I’m mostly fine with this. I don’t watch/read ringer and if I saw a bunch of state farm stuff I’d ignore it. I’ve been with USAA for 2 decades now. I’m not changing.

Then Luke was also built up over three movies. So was Han. It’s a stupid point. It’s called character development.

Again, I don’t think you’re necessarily wrong in your analysis—though, burning enemies who refuse to surrender/submit is categorically different from burning hundreds of thousands of unarmed peasants who’ve already surrendered, and in earlier seasons Daenerys was presented as somebody who regularly insisted on that…

Magnolia, Minority Report, War of the Worlds, Eyes Wide Shut, and like four out of six Mission: Impossible movies would like a word. 

If there’s ever a company picnic and freelancers are invited, I’ll be sure not to bring it up!

Edge of Tomorrow also has some video-game-y aspects to it, and it’s great.

How to make a good video game movie? Do not base it on any actual video game.

I mean, I’m not disappointed that this isn’t Double Indemnity with Pokemon, but I am a little bummed out that it’s not even half as clever as Zootopia or Rango.

That’s a great vision and I’m very down but has MLS given any hint that that’s the plan?

The problem people are having with MLS is they are not even allowing their business to mature. They’re on a money-grab, expanding with no top-flight talent coming in. Their refusal to partner with USL to develop a legitimate Pro/Rel system further eradicate their credibility in the sport.

Pfft, tell that to the citizens of Brockway, Ogdenville, and North Haverbrook.

If MLS gave a shit about the soccer, they would have instituted pro/rel instead of simply holding out their hands and screaming “GIMMIE GIMMIE GIMMIE” until every city bigger than Peoria has an MLS team.

Can’t wait to bike over to the rail yard and watch a game in an empty stadium as white women in maroon and gold scarves complain about homeless people. Goddammit. 

Preach. However, I’d say Georgia being left out is the same dynamic that occurs in most playoff systems where a strong division or conference can lead to a solid team being left out, or put at a disadvantage (wild card).

I’ve heard they’re working on a fourth version of sambo but I’d rather wait for sambo number 5.

“The Gamecocks were expected to make between $2 million and $2.5 million from hosting the game,” The State’s Eric Garland wrote back in September, “but as the 15th-most profitable football program in the country, they can absorb that loss if necessary.”

Fun fact: Changing it to rhyme with “Heisman” reverted it back to its proper German pronunciation.

Personally I think a full blown revival is rather needless, but I think a limited series event or a one off like what Ricky Gervais has done could be interesting. Something along the lines of a “where are they now” type followup mockumentary. Otherwise, how could they contrive to get the whole gang back together?

Um, I do! You have the introduction of Slughorn, the Pensieve and its retrieved memories, Harry Potter high on Felix Felicis, Aragog’s funeral, the introduction of Horcruxes, and Harry and Dumbledore’s trip to the underground lake. It is fantastic and creepy and funny and horrifying. I’d put it second to Azkaban, for…

And frankly, his breasts are not at all fantastic. BLATANT false advertising.
