    Alien: Covenant (2017)

    Curious, if "Alien" and "Bladerunner" were the two great movies, what was the good one? Gladiator? Always enjoyed "Legend" at least, but I guess that's because I saw it as a kid, and Tim Curry played one of his coolest roles in it. "Kingdom of Heaven" was entertaining, but only if you saw the...

    Will third or fourth "These Final Hours". Much better then I expected. Sort of an "On the Beach" but modernized.

    The Man From U.N.C.L.E.

    Depends on what you've raised him or her on, but it's probably fine. I'd be more worried about them being bored or not understanding shit.

    Is the new one "Finders Keepers"? If so, I'd appreciate a quick review. Been thinking of blowing an Audible credit on it.

    Byr, did they ever do an update on Silver Surfer, or is he still relatively the same as launch barring a few immediate patches after release?

    The Man From U.N.C.L.E.

    I enjoyed this, as well, but especially more because it got me out of having to see "Ricki and whatever the fuck". Dodged a bullet on that one, and glad that I ended up watching a fun summer flick instead of some shitty, post menopause romantic comedy shitfest.

    The Gift (2015)

    Caught it this afternoon. Biggest reason I went is due to the positive reviews it's been getting. Some similarities to Oldboy, but pretty loose. Good bet it was used for inspiration on some level. Be prepaired for a slow-burn film (which isn't a bad thing). I knew this going in, but it tends...

    Dan Simmons' Hyperion - SyFy Mini-series

    I did the audio versions, too. Was sort of a bummer when I got to the second book and found it was just one narrator, but he does do a fantastic job for the rest of the series. The first book is still one of the best narrations I've found for any audiobook, and really made it a tough act to...

    Dan Simmons' Hyperion - SyFy Mini-series

    Read the fucking books. That is all... Seriuosly, even if this wasn't getting adapted for TV, the books should be on your list to finish. Edit: I'd give you a better reason, but I have to wake up early so I can go fishing tomorrow. I'm sure someone else from the forum will confirm...

    Dan Simmons' Hyperion - SyFy Mini-series

    Not sure how much I trust for them to get it right, or if it can even be done in such a format, but going to remain hopeful: http://arstechnica.com/the-multivers...-event-series/

    Only Detta Walker if you want to count her. Don't believe there are any others, and even she lends her savagery to the benefit of the group later in the DT novels when Susanna needs it.

    Thanks for posting about the coupon Helldiver. Now it's just figuring out what I want to order. I did find a pretty good writeup on another forum giving an overall description of the game and factions. Found some of it to be pretty helpful: http://forums.thehobbykingdom.com/ya....aspx#post8163

    A buddy of mine started playing it with a group in College Station, and is really enjoying it. He's been trying to get me to buy a squad, and I'm pretty close to pulling the trigger. I've only played a couple of matches with a display starter set the local store has out. I could see it being...

    What Abe said. Plus, if you open it up full blast with my current 18mg fluid it'll burn the hell out of your lungs and throat. Learned this the hard way. If I'm using any of my high percentage stuff, I'm having to burn it at 10V or less and play with the airflow settings. Some flavors or...

    Thanks gents for all the info and advice. Ended up snagging an Eleaf iStick 50w and a Kanger Nano and a Plus. Really enjoying the setup so far. So much more flavor then my old pen style deals. Only problem is I have to start downgrading all my fluids to lower nicotine, which isn't a bad...

    What's the worst movie you've seen at the theatre?

    I've seen a lot of shitty movies in the theater. Fell asleep during Street Fighter, Ghost Dad, and Wing Commander. Saw House, Alone in the Dark, and Bloodrayne, because after the first Uwe Boll film if you go drunk enough they're pretty funny. The only movie I've ever walked out on was this:

    Alright, so I've been using ecigs for well almost two years at this point. Only ever used the eGo pen style batteries with variable voltage, and different aspire clearomizer tanks (currently using the K1 series with the ceramic 1.6 BVC). Use normally 60 PG / 40 VG liquid either bought from...

    Yeah, he could come back as the fucked up, hook handed, reaper lord on a quest for revenge. Actually just finished watching the last episode of the season, and I'm in agreement that it really is a diamond in the rough for current TV shows. I'm surprised by how much I've enjoyed it, and it's a...

    So after finally opening about 40 GvG packs, I finally pulled a legendary. Got Mekgineer Thermaplugg. Is he useful in any deck? Seems to be just a gimmicky win more card.

    The Secret World

    Don't know if they've said anything, but they probably will sometime this year. I think they're working on the last episode that ties up the Chapter 1 storyline for good. Supposed to have the last section of Tokyo, a raid, and something else. My guess would be that once it comes out, a few...

    Haven't eaten at a GC in eons, probably the early 90's. I remember their breakfast buffet being acceptable, better then Shoney's (but that's not saying much). Pizza Ranch on the other hand might be worth a trip if I ever go far enough west to see one, because who doesn't need pizza and fried...
