    The NSA watches you poop.

    Well realistically, if a reporter who is a known whistleblower turns up with a bullet in him, people are going to dig into it and not be ridiculed for doing so. Same dude's car or plane crashes and anyone asking questions about it can be marginalized as a tinfoil hat wearing herpderp. Again...

    The NSA watches you poop.

    Bullets can and will always be traced after the fact. That potentially complicates things. Exploding cars leave no long term evidence, especially when you roll in your own people to manage the crime scene. Not saying he was killed, but a fake crash is probably the tidiest way to take out a...

    Pacific Rim

    I love fun things, I just can't shut off my brain to the degree this movie requires to embrace it as much as you guys have. Most of that is the fault of the movie. Had the opening verbal vomit in batman voice been all the plot in this movie, with the balance of it being giant robots punching...

    Pacific Rim

    Both movies are science fiction, both are major releases, and both attempted to be serious movies.....?

    Pacific Rim

    Without going into a long winded rant, I would just like to state five things after seeing this last night: 1) The people who dogpiled on Prometheus for its plot flaws that are also praising this movie need to do some self reflection with regards to their fanboism. 2) You cannot try to be...

    The Astronomy Thread

    Nothing will move forward until the issues surrounding supporting our biology in low gravity are solved, anyhow. In that sense, Mars makes more sense for a colony, because the gravity is relatively close and its near the asteroid belt. I guess if automation progresses enough we could mine the...

    Stunty Blood Bowl League

    Welp, with the Superhiro no show draw, the Makkon MIA, and Orcacyde bye, I have exactly one real game left to play. See Addle in a couple weeks I guess!

    Justice for Zimmerman

    For those bitching about Obama making a public statement about the trial, in my view it was better to say something moderate (as I feel he did) and try and diffuse the riled up ignorant masses than for him to stand by and let another Rodney King shitfest ensue. Nothing he or Holder said was...

    Stunty Blood Bowl League

    No sign of superhero, but he appears to have played his summer league game so he must be around. I sent him a message here and have been periodically checking irc. Do what you gotta do on that game, I guess. Unless he turns up tonight.

    Underrated science fiction movies

    Riddick was basically "Warhammer 40k the movie" and very entertaining. I can understand why people did not like the tonal shift from Pitch Black, however.

    Blood Bowl, Season 3.5 AKA Summer Fresh Team Tournament

    Xander basically said he was unavailable until next weekend. I was around and in IRC (got my other games done last weekend in fact), but the only time he popped on was super early on the Saturday after the 4th. I would actually like to play him, if possible. Is there any way we can extend...

    The Last of Us

    The only way I could see any story involving the original characters is if they did a ten years later thing with Ellie as the protagonist, or something similar. Maybe the survivors of the Fireflies find out where she is and want to come get the cure or whats left of the government starts trying...

    The Lone Ranger

    The timing issue is particularly egregious because one of the main competing movies (Despicable Me 2) was released by Disney, as well. If this movie had released when they originally intended, prior to Disney shutting down shooting and waving its dick around, it would have come out in late...

    The Lone Ranger

    Well I liked it a lot, but I can totally understand how it tanked with the younger ADD crowds who did not grow up on Westerns and had no familiarity with the source material. The target audience of this flick was too narrow for the amount of money and talent involved in it. The John Carter...

    The Lone Ranger

    Grew up on the show, listened to records of the old radio show withmy grandparents, and consider myself a longtime fan of the Lone Ranger. I personally liked this movie as much as anything I have seen this summer and felt it captured the feel of the old show with a modern spin. It kind of felt...

    The Last of Us

    Yeah clickers went from OMFG Rape Train to trivial bullshit once you got Molotovs. Flame Thrower made it easier still. I found that the hunting rifle with max scope and AP punched the bloaters fairly well, especially if you put a nail bomb in their path before popping them. Honestly, that...

    The proliferation of stupidity

    These are the grandkids of the baby boomers, so essentially a whole generation of undereducated spoiled shits being enabled by their spoiled as shit grandparents, who are in many cases likely more around than their parents due to the economic destruction of the nuclear family. Education made a...

    Blood Bowl, Season 3.5 AKA Summer Fresh Team Tournament

    I kind of like the double round robin so that you get a chance to replay people. Sometimes dice can just tip a game so absurdly and its nice to have another chance at an opponent.

    Man of Steel

    Adult Swim stole my joke last night, but there version was funnier. Bump describing the movie read "Longest DBZ Episode Ever."

    Which type of girlfriend would you prefer?

    For me its more about intelligence and sense of humor, so the B category is nearly always going to out do the A category in that department. For a long term relationship, B every single time. The A option is only good for when you are young and just looking to fuck anything that moves.

    Board Game - Cthulhu Wars (Kickstarter, already funded)

    It is an insanely expensive ripoff of Chaos in the Old World, rules wise, but the pieces and board are nice. Wonder if FFG will sue them or not.

    You can count me in. Not sure what I will play, but leaning either Nurgle or maybe some flavor of elf.

    That equates to 4pm PST? I might be a little after that, but I will hop on IRC the moment I get home on the laptop.

    Stunty Blood Bowl League

    Restless, if you have not dropped off the face of the earth, my main PC croaked, but I have a laptop I can play on until I get my new one up later this week. Give me a time frame that our game can occur in.

    Rerolled.org Blood Bowl League - Season 3.

    My main PC died. I do have a laptop backup, so I can play if we set a time for me to be on and check mIRC. Check your Steam Messages, as I sent you my email address there.

    World War Z

    Not the book, but good movie. In fact, a much better movie than Man of Steel or IM3. I am not sure the book would have worked as written as a movie, so I am not overly disappointed in that. Amazing intense scenes and well paced, though the end tapered off a little bit. As a post apocalyptic...

    Man of Steel

    Does not alter the fact that supes essentially commited genocide. In fact his list of criminal offenses in the film is pretty impressive. Theft of numerous items, infiltrating a military outpost, vandalism of a guys truck, the negligent homicide of his earth dad, numerous acts of destruction...

    Man of Steel

    Finally saw it with the wife. Was ok, good even, but not great. Special effects were top notch and there was a shit ton of action. The bit characters and Zod were acted very well, despite having very little to work with. Cavil and Adams were extremely forgettable in this movie, however. As...
