Movies you've seen recently
Luc Besson's films have one of the most identifiable photography, that I ever seen. I can watch a movie without knowing that he was attached to it and it rings that bell. Aziz! Light!

The NFL 2013 Thread
Priefer's response was heavy on 'family', I wonder if he really does suffer from "heteronormativity." Got a good playoff buzz around the whole county down here ... except it looks frickin' cold as hell in Ohio for Sunday. Playoffs ... can't believe it!

What you having for dinner tonight?
Bruce, have you ever tried a cheese called Mizithra ... I had a spaghetti dish once with browned butter and mizithra, I thought it was just fantastic texture.

Except I just remembered 20th Century Fox owns distribution of the films? Anyway, they would be fools not to release it. I will keep an eye on May the 4th this coming year, just in case, for reasons.

There exists the fondest, faintest new hope that Disney will release a theatrical blu-ray. A herd of nerfs might also fly out of my butt, but, it could happen. This past holiday week, like a champion nerd, I watched extended editions of all four LOTR movies. Still working on the thirteen separate commentary tracks across all four films. Maybe I should break both my legs and become an invalid. Wait I don't have insurance nevermind.

The NFL 2013 Thread
Winning out the last four games feels decent. Beating Denver at Mile High felt like the Super Bowl anyway, so, not an awful Chargers 2013. New coach gets to keep his job, which is cool, I like his style. We'll see what happens against Cincy on Sunday.

New Year Resolutions
Pfft, it's going to be 2014. Shouldn't you be going at least 1440p? By weird coincidence, there is an article in this month's cpu magazine called 'New Year's Resolutions' about Ultra HD and 4K resolutions and content. No word yet when single 4K monitors will be affordable, but for TVs: "the percentage of Ultra HDTVs shipped won't exceed 10% until 2020, and the majority of TVs shipped won't be Ultra HDTVs until after 2025." In other words, movies and games will be 1080p for ten more years ... which validates my choice in monitor, video card, and TV ... which are all a mere 1080. But hey, if you can afford 1440, which is native to 27" panels, and the beastly video card to support it, then you're a rich ass and I hate you. Yearly resolutions, on the other hand, are for people who like to make lists and cross them off because they can't remember anything, much less how to make or break a habit. Don't quit smoking, that's dumb, smoke slowly instead.

Michael Schumacher in critical condition after hitting his head skiing. He was wearing a helmet but the impact was severe. Please don't die, Schumi.

AMD R9 290X
Cool, a quiet 290. I think everyone knew it was coming, except the guy who wrote that original article, with green ink in his typewriter. "I just can't recommend this card ... it's super powerful, unbelievably cheap ... but it's too loud, just too loud ... I ... it's just ... my Nvidia overlords tell me what to write ... reference blowers ... too loud ... no such thing as partner custom cooling ... don't buy Radeon."

D&D settings and versions
I hope the new fifth edition revives paper and digital games, instead of limping along with an unloved 4E and a nonexistent video game franchise. I just want to kill draconians in 1080 ... why is that so impossible.

Hold the phone. A movie about falling in love ... with your personal computer? Who falls in love with you, too? With the voice of Scarlett Johansson? A computer operating system with the voice of Scarlett Johansson that laughs at your jokes and falls in love with you?! Oh man, okay. Plus Olivia Wilde, Amy Adams, and Rooney Mara? I'm down for some hot silicon personification. metacritic says they told this story well, with a score of 91. The name of the movie ... "her"

What you did today
No bonus, either. Et tu, brute ... I am damn done with this stoner, wannabe-hippie hipster bugger-all d-bag sweet FA knob outfit. So anyway I'm anxiously awaiting the specifics of this new Guard Dog venture that was teased with a nod to the 80s ... please be G.I. Joe related. I can't stop watching this year's movie, Retaliation. The baddest ass ninja assassin movie evar!

Things that now sound evil
Wouldn't that make them LESS evil sounding? And in any case I don't think racist sounds any more innocuous. Hmm, anti-quango. Cliche, in other words. I can't think of a brilliantly original word or phrase, but for sure 'happy birthday' is getting more sinister.
