Do you live in a cave? Melissa McCarthy has been in everything lately, and Kristen Wiig is everywhere too. The other two are SNL alums, Kate McKinnon is the best cast member currently on it. http://youtu.be/OXvo6ksBHnI Honestly I don't know how you can have a problem with the cast being women. I can't think of any 4 males that would be a better fit than who they went with, and it adds a new hook.

I'm pretty sure I've seen a few films that were basically just male versions of Sex in the City. Putting 4 friends together and having them deal with comical relationships isn't exactly an untapped template. That being said, it is time to reboot Ghostbusters. It isn't exactly a thriving property.

Actually I think the Ghostbusters cast is fantastic. Every one of those girls is hilarious, and I can see them fitting into the roles perfectly. I have high expectations.

Could Hollywood please wait until i'm dead or with Alzheimer before they start ruining the franchises I grew up with? If you didn't think Indiana Jones was already a bit ruined by Crystal Skull, I don't know what to think. Plus, the last report said they were going with Bradley Cooper. I find this a lot more fitting. Double plus, they've ditched Shia Labeouf. I think the intention with Crystal Skull was to groom a new Indy, but they chose an insane person for the part. I still think River Phoenix is the only true heir to the Indy throne. RIP.

I have my complaints about it, but DA:I is a pretty fantastic game. It was a much better experience than DA2. So I'm glad to see it is doing well, and hopefully they continue to improve the franchise moving forward. Someday I may even finish it.

Been running my new laptop through the paces with Elder Scrolls Online. They are introducing a Justice system soon, so I'm interested to see how quickly the NPC bodies pile up. You get to steal and murder. The game does look fantastic on my new system.

Kingdom of Heaven (Director's Cut) is my favorite movie. I enjoyed the Director's Cut as well, but what ended up in the box office was not nearly as good and bombed badly.

Ridley Scott seems to stumble whenever he gets near history, his Crusades movie was a flop too. I loved Avatar and look forward to more.

Or neither. I was going to say, it really depends on the stock. Is it typically stable?
-
I endorse that completely.
-
Ah you mean, being honest and asking questions, of course.

Why do kids ruin it?

Yeah I was all excited about it, thinking it might be a good source of clips on the Silk Road and the Yuan Dynasty court. But it went off the rails rather quickly.

That explains why I was always rubbish at swim meets, I was too powerful!

We really need a legitimate third party to challenge the current trends. Bull Moose Party Redux! Actually I think even another Ross Perot type might be enough to get some actual reform in the two parties. There just isn't enough pressure on either group to move from the status quo.

Another incident with black men getting shot by police
Hurlshort replied to Drowsy Emperor's topic in Way Off-Topic
I guess it is good to know that misinformation is used to deter cheating. I still think a written test is a lousy way to really assess how fit someone is to deal with a high pressure situation. -
I hate these types of lawsuits.

They actually do a bunch of psych evaluations for cops. But like most tests, passing just means you were prepared for the test, not that you are actually competent. edit: The police departments in my area are constantly training. Something like half of their on duty time is spent in training. Edit 2: Looked it, up, my local PD does 60 mandatory hours a year, and then a bunch of optional training depending on task forces. -
You need to read up on Lincoln if you think Obama is bad about the law. Here is what a lot of the sites you read today would look like if Lincoln were in power: http://www.libertyforlife.com/constitution/politicians/dishonest_abe.htm Here is a less inflammatory version: http://www.politifact.com/truth-o-meter/statements/2014/mar/10/ted-cruz/ted-cruz-says-barack-obama-first-president-who-thi/

I think many of you will enjoy a jaunt through ESO, it doesn't depart from the single player experience much when it comes to exploring and questing. Like every ES game, I eventually lost interest, but for awhile I really dug it. Also, one of the better crafting systems I've seen.

So, exercise is good and stuff. Keep up the healthy living.

I think some of you that work in offices should take all the pictures from those threads and put them up on the walls of your cubicles. Don't let the corporate world repress you!

Ok, so then it wasn't something of little impact then. What is the issue with the GG thread though, other than images of dumb Twitter postings. The GG one is personal preference. It hurts my head to read it. It's really not that reasonable to go to Obsidian Entertainment's forum to look at pictures of pretty woman. So I don't know why anyone here is surprised that it is shut down. WoT by definition is really not a reasonable part of the forums. They could just shut the whole thing down if they feel it is too controversial. Why is this such a big deal for you guys? You have sooooo many other places devoted to pretty women.
-
Huh? I mean, I read most of the topics on WoT, I just click on the ones that are highlighted as unread and move up or down. So yeah, I have to pause and make sure I don't click on that one and the GG one. I have a legitimate reason for this, if I'm at work and students are milling about, and I bring up pictures of scantily clad women, that is going to cause major issues for me. It's also possible for network administrators to see my browsing history. Sure, a gaming forum may already be questionable, but threads about movies or communism hardly raise the same problems as one with women.
