Carla Unger as Carnage Funko (I don't know who this is) -- (link) - Beaker Apr 9, 09:07 2
- Superior Carnage. - Spawn Apr 9, 09:12
- I mean, it's a cool looking pop, but when you don't even know who it is. They did say it was going to be very niche. -- nm - Shaun Apr 9, 09:11
TIL: John Francis Daley not only write and directed Vacation, but he asked Bones to kill him off so he could go do that. - Will Hunting Apr 9, 08:59
Bridesmaids would have made my top 3. -- nm - Loyola Apr 9, 08:59 1
- I'd choose it over 40 year old virgin -- nm - Krusty Apr 9, 09:01
Unpopular opinion: I hated Step Brothers so much. -- nm - Krusty Apr 9, 08:55 34
- I didn't, because I won't watch it. If most of his SNL sketches were annoying AF - I certainly can't do a full movie of Will Ferrell. nm -- nm - Turd Ferguson Apr 9, 09:17 1
  - I have always said Will Ferrel's SNL is garbage but his movies are good. Apatow probably gets a lot of credit there. -- nm - con_carne Apr 9, 09:19
- you just can't handle boats and hoes -- nm - Beaker Apr 9, 09:09 1
  - ~ We sail around the world and go port to port, every time I cum, I produce a quart ~ -- nm - Shaun Apr 9, 09:12
- Thanks, we're going to be quoting this movie all day now -- nm - con_carne Apr 9, 09:06 2
  - *nods* YUP -- nm - JaxSean Apr 9, 09:11
  - Sssh sssh ssshh shut your mouth. -- nm* - Shaun Apr 9, 09:07
- Cause your favorite dinosaur is stegosaurus? -- nm - Cuzzin Todd Apr 9, 09:03
- BUT IT'S THE FUCKIN' CATALINA WINE MIXER! -- nm - Beaker Apr 9, 09:03 1
  - POW POW!! -- nm - Shaun Apr 9, 09:04
- Much like Anchorman (which I hated the first time I saw it), on subsequent viewings I appreciated the humor more. - JaxSean Apr 9, 09:01 [youtube] 2
  - So many throw away bits in this film - con_carne Apr 9, 09:05
  - this -- nm - Beaker Apr 9, 09:03
- You guys all live on Planet Bullshit. -- nm - Shaun Apr 9, 08:59 6
  - I'm guessing this a joke from the movie. Sorry Dragon, it's not good. -- nm - Krusty Apr 9, 09:00 5
    - In the Galaxy of This Sucks Camel Dicks -- nm - con_carne Apr 9, 09:10
    - HA! -- (link) - Shaun Apr 9, 09:09 [youtube]
    - And SyrDragon wants to have a word with you about trying to steal his name. ;-) -- nm - Krusty Apr 9, 09:00 2
      - Fine. You have to call me...Nighthawk. -- nm - Shaun Apr 9, 09:01 1
        
        No problem, Nighthawk. ;-) -- nm - Krusty Apr 9, 09:03
- Did we just become best friends?!! - Flavorize—father of Kraken Apr 9, 08:59 1
  - Heh. :-) - Krusty Apr 9, 08:59
- Me too. - Loyola Apr 9, 08:58
- *nods* -- nm - tRuMaN Apr 9, 08:57
- Yep, I made it 20 minutes in and hated it. SuperBad is another one I just didn’t like much. -- nm - Will Hunting Apr 9, 08:56 4
  - Love Step Brothers but Super Bad super sucked. -- nm - Cuzzin Todd Apr 9, 09:04
  - No fancy sauce for you. -- nm - Shaun Apr 9, 08:57 1
    - That scene has the most economical sight gag that gets me every time - con_carne Apr 9, 09:15
  - I tried to watch it twice and it's just too moronic in its comedy. -- nm - Krusty Apr 9, 08:57
- You are in time out. -- nm - Volnelk Apr 9, 08:56
- With you. Will Ferrell is hit and miss for me. This was a miss. -- nm - VMan Apr 9, 08:55 2
  - I've like him in two roles: Buddy the Elf and President Business -- nm - TWuG Apr 9, 08:58 1
    - Anchorman and Talladega Nights (SBC is great) I like as well. There my be others. Hated Blades of Glory, Semi-Pro, etc. -- nm - VMan Apr 9, 09:16
- it's by far the best comedy on that list -- nm - ty97 si Apr 9, 08:55
I am at my office. It's weird. -- nm - Andie Apr 9, 08:54
Anyone who didn't pick Step Brothers has to call me Dragon from now on. -- nm - Shaun Apr 9, 08:53 5
- Yeah, that's the easiest one on there for me. -- nm - JaxSean Apr 9, 09:03 1
  - Tropic Thunder is the best of the bunch for me. I could watch it once a week and still laugh hard. -- nm - Krusty Apr 9, 09:07
- See above. Hated the movie. -- nm - Krusty Apr 9, 08:55
- Get up, Shaun. I know you’re faking. -- nm - Volnelk Apr 9, 08:55 1
  - I will roundhouse your ass. -- nm - Shaun Apr 9, 08:56
Mad Magazine legend Mort Drucker has passed. -- nm - Remlik Apr 9, 08:51 1
- Blecch. -- nm - Reagen Apr 9, 08:57
ST Morning Poll: You can only keep 3...Modern Comedy Classics Version - Flavorize—father of Kraken Apr 9, 08:45 [Attachment] 43
- Virgin, Tropic Thunder, 21 Jump Street. 3 of my all-time favorite comedies -- nm - Beaker Apr 9, 09:15
- Virgin, Marshall, Thunder. Throw Pineapple in the dumpster and set it on fire. -- nm - B-A-ron Apr 9, 09:11
- Finally a toughish one... Wedding Crashers, Hangover and Tropic Thunder. Step Brothers would be 4th. -- nm - Cuzzin Todd Apr 9, 09:06
- 4, 6, 7. -- nm - mud Apr 9, 08:56
- Tropic Thunder. nm - Turd Ferguson Apr 9, 08:53
- Step Brothers (easy), 40-year Old Virgin, and ... ugh. Hangover I guess. -- nm - JaxSean Apr 9, 08:53
- Wedding Crashers, 40-Year Old Virgin, Tropic Thunder -- nm - VMan Apr 9, 08:52
- Tropic Thunder, Forgetting Sarah Marshall, The Hangover. - Will Hunting Apr 9, 08:51
- Don't need any of them -- nm - ty97 Apr 9, 08:51 13
  - Yes. Maybe we can save 3 more of something good instead. (NM) - Marlowe Apr 9, 09:06 6
    - Comedies tend to be the least rewatchable type of movie for me. I mean, it is like somebody retelling you a joke. You already know the punchline. -- nm - Spawn Apr 9, 09:10 5
      - I'm the opposite. I love rewatching comedy films over most others. Easy to get into, are light watching and make me feel good. - Krusty Apr 9, 09:16 1
        
        word -- nm - Beaker Apr 9, 09:17
      - True. I much prefer rewatching superhero movies like Suicide Squad. -- nm* - MARlow Apr 9, 09:14
      - agreed (except for Coen Bros or Monty Python) -- nm - mud Apr 9, 09:13 1
        
        I don't call those "comedies" as they are actually masterpieces. -- nm - Spawn Apr 9, 09:23
  - Don't need you! - Krusty Apr 9, 08:52 4
    - I'm very picky about comedies I guess, and probably only like certain types. - ty97 Apr 9, 08:53 3
      - ffs man, it's a fun poll. Overthink much? -- nm - Shaun Apr 9, 08:54
      - What comedies do you like? -- nm - Will Hunting Apr 9, 08:54 1
        
        Love Actually -- nm - ty97 si Apr 9, 08:55
  - BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO! -- nm - Shaun Apr 9, 08:52
- Other than Sarah Marshall (so much eye candy), random is fine. They are all about equal. -- nm - Spawn Apr 9, 08:50 5
  - Choose three not all of them! -- nm - Krusty Apr 9, 08:51 4
    - Fine, right column! -- nm - Spawn Apr 9, 08:53 1
      - You chose wrong but at least you made a choice. :-) -- nm - Krusty Apr 9, 08:56
    - You see what I mean people?!?! -- nm - Shaun Apr 9, 08:52 1

- Tropic Thunder, Step Brothers, 21 Jump -- nm - Jovian Apr 9, 08:49 2
  - This is me, too, basically. -- nm - Beryllium Apr 9, 08:50 1
    - I mean, if you replace Step Brothers with a soup kitchen, I'm in. Even Walk Hard ... -- nm - Beryllium Apr 9, 08:52
- Left column. -- nm - Dark Callisto Apr 9, 08:49
- Wedding Crashers, 21 Jump Street, Step Brothers. -- nm* - Shaun Apr 9, 08:48
- What groiny said. -- nm - zunkskunk with the bad take Apr 9, 08:48
- Tropic Thunder is the easy choice. After that I'll keep The Hangover and The 40 Year Old Virgin -- nm - Krusty Apr 9, 08:47 1
  - i would agree with this -- nm - tRuMaN Apr 9, 09:00
- Step Jump Tropic -- nm - con_carne Apr 9, 08:47 1
  - 4th favourite Fatboy Slim album -- nm - Reagen Apr 9, 08:51
- Crashers. Sarah Marshall. Step Brothers. -- nm - Volnelk Apr 9, 08:47
- Diagonal top left to bottom right -- nm* - decline Apr 9, 08:47
- I'll take the top 3 -- nm - groiny Apr 9, 08:46
Cuomo'clock -- nm - ty97 Apr 9, 08:35 9
- new daily high in death count for NY -- nm - ty97 Apr 9, 08:44 2
  - but also lowest number of net new hospitalizations in New York since 3/18. -- nm - decline Apr 9, 08:45 1
    - yep, that's been the trend the past few days, since deaths are delayed say 7-14 days from hospitalization -- nm - ty97 Apr 9, 08:46
- Some doom and gloom "before people get too complacent" -- nm - con_carne Apr 9, 08:38 5
  - He, wisely I think, doesn't want people to hear "we might be at peak" and back off the distancing as a result -- nm - ty97 Apr 9, 08:41 4
    - I wanna be New York tough! -- nm - con_carne Apr 9, 08:44 3
      - If cheesy marketing gets people to comply, then keep cheesy marketing. -- nm - ty97 Apr 9, 08:44 2
        
        The only cheese I see is on my slice -- nm - con_carne Apr 9, 08:49 1
        
        You should get some mozzarella sticks to go with your slice. -- nm* - Krusty Apr 9, 08:58
tru's good idea - listen to audibooks for free cause public libraries are awesome. - tRuMaN Apr 9, 08:25 5
- Or check out ebooks, especially if you have a tablet (although I've read books on my little iPhone 5 and it's fine). -- nm - mara Apr 9, 09:00
- I've never listened to an audiobook. I'd be hesitant to accept an abridgement. -- nm - mud Apr 9, 08:32 3
  - i dont think the dresden files books are abridged. -- nm - tRuMaN Apr 9, 08:57
  - The vast majority of audiobooks these days are unabridged. A Song of Fire and Ice (Game of Thrones) is close to 34 hours long - JD Apr 9, 08:39 1
    - holy shit is it ever unabridged. -- nm - Reagen Apr 9, 08:42
ST opinion: took the dog to the vet, can the corona virus live on her fur? how long? am I being dramatic? more dramatic than usual? - Pippy-Janky Jenkins Apr 9, 08:13 12
- There's no evidence at this point that it can be transferred that way. -- nm - loosilu Apr 9, 08:30 1
  - From what I've read there also isn't evidence that it can't. I think it's an open question. -- nm - pmb Apr 9, 08:49
- I would think/assume/hope that the vet tech is washing and sanitizing their hands a lot. -- nm - JaxSean Apr 9, 08:21
- I don’t think it’s jumped to pets - spamlet Apr 9, 08:21 7
  - Um... -- (link) - oblique Apr 9, 08:27 4
    - Ok Joe Exotic. -- nm - spamlet Apr 9, 08:29
    - *NORMAL* pets -- nm - ty97 Apr 9, 08:28 2
      - Um... -- (link) - oblique Apr 9, 08:30 1
        
        *NORMAL* pets -- nm - ty97 Apr 9, 08:30
  - I think it's about possible surface infection to Pippy (whether that is possible?) not about the pet getting infected. -- nm - ty97 Apr 9, 08:24 1
    - agreed. -- nm - Pippy-Janky Jenkins Apr 9, 08:25
- Shave her - Spawn Apr 9, 08:16
Kareem: "Basically, the kind of nonsense rants you’d expect to find scrawled on a cardboard sign on a freeway off-ramp." -- (link) - mud Apr 9, 08:08 4
- I didn't know about Evangeline Lilly. She goes on the list with Dennis Quaid. -- nm - Mop Apr 9, 08:13 3
  - she walked it back. -- nm - Remlik Apr 9, 08:30 2
    - Sure, so did Vanessa Hudgens, after backlash. But when your first reaction to word of a quarantine is "GOVERNMENT OVERREACH!"... - Mop Apr 9, 08:33 1
      - Yup -- nm - Krusty Apr 9, 08:38
Canada projects 11,000-22,000 COVID-19 deaths -- nm - Beryllium Apr 9, 08:07 6
- yikes -- nm - mud Apr 9, 08:17 2
  - That's like half the population! -- nm - Mop Apr 9, 08:20 1
    - it's ~equivalent to 110,000-220,000 for the US -- nm - mud Apr 9, 08:24
- And I'm not sure if it's a projection or an actual number, but 1m jobs lost (5.3% drop). Alberta could be looking at 25% unemployment. -- nm - Beryllium Apr 9, 08:12 2
  - Oh, yikes, the 1m number is for march -- (link) - Beryllium Apr 9, 08:19 1
    - Somehow, this is Quebec's fault. -- nm - Mop Apr 9, 08:45
1 hour till the new Funko exclusive announcement -- nm - Beaker Apr 9, 08:06 7
- Carnage (Carla Unger) -- (link) - Shaun Apr 9, 09:01
- Teaser. -- (link) - Shaun Apr 9, 08:47
- Funko Outbreak! -- nm - groiny Apr 9, 08:43
- Their countdown seems to imply 2pm our time. -- nm - Shaun Apr 9, 08:43
- Surprise! It's a SlackerTalk series! -- nm - Mop Apr 9, 08:36 1
  - I'm holding out for the venomized lick_theballs -- nm - Beryllium Apr 9, 08:43
- We used to have sports. Now... we have this. -- nm - Spawn Apr 9, 08:17
re: snacks. *finishes breakfast 2 mins ago* Can we have a snack? - Shaun Apr 9, 07:58 2
- Though I'm fairly sure the adult version of this is: Finishes beer, two minutes later, think I'll have another one - JD Apr 9, 08:23 1
  - Two minutes later? Ha! To the IM, yeah that's pro server action right there. -- nm - Shaun Apr 9, 08:41
B2: Raul Julia's last film was Street Fighter -- (link) - JD Apr 9, 07:55 [Backboard] 3
- He was one of the three (besides Connery) that I thought of rather quickly. - B-A-ron Apr 9, 08:18 1
  - Of course, 2 of those died....different cases. -- nm - Will Hunting Apr 9, 08:33
- Crappy movie, but I enjoyed him in it. -- nm - VMan Apr 9, 08:03
OK, fine, I've downloaded Sorcerer's Arena. Let's see how stable it is on my ancient tablet. -- nm - B-A-ron Apr 9, 07:51 1
- My 6-year old is devouring Super Mario Run. I've played a few levels. It's pretty damn good. -- nm - Shaun Apr 9, 07:56
zoom zoom -- nm - oblique Apr 9, 07:49 1
