- This reminds me: Cuaron hasn't had a movie out since Children of Men? Hurry up, yo. -- nm - TFox Jun 5, 08:57
- Speaking of books alone, I don't know why I ever picked up another HP book after Chamber of Secrets. Easily the weakest of the series. - Mop Jun 5, 06:54
- I don't know that i've seen one of the HP movies that I'd give above a C. - Cuzzin Todd Jun 5, 06:51 2
  - I don't know that i've seen one of the HP movies. -- nm - Danedukenuuk Jun 5, 06:53 1

- I'm seen as trolly? Really? Really, very surprising... but I guess I do get feisty about sports. - flavorize Jun 4, 22:30 [Backboard] 11
  - You should really try some personal attacks. They're fun once you get the hang of em. -- nm - TFox Jun 5, 08:40

      - That hurts, coming from fDignan. -- nm - Mop Jun 5, 08:37
  - I've never seen it... - kelly Jun 5, 05:49
  - I think like Amanda said, she may be confusing you with other "Fs." You probably haven't spent enough time around to have developed a 'personality' -- nm - MojaveMeg Jun 4, 22:50 3
    - This and what dignan said. Post more, yo! -- nm - amanda in motion Jun 5, 09:43
    - She was probably thinking of Facto. nm - Dignan Jun 5, 07:13
    - Cool. Thanks! Makes sense -- nm - flavorize Jun 4, 23:23

all my AAA batteries are dead. stupid rechargables. -- nm - Beryllium Jun 4, 21:57 1
- I've got dozens of Duracell AAA's which are actually Sanyo Eneloops (the kind that don't lose their charge over time). Safeway was clearing them out. - Mop Jun 5, 06:51
I just went to look at the HSX movie and Life forums. My brain hurts now. I don't think I've been there for about a year. -- nm - Trish Jun 4, 21:43 7
- What is Life? -- nm - psilotum Jun 4, 23:32 1
  - The new Misc, IIRC. (Or was I supposed to say Life is arb or Life is goo or something?) -- nm - mara Jun 5, 09:05
- it's like Manhattan after it got turned into a maximum security prison -- nm - moles Jun 4, 21:56
- I haven't been back since they started fining ports for inactivity. -- nm - Beryllium Jun 4, 21:45 3
  - I don't think they are actually doing that yet. -- nm - H-Mogul Jun 4, 22:37 2
    - really? I thought they were going to start that last jan/feb? -- nm - zeitgeist Jun 4, 23:31 1
      - They announced it but haven't implemented it yet. My guess is they won't, now -- nm - Roger More Jun 5, 05:05
25 women dressed as Boba Fett.... -- (link) - Remlik Jun 4, 21:31 6
- Wow. Meth seems to have been involved in a great many of those pictures, and a visit to the clinic will surely be in order afterward. -- nm - Mop Jun 5, 07:33
- And guys are suppose to want to pick them up wearing that? -- nm - Karl_S Jun 5, 01:15
- Exactly as sexy as it sounds. - Beryllium Jun 4, 22:10 3
  - Yeah, but pixie just went off to have some "private time." -- nm - ReluctantCynic Jun 4, 22:58 2
    - gotta help him at some point. -- nm - Remlik Jun 5, 08:37
    - Anything that gets rid of pixie is a good thing. -- nm - Spawn Jun 4, 23:47
POTC: What an utter waste of a book deal. I wonder if, through all the rewrites, anyone bothered to say this didn't make any sense. Still, C+ -- nm - Mop Jun 4, 20:33 1
- Did the pirates finally eat the tourists? -- nm - Beryllium (iPhone) Jun 4, 21:08
What in the what?! Whoa. -- nm - Beryllium (iPhone) Jun 4, 20:01 1

halo -- nm - Remlik Jun 4, 19:55 9
- I have no headphones at the moment, so online play kinda sucks -- nm - Beryllium Jun 4, 21:25 5
  - but then you wouldn't have to listen to spawn yapping, which would be awesome -- nm - moles Jun 4, 21:27 4
    - there's a mute button for that. But then you lose the hilarity of Spawn cursing Crash's sudden but inevitable betrayal -- nm - Beryllium Jun 4, 21:29 3
      - plus 10 ST points for the Wash quote (nm) - howie Jun 4, 22:28
      - life should have a mute button for spawn -- nm - moles Jun 4, 21:31 1

- He has great bones and looks pretty astonishing in person, for a guy... - OAE Jun 4, 19:55
- I think he's just mumifying as he ages. -- nm - Max Jun 4, 19:46
Oh, heads up. McDonald's new frozen strawberry lemonade is muy bien. The only thing that would make it better is a jigger of Sapphire gin. -- nm - Trish Jun 4, 19:16 5
- bring a flask -- nm - zeitgeist Jun 4, 20:45 2
  - I don't think you'd get an ideal saturation by just pouring it on -- nm - Beryllium Jun 4, 21:36 1
    - ah, solved: bring a seltzer bottle of gin, and just give it a spritz every few sips. -- nm - Beryllium Jun 4, 21:37
- you know what i've been digging? New Amsterdam gin. It's no Sapphire, but its very drinkable and affordable as hell. - TFox Jun 4, 19:39 1
  - My summer drink of choice is gin & tonic or gin & lemonade. I've even made popsicles and sorbet out of the latter. - Trish Jun 4, 20:31
I give Thor a solid B+ - Stephen Jun 4, 19:14
omg, Kyle MacLachlan is so young. -- nm - loosilu Jun 4, 19:03 2

"Hey waves, Let's party eh eh" -- nm - Bacon Jun 4, 19:02
Dr. Who spoilers.... - Remlik Jun 4, 18:59 1
- Yeah...Didn't see that coming...And next weeks looks good -- nm - amoxy Jun 4, 19:02
X-Men: First Class (B-) - Dano Jun 4, 18:54 17
- Also, as I was watching it I kept thinking that the actress playing Emma Frost was distractingly bad. Didn't know who it was until I saw the credits. -- nm - Dano Jun 4, 19:01 13
  - Yeah, she was awful. nm - Dignan Jun 4, 19:05
  - January Jones must hate life... like all of it. Every single piece of life on this earth... including her own. -- nm - Buzz Jun 4, 19:02 2
    - LOL, Check out this quote from her IMDB page - amoxy Jun 4, 19:34 1
      - She's not very ......deep, is she. -- nm - Trish Jun 4, 19:37
  - The director thought she sucked. (nm) - David Jun 4, 19:02 8
    - And to think...he has Claudia Schiffer at home, Jennifer Lawrence on set...and he picks January Jones. - Will Hunting Jun 4, 19:27
    - I bet he's regretting she didn't -- nm - Remlik Jun 4, 19:05 6
      - Yeah, like you'd really like to stick your knob in an iced glory hole. - Trish Jun 4, 19:14 5
        
        I just had a visual of that - eag Jun 4, 19:52
        
        we're not talking about Truman here. -- nm - Remlik Jun 4, 19:41 3
        
        wha? -- nm - tRuMaN Jun 4, 20:25 2
        
        Aparently Remlik the Bald thinks your attracted to icy bitches -- nm - eag Jun 4, 20:49
        
        On the plus side, it woiuld cool you off. -- nm - Trish Jun 4, 20:35
- Max: Second Class (F) -- nm - moles Jun 4, 18:55 2
  - I don't feel tardy. -- nm - Max Jun 4, 19:45 1
    - Your socks are too loose. -- nm - David Jun 4, 19:48
I am going into even another direction. Harry Potter 3 something Azkaban. - Bacon Jun 4, 18:52 13
- I ... can't tell the difference between the movies. -- nm - loosilu Jun 4, 19:07 3
  - They're not rocket science. Yes, they're somewhat formulaic, but each book/movie builds on the previous ones. Honestly, they're all very distinct. -- nm - Trish Jun 4, 20:26 2
    - The first few books were, but after 4 ended it all melds together in an indistinguishable blob. -- nm - Cuzzin Todd Jun 5, 07:03
    - Exactly. -- nm - Spawn Jun 4, 20:42
- B+ ... That movie is much tighter than the first 2 -- nm - Will Hunting Jun 4, 18:56
- A. Azkaban is where the story levels up. -- nm - David Jun 4, 18:55 4
  - Yes. (I mean, if the first one was an A-, they will probably all be A's for him here on out.) -- nm - TFox Jun 4, 19:15 2
    - If the first was an A-, he's going to be Bery-like grading from here out. -- nm - Will Hunting Jun 4, 19:25 1
      - Hairy Potter and the Sufferer of Gigli: F -- nm - Beryllium (iPhone) Jun 4, 19:29
  - Yup. Azkaban is probably the best one out of the first five. -- nm - Jelly Jun 4, 19:06
- is that the one where he has to solve a mystery at hogwarts with ron and hermoine and then face off against voldemort in the end? -- nm - moles Jun 4, 18:54 2
  - I have only seen 2 and already get this joke. Haha -- nm - Bacon Jun 4, 19:00 1
    - It takes three points to confirm a pattern. - Beryllium (iPhone) Jun 4, 19:43
