    The Writing Thread - Post Shit You've Written (And Criticize What's Posted)

    Shamelessly grabbed for free! Hopefully someday soon I'll have a chance to read some of it.

    So, I'm dying...

    God dammit. My coworkers are going to wonder why I'm tearing up a little. Like most of the others that have already posted, I only knew Gravy indirectly, never having any real interaction with him beyond reading his posts, but I don't think there is anyone here that didn't think he was a...

    Deadpool (2016)

    I am going to watch this movie so hard! They also convinced me to see it in IMAX with that clip before Star Wars.

    The Revenant (2015)

    I watched it at the theater this weekend, and I agree that it was a little long and drawn out. However, I'd rather let the director do that if it is his intent instead of the constant editing we hear about because some studio execs think a longer movie isn't going to sell as many tickets. Now...

    The Expanse

    I can't remember much of the plot to The Moon is a Harsh Mistress, as I read it around 35 years ago, but I'm going to say no, because shit is about to change drastically on this show. I'm pretty sure no one that hasn't read the books is able to even guess where it is headed.

    Torrents

    I got it as well. I think it is just a mass email. However, it did specifically mention the .com site, whereas I always access the .eu one, so I went ahead and clicked on the link and had it show my presence on the .com one as well. Not sure if that matters or not, probably not, but it is...

    They could have called him Superman: Red Sun!

    Star Wars: The Force Awakens (2015)

    I saw this opening night, and then the next night on IMAX (mainly an issue with me being too lazy to drive 30 miles just to return the tickets that I bought online but apparently can't be returned except at the actual box office, so if I'm going to drive that far, might as well just watch the...

    The Ridiculous 6 - This could turn it around for Adam Sandler

    And even without seeing it myself, I have to believe BoNN was a substantially better movie than Ridiculous Six (which I have seen, so I guess I'm part of the disease!).

    Yeah, I was gonna say, someone looked away for a moment when they were watching it seems.

    Sherlock

    That was it, thanks!

    Former coworker contacted me, think I might be getting scammed.

    This begs the question, where the fuck is Urgo these days??

    Funny, Strange, Random Pics

    Ah ok, thank you for the info. I had no idea, and probably never would have without someone spelling it out for me. I avoid that shit even more, and log into Facebook maybe once a month so don't even see my dumbass friends talking about shit like this. 14 though, yikes. Like I said, I...

    Supergirl

    And some of us don't feel that it is crap. It is fine that you do, but I happen to enjoy it.

    Sherlock

    I enjoyed the shit out of this episode, but I probably would have for any new Sherlock that was halfway decent. The only tinge of disappointment I had was that they didn't bring back Irene Adler for a little cameo at the end. I absolutely loved her character, and the actress, and she's...

    The King Henry Tapes (By Me!)

    The difference between Kvothe and King Henry is that at no point in time do you wish King Henry would die in a fire. Or any of the female characters for that matter, which I have to assume you wished many times while reading Rothfuss. I actually want to see more of the female characters in KH...

    First World Problems

    I don't understand why you wouldn't sign the card along with putting See ID? It just adds an extra layer of security. While all of this is pretty unfeasible for your standard stolen credit card, it is still one step easier if they steal your card (which you left unsigned) and then create a...

    Funny, Strange, Random Pics

    Am I supposed to know that she's under 18 just by looking? With that amount of makeup she could easily be 24 for all I know. Hell, I wouldn't be surprised if she's had work done from that picture.

    Supergirl

    I was hoping they kept Cat in the loop, actually. I know it wouldn't have worked very well, but the whole part where she disappears for hours at a time when a crisis arises and Cat doesn't put 2 and 2 together is pretty annoying too. I mean, she did, but not really. I sort of liked Cat being...

    The Shannara Chronicles

    I didn't hate it at least. It wasn't great, but Manu as Allanon is awesome, and Amberle is really fucking hot. I'm not a fan of Wil's actor but I guess he's all right for what they seem to be doing with his character. And yeah, I was impressed with the production value, most of it was pretty...

    Marvel Universe stuff

    That means there is still hope for Adam Warlock to have the Soul Gem!

    Ash vs Evil Dead

    Also, she specifically states that she's releasing every single thing in the book. I doubt that is leading to her somehow betraying them, I'd think she could do that without summoning them, since simply leaving them wherever they come from forever is a pretty good solution if you're a human.

    Hypothetical Girlfriend, Final Cut

    I don't like any of these (which I understand is the point of the exercise), but the "girlfriend" part is what ruins it I think. If she's just a girlfriend, fuck it, I'm taking the 10/10 that fucks like a pornstar but thinks I'm cheating. If you're saying this is going to be my future...

    What did you just read?

    Bought your friend's book (Kindle version, because no offense but fuck $17 for a book) because I like to support aspiring authors. And because the 1* reviews complained of gratuitous sex and violence. SOLD! No idea when I'll read it, but hopefully it is good and he writes more.

    J49: An Erotic Life

    Jesus Bisi. Looking through that site, I count 5 arrests in the last 13 months or so (1 under her married name). How is she even out long enough to get caught again? This must seriously be cutting into her whoring income.

    Star Wars: The Force Awakens (2015)

    I stood in line with my parents to watch the original Star Wars on opening day, and I loved this one, even though I can wish that a few things had been a little different. Overall it was about as close to what I wanted from a new Star Wars movie as anyone was likely to get. I particularly...

    He Never Died - with Henry Rollins

    Really disappointed that they gave so much of it away, but fuck I want to see this now anyway.

    What is your education level?

    BS in Aeronautical Engineering, never once worked in anything even vaguely related to the field. Much to my, and my parent's, disappointment. I like to blame the fact that I graduated right after the Berlin Wall fell and aeronautical engineers were unemployed in droves (all true), but let's...

    Upcoming SF&F Adaptations (or future disappointment)

    Yeah I kind of feel the same. I enjoyed it, but it pretty much was one of those stories that comes down to how you feel about the ending. If you hated it, you're going to think most of the rest was shit. I'm kind of in-between on the ending, as I see where he was going with it and the...

    I've never actually seen that video before. Prince Keg has made me believe in the power of love.

    Thieves Oil

    Yeah, the multiple quacks I work with have taken to just saying something like, "Yes, yes, we know you don't believe it, save your breath" and just dismissing me altogether when they start talking about stupid shit. I have two hardcore conspiracy ones that are just too far gone, but multiple...

    Supergirl

    Let's not kid ourselves about a couple of things. First, Jessica Jones was well-received (edit: sight unseen I mean, it being actually good is another matter) because it says Marvel, and right now anyone even remotely interested in this type of thing assumes it is worth checking out simply...

    Limitless

    I hope not, he needs to be knocking the bottom out of the boss's daughter. I love this show, and the fact that it changes every episode just adds to how awesome it is. I was dying with the giant baby head in the car.

    Supergirl

    radditsu, I get it, and I know you were more just speculating. First, this show actually is a little bit about her coming out from under Superman's shadow, so you have to give them some time to complete the journey. Second, WW: girlfriend would be a lot more blatant than "Red Tornado is a...

    Supergirl

    You realize this is a show for mass appeal, right? Just checking, because it seems like you guys are more worried about how she fits into the seventeen different versions of Supergirl than how entertaining, and more importantly popular, the show actually is. The vast majority of viewers...

    The Fast Food Thread

    I've had one of those keychains the last 4 or 5 years, just bought mine for next year last week in fact. And it works perfectly fine here in Sacramento, CA, so dunno what restriction you had previously. Sure it isn't very big, but if you're going anyway, what do you really want for a one...

    The 100

    Outside of stuff like Luther, it is possible this is my most anticipated returning show. Maybe Agent Carter is a tie, but I can't think of anything else I want to see more than those two.
