    Prometheus (Alien 0) - 1 Year Later

    I have to say that this comment really stuck out in Lithose's post " And why did he pet the deadly penisvagina? Because the plot needed a monster, and without him making a decision that went completely against his established character--there would be no monster" I didn't really think...

    What directors do you trust the most?

    Never watched his Robin Hood but 1492 was pretty much unwatchable.

    What directors do you trust the most?

    I agree with the above, while I haven't loved all his movies, it is a given almost everything he puts out has an even better directors cut.

    What directors do you trust the most?

    I forgot to mention this guy, Guillermo del Toro. not sure he has disappointed me yet.

    What directors do you trust the most?

    I'm probably must a huge fanboy, but I will pretty much try about anything from Joss Whedon, Zack Snyder and I have to agree about Edgar Wright his movies are awesome.

    R.I.P.D Rest In Peace Department

    Cast looks good, but totally agree with this statement, idea seems so unoriginal. Doubt ill see this in the theater but will give it a try when it becomes widly available, sometimes rip-offs can be better than the original but somhow I doubt this is the case here. Still seems like a fun ride.

    Is Christopher Nolan the most overrated director of all time?

    Gonna have to agree I absolutely do not enjoy woody Allen movies, if I was voting for most over-rated he would be my vote but everyone is going to have their own opinion based on their preference. I was also thinking of Lucas but really he hasn't been overrated for a long time, at this point...

    Prometheus (Alien 0) - 1 Year Later

    I'm pretty sure she is Swedish, but is you want more of her skin check out the foreign version of girl with the dragon tattoo, she is all nude and lesbian in that.

    Now You See Me

    Interested to hear how this is, the trailer makes it look interesting and getting some of the zombiland gang back together is promising, gotta love some Woody Harrelson

    Prometheus (Alien 0) - 1 Year Later

    I deal with an awful lot of scientists pretty regularly, genius level intelegance does not always, or even usually, translate to common sense. Just because they are the smartest people in the world doesn't mean they will know how to deal with situations outside of their expertise. I also got...

    Pacific Rim

    Prometheus (Alien 0) - 1 Year Later

    Waiting to rewatch when a directors cut comes out, pretty much every Riddley Scot movie improves immensely with a directors cut.

    Keep telling myself I'll take a month off breaker to build it up and have a longer read, but each week I read the new one anyway, just too good

    Boston Marathon Explosion - Today's Topics: Public Schools

    Don't forget the Picts, original or at least iron age on inhabitants of Scotland until they merged with the Gaels

    Thor: The Dark World.

    Looking forward to this, my main issue with the first one was the short timeline, Thor goes from being a douche frat boy to humble and compassionate in just one day. Otherwise pretty good especially the battle with the frost giants. Only marvel owned property I didn't care for was Eric bana...

    Definitely liked the first movie better than the comic, this looks pretty good, I'll give it a try, I'm with Tarrant, I had no Idea that was Carry until they told us.

    Cruise to Cozumel

    Agree with above, if you dive then dive in Cozumel, it is an amazing place a for that. If you don't dive then the other ideas are good, I personally hated the strip right when you get off the boat, dirty, stinky and lots of locals yelling at you to buy there overpriced crap, if you can get away...

    Desktop Computers

    I have been watching prices on 7850 for a while, and now Nvidia has put out the 650ti boost which looks pretty nice, much better than the original 650, so I ask which do I go for? Or should I be looking at something else entirely, I want to keep it around 180 or less on price.

The Caribbean was great stopped at Cozumel, roatan Honduras, belize and a few other amazing places. If you...

    Cowboy Bebop

    Loved this series, wish I still had my limited edition collectors set, but a bum broke in and stole it years ago. I'm gonna have to re-watch it now, I can barely remember anything, much less the ending, but man episode 5 was classic, maybe my all time favorite anime episode ever.

    [manga] Everything Else

    They gotta get him ready to be the only one who can stop the 9 arts in the end. By far my favorite current read each week, I wish the chapters were longer and came out every day.

    RUSH - Ron Howard's 1970s F1 Movie

    Derp, my computer cut off the F1 part of the title, I came in here thinking this was going to be about the band. I know nothing about F1 racing but this looks pretty interesting.

    I second riding lawn mower, I hate mowing lawns and a rider makes it much faster easier and feel less like mowing the lawn, downside is you miss out on so.e of the exercise benefits.

    Lenovo ThinkPad is still the best work laptop in my opinion, i wish i could convince my work, we get dell latitudes which are "ok" nothing really wrong with them if you spec them correctly, though i guess it also depends on what you do for work, mine is for development but if you just need...

    we have been having similar issues, I have found out that zillow is unreliable, they don't update very quickly so houses that have been pending or sold for a while are still showing up as for sale. Especially in my market where things are getting snatched up within days of hitting the market. I...

    Handguns

    SIG p229 compact version of tue 226, both very common side arms for police and FBI. And they come in pretty much any caliber. As an alternate if you just want one handgun is to look at the 250 which is modular so you can buy kits to change the caliber.

    Coffee thread

    I hate Keurig coffee usually tastes like watery shit, but the nespresso commercial gets me interested, anyone have any experience with them, especially the latissima range? For regular coffee I'm happy French pressing but I would like a noce easy cappuccino or late whenever the mood hits me.

    I'm having the same issue with shitty uploads, not sure how to improve it, I've just been getting points to pay off the hit and runs. If anyone has any hints I too would appreciate it.
