      - No pool table unfortunately. -- nm - Loyola May 5, 09:19
One of my coworkers had his 4th kid yesterday (May 4th). 5 weeks premature. - Beryllium May 5, 09:04 4
- Where's the "Like" button, Bery?! -- nm - IrishStephen May 5, 09:39 3
  - I've never been gone on the name Luke. It sounds like something you'd pour down your sink to unblock it. -- nm - Loyola May 5, 09:44 2
    - that is an ... unusual association. -- nm - Andie May 5, 09:46
    - (apologies to any lukes out there) -- nm - Loyola May 5, 09:45

    - right, sexy, but not a total whore. nm -- nm - groiny May 5, 09:01
- If they were going for white trashy look. they nailed it. If they wanted a simmering sexy look? they failed. -- nm - Jovian May 5, 08:54
- I feel they missed the mark badly on her look. nm -- nm - groiny May 5, 08:47 15
  - she was the only one in the group pic that I kind of liked -- nm - Beaker May 5, 09:06 5
    - Not even Deadshot? - Beryllium May 5, 09:06 4
      - they did him better on Arrow -- nm - Beaker May 5, 09:08 3
        
        he supposedly will have the laser eye in this movie as well, just not in that photo... - groiny May 5, 09:10
        
        and the cartoon they just did was better than both Arrow and this movie imo -- nm - Beaker May 5, 09:09 1
        
        (the look) -- nm - Beaker May 5, 09:09
  - Considering our collective opinion of DC's ability to hit any mark, I appreciate that they're going the harder route of ignoring expectations. -- nm - Beryllium May 5, 09:05 2
    - Time Warner...not DC. -- nm - Remlik May 5, 09:12
    - I think the 2 characters they cannot afford to whiff on in this movie, they kind of whiffed on. - groiny May 5, 09:07
  - it shouldnt have been too hard (link) - Jovian May 5, 08:53 [Image] 3
    - that is a good look. I suspect we'll see multiple outfits. Hell she may even be in the classic outfit in a flashback -- nm - Remlik May 5, 09:12 2
      - I do approve of the choker she is wearing that says "PUDDIN" -- nm - groiny May 5, 09:14 1
        
        It's tattooed on her thigh. You can see it in the group shot. Almost like she did it herself. -- nm - volnelk May 5, 09:37
  - you're thinking of her look from 10+ years ago. It's pretty spot on. -- nm - Remlik May 5, 08:51
  - it is like Sucker Punch : DC Universe. nm -- nm - groiny May 5, 08:48
- Not bad. She is pretty smoking, but I find it impossible to get behind this movie. -- nm - Shaun May 5, 08:44 2
  - As of today I would bet big money that this flops. -- nm - MDH May 5, 08:50 1
    - it's to early for me to gauge it honestly. I need to see a trailer. -- nm - Remlik May 5, 08:52

- [deleted] 2
  - no shit -- nm - groiny May 5, 08:27
  - perhaps, but Money is not -- nm - prayformojo May 5, 08:21
- He looked around and saw there's no one else at 147 who is worth a damn. - Will Hunting May 5, 08:15 1
  - Just make Mayweather fight Adrien Broner and the egos may cause everyone to implode. -- nm - MDH May 5, 09:10
- Manny may get suspended for hiding his injury so it might be longer than just his rehab -- nm - Beaker May 5, 08:15 3
  - His defense. "If I backed out, you were out 1/4 to 1/3 of a billion dollars." "Well argued, Mr. Pacquiao. Do you want a masseuse?" -- nm - Will Hunting May 5, 08:16 2
    - he should be set up for life after that making that much $ for such a shitty fight. nm -- nm - groiny May 5, 08:36 1
      - Yeah, but he can probably build a few thousand more villages with another one. - Will Hunting May 5, 08:54

  - [deleted] 7
    - and I was wrong - it is $15 cheaper per night. Oh well. -- nm - Diva May 5, 08:14 2
      - [deleted] 1
        
        One other thing I'll point out regarding Lollapalooza, it will also make getting around certain areas of the city much more difficult. If anyone - pmb May 5, 08:26
    - If anyone is making more last minute decisions it will be harder. -- nm - pmb May 5, 08:04 3
      - worst case scanario, they can hotel outside the city...... - groiny May 5, 08:06 2
        
        People of course can do what they want, but if I was traveling here, that would be a deal breaker. You have limited time in the city, you don't want - pmb May 5, 08:09 1
        
        depends on what you are planning to do. There is a lot of standing around time - groiny May 5, 08:11
