    Home Improvement

    I still use my EGO edger, trimmer, and blower. But I also moved to a backpack blower and really only use the hand blower after cutting and edging. Backpack for leaves in the fall. All the reading about the mowers just didn't excite me and we have about 3/4 an acre to cut. So I just got a gas...

    that’s crazy… I used these on the kennel I built for our German Shepherd. She’s 80lbs and has torn apart the inside of the door, but the latches have had zero issue. Can’t remember if I used the included screws or just what I had laying around in the shop. I probably need to rebuild the door...

    Transformers One (2024)

    Some white privilege up in here. I had to play with GoBots growing up.

    Immaculate (2024)

    Just finished. It was pretty bland. No real new ground or anything that hasn't been done in this genre or style. No real comments on Sweeney. She has a few lines at the beginning and then spends the last 3/4 of the movie screaming. No nudes. Best you get is a profile shot of her in 3rd...

    Smite 2

    They had this in their FAQ regarding Skins specifically. I know when DotA2 changed to Source 2 there were issues with a few skins and things (if I'm remembering correctly, it seems right).

    Malazan Book Of The Fallen

    SubPress just announced a third printingt of Gardens and Deadhouse Gates due to issues with the original second printing. So if anyone was interested in picking up some really nice copies for your shelf.

    Robert Jackson Bennett

    I had to check my shelf but this is from 2020. My only signed and lettered edition from SubPress. It has been four years so no idea if rights would even transfer to me if they ever did a Founders release, and no rumors I’ve heard from SubPress release schedule with plans. May need to resize...

    Watched Tora! Tora! Tora! last night. Haven’t seen it in probably 25 years. It does a great job of presenting the procedural and intelligence issues leading up to the attack (whether purposeful or coincidental, the errors, not the presentation). You can't help but watch it and go "seriously?" at...

    Parasyte: The Grey

    I’ve been slowly watching this in the background when nothing else is up or I’m bored. It isn’t great, mildly entertaining. It is strange but most of what I’m watching, or have watched recently, has been Korean reality, drama, horror. Just trying to think off the top of my head… Devil’s Plan...

    MaXXXine

    I definitely enjoyed Pearl and they nailed it in the same ways that the successful episodes of WandaVision did. Or at least the episodes I liked. Had no idea about the backstory of it being made, pretty cool. Looking forward to Maxxxine more now.

    MaXXXine

    Just finished X and Pearl. X was the better movie. Pearl was good but different style. X had some really good scenes and compositing or layering of events. Somewhat heavy handed but I liked it. Pearl seemed like an excuse to have Mia Goth carry a solo film and give her writing credits. Her...

    Think you have that backwards. X is the 1970s Porn one and Pearl is the 1920s one. Rewatching X right now but never saw Pearl.

    Yeah I’m pretty much in for whatever A24 drops, even stuff outside of my typical genre. They released a trailer for something else the other day called Janet Planet which looks fine. Everyone loves movies about retards. I’ll give Ti West a shot here. Haven’t seen all his stuff but what I have...

    General Gaming News and Discussion

    I don't even look at the TV during pauses anyways and usually just let the commercials play to go get a water or clean up kid toys. I've seen some ads with my Roku Stick that were either on the Roku TV channels or an app, can't even remember now, where when it is paused the show goes in to the...

    Oppenheimer (2023)

    We tried to go back and watch Fat Man and Little Boy after this and didn’t make it through the entire thing. Oppenheimer was great though. It took a little bit to settle in to the time hoping but wasn’t hard to keep track once you get a handle on everything.

    Kinds of Kindness (2024)

    It is unfortunate Poor Things had the pedo angle because otherwise I actually really enjoyed it. You can do the whole Bildungsroman without resorting to kid fucking, but apparently not today. Also really enjoyed The Lobster too, but haven’t seen anything else of his.

    Road House

    Off the rails and in to the baby vomit filled lake of terrible due almost entirely to McGreggor’s acting inability and the terrible fight work cranked up to 11 (see above re: wooden stakes). When it is focused on Jake’s quiet drifter character type it is entirely serviceable as a bad/normal...

    A lot of rumors of cutting wet wood causing activations too because it changes the current enough to trigger the sensor. But I don’t remember seeing any actual evidence of it happening.

    Have done the exact same thing on two occasions. Once I had a bad kick back that was 100% my fault. Came inside immediately and wife said “that was quick. Thought you were going to be out there all afternoon.” On another occasion I was getting close to wrapping up and actually put the saw blade...

    A few years back when I watched this (post is somewhere in here) I also watched this at the same time. There was one other movie within this “genre” but I’m having trouble remembering the name. Doors was good though. Liked it. Don’t 100% remember Portals...

    Just started this yesterday based on a recommendation from a friend. First couple of episodes are good. Missed this thread when it came out and have avoided spoilers other than to read that season 1 ended well.

    It'll be interesting to see what comes out of it. Other than the patents on the technology Sawstop seems to be okay with "whatever" liability may come from use. That's in quotes b/c I obviously have no idea or if it is even relevant. Knowing how litigious we are my guess is that there's risk in...

    I'm fine with this too. The moral of the story is no one needs to see it. Bad Road House remake or standalone bad.

    Road House

    There’s any number of “loner walks in to a town” to clean it up movies. This could have 100% been its own thing and not a Road House remake. Give it a unique title and no one has any expectations other than watching Donnie Darko beat some guys up. It wasn’t great at all but it fit the mold of...

    I’ve just finished all the audiobooks last week on my road trip back home and they're easily my favorite "new" series. Will possibly be jarring hearing someone else play SecUnit instead of Kevin Free, but I'm excited for this either way. Audible has both the standard audiobook version and the...

    http://www.imdb.com/title/tt11540726/ Resurrection (2022).. for some reason the IMDB link isn't unfurling, or whatever you call it. This was pretty good. Slow burn and not a ton really happens except for Rebecca Hall going a little crazy. She really sells the movie and is likely the main...

    Alien: Romulus (2024)

    It could be an M41A variant but they really messed up placing the carry handle so far forward on the barrel. It makes it seem like a subgun and not a pulse rifle. Xeno pedia actually has some good information on the weapons that Armat Battlefield Systems developed vs Yutani. I ended up nerding...
