  - (Mop's post is a season 6 spoiler) -- nm - kelly Feb 11, 22:10 14
    - Apparently my spoilers require two spoiler warnings. - Mop Feb 11, 23:54 13
      - It was just an extra precaution. There are multiple people here watching this for the first time. - kelly Feb 12, 05:09
      - The first spoiler didn't cover it? - nic to be determined Feb 12, 00:04 11
        
        Late season is rather vague and some that are watching may not be up to that point. -- nm - Krusty Feb 12, 05:26
        
        As I just noted above, there are a few people here watching this for the first time. They may not like knowing that spoiler ahead of time, as it - kelly Feb 12, 05:12
        
        One more spoiler alert - Beryllium Feb 12, 00:06 8
        
        Amoxy's on S1, Mop specified late season. That covered it. Or are we assuming people on this board are stupid? - nic to be determined Feb 12, 00:41 3
        
        I'm further along so late season doesn't tell me enough. Is it the last season, next to last, the season before that? - Krusty Feb 12, 05:27
        
        Spiiler - Beryllium Feb 12, 00:43 1
        
        Then Remlik's original post should have been a spoiler. Along with any casting news for the reboot and pretty much what's already been talked about in the last few weeks in the subject line. -- nm* - nic to be determined Feb 12, 00:47
        
        . -- nm* - nic to be determined Feb 12, 00:38 3

        He's on Ep 3. -- nm - nic to be determined Feb 12, 00:44

  - yeah...Lane's Mom. -- nm - Remlik Feb 11, 21:49 6
    - The actress who played Lane is now 42. -- nm - Tim Feb 11, 21:50 5

  - Oh, hmm. I want a poster too. - Beryllium Feb 11, 21:38 3
    - well you could have traded spawn your condom for one but - mr plow Feb 11, 21:40 2

Got my ticket for the 11:25 showing of Deadpool. - amoxy Feb 11, 21:03 1

Rough Weekend Thoughts based on ticket sales (from tonight): Deadpool $75M+ (ya'll were right), Zoolander/HTBS: Mid $20Ms - $30M -- nm - MDH Feb 11, 20:58 2
- Long on both. Where do I sit? -- nm - Beryllium Feb 11, 21:02 1
  - IMO: HTBS easy long right now. Zoolander right around break even (these movies have potential gains though), Deadpool I think is a few dollar long - MDH Feb 11, 21:17
