  1. Woot woot! Just saw a lot of live streaming of Star Wars Celebration Day 1 and was treated to see the 2nd teaser!! Yay
  2. The whole Terran Empire 2 part of Enterprise is so fun. I think it's in the last season? It has a reshot scene from First Contact movie where Cochran does something completely different from movie and then fun follows for the next 2 hrs. Imo anyway
  3. Thank yall. I've talked about him and my sister in this thread before and how in another life I'd go into psychology to be able to help reclusive people. They became that way cause they are both so large. They sleep during day and do shopping at night cause they didn't like getting stared at. He was 6'7 and 600+ lbs and everyone knew including him that we would get that call sooner rather then later. The human body just isn't built for that. Still he was the VERY definition of a large teddy bear. Super nice and helpful to us family when we needed him even if he had to sit down in his chair every few mins and just be the boss and tell me how to do whatever it was needed doing.
  4. I was pretty disappointed with the S5 start. Timeline wise boy Tyrions beard is way to bushy. It's the Narrow Sea not the Atlantic. That was just bit over the top.
  5. Finished the season about 45 minutes ago. This show just had me hooked the whole time. I think ep 2 was the best of the 13. Those last 5 mins were just fist pump worthy. I'm so happy I didn't let my dislike of DD growing up and the garbage the Affleck movie was keep me from hitting play on ep 1. I'm curious if diehard DD fans enjoyed this reboot? They had nice nods though very few of it being set in the Marvel universe. Nothing concrete on connecting it to Avengers but they easily could do so if S2 is made and they add some time in story wise.
  6. I've just never been fan of Alternative Universe shows/books/etc so when I realized that's were it was heading I just imeadialty lost interest and I was so mad that I was in theater vs sitting on my couch with a dvd.
  7. DS9 is space porn and worth the slow S1-2. I grew up on TNG so it's my fav. Never got much into Voyager. Enterprise is another slow S1 but S4 is amazing and this show has the best 2 parter episode in a Trek series for me where the Federation is a war machine instead of exploration. Abrams reboot pissed me off to no end and I wasn't happy one single bit when he was announced to direct SW Episode 7.
  8. The 1st Thomas set is amazing. It's the 2nd set that drove me tears and had me setting the huge Omnibus down somewhere around bk 2-3.
  9. I can't even describe how gutted I felt having to tell my 11 year old girl that her favorite Uncle died last night over the phone and hearing her instant cry. Atleast my son at 8 doesn't realize the finality of death that young yet. Felt like Hulk punched me in the gut hearing her though.
  10. RIP James. You were a great Brother in Law the last 20 + yrs.
  11. Please tell me other Marvel fans are bingeing on this show! Hell I never even liked DD in the 80's-00's when I was into collecting comics. I was fearful we were in store for another bomb like Aflecks movie brought to the character so I went in ep 1 holding my breath. Boy am I shocked!! This show rocks! I'm already on episode 6 and it only started streaming today. Please go watch this show now.
  12. So last yr I sold one of my cars and bought myself a huge 49 in Smart tv upgrading from a 32 in and Football and games were better then ever. It also meant that I had the biggest TV in home beating out my dads 47 in. Well today my old man called saying he was at Sam's Club and asking if I was home to help unload his new 60 in Smart tv. Lol my gears are turning on how I can get him to swap it for mine.
  13. No way! Lol. The 1st 3 are short books with big font. A slow reader can blow through them in 2 days and just knowing that the majority of fans say these books get better with each bk should be motivation enough to plow through small books.
  14. No big surprise but Tsarnaev guilty on all 30 charges from Boston! Now we just have to hope next jury will enact death penalty and not life.
  15. I think I fell out of bed the other night after my Ambien was good and kicked in. I have to take it or I stare at my ceiling all night. Anyway my back is good and soar the past 4 days so I must have fallen at some point. No amount of Tylenol and Asprin is helping dull it. I have some muscle relaxers but I hate taking them. I may have to though.
  16. Dresdencrack is awesome! Bks 1-2 are the worst by the majority of fans. That changes halfway through bk 3. Then bk 4 comes out the gates swinging HARD from pg1 and that continues through bk 15. So fun. Also if the idea of reading 15 bks gets to much to bear his Codex Alera 6 bks are the true treat. It's Pokemon mixed with a lost Roman Legion merged together. A fan challenged him to take 2 ideas and write a book out of it. The results are a gem. Butcher won the challenge imo.
  17. I see this a lot. Most either love Blade from pg1(me!) or struggle with it till the last arc and then love it.
  18. Bloodborne is making me want to cry like a little girl.
  19. Dalinar, LIFT, and Wayne. Lift is going to rock when she's older.
  20. Ikr!! He's become kinda Jedi Mastery since Skye's mom went to his room in the 80's. Idk if he was in the comics or if he's a show only character.
  21. I sure do hate juggling 3 games a day but they are all fun. Destiny, FF Type 0, Bloodborne. So fun!
  22. Heretics of Dune is easily my 2nd fav of the 6. I loved it.
  23. Sitting at the show to see Fast 7! Can't wait!!!
