One of the things the Deadpool people do right is escalation in their trailers. The first trailers are good, the later trailers are holy shit amazing. I knew I'd love this movie but I'm with you; I think I may be looking forward to it more than Infinity War now and that is saying something.

I could find my top 5 on the first page or two of this thread. office space, tropic thunder, etc. I am surprised to see the love two groups of movies are getting naked gun/hot shots/etc best in show/a might wind/etc If you find these movies even a little bit chuckleworthy there is some...

Finished the season. The story got increasingly interesting in the last 2-3 episodes and in the end it was moderately interesting how they set up the next season for truly lost in space. Overall, it was dumb fun. Every episode was had plenty of cringe inducing moments. So much of it was so...

I bet you anything the effect you are describing, of which I am highly skeptical (unhappy parents are worse than divorced parents) is only detectable when the parents are like domestic violence and restraining orders level unhappy. I bet they are comparing the average divorce case with the...

/shrug after countless situations where a gun would have been really friggin handy you point out that once a gun appears on the show, it causes nothing but problems. And you think I'm seeing a political message where non exists? I think Punisher is a show that handled guns in an even handed...

Theyre not on Alpha Centauri. Theyre on an unknown planet being attacked by random dinosaurs and eels and shit. They have the capacity to 3d print a gun but have specifically blocked this ability and even crash landed on this planet, the mom still whines about how guns make her feel unsafe. I...

In the modern era of film making, if there was a superhero actually named Blonde White Woman I would not expect her to be played by a blonde white woman

The more I watch this, the more the anti gun shit pisses me off. Every real life expedition to everywhere: lets bring some guns just in case. There are parts of most modern American cities where youd be an idiot to travel without a gun. But these fuckers traveling to a new planet? "Oh my guns...

This, so much. Fucking commercials on subscription TV services can eat a dick. We are already paying for the content, just let us watch the goddam content. I dont know how many times I've had a "legal" subscription service for a show and have instead watched a lower resolution version on an...

Lots to like but -- its cold enough that a huge lake freezes instantly - but warm enough that it rains rather than snows a handful of magnesium generates enough heat to melt a huge hole in the ice. oh, and it burns underwater, no problem.

On further reflection obviously both FF attempts were also among the worst comic book movies of all time, but the FF themselves were so lame in the comics its hard to complain much about the translation. For casting alone I cannot think of a single worse example in all of comic book adaptations.

I have admittedly only seen 2-3 episodes but it seemed even worse than Legends or Arrow

What is the worst adaptation of comic book to film of all time? This shit? Weapon X? Inhumans? edit : that godawful supergirl show should probably be on the list

LMFAO at Starfire and Raven 'Titans': First Look At Live Action Beast Boy, Starfire, And Raven Yeah, replacing two hot female characters with obviously caucasian features with a ghetto rat and a fat SJW. Nobody will notice that. Its the Gunslinger Principle. If they ignore physical appearance...

Sorry, I was unclear. Dont get me wrong, theres a lot of interesting stories about Tesla and I totally get being fascinated by him. I just think its funny how every conspiracy theorist seems to believe those stories while they cant agree on lizard people vs jews, flat earth vs the aliens are...

Its really interesting to me how conspiracy nuts always have a big hard on for Tesla. I mean, some of them are flat earthers, some are Birthers, some are area 51ers. But they all believe some long elaborate conspiracy about Tesla. Why is that?

Lumi, youre not bringing your A game with this "Antarctica is fake" shit. -Signed, a guy who has walked around on the continent of Antarctica.

Yeah, pho is incredibly overrated. Had no shortage of asian-run Pho places in LA (dont ask me what kind of asian, obviously). Never had any that didnt remind me of dirty dishwater. Its a general problem with asian food -- they dont understand soup or desserts. Soups are always flavorless stuff...

Episode 2 was so boring and formulaic I coundt be bothered to tune in for 3. Is the Kryptonian Inventor superman's grandma yet?

God Emperor of Dune is the best book in the series and perhaps the best sci fi book of all time. The ideas in that book are incredibly important and increasingly relevant. I am basically only interested in seeing a film translation of that book. I wish they would skip the less important earlier...

Like last season -- I'm not sure what just happened but it was fun to watch. I think I need to find a regular supply of hallucinogens for this show.

Looks like the chinese space junk wont be hitting the US; current predictions look like Africa TIANGONG-1 Reenter - Decay Predictions + ONLINE 3D REAL TIME TRACKING Anyone have other good tracking sites?

Good discussion, and not to be pedantic, but this distinction does matter. Its not "are sexual creatures". Its "will become sexual creatures". We are talking about children.

*alluding I cant take people seriously who have ostensibly speak English as a first language but have such a tenuous grasp on the English language This thread title still rustles my jimmies multiple times a day

Thats an interpretation of observations, not an experiment. You specifically said real science requires experiments.

Neat. Which experiment demonstrated that earth is at the center of the universe? Since youve assured us that experiments are the only thing that counts as science, I'm sure you have a quick experiment that demonstrates what youre asserting.

In fairness, I think a father can accept the inevitability of his daughters' becoming sexually active as adults, without letting 12 year olds wear uncovered yoga pants in public. But you make a good point. Not everything has to be a hard and fast rule, approval and disapproval are powerful tools.

I completely hear you on the big picture here. But man, uncovered yoga pants are way too revealing. I enjoy it way too much when a hot adult woman wears yoga pants uncovered in public. I think most of us do. I am pretty sure my line will have to be cover that shit up when my daughters get old...

Lumi may be confused about geometry, biology, and theology but I don't recall him being confused about the difference between a phenomenon and multiple phenomena.

This show was all over the place. Don't care enough to look into it, but was did this go through some kind of reshoot fuckery? Change directors mid filming? Run out of money during production? Acting varied widely from one scene to the next, ranging from community college drama club bad to...

All female team takes on an unknown phenomenon. Every single one of them dies, except the lead character who apparently , probably dooming the human race and all life on earth. Sounds about right. Seriously though, I really enjoyed some aspects of this, overall I'm going 6/10. Not worth a...

I loved the first season of JJ. It ranked right up there with Punisher for me. This season was nails on a chalkboard bad, and I couldnt help but finish it anyway hoping some of the season 1 magic would return. And I sat there watching episode after episode where the entire story arc was...

My wife gets in these moods too. Its like all of a sudden she's possessed by her mother in law and starts channeling her negativity. The following may sounds like I'm not being serious or not appropriate for the grown ups forum or something. But honestly, what helped me the most was realizing...

Taking a shower in that slimy-ass "soft water" is worse than chemo.

What if I'm not an illiterate dumbass and have no difficulty pronouncing simple chemical names? May I then use the soap?

This is a part of the question. I have spent my whole life preparing for (and doing) a career in research, so I've spent no time looking into what the options are in IT/software. What would I enjoy doing? I enjoy writing code, developing and maintaining databases, and to some limited extent...

Oh I get that. I guess I'm asking more generally (and you guys have already answered to some extent) about the feasibility of entering IT with coding experience from another field but zero IT experience. For example if someone came into my field applying for faculty jobs without a PhD and at...

Thanks guys this is useful. Tenks, I think you are right about differences between my coding experience to this point and the kind of challenges faced in a real IT environment. To be clear, I am not looking for more money, theres no way thatd happen switching careers. I'd consider a ~1/3...

I have a question for the professional IT folks. I'm a biologist who does (relative to biologists) quite a bit of programming. Compared to real IT professionals I have no doubt that both my choice of languages (Perl, bash, R, PHP, HTML) and my proficiency in each is weaker. But in the biology...

In case this was serious advice -- no, always hit the deer. It may "total" your car depending on insurance details but it wont hurt you. Swerving to avoid the deer stands a very real chance of ending one or more human lives. Source: I've hit several deer over the years.
