ESPN's College Football Power Rankings - #25 Go Terps! -- (link) - MDH Sep 26, 09:37
SHIELD speculation (possible spoils) - GregW Sep 26, 09:35 7
- (spec spoils) - Dr.Vermin Sep 26, 09:37
- see below -- nm - Spawn Sep 26, 09:37 4
  - Yeah, I see you went there. That makes it almost certain. -- nm - GregW Sep 26, 09:37 3
    - There is speculation that (spoil) - Spawn Sep 26, 09:40 2
      - What I'd love to see (spoils) - TWuG Sep 26, 09:44 1
        
        (spoils) - GregW Sep 26, 09:47
- don't you dare start another thread about that show! -- nm - colin Sep 26, 09:36
Having trouble finding a good copy, but here's the trailer to Disney's Frozen. -- (link) - Mop (200 lbs) Sep 26, 09:29 [youtube] 4
- Here we go. It's online at the Disney blog now. -- (link) - Mop (200 lbs) Sep 26, 09:38
- fandubbed? -- nm - colin Sep 26, 09:30 2
  - The captions for the title cards, I think. I don't know about the dialogue. The only other version I have is Japanese. -- nm - Mop (200 lbs) Sep 26, 09:32 1
    - Here's the Japanese version, if you prefer. -- (link) - Mop (200 lbs) Sep 26, 09:33 [youtube]
Finally saw some premiers: Sleepy Hollow - decent, I'll give it a shot. SHIELD was pretty bad. If Whedon turns it around, ok, otherwise done. -- nm - MDH Sep 26, 09:24 18
- YOU GIGANTIC ASSHOLE! -- nm - All of ST Sep 26, 09:25 17
  - The Pilot was a generic store brand version of Heroes, that could have been on SyFy. -- nm - MDH Sep 26, 09:29 12
    - Even if this were not pointless hyperbole, it would still elevate Heroes, a terrible show, in undeserved fashion. - David Sep 26, 09:33 11
      - I'll take "STer most likely to blow Joss Whedon for $1600, please Alex." - Shaun Sep 26, 09:41 2
        
        "Above average pilot". What a fanboy. -- nm - David Sep 26, 09:42 1
        
        Are you...denying your fanboyism here? Not sure if joking or serious... -- nm - Shaun Sep 26, 09:44
      - Hence why I said I'll gie it a few to see if Whedon can turn it around. :-) -- nm - MDH Sep 26, 09:38
      - Exactly. Throw Dollhouse in there, as well. -- nm - Spawn Sep 26, 09:37 1
        
        Well, Dollhouse never got better.* - David Sep 26, 09:38
      - IMO there is no hyperbole in my statement re: the pilot. It was generic as hell. I kept it on despite 3 friends saying shut it off. -- nm - MDH Sep 26, 09:35 4
        
        You and your friends aren't allowed to eat MY pasta either. -- nm - Dr.Vermin Sep 26, 09:38
        
        Uh huh. - David Sep 26, 09:36 2
        
        If this had any other but SHIELD people would be saying the same thing. -- nm - MDH Sep 26, 09:38 1
        
        A statement that can be neither proven nor disproven. - David Sep 26, 09:39
  - Hey! Don't lump me in, I haven't watched it yet. - Beryllium Sep 26, 09:27 3
    - YOU GIGANTIC ASSHOLE! -- nm - colin Sep 26, 09:27 2
      - ... I suppose I should have seen that coming. -- nm - Beryllium Sep 26, 09:27 1
        
        IT'S HUGE, HOW COULD YOU NOT?? -- nm - colin Sep 26, 09:29
I know you've discussed SHIELD already, but I wasn't here and don't care. I watched it.. it was terrible. - colin Sep 26, 09:20 44
- As long as they keep the hot babes, I can overlook the other stuff. -- nm - GregW Sep 26, 09:31 2
  - the babe factor in Arrow, is ten times higher than this show. nm -- nm - groiny Sep 26, 09:42
  - Amy made the comment that she thought she would not like them but was very surprised. -- nm - Spawn Sep 26, 09:33
- I liked it. I really liked the sense of humor about itself. Spoils - pmb Sep 26, 09:27 12
  - "You're right! He *is* a little bitch!" killed me. - Dr.Vermin Sep 26, 09:30 1
    - Yeah, I loved that one IM. Maybe it does that for moments, but it's having fun with the genre. He has the ability to straddle that line like few do. -- nm - pmb Sep 26, 09:34
  - so... spoils.. - colin Sep 26, 09:29 7
    - Spoils - pmb Sep 26, 09:31 4
      - thaaaank you. i heard that, but it seemed weird. i wondered if i had missed something else though. - colin Sep 26, 09:33
      - (spec spoils) - Dr.Vermin Sep 26, 09:33 2
        
        big spoil - Spawn Sep 26, 09:36 1
        
        Grazi! -- nm - Dr.Vermin Sep 26, 09:38
    - Jeezy Creezy, did you even WATCH the show??? No wonder you didn't like it!!! ;) -- nm - Dr.Vermin Sep 26, 09:30 1
      - Pretty much. -- nm - Spawn Sep 26, 09:31
  - My favorite joke (spoils) - TWuG Sep 26, 09:29 1
    - And the thing is (spoils) - Spawn Sep 26, 09:30
- I liked it, but did notice the interior sets looked pretty cheap. - Dr.Vermin Sep 26, 09:25 1
  - Budget cuts. -- nm - Ned Ryerson, Accountant of SHIELD Sep 26, 09:25
- seriously cool means massive budgets and longer turnaround times -- nm - zork Sep 26, 09:22 7
  - so why not do it right? we all want a superhero show... -- nm - colin Sep 26, 09:23 6
    - it would cost more than the networks are willing to pay -- nm - zork Sep 26, 09:26 5
      - It would cost more than it would make. So that's understandable. -- nm - Beryllium Sep 26, 09:27 4
        
        Sure, but I swear, I've seen that "crashing to pavement" effect in free VFX bundles I've used. -- nm - colin Sep 26, 09:28 3
        
        Heroes did it much better, but I think SHIELD has more potential for growth. nm -- nm - groiny Sep 26, 09:29 2
        
        Without having seen it, SHIELD has potential not to fuck up the season finale. So there's that. :) -- nm - Beryllium Sep 26, 09:30
        
        can't get worse! -- nm - colin Sep 26, 09:30
- I just thought it was boring and slow. - groiny Sep 26, 09:22 1
  - good point.. i think if it had been paced better, i wouldn't have had time to focus on the production value. -- nm - colin Sep 26, 09:24
- you seem to be in the minority in your opinion -- nm - decline Sep 26, 09:21 15
  - oh i'm sure, just like with The Avengers. - colin Sep 26, 09:22 14
    - ... -- nm - David Sep 26, 09:34
    - Pretty obvious if you FAILED to like The Avengers you would FAIL to like this. -- nm - Spawn Sep 26, 09:24 12
      - TV and movies are in a different realm. i have huge issues with Whedon's movies because he has a poor handle on the medium.. he normally does good TV -- nm - colin Sep 26, 09:25 11
        
        a poor handle on the medium? Have you seen Serenity? -- nm - mud Sep 26, 09:30 7
        
        have you seen how every piece of action is dead center in the frame like he doesn't know there's more space to use? -- nm - colin Sep 26, 09:34 5
        
        Disagreed entirely. -- nm - Spawn Sep 26, 09:38
        
        The best movie of 2005. - David Sep 26, 09:37
        
        no, quite the contrary. I thought he used the whole canvas sufficiently -- nm - mud Sep 26, 09:37 2
        
        there was stuff in it, but there's a lot more to framing a shot than just getting everything in. position in frame, perspective, etc create meaning. - colin Sep 26, 09:39 1
        
        Yes, everyone always talks about Whedon's lack of character depth... - David Sep 26, 09:41
        
        I like colin, and his opinion on video is always lumped into "he is a critic" for me. - Spawn Sep 26, 09:32
        
        Even Amy like SHIELD. Would have bet money against that. -- nm - Spawn Sep 26, 09:26 2
        
        i should have gotten really high first... -- nm - colin Sep 26, 09:27 1
        
        In 40 minutes, he set up an incredible amount of cast and backstory. Now lets see what he does with it. -- nm - Spawn Sep 26, 09:42
That was sweet to see Helton homer in his last game at Coors -- nm - prayformojo Sep 26, 09:18
TV: Survivor 9.41M/2.3 (Series Low), CSI 8.96M/2.1 (nooooo), Nashville 6.82M/2.1, Revolution 6.81M/1.8 (Series Low), Back in the Game 7.88M/2.2 -- (link) - MDH Sep 26, 09:12
Do you use Barilla pasta? Do you support gay rights? Barilla's CEO doesn't -- (link) - TWuG Sep 26, 09:11 5
- except he says absolutely nothing about gay rights. - znufrii Sep 26, 09:29 1
  - No less vile, no less relevant. -- nm - TWuG Sep 26, 09:46
- not like he sets gov't policy. he was talking about advertising. i'm sure there's plenty of companies with this stance, the just don't say it. -- nm - colin Sep 26, 09:21 2
  - That makes it all better. -- nm - TWuG Sep 26, 09:28 1
    - it makes it irrelevant. -- nm - colin Sep 26, 09:41

Krusty, I thought that same thing last year with Pujols, but this time - groiny Sep 26, 09:01 9
- I think teams will look at deals like his and realize it would be foolish to give him that kind of a deal. - Krusty Sep 26, 09:24 1
  - every time I have thought that throughout the years, I am proven wrong. - groiny Sep 26, 09:26
- Any team paying him for more than 7yrs is dumb as dirt. - Will Hunting Sep 26, 09:03 4
  - I agree, but someone out there will be dumb. - groiny Sep 26, 09:04 3
