Civil War is worth watching if I never saw it in the theatres, right? - Strongbad Sep 16, 12:20 12
- You really need to watch Guardians and Ant Man, but they aren't necessary to understanding Civil War, which is an excellent movie that in no way - TWuG Sep 16, 12:27 9
  - It's a comic book movie, there's nothing to understand -- nm - CQ Sep 16, 12:30 1

  - Why Guardians? I can remember nothing that links. What am I forgetting? - Spawn Sep 16, 12:29 6
    - Oh, no links to Guardians, but he still needs to watch it because it is fun and it will link to Infinity War. -- nm - TWuG Sep 16, 12:31

  - Blacklist going with a spinoff was the kiss of death for it for me. -- nm - Beaker Sep 16, 12:25
- Per usual: Record them all. Watch stuff we were watching last year that got renewed, maybe start a couple new ones that look really interesting - oblique Sep 16, 12:04
- Dropped Blindspot. Blacklist, Arrow, Flash and Agents of Shield are on the chopping block. Picking up Westworld and maybe Channel Zero -- nm - decline Sep 16, 12:00
- Luke Cage, Westworld, The Good Place. -- nm - Spawn Sep 16, 11:57 1

  - Dropping Shield? Crazy talk! -- nm - IrishStephen Sep 16, 12:16 3
    - too many shows! I feel I can drop SHIELD alone but to start on the CW I would probably cut bait on all 4 DC shows -- nm - Beaker Sep 16, 12:17 2
      - And...? - Reagen Sep 16, 12:20 1

Local news: 16 year old arrested with $178k in drugs, $3,600 in cash and multiple weapons in a fortified home -- (link) - Beaker Sep 16, 11:50 4
- Clockers, the wire, would suggest that he was just watching, security for a stash house, not the mastermind -- nm - zeitgeist Sep 16, 13:08
- What an idiot, he could probably be making 5 times that by youtubing without the guns and drugs. -- nm - Max Sep 16, 11:51
- Not very fortified if they got him. -- nm - Spawn Sep 16, 11:50 1

      - There is a bit of a kerfuffle about the tix. My wife is out of town that weekend. My son has a Grease rehearsal. I think I'm going to take my - oblique Sep 16, 11:50 5
        
        I'm a little concerned about my tickets. Ticketmaster appears to be going to fairly extreme lengths to enforce their 6 ticket limit and are canceling - pmb Sep 16, 11:54 4
        
        so you cheated, and are upset that you got busted? -- nm - groiny Sep 16, 11:56 3
        
        I don't think I cheated. The deal as I understood it was that each cardholder was entitled to 4 tickets (that was the pre-sale). I'm just concerned - pmb Sep 16, 11:59 2
        
        gotcha, most of the time I thought they limited by household.... - groiny Sep 16, 12:02

- Reddit? -- nm - Qale Sep 16, 11:44
- You could try to convert the JPEG to text first, then translate that -- (link) - Guigue Sep 16, 11:43 7
  - ooh, trying now. -- nm - Andie Sep 16, 11:45 6
    - nope - the picture in the middle of the article messes it up. Saving the link though. -- nm - Andie Sep 16, 11:46 5
      - Can you sent it to me? I can try some voodoo - Guigue Sep 16, 11:49 4
        
        done! the link is above under kilbo - Andie Sep 16, 11:51 3
