Re: “Aquaman” Trailer

I feel like the following conversation took place at some point: associate producer: “Heh, well at least it can’t be worse than Batman vs. Superman!” writer: (cracks knuckles) “Hmm. Hold my beer.” I didn't come away as interested as most MCU films but it wasn't terrible either. If nothing else the ...

Re: Mortal Engines Official Trailer

yeah. It just breaks one's suspension of disbelief. Too many questions start coming and it just gets your mind off-track. And the sad thing is that if the silly cities thing was just part of the premise, and they hung a great story around it, I'd be perfectly happy. I mean FTL travel, phasers, tran...

I usually go directly to the forum page anyway but I just checked the main page. The music played one through then stopped. (latest FF, for the record)

Re: Third Dylann Roof Fan Arrested For Threatening Mass Kill

As a rule of thumb, it's generally true that if your beliefs insist a group of other people must die to make the world right, you're looking the wrong way for the problem. A mirror would be a much more socially responsible tool to employ here than an automatic rifle.* *in severe cases pointing your ...

Re: Midterm ELections: 49% Voter Turnout Highest in 104 year

Basically various laws that make it more difficult for people in certain areas to vote... Whether it is by limiting times to vote, times to register, or clearing names from registries after periods of voter activity. Varies from era to era. Don't things like this effect all voters, not just certain...

Re: Midterm ELections: 49% Voter Turnout Highest in 104 year

A distinction should be made between regulated capitalism and true socialism. The latter has serious problems when put in practice, and it's patently not what most on the economic left desire. Unrestrained capitalism has major flaws too, however. What I haven't seen yet is a good proposal to balance...

Re: Once Upon A Deadpool | Official Trailer

At first I wasn't sure what the point of releasing a watered-down version of an existing film (let alone a watered down version of a character who isn't mild by nature). I must say I'm becoming more curious about just what will differentiate this from DP2 since it's being shown that a bit more of a...

Re: Midterm ELections: 49% Voter Turnout Highest in 104 year

I read a while back that the focus US politicians have on "winning over the moderates" is misplaced; there really are no moderates, or at least so few that chasing their votes is a waste of time. Rather, elections hinge on motivating your own voters to actually turn up and vote. Which is ...

Re: TIME's 2018 Person of the Year

I doubt Trumples is even interested, after all he's been there once already (2016?). Anyway this is the group that chose Adolph Hitler and Joseph Stalin, twice for Uncle Joe by the way. Kind of makes me question their judgement or perhaps their criteria. Well it's not called good person of the year...

Stan Lee dies age 95

Marvel comics co-creator dead at 95. I never read comics but certainly appreciate the downstream work of Marvel Studios in translating them to the silver screen.
