AHS Fans. Celebrity gossip is that Sara Paulson & Jessica Lange are a couple - Epiphany Aug 25, 13:37 6
- Lange denied it earlier this week -- nm - MDH Aug 25, 13:46
- Cherry Jones must be who I was thinking of... - the wrong element, bad guy Aug 25, 13:39 1
  - Yes that is her. They then kissed later that night so Paulson was okay with it. -- nm - Epiphany Aug 25, 13:41
- so, Sam Sheppard is availible, or is he your's already? :) -- nm - peglegpete Aug 25, 13:38 2
  - Never been a fan. They broke up in 2009. (I didn't know this). Call me if Sam Elliott comes back on the market -- nm - Epiphany Aug 25, 13:40 1
    - will do :) -- nm - peglegpete Aug 25, 13:49
I hope no STers were at the Ravens/Lions game. - the wrong element, bad guy Aug 25, 13:10 4
- Nope, but at the Ravens/Jags game a cricket flew down, bounced off my daughter's shoulder then landed on mine. - Inigo Aug 25, 13:25 2
  - Given the results of those two games, you should go to all the games that count. - the wrong element, bad guy Aug 25, 13:43
  - Crickets hitchhike. -- nm - the liioulu with canoe Aug 25, 13:36
- Of all the games I could have gone to, why'd it have to be THAT one? -- nm - Bane si Aug 25, 13:23
Vroom -- nm - Will Hunting Aug 25, 12:49
That Gangnam Style video is like Ricky Gervais became a Korean pop star behind our backs. - Reagen Aug 25, 12:43 12
- I am very sad that PSY's publisher had "Gundam Style" removed from YouTube -- nm - Beryllium Aug 25, 13:22 9
  - What? After 35 million views they decided it needed to come down?! -- nm - Epiphany Aug 25, 13:24 8
    - I don't think Gundam Style had as many views as the main one -- nm - Beryllium Aug 25, 13:33
    - 53 million last night when I watched it again. -- nm - Spawn Aug 25, 13:26 6
      - Awesome! I love him madly! -- nm - Epiphany Aug 25, 13:27 5
        
        I had watched part of it without sound when it was posted here, then last night someone I follow talked about it and reminded me. -- nm - Spawn Aug 25, 13:28 4
        
        Hmm. Still there. Almost 57 mil now. -- (link) - Spawn Aug 25, 13:43 [youtube] 3
        
        Gangnam. Gundam. -- nm - Reagen Aug 25, 14:02 2
        
        So, what was the other one? -- nm - Spawn Aug 25, 14:03 1
        
        I'll assume some dancing robot thing. -- nm - Reagen Aug 25, 14:08
- [deleted] 1
  - I'm a big fan of his. He ripped Deadspin the other day on Deadspin. - Krusty Aug 25, 13:05

oof...Rob Liefield having a massive twitter meltdown.... - Remlik Aug 25, 12:38 18
- I am sure he looks forward to working, again. -- nm - Spawn Aug 25, 14:06
- Rob's an ass, but I will agree that the DC books seem to lack a unified editorial vision. - TWuG Aug 25, 13:32 11
  - It has been a smashing success for sales. - Spawn Aug 25, 13:33 10
    - I know I picked up a LOT of new titles when the relaunch hit. But once December rolls around I'll probably dump half of them. - TWuG Aug 25, 13:41
    - except for Batman, Detective, JLA, Aquaman, Swamp Thing, Animal Man and Wonder Woman...those books are excellent.... - Remlik Aug 25, 13:39 8
      - What is Gail Simone working on now? - the wrong element, bad guy Aug 25, 13:45 5
        
        Currently she's writing Batgirl. I think she left Firestorm with issue 6. -- nm - TWuG Aug 25, 13:49
        
        I blame whoever revamped Poison Ivy. -- nm - Spawn Aug 25, 13:48 3
        
        Did that happen after the revamp? - the wrong element, bad guy Aug 25, 13:50 2
        
        Yes. Simone hasn't handles the BoP since the reboot. She'd do a thousand times better than the current writer. -- nm - TWuG Aug 25, 13:52
        
        No, with the reboot they un-sexified her. -- nm - Spawn Aug 25, 13:51
      - Swamp Thing is enjoyable, but I had to drop Animal Man because the art was putrid. -- nm - TWuG Aug 25, 13:43
      - I would not put JLA on their level. Especially with where it is going. -- nm - Spawn Aug 25, 13:41
- I almost wish I was on Twitter to read this. from what I am hearing from others in the business, Rob is right and DC is on acid -- nm - peglegpete Aug 25, 12:57 3
  - it's a mix of both.... - Remlik Aug 25, 13:08
  - All I saw was him saying Batman sold the Batman book more than the creative team. - the wrong element, bad guy Aug 25, 13:04 1
    - and then he called snyder a pretentious shit and posted a private conversation online -- nm - Remlik Aug 25, 13:08
- "Hey Liefield! Draw my feet!" -- nm - Reagen Aug 25, 12:44

    - This. :-( -- nm - Krusty Aug 25, 13:03
    - *nods* -- nm - Stephen Aug 25, 12:38
    - To me it's sort of upsetting about how far away we'd be from going back. -- nm - Reagen Aug 25, 12:19 4
      - [deleted] 3
        
        It would not be shocking to me that the next time someone walks on the moon, there will be no one left alive who had. - Reagen Aug 25, 12:48 2
        
        [deleted] 1

- I love that they felt the need to clarify that. -- nm - Reagen Aug 25, 12:11 5
  - well NBC did fuck it up -- (link) - Remlik Aug 25, 13:01 3
    - If we have a choice, I'd like to make that trade. -- nm - Max Aug 25, 14:38
    - Somewhere there's an intern going "What? What did I do?" -- nm - Reagen Aug 25, 13:09
    - ! -- nm - mud Aug 25, 13:02

- Luckily, Spawn has a week to get Beaker the info. - the wrong element, bad guy Aug 25, 12:07 4
  - It was a combination of odd number and getting votes for the rule changes. Sending out emails (individually) to those that did not vote yet. - Spawn Aug 25, 13:19 1
    - I voted, but on ST. - the wrong element, bad guy Aug 25, 13:37
  - [deleted] 1
    - I figured as much. - the wrong element, bad guy Aug 25, 12:26
2016 Obama's America was the #4 movie on Friday. That's kinda shocking. - Inigo Aug 25, 11:24 19
- Ugh a person from HS that now lives in TX just facebooked a pic of their ticket stub with the caption: "The Truth." -- nm - MDH Aug 25, 11:56 2
  - Thats only surprising if they live in Austin. - the wrong element, bad guy Aug 25, 12:29 1
    - Why does Little Jimmy hate America? -- nm - Qale Aug 25, 12:44
- what I expected. the haters are gonna hate, and love doing it with others. -- nm - Spawn Aug 25, 11:48
- It feeds the chunk of the population that wants the next president to be "not Obama." -- nm - JaxSean Aug 25, 11:45
- The only surprise for me is its box office placement, which is primarily due to the failures of this week's new releases. -- nm - David Aug 25, 11:35 11
  - You're not surprised it kept relatively the same PSA after expanding from 169 to 1091 theatres? - Inigo Aug 25, 11:38 10
    - It didn't. -- nm - David Aug 25, 11:50 5
      - A 7,300 PSA to a $6,500 (guesstimate) PSA isn't relatively the same? -- nm - Inigo Aug 25, 11:54 4
        
        Let's be precise It's $7365 to a best case scenario of $6261. - David Aug 25, 11:59 3
        
        My favorite part of Atlas Shrugged: Part 1 is when Dagny had a vampire baby at the end. -- nm - Qale Aug 25, 12:05
        
        Okay, you already ceded it would be an exception to the rule. Makes sense why you wouldn't be surprised. - Inigo Aug 25, 12:04 1
        
        It received *massive* free advertising this week. -- nm - David Aug 25, 12:05
    - With the exception of a handful of major cities, the movie is entirely playing in pure GOP territory. - MDH Aug 25, 11:41 3
      - Small releases always play where they're popular. - Inigo Aug 25, 11:44 2
        
        It's an election year, and they hate Obama, think Farenheit 9/11 style. Tea Party Uncle/Aunt are all over this/ - MDH Aug 25, 11:46 1
        
        No freeloaders! They want to see it, they can pay their share! -- nm - Reagen Aug 25, 11:49

- seriously? so the shooter didn't hit anybody? -- nm - ceregon Aug 25, 10:03 5
  - he hit the target he was aiming for. -- nm - Remlik Aug 25, 10:07 4
    - so it's really a murder, with lots of collateral damage from cops, and not really a mass shooting? -- nm - ceregon Aug 25, 10:14 3
      - Yup. One cop fired nine shots and another seven. Seems like they got very trigger happy. - Krusty Aug 25, 10:22 2
        
        Seriously, they shouldnt be allowed to carry guns -- nm - Truman Aug 25, 10:33 1
        
        it was a study linked here back when that looked all a couple years worth of cop shots, they hit only 25% of the time - zeitgeist Aug 25, 12:28
- oh jeebus, these guys need to have gibbs train them. - tRuMaN Aug 25, 09:52 1
