Cinema and Movie Thread: I like to remember things my own way.
If these are successful, will someone FINALLY make a Twenty Years After movie? Also, I'd like to see a The Vicomte of Bragelonne movie. I mean, we did get The Man in the Iron Mask, which is a subplot in The Vicomte of Bragelonne. Anyway, I'm always down for d'Artagnan movies. My folks read me the entire d'Artagnan trilogy when I was a little kid and they were my favorite books for quite a while (until I discovered Isaac Asimov in my teens).

I, for one, am sick of elves because they're elves. Dwarves are cool, though.

Funny Stuff: Which website did Chewbacca get arrested for creating? Wookieleaks!
People forget that Murica wasn't always as interventionist as it is these days. We have Woodrow Wilson to thank for sending this country on a century long (and counting) crusade to "save democracy" across the globe. Thanks, Woodrow Wilson!

Seems like they're going for a Guardians of the Galaxy vibe. I can only hope that Hugh Grant hams it up even half as much as Jeremy Irons did in the OG D&D movie. I like the casting choices. Chris Pine is a charming and charismatic fellow, I think he can pull off a bard well. Michelle Rodriguez as a barbarian works for me, she's a natural in the tough, badass role. Hugh Grant as the villainous rogue, I can get behind that so long as he properly hams it up. I believe in you, Hugh. Color me cautiously optimistic.

I just went through the Dream On quest. This is my favorite quest in the game, so far, at least. It reminds me of some of the best quests in the Witcher games where they start out as one thing, then they take a dark turn, and at the end you're left with a really difficult decision that's going to leave a nasty taste in your mouth either way. Great stuff!

The Corpo apartment is pretty swank. I just wish I could change the color palette.

CeeDee Lamb is an alien Edit: Dak needs to clean up his throws. He threw 2 interceptions in the first half, 1 of them just happened to get dropped. Edit 2: Did I mention that CeeDee Lamb is an alien? Edit 3: That was uncomfortably close for 3 quarters, then muh Boys blew the game wide open. At 9-3 we're 1 win away from the playoffs. Edit 4: Muh Boys scored 33 points in the 4th quarter. Was this the single greatest 1 quarter beatdown ever? That was so absurd a curb stomping that I actually felt bad for the Colts at the end. That 4th quarter was like watching the Midnight Express against a jobber tag team. A minute into the match the Express already has one of the jobbers beat, but instead of pinning him they drag his lifeless, limp body to his corner and force his partner to tag in just so that they could beat the $#!+ out of him too. Then they would toss him to the outside and distract the ref so that Jim Cornette could get some licks in with the tennis racket.

Kinda sucks that you can only remodel the starter apartment. Hopefully, they add remodeling options for the other apartments eventually.

What are you Playing Now? It's not how you play the game, it's how you place the blame
Valheim is one of two survival games that I didn't hate, the other being Conan Exiles. I should jump back into it at some point. It is grindy, but that's the nature of survival games. You're going to be swinging a pickaxe a lot, that's what you do in that genre.

Predictably, Poland got their asses handed to them. At least they made it out of groups, so that's something, I guess.

Super Egg Salad Eggs, mayo, green onions, bacon, pepper, and paprika. No salt needed, the bacon supplies that in spades.

Do they make monitors with no bezel? I'm not talking a really really thin bezel, I know those monitors exist, I'm talking ZERO bezel. Phones exist with no bezel and while scaling that up to 27" or whatever does present some technical challenges, it should be completely doable, albeit expensive. Anyway, the reason I ask is were I ever to do a multi-monitor setup, I'd want no bezels so that I could potentially run it as a single screen without that ugly and distracting line where the monitors meet.

I wanted to like Crystal Skull because I liked all the previous Indiana Jones movies and because Cate Blanchett is in it, and I generally really enjoy her work, particularly the rare occasions when she gets to ham it up. Cate couldn't save that mess, though.

Crystal Skull's best redeeming quality was Cate Blanchett's Russian accent.

I have a baffling love for Temple of Doom. If I look at the movies objectively and remove my own feelings from the equation, both Raiders and Last Crusade are better movies. However, if I was on a 2 1/2 hour flight and was given the choice to watch any Indiana Jones movie, I would pick Temple of Doom without a second thought. I really enjoy that movie. I am forever confused by the hate Kate Capshaw got for the Willie Scott character. People kept telling me that she was annoying and I thoroughly liked Willie. There is no debate to be had about Short Round. Short Round is the best and that is a factual and objective statement. Period. Full stop. I like the monkey brains scene, I liked it then and I still like it now. If that makes me a terrible racist and literally Hitler then so be it. I can get cancelled or whatever. I love the mine cart chase, it's freakin' awesome. I think the Kali Ma, Shakti De scene is the most iconic scene in the series. Yes, more iconic than the Raiders face melt. Sure, Temple of Doom has some really stupid stuff, but nothing even remotely as stupid as Indy surviving a nuclear blast in a refrigerator or Shia Labeouf swinging with monkeys.

Spectrum (they can change their name but I know they're still Time Warner, I'm not fooled) has a list of compatible modems, which includes both modems and modem/router combos. It's not the longest list in the world but it's definitely better than take what we give you and like it. Side note: I'm also replacing all my old cat 5e cables with cat 6a. Cat 6a is overkill, since none of the cables are more than 7', but the difference in price between cat 6 and cat 6a was so small that I just got the better cables. Cat 7 would DEFINITELY have been overkill and that was a significant step up in price.
