While I'd never use one movie as a trend, I hope that Shrek's soft-ish opening is a sign that the public is turning it's back on 3D. - Dano May 23, 10:20 2
- or maybe the public is turning it's back on $20 tix -- nm - zeitgeist May 23, 10:44
- Seriously, iPhone, sometimes I mean "its" without the apostrophe. -- nm - Dano May 23, 10:23

- In Russia, hotties of day rate you. -- nm - David May 23, 10:20
So, I saw Robin Hood last night. That was a really loooooooooong movie and not much happened. - Andie May 23, 10:05 6
- IMO, it could be condensed to 30 minutes and serve as an intro to a great into to the film we should have had -- nm - peglegpete May 23, 10:07 1
  - crappy proofreading..it would be a great intro to the film we should have had -- nm - peglegpete May 23, 10:09
- I much preferred Macgruber. nm - Dignan May 23, 10:07 3
  - god, i can't imagine sitting through either again, -- nm - Andie May 23, 10:11
  - Russell Crowe is going to throw a phone at you :) -- nm - Beryllium May 23, 10:07 1
    - Better than a piece of celery. nm - Dignan May 23, 10:08
Watching Sherlock Holmes right now. Pretty good stuff -- nm - CQ May 23, 09:58
You know what's going to be really fun? The first hurricane that goes through the Gulf of Mexico this season. -- nm - Dano May 23, 09:35 1
- so now we'll have three kinds. Twisters, Waterspouts, and Oilswirls. -- nm - Beryllium May 23, 10:05
I'm planning on going to NY for a 12-day trip in early August but I need help (inside) - FabioParme May 23, 09:22 11
- If you're planning on sightseeing, getting a hotel near midtown is best - Buzz May 23, 10:48
- dangerous? There's not really any place that's really dangerous at night. Plus with the subway it really doesn't matter where you stay in NYC. -- nm - CQ May 23, 09:33 9
  - what CQ said. -- nm - loosilu May 23, 10:30
  - the only really dangerous place at night is in a bar with JackDawson -- nm - CQ May 23, 09:36 7
    - Anyway, is August a good month to travel to NY? How is the weather? -- nm - FabioParme May 23, 09:49 6
      - hopefully it'll be nice, but more than likely it'll be hot, sticky hot -- nm - CQ May 23, 09:54 5
        
        I'm used to very hot. I live in Rio! Summer usually gets to 110F-115F here on an almost daily basis -- nm - FabioParme May 23, 10:16 4
        
        how's your humidity? that's what kills me about the mid-atlantic region. -- nm - workmanda May 23, 11:03
        
        unlikely to be that bad. More likely in the 90s. -- nm - loosilu May 23, 10:30 2
        
        How about the rain? Does it rain a lot in NY in August? -- nm - FabioParme May 23, 10:47 1
        
        That's harder to predict. It might. But it's not such a big deal in the city ... just go inside! -- nm - loosilu May 23, 10:56
Saw this on the CBS Sunday Morning special 'By Design' program today. The Icon A5 Aircraft. Very cool! -- (link) - HdnAgnda May 23, 08:48 3
- 135K? - Danedukenuuk May 23, 09:04 2
  - The footage they had of this in action made me want. -- nm - HdnAgnda May 23, 09:59 1
    - one "problem" though is: no side pontoons so you have to be carefull turning on water - Danedukenuuk May 23, 10:16
nothing like a little home made clam chowder. good stuff this -- nm - CQ May 23, 08:38
In pictures: Champs-Elysees turn green -- (link) - Danedukenuuk May 23, 07:45
Trish needs to ask Crash about Grimm Fairy Tales. -- nm - Remlik May 23, 07:44
With the new Kindle e-book pricing, I am finding Kindle books that cost more than their paper-bound kin. That is completely absurd. -- nm - ty97 May 23, 07:32 14
- *seriously.* I mean, *seriously.* I cannot get over that. I get that I pay a premium for convenience, but paper book people should pay a premium for - workmanda May 23, 09:59 2
  - It baffles me to think that something I can re-sell would cost less than something I can not re-sell. - ty97 May 23, 10:22
  - I completely agree. -- nm - Beryllium May 23, 10:06
- Blame Apple. Or possibly Barbes and Noble. They broke Amazon's lock on pricing. - Beryllium (iPhone) May 23, 09:26 9
  - It's the publishers, certainly. If they can get the prices, more power to them. - ty97 May 23, 10:21
  - B&N didn't force it, publishers did. Competition from B&N would have forced prices down. - TWuG May 23, 09:49 7
    - Nope, what I'm talking about is New, paper-bound, sold by amazon VS Kindle. - ty97 May 23, 10:20 3
      - I haven't seen it yet, but I know that the price differential has been nearly nonexistent on some books I've bought - TWuG May 23, 10:25 2
        
        link? - workmanda May 23, 11:05
        
        I find it relatively commonplace for the prices to be similar/identical and that bugs me some. - ty97 May 23, 10:26
    - The initiation of the iTunes Book Store and the Nook book store gave publishers leverage to force Amazon's hand. -- nm - Beryllium May 23, 10:04
    - I think 97 is smart enough to know used from new. -- nm - workmanda May 23, 10:00 1
      - He didn't say "new" so I wasn't sure what he was seeing. - TWuG May 23, 10:21
- i agree, your meta-shopping skills are slacking - Danedukenuuk May 23, 07:39
I have two new nephews! both are healthy and neither has a name yet. -- nm - loosilu May 23, 06:03 10
- Congrats, Aunt loosi! -- nm - Dano May 23, 09:22
- any red hair on them?? -- nm - peglegpete May 23, 08:55 1
  - brown hair for now, but it could change. Probably won't be red (all our redheads were red at birth) -- nm - loosilu May 23, 09:01
- that's wonderful -- nm - peglegpete May 23, 07:51
- everybody loves nephew(s) -- (link) - Danedukenuuk May 23, 06:54 [youtube]

    - Denice - nubby May 23, 07:31 1
      - I don't think he'll appreciate that when he's 18. :) -- nm - loosilu May 23, 07:32
    - btw, I had a couple Maibocks the other night. - CovingtonCat May 23, 06:14
Amoxy, my computer comes up clean, but I didn't send you an email. - Todd Manning May 23, 05:17 3
- Yeah, I got it too, from gmail. -- nm - nubby May 23, 07:00 2
  - I hate people. Do I want to know what it was? -- nm - Todd Manning May 23, 10:58
  - Yeah it was gmail -- nm - amoxy May 23, 08:04
interesting. I just tried to use my laptop as a display for the xbox (didn't work), but it did reset my computer's clock to 5am, October 21st, 2027. -- nm - mafic May 23, 05:07 1
- Australian timezones are further ahead than I thought. -- nm - ty97 May 23, 05:14
Not sure of the legitimacy of the site, but this woot-like site has The Dark Knight Limited Edition 2-Disc DVD Set With Collectible Batman Mask Case - ty97 May 23, 04:43 1

~I might like you better if we slept together~ -- nm - CrankYanker May 23, 01:22
Whoa, I think LOHAN just arrived at the hotel with a taller blonde.....caused a big stir among the staff at the entrance. -- nm - Crankyanker May 22, 23:10
So if I'm understanding this correctly, the Dems lost Obama's old home district in Hawaii because they split the vote? -- nm - Mop May 22, 22:43 7
- you know the Dems, they gave half to incompetence and the other half to stupidity -- nm - Danedukenuuk May 23, 07:52
- You mean his home district in Kenya! -- nm - Dano May 23, 02:23
- one candidate was put up by the state machine, the other was favored by the national party - pixman May 22, 22:45 2
  - And Hawaii has a really weird law for special elections. -- nm - Tim May 22, 23:07 1
    - Jeff Probst holds one big tribal council -- nm - pixman May 23, 02:24
- This was expected and it's a lock to go back to the Democrats in November. -- nm - Tim May 22, 22:44
- I prefer to blame CBS's resurrection of Hawaii Five-O -- nm - Beryllium May 22, 22:43
So, I see you're dabling in water colors -- nm - zeitgeist May 22, 21:59
That 20 inning game where he hung an 0-7 pretty much ruined Frenchy's season. - Tim May 22, 21:57 1
- hang in there, jeff! i'm pulling for you -- nm - evil canadian david May 22, 21:58

Yea! The board rolled. I have a message for Loosi. - Trish May 22, 21:53 3
- doh! And I forgot to tell you the station--it's going to be on Bravo. -- nm - Trish May 22, 23:45 1
  - cool! Pegleg had mentioned it but I haven't seen promos. As for judging, I guess it's like any other competition - dance, music, fashion. -- nm - loosilu May 23, 06:10
- especially when you consider the most highly prized artists of today were failures of the day...rembrandt van gough - zdroid May 22, 22:40
Sean, it was surprisingly good, especially the top layer of (egg/batter?) and the sauce on it -- nm - ty97 May 22, 21:47
Rhona Mitr! Ooh, baby. -- nm - David May 22, 21:44
Just when I bitched about Bear, in this episode he's making a fire with two sticks. -- nm - Redmond, Gemma fan! May 22, 21:44

    - now = No -- nm - oblique May 22, 21:46 1
      - I guess it's not right now, but it is streaming soon. - JaxSean May 22, 21:50
- I miss StreamingSoon.com. The FeedFliks one isn't as user-friendly (to me) at all. -- nm - JaxSean May 22, 21:42
i'd watch Stir Crazy and Delicatessen before Rachel Getting Married - pixman May 22, 21:40 3
- What about "Still Crazy"? :) -- nm - Beryllium May 22, 22:46
- I thought Rachel Getting Married was outstanding and Anne Hathaway deserved her nominations. But, it's one of those movies I won't ever rewatch - Trish May 22, 21:58 1
  - I'm not quite done with it yet, but it's one of those movies where I wonder why the no name supporting cast doesn't get more notice. - TFox May 22, 22:12
Oh, btw I was thinking Gemma Arterton would be an awesome casting for Wonder Woman. - Redmond, Gemma fan! May 22, 21:37 2
