Yeah, I just picked up EU4 as part of a Humble Bundle. As with most Humble Bundles, I bought it for the one game, and at some point I might try one of the other 12.

Well, in America it means a silly or stupid person; a simpleton.

Well, they were trying to mug him, in a plausibly deniable way. You "ask" someone for money while carrying a weapon (that might not be a weapon). If a cop comes by, hey man, we were just asking him a question, you know. We don't have a concealed weapon, either. Just a screwdriver.

Okay, I had to go to YouTube and look up the ending to Blood Debts.
Still doesn't beat the final fight scene in Undefeatable for "best movie
ending ever", but it is pretty awesome.

He wasn't a super-rangy chameleon, but he was a very good minimalist. His performance in Once Upon a Time in America is a perfect example of understated acting, and he wrings a lot out of fairly limited screen time in the very crowded Great Escape.

Yes, Goetz was quite the celebrity for a brief time in the early 80's. What he did was very similar to Paul Kersey - riding the subway until someone tries to mug him, then shooting them. Before he turned himself in, the tabloids named him "The Death Wish Vigilante".

I like how "lead-related brain damage" could mean lead poisoning (which is what I believe you meant), but it could also be a euphemism for Paul Kersey poppin' a cap in some fool's face.

This should be a sequel to the King of Comedy. Let's see what Rupert Pupkin has been up to the last 30 years.

Maybe they are particularly burly five year-olds.

Duh. They fell off.

It's the biggest issue for me. Baseball, basketball, most college sports are largely on cable. If you follow an obscure college program, chances are the games are all on "WatchESPN", which is internet-only, but can only be accessed by people with cable packages.

Only if they do business with Comcast. I think this is aimed at "cord cutters" who eschew cable TV altogether, in favor of Netflix, Amazon, etc. This gives you access to one more option.

As silly as this sounds, the reason DC Comics is pursuing this isn't necessarily to stop Rihanna from trademarking "Robyn". It is to demonstrate that they are zealously defending their trademarks, just in case someone comes along who tries to commit a real infringement.

When she was little, I used to carry my daughter on my shoulders and have her scream, "Who run Bartertown? MASTER BLASTER RUN BARTERTOWN!"

I will always remember May 14th as the day Mad Max: Fury Road was released. And, less importantly, as my 20th wedding anniversary.

I always thought Midnight Run was Midnight Run for jacking off.

I believe that even the proof-of-purchase ones had affixed rockets. Everyone I knew had one, and no one had one that fired. The original firing ones that still exist probably came from marketing materials, employees bringing home samples, etc.

The rocket was permanently affixed in almost every one; I think the rocket-firing ones were discontinued before he was ever sold. My mother actually worked for the toy company that made these when I was a kid - holy crap was that a great job for your mom to have. Even my Boba Fett had an attached rocket.

The best possible ending for Boba Fett would have been if a giant pair of pliers had grabbed hold of his jet pack & pulled him apart trying to remove the rocket thingy.

That action figure was the Greatest Toy Ever if you are a boy born between 1968-1974.
