Yet she fucking shot him. With a gun...

    Thor: Ragnarok (2017)

    I swear to God, if you are fucking with me! If I get Adam Warlock and Beta Ray Bill in Marvel movies I can die happy, and if they appear in the same movie, I might just end it immediately after the movie because it can't get any better.

    Saw it last night at IMAX 3D, absolutely loved it. Honestly I completely forgot that I was wearing 3D glasses, so either nothing really stood out, or it was fantastic. I would lean towards nothing standing out, as I never thought, "Woah, check out that 3D!" I won't put this over a few of...

    November 4th Civil War prep thread.

    If this board is full of nothing but fascists and Nazis and people that like to LARP being Nazis, why were you so desperate to get back in? So that you could educate us? Make us see reason and help impeach Drumpf? I mean, literally your first day back and you've done nothing but argue with...

    Stranger Things

    I just finished it last night (later than I should have!), and I enjoyed it overall. Not as good as S1, definitely, but still good. I commented to a friend immediately after watching episode 7 (sister) that I really disliked that one in particular, and felt it could have literally been taken...

    Google service alternatives

    I haven't had any issues either, and my open tab count keeps rising as it always does. I also have Firefox running simultaneously because I still haven't migrated every site I use over to Vivaldi yet. Still completely impressed with Vivaldi. It just lacks sync as far as I'm concerned.
