  1. Iirc in the book the vigilante claims comes from him setting up traps for criminal by using himself or his car as bait, then attacking the crooks that take the bait. Been too long since I've seen the first film to remember how they handle it.
  2. Personally, when playing games, having fun is my priority first time through. Difficulty challenges are best left for subsequent runs. Marilith Demon Yxunomei is a tough fight.
  3. So the Taxpayer has no interest in the long term survival of their food supply? So no jobs will be continued by the study? Not the scientists, treadmillmakers, zoologist caring for the animals in the experiment...?
  4. The video you linked indicates the treadmill in the video cost about $50 and was paid for out of the scientists pocket. This article indicates about $1,000 of the grant they received went towards a second treadmill. The study was a part of a study looking at how shrimp, a widely consumed marine food, adjusted to environmental changes
  5. If the internet is to be believed,, S1: 39, 31, 37, 41, 35, 43, 41, 48 S2: 52, 40, 35, 37, 45, 32, 38, 44 S1: 315 min S2: 323 mi
  6. 8 episodes both seasons.
  7. Director said it was Cthullu. The idea was that Tian (for LovecrafTian) was a business that fronted for the cults that tried to raise Cthullu in the short story. They failed before (as hinted in the film with the abandoned station) and would try again per the cover-up and stated intentions to continue their activities in the newspaper articles at the end.
  8. I liked Underwater for what it was. The final monster was straight up Cthullu though. For my part, I watched Altman and Feifer's adaption of E. C. Segar's POPEYE comic strip with Robin Williams, Shelly Duvall, Paul Smith, Ray Walston, etc. Its the 40th anniversary of the films premiere, in December 1980. Its long been a favorite film. Possibly one of the best odd-ball films ever made. It still amazes me that the studio so hated working with Altman that they played up it being a failure (despite making 3 times its budget in the initial box office run).
  9. Fixed that for you, mathematically speaking.
  10. Whedon was part of the investigation related to Ray Fisher's allegations about the activities of Whedon (and Johns and Berg) related to the filming of Justice League after Zach Snyder left. WB recently said that they completed their investigation and took remedial action. In a movie that no one is sure is coincidental, Whedon stepped down off of the show he created for HBO Max (a division of WB) called THE NEVERS, citing exhaustion. This was the only investigation I was aware of, although Whedon revealed obliquely some bad behavior after his wife split from him and made accusations against him, IIRC, so I suppose its possible there's more than one investigation going on into his activities.
  11. Old thread
  12. John le Carré
  13. Charlie Pride
  14. RIP. One of those actors who seemed to pop up in all sorts of movies, a lot of times in small roles, but occasionally larger ones.
  15. Old thread
  16. Artist Richard Corben. Possibly best known in pop culture for DEN which was adapted into one of the segments for the HEAVY METAL movie.
  17. "Just between you and me, I'm really excited about the Ring Dings and the Pepsi"
  18. Oscar Issac cast as Solid Snake for the Metal Gear Solid adaption: https://www.hollywoodreporter.com/heat-vision/oscar-isaac-to-star-in-sonys-metal-gear-solid
  19. Filming on the third season has been held up due to the pandemic. I think they were (or are or will be) resuming filming this month.
