    What classic childhood movie would you like to be bastardized and remade by current hollywood.

    You know what. How about a live action format version of... I used to love this as a kid. Pretty sure I got the VHS tape from McDonald's when I was really young.

    Everquest - Live Servers

    Another thing that made this game great is all of the memorable experiences. There's a reason why threads like this (and emulator versions of the game) keep popping up. It was a significant game in a lot of peoples lives. We made a lot of both friends and enemies as a result.

    Absolutely. That could have easily been a "season finale" and I would have been happy with that. Regarding Gundam Build Fighters Try Island Wars... It was an anime. I was nice to revisit some of the characters that I like, but the story was pretty poor. Oh well. At least Orange was...

    Central PA, moving there.

    When it comes to Central PA, unfortunately there really isn't much to do. Gettysburg is the biggest draw. You could also go to where flight 900 went down during 9/11. I think they built a museum for it. I'd suggest visiting the Dunkin' Donuts, but it closed. I heard that story on O&J. It...

    Another good episode of Soma. It wasn't as great as the development episode 2 weeks ago, but it did set the stage nicely for an outclassed chef. And the surprise "sword" after the credits was a nice touch. Next week should be very entertaining.

    I would say definitely keep rental cars unlocked. However, people that live here lock their shit all the time. Every time you're walking through a parking lot and someone stops, you hear the distinctive "click" of the doors locking.

    Zika. The Abandon Florida Thread.

    Doing some quick math, the chart leads you to believe that "Very" is 10%, "Somewhat" is 0%, "Not Very" is 5%, and "Not at all" is 75%. Those chart skills are real good.

    The last Friday of every month, on a small pear next to Ala Moana Beach, they have a huge food festival. All of the gormet food trucks from the island get together and sell shit. They also have a theme to try and hit every month. In June, the theme was Bacon. In July, it was Barbecue. This...

    We usually visit japan once a year, just to see the family. Her parents have a comfortable house with 3 bedrooms, so we stay there while in Niigata. Hotels while in other areas. As far as dual citizenship, she has no interest in becoming an American citizen. And America (or maybe Japan?)...

    My wife is a nurse. Her new job is in the neurological floor at Queens Hospital in Honolulu. It's not usually a "crazy people" floor, but they do show up there periodically.

    I was the same. As an "end game" Wizard, I would play a lot. On random nights where we had already beaten everything, I would help lower level guilds clear some shit just because I wouldn't be bored any loinger. Granted, I was just damage, but I was a LOT of damage. There was a time early...

    Yes. I was a "favorite" for Wizards on Tarew Marr, because I outgeared everyone else. My resists were all in the 300 range, while still having a ton of health and mana. Well, all those resists meant shit. Constant attacks of Lure of Ice and Lure of Lightning kept resisting on my opponent...

    Not gonna argue with you on that one. I was a dumb kid. Glad I grew out of that self-imposed shell. Anyway, WoW did have a few awesome quests. The long string of quests for opening the gates of Ahn'Qiraj. Granted, only a few people were ever able to complete the entire quest chain before...

    The very first word in the movie is "Shit" by Seth Rogan's hotdog character. I laughed a lot at this. Very enjoyable. Very silly. I can't imagine ever watching this on DVD, but it was fun seeing in the theater.

    No, it's because they "give" you max level and great gear in WoW. People have no idea how to play their classes. The last break I took was the end of Lich King. I skipped all of Pandaria, but came back during it's gaming to try the Cataclysm content. By the time I was max level, I had...

    My first exploit was a real one. I say exploit, because it wasn't just roof running (that shouldn't be allowed). It was something legitimately broken. It didn't exist until Luclin, which worked out great. I made a ton of plat early into Luclin using Manaburn to farm Dragons. We would kill...

    What classic childhood movie would you like to be bastardized and remade by current hollywood.

    This is a really tough question. It has to be a movie that has a chance to earn a lot of money. Otherwise they wouldn't waste their time. At the same time, it has to be something that you like, but don't love (so it doesn't corrupt your memory too much). That's really tough. The only thing...
