No matches today because of the rain... I don't remember it ever happening at the French since the clay courts are playable even when there is some light rain. Tomorrow will not be much better and the rest of the week will be overcast with some more rain on Thursday. With the courts unable to...

From a layman's perspective it sounds riskier to shoot the gorilla with a real bullet to try and kill it than it is to put it to sleep with an anesthesia rifle. Maybe it takes too long?

It will take OKC some serious mental fortitude to not melt down in game 7 after the scenario of this game 6. Let's hope it will be competitive and not the 654th blow out of these playoffs.

I think it's both... Thompson breaking all records as far as 3 pts shots made in a playoff game AND OKC shitting the bed with their last 6 or 7 possessions.

Adams is such a spectacular player!

Pretty clutch from Cristiano Ronaldo to score the decisive goal in a penalty shoot-out after playing a poor match in which he started cramping after 70 minutes. I can't begin to imagine the pressure one must feel at a time like this.

As mentioned above, Tsonga was in Nadal's part of the draw and he retired today when leading Gulbis 5-2 in the first set... adductor problem (possibly the return of a problem he had earlier in the year). So yeah... Grannolers, Thiem (clear winner of the battle of the youngsters), Gulbis and...

No Federer (back problems), no Monfils and after two pretty uneventful rounds in crappy weather, no more Nadal has he was nursing a left wrist injury and his doctors said he had to stop playing for a few weeks or risk having to stop playing for a few months... Nadal's retirement opens up a...

All I see is that OKC played a very meh half and they are still close behind. Will it be like game 1 where they creep past the Warriors at the end of the game or like game 2 where Curry suddenly has a God Mode moment, making all his shots to create an unassailable lead in a handful of minutes.

So... Jaime Murray?

Well... 4th quarter ended up being straight forward... Except in the third quarter of game 2, Curry has not shown MVP caliber play. How comes? OKC's defense or the fact he has not much of an impact on the game when he shoots poorly?

I would be surprised if that 4th quarter end up being straight forward...

Hahaha I don't watch that much basketball but I never saw a pass like the one Adams just did! It probably would have killed a spectator if it did not connect!

A guy makes a couple threes and suddenly the Raptors forget all about how they won game three and lead in game four... they managed to remember it just in time to close the game though. Funny conference finals so far!

Not a big fan of the "Let's add three rules no one knew about to make the plot move forward" bit with the Night King touching Bran. Also, good luck fleeing the White Walkers! And btw only Bronn and Gendry left.

Apparently OKC is now unable to miss a shot.

They first gave a technical to Carroll and after realizing on video review that it's the guy from Cleveland that actually hit James, they removed it. Can't you get a technical for flopping though?

Note to Djay: I am watching the game and stuff has not gone to shit (yet?).

I was wondering how badly the Cavs were curbstomping the Raptors, but, what a pleasant surprise, when I started watching the game, the two teams were almost tied! My smile did not last long...

It's not really Eragon though. They mentioned in several occasions how dragons where used for warfare and how dragons became smaller and smaller and how magic left the world and how having new and big dragons is an astonishing event, but riders? Nope.

What is in the pipeline as far as Marvel movies go before the next season? Maybe there is the return of Nick Fury somewhere in there? Or did he die at some point? I think I would have remembered that...

I don't know if free will exists, but I am pretty sure trying to say it does not exist based on that single experiment that is mentioned over and over is pants on head retarded because it does not withstand the simplest of contacts with reality.

Obviously, a body double would have burned to death!

Let me quote random internet poster 50ShadesofJimGrey: "Yes, because what corporate fat cat doesn't want all the ratings gold of media market 43 in the NBA Finals instead of market No. 6, represented by a team that has meant big ratings all year and the reigning two-time MVP?"

That was a strange game as both teams and several key players on both sides had long spells of terribad. As a result, I am not sure there is much to learn from it.

One down, three to go (two really). Interestingly, we are almost back to a pre red wedding situation. By this I mean a situation with many parties within Westeros and thin alliances. On that note, with Stannis dead, who is the Lord of Storm's End now? Tommen by virtue of being the last...

That recent Macbeth was pretty good, so there is that. And maybe I am a cynical mofo, but, when I hear out of place hip-hop in a trailer, I assume some bean counter was worried the theme of the movie might not interest black moviegoers...

Bronn, Littlefinger, Gendry and White Walkers still on the list. I am surprised by three of the four. On a side note, the flashback machine is an easy but good device to unveil mysteries and manage rhythm (lacking action this episode? No Problemo: let's do a flashback to a fight scene!).

Deus Ex Genealogia!

Looking at the plot summaries on IMDB it sounds like Civil War goes between episode 19 (3rd of May) and 20 (10th of May).

You are thinking of Podrick (who is not one of Robert's illegitimate son as far as I know?). I am talking about the guy that got leeched by Melissandre at Stanis' home and that Davos the Onion Knight helped escape on a rowboat never to be seen again. Gendry is the name (not seen since season 3)...

Still not shown this season: Bronn, Littlefinger, the illegitimate son of King Robert (lol), Osha and Rickon (not shown in season 5 though?), White Walkers, Olenna Tyrell (and her husband), Sam and Gilly...

Saw bad vietnamese action/heist movie. Ending credit song was dirty hip-hop by one of the cast members. Curiosity brought the cat on youTube: Same artist:

From the 22nd to the 30th of April the 18th edition of the Far East Film Festival was held in Udine, Italy. As its names implies, the festival focuses on movies from the Far East, but what its name does not say is that it focuses on popular cinema. I went to a very unhealthy 57 screenings during...

The only problem I see with Vikander being in Tomb Raider is that all the time she will spend shooting it would be better spent shooting a good movie. That said, there are some movies that by all metrics should be lame and end up being good.

About "getting it", I will agree that not everyone will be equally aware of the elegance of both the game design and level design of this game (it's no surprise that game designers and game critics alike have only very high praises for the game, since they are more likely to be sensitive about...
