I loved the Lord of the Rings movies, and obviously am a fan of this book, so the story was great, I enjoyed the parts he added, and I was completely fine even with the fact that he's going to make 3 movies out of it. I will enjoy every single bit of story I'm pretty sure. That being said...

Some routers given out by companies like Comcast have a setting that will prevent you from flooding a site with views (like say if your machine were infected with a Tyen bot and it started trying to DDoS a particular site). It happened to me at times on games like Die2Nite when we'd be spamming...

Most David Weber books are exactly that (Honor Harrington, etc.). In particular the ones he did with Steve White. There is a 4 book series of Insurrection, Crusade, In Death Ground, and The Shiva Option which are pretty damn good, and have a lot of space battles as well. Also, there are...

I had shoulder surgery two months ago for adhesive capsulitis (frozen shoulder), and I'm glad I did. It is something that might (usually does) go away in a couple of years, but the excruciating pain during that time would have been too much for me to handle. Not being able to raise your arm...

He gets shit on a lot for most of his movies, but this scene was just perfectly done I felt. Not THE most epic moment of any movie, but one that always stands out to me. I can't find a link, but the scene in The Seventh Sign where she stabs him and he pulls out the knife and says "I came...

Put me in the column of thinking that a show like this wouldn't survive killing off its main character (Rick). I'm not saying they won't ever do it, but if they do it will be time for the show to die. You guys aren't thinking like all the non-nerd and/or female viewers out there that would get...

I would definitely get as many HDMI ports as you can, but I wouldn't spend a ton extra for just them either. My HDMI switch cost me under $30 I believe, and adds 5 more, and has worked flawlessly for a year and a half now. It even has a tiny little remote (which I never use, because the...

No. You want "Chronicles of the Black Company" which contains "The Black Company," "Shadows Linger," and "The White Rose." Or buy those 3 individually if you find them, either way that is where you want to start.

You can always second-guess someone with impossible standards like that, and obviously in reality he wouldn't work. But in the comics, there is ALWAYS a way that Superman could have achieved the same goal without arbitrarily killing someone. As shown in those clips that Kinkle posted, when it...

For that price you're going to be hard pressed to find any 60" TV that is any better than that, so it sounds like a good deal. Might be a last years model they are trying to blow out, but nothing wrong with that, get some of the best deals that way. The closest I can find in Panasonic plasma...

Sorry to hear about your friend. Currently I have no one in my immediate family dealing with it, but I figure it is only a matter of time. Sometimes I feel like it would be better to go first so I don't have to watch my parents and possibly sister go before me. I don't know how well I'm going...

I keep hearing that and telling myself I should. Too many real books I want to read at the moment, but I should definitely make the time, I know.

I don't really mind him in most things, the Reacher movie has me a bit bent out of shape though because Reacher is a huge fucking guy that uses his bulk and size to his advantage all the time. Now we're going to have him beating people up with quick little ninja moves, not hammer fists and...

Something has to come of those flashbacks, doesn't it? I mean, he can't just up and retire and go back to live with the vet chick out of remorse, although I could see them trying to make that a "big deal" in the season finale. Hopefully she's a special sort of undetectable demon, or angel, or...

Well, I'm eager to hear what Heylel has to say, but in the meantime I'll give it a shot. This is sort of tough for me to explain because I wasn't much of a fan of Superman in the comics (remember though, my "comic time" was before a lot of you were born) because I was always a Marvel guy...

Good thing Windows 8, Internet Explorer, and Bing were there to help catch the bad guy! I didn't catch the tablet brand, but I have a guess.... Thought Thea was going to mount Oliver there at the end though. I could have gone for some Lannister action.

Maybe she'll drop the soap in lockup. Wait, is that even a thing in women's prison?

I agree 100% with Saladus. You know she will just feed off of the drama and diddle herself and Tyen over fucking up yet another board, so let's deny her that pleasure altogether. She shit her bed once, don't put her in another one and not expect her to do it all over again. Let her lay in the...

I completely agree with you, he's by far my favorite on the show. The other 5% is Castiel and hot pieces of ass. Said hot pieces have been sorely lacking lately too, now that I think about it. I remember reading an interview with Ackles near the end of Season 5 where he said it was over...

I'm not a fan of Snow either. She's clearly not ugly, but she just doesn't do it for me like Red does. And I'd take Regina over Snow any day. I enjoy the show quite a bit for the different spin it puts on things. I shouldn't be watching it though, I should be saving it for some future...

Those Polk speakers mentioned from Newegg are the shit for the money (when they're on sale). I bought four of them, because for the price they weren't much more than good rear speakers. Now I just need a place to put the two rears.... Also picked up the center when it was on sale separately...

All I can think of is the Key & Peele skit where the agent is talking to Will Smith's kid about a script and he has to keep explaining things like "outside"..."you know, the stuff that goes by the window of your limo."

Wow, that was absolutely terrible. The girl was ok to look at, but had absolutely no chemistry with the guys, and was cast as nothing but a using bitch, so she'd have zero sympathy from the audience, which is never good for a show like this. You have to like the characters at least a little...

Going to spoiler my comments just to be fair to the people that haven't read everything yet. Not giving anything away outside of the two books, but just trying to be fair.

I am pretty sure that Boomworm is going to be my favorite character (after King Henry of course). T-Bone was a nice addition as well though, really liked him. So, my big question to you is, how many of these do you plan to write? It is obvious that you could fill a dozen books or more with...

I took it as a "Instead of letting me fall in love with you and think that I might have a normal life with a man I could truly relate to, you should have just killed me because knowing I almost had it, only to have it ripped away so abruptly, is the worst torture you could have done to me."...

Well, we already know he does the whole crab fishing thing, but I think it ties back to what his mother says to him when the voices are overwhelming his head. She says to listen to her voice and picture it as an island all alone in the middle of the ocean. I think he sort of just does that as...

Hell, I even giggle each episode when I hear the assumed names they are using that week. Like Van Halen and Anthony, or Plant and Page, etc. Dumb, but it resonates with me, so I keep watching (for other reasons as well).

Eh, Cam isn't a bad guy deep down, he just wears his heart on his sleeve. Granted, he puts himself in situations where he's bound to get hurt, but he doesn't think that is going to be the case when he does them. Not sure where all this came from, but I wouldn't be surprised to see him back...

Intedesting. I was under the impression they never married as well. Ah well, none of my business either way, but very interesting if true.

Well, if you're a real Superman nerd (like me) and you got confirmation that you would have ALL of the powers of Superman, I'd take 30 years off the end. Because what is 30 years taken off of functional immortality? If Superman were real, he'd eventually get tired of living for eons and eons...

An HD antenna can usually pick up most local channels. If you want it more streamlined you can even add something like a BoxeeTV box (or any of several that are like it). Depending upon your location you might need a big antenna, but you probably can put it somewhere out of the way and just...

Thanks for the info. I can't imagine actually getting upset over being caught on something that dumb. If it were me I'd have just laughed and said you caught me, good job. Ah well, I've come to realize not everyone on the internet is rational.

You going to share with us? I didn't see anything that happened today at all.

Req should have waited until the 21st, just to make it more dramatic. Glad we've got a thriving community here though, as that's all that has ever mattered to me. Losing all of those threads kind of sucks though. Maybe a wayback archive will have some of them?

It was a retcon some years ago. Personally I hate it, and refuse to accept it, but it was more or less created to explain why his suit and cape don't get destroyed every time he does something, or how he can catch someone that's falling without shattering every bone in their body. Essentially...

I was never a fan of Superman comics, but I loved the first couple Chrisopher Reeve movies, and was so stoked for Returns that I saw it first day. I don't know exactly what it is, but I will be there first day for this as well (midnight showing if possible) with my dick in my hand and a huge...

Just finished the second one a couple days after the first. Definitely just as entertaining and captivating. I'll be throwing up some reviews today if I get the time. Now I'm stuck with everyone else waiting for number threeI'm dying to really meet the Boomworm!

I know this isn't exactly news (I've seen his pics before also), but are we just going to skip over the fact that Celebrindal is Vin Diesel?

First of all, The Silver Spike is Limper-heavy, so skipping that is a mortal sin! Seriously, read it! Second, if it helps any, the wrap-up in the final book is one of the best I've read insomuch as you just read ten books and you don't really feel let down, unlike many, many other series or...
