    Yeah, the first two poltergeists are pretty scary if you're young. I know the clown scene in the first one was the scene my stepmom always said creeped her out even when she was older. Was talking with a neighbor about this topic yesterday, and he brought up the 70s remake of Invasion of the...

    Maybe not serious, but at least a hell of a lot more entertaining, but I think we agree with each other.

    Hah, same thing, I went to a private Catholic school when I grew up in New Orleans. It's no different than someone, somehow getting a hold of an old Playboy and sharing it with everybody. That's what you did when you were a kid, most people didn't turn out to be a weirdo.

    They actually filmed swamp thing on wadmala island up there in Charleston. Guy who taught me most of what I know about construction always talked about it. Adrienne barbeau and her amazing rack it's still legendary. No wonder you watched it all the time as a kid. You're a little bit older...

    Yeah, as a kid you would watch the same favorite movie of yours for a couple of months at least. The Last Starfighter, Space Hunter, Mad Max, RoboCop, Predator, any of the classics. I get used to be Saturday night a new movie always came out, and then it would run for at least 4 to 8 weeks...

    I think a lot of that lag had to do with movies still having the ability to reshow it in the theaters and such, and HBO was a relatively new thing at the time, so I'm guessing they were rights and different hoops to jump through before it could be aired. I honestly be interested in the...

    Alien I believe was 78 or 79. I guess if it popped up on HBO it would be what maybe a year year and a half later, because I think there was quite a bit more lag back then.

    I know that's what the red letter media guys keep talking about specifically with the Blumhouse business model. I guess it's also easy to have just a house with three or four actors and come up with some sort of story concept, shoot it over the span of a couple of weeks for a maybe a million...

    I want to say I was in third grade when I saw Alien. So how old are you at that time, seven or eight?

    The video store we had by my dad's used to be if you got a new release film, you could pick out a free old inventory movie. Latest and greatest video. They had two locations here in Houston and it was family owned. The dad who owned it and all of his family worked there was a super nice guy...

    Haha, go back a couple of pages and get to the root of this whole conversation or derail. @Chukzombi and I pretty much talked about all of the movies you're mentioning. With that being said, Alien is still probably the most scary movie experience I ever had as a kid.

    Had to go back and rewatch that one. Probably still pretty fun movie. I vaguely remember being in middle school or something spending the night at a buddy's house and there was some sort of nightmare on elm Street Marathon around Halloween, and his parents ordered pizza and him his little...

    Haha, you're right, he did blast the wheelchair didn't he, and it was pretty cheesy that Freddy just runs up and stabs him. Sorry it's been a long time since I saw it. There's also that kid who was up horn dog with the nurse or whatever whatever. I don't remember the kids name that was the...

    Dude the d&d nerd was The wizard master and Freddy's magical wheelchair killed him. It's another guy who got led like a puppet to fall off the building. God damn you, thought you knew your shit my man. For shame... Part two is pretty gay though. Part 3 is a really good movie and that's...

    Yeah that's the seen I mentioned the other day. I remember seeing it for the first time and it just looks so surreal, it's pretty damn creepy as a kid. I still think the first one's the only scary one.

    My nephew loves them. He's a picky eater but it's one of the things he's eaten since he was a little kid, and loves them. I just remember since I was little it was something my mom always fed us, and when she was being lazy and we needed to have a vegetable, she would just quarter one up and...

    I hear you. At least the last movie didn't have to cover any of that, and it was just a good Batman movie. I kind of like the Zack Snyder Ben Affleck Batman stuff too. And have to cover any of the other BS. I don't have high hopes, but it'd be nice to get thrown a bone every now and then...

    That sucks, I know some people say they just taste the bitter to them, kind of the same deal with cilantro tasting like dish soap. Great way to use them though. Man, I hope we have a lot of cucumbers on the way. I've always liked them since I was a kid, probably one of my favorite...

    It's just a weird depth of field maybe from the lenses they're using. Could be some post-production effect, and I think there's stuff out there that allows you to get Boca, for that blurry background, but typically it's all across the background when you've got a subject in the foreground, not...

    Thought this was interesting. Been enjoying a lot from these guys. It's no BS professional chef tips and tricks. Kind of wish he would have done triple cooked as a baseline though along with everything since that's the big culinary standard over there.

    I could give two shits about the joker movie, but what's this brave and bold Batman? Is he going to be gay and black? Sorry I don't keep up with the comics or the animated stuff. That is good news though after making another film. Hopefully it'll somehow tie into the penguin series. I...

    Edit: sorry catching up, @Utnayan answered it Are they going to make another DLC, for some reason I thought this was the only one they were going to do? If so that's awesome. I mean it's like why the hell wouldn't you, just a license to print money.

    Now they're white too, and doing white people things. Is this cultural appropriation or acceptance, I don't know, but it smells like progress! Also that artist looks like a total fag. Probably doesn't know how to change the damn tire, or what a level 5 fireball does damage wise.

    I was going to try to test it out after my game updated this evening, and jump on my old character just to see if there was a big difference. I just remember it really making some bosses 10 times easier, and harder mobs like the big knights and the capital work pretty much trivialized. Kind...

    Is there any talk of them doing another film with Pattinson, or will he maybe show up in the series? Honestly really enjoyed the last one. Watched it not too long ago for a second viewing, and it was one of the better movies I've seen in a handful of years. I would actually be excited for...

    And the fact of the matter, I could give to shits. Despite maybe burning whatever manuscripts, notes, or outlines he has, he also burned all the patience, good will and appreciation from fans much earlier. I hope the NY Giants all die in a fiery plane crash, and it just so happens to crash on...

    That's what I was rocking. Made some pretty tough fights a hell of a lot easier. I think they nerfed the stagger damage though, don't believe it's near as good as it was when the game came out.

    Sometimes real life happens in the middle of a campaign. We had a couple of instances over the years where somebody ended up having a dropout. I know the last big campaign my buddy was running, and he's probably the best dungeon master we've had over the years. He's run multiple campaigns...

    Yeah I agree, problem is I have a hard time passing up all of that optional stuff. I think that's why despite maybe thinking two or three months into the game I still didn't finish it. I did the same thing with the newer fallout games and Skyrim and stuff. I might have a goal of going to...

    Wonder if there's a website or app or something that you can flag a dungeon or cave you've completed, for a boss you killed, that's maybe interactive. I thought about just making a damn spreadsheet this go around. Probably be easier. I'll just be nice to have a list of stuff that I know I...

    I know a lot of you guys have played it multiple times, then I only played it for that. For a few months after it had come out.

    Amen. I'm honestly thinking about just rolling a samurai and playing through everything again, and when I get to the point I can somewhat compare to my old character, I can then choose which one I want to push forward. That's not us that the game isn't fun, and I'm in no massive hurry to get...

    I reinstalled earlier today. I was looking up my steam BS, and it really has been almost 2 years if not over since I was playing it, but when I did it was for a good number of months just combing through the game, trying to be as thorough as possible. I probably won't even remember what...
