    [Movies] Talk about the last movie you saw 2: Electric Threadaloo

    Pretty sure that's just because Irrfan Khan, their first choice, dropped out not long before shooting from what I hear, with Chiwetel Ejiofor not actually being Indian leading to diluting the character's background.

    Gas Bandit's Political Thread V: The Vampire Likes Bats

    The publisher apparently agrees, they're updating the wording of the book (see the facebook post screenshot at the bottom of the article).

    Gas Bandit's Political Thread V: The Vampire Likes Bats

    I'm pretty sure talking about the Atlantic slave trade bringing over people from Africa counts as mentioning how they were slaves. Yes, they said "workers", but what sort of workers would the slave trade be bringing over other than slaves? Maybe I'm overly generous to the intentions of people I...

    Gas Bandit's Political Thread V: The Vampire Likes Bats

    That's not what they're doing though. The ones they're closing are responsible for less than 5% of drivers license transactions even when combined. The places that more than a handful of people actually go to for drivers licenses are still open.

    Video Game News and Miscellany

    Wow, with Arkham Knight being the main reason I had to update my computer this year, between this news and the Xbone announcing backwards compatibility, I'm strongly considering upgrading my console instead.

    Rant VIII: The Reckoning

    To be fair to Charlie, Gas did post a meme including that word, it was just quickly taken down.

    Get the sand out of your vag (Seinfeld says colleges too PC)

    I would assume because it affects people he knows. Also, just because the first specific example that came to mind (since it's from his daughter) comes from a kid who was 14 doesn't mean he hasn't experienced that from college aged kids as well. "Tumblr group age" doesn't end with high...

    Gas Bandit's Political Thread V: The Vampire Likes Bats

    Well, except for the one where the defender survived. The article simply describes that "it was because she ran away", but if you read the details, she was able to hold off the attackers until nearly everyone could get away, after which she left. If we're measuring the Red Team's success by...

    Video Game News and Miscellany

    While it doesn't really matter since paid mods are no longer a thing, for the record, only the new crafting menus for SkyUI were going to go behind the paywall. The current version that all the other mods were built on was staying free and any changes made to the core infrastructure like MCM...

    [Movies] MCU: Phase 3 And Beyond

    I would assume they're just going with his part in CA:The Winter Soldier as background, this movie is packed enough as it is.

    [Movies] The Avengers 2

    It doesn't cause people to reject equality, it causes them to reject your arguments and viewpoint about the specifics of what it is and how to achieve it. Which, for any person who thinks that they're correct, is something no one wants to do. Any good idea someone may have gets filtered out...

    Where to stay for New York day trip?

    Well, I'm sure there are affordable hotels in the city itself, I assume that there are comparable ones that are appreciably cheaper further out. But most importantly...fuck New York City driving. :p Secaucus is looking pretty good though, the 320 bus leaves from the Plaza at Harmon Meadow...

    ...Whelp. :oops: I apologize for my part in messing that up.

    Where to stay for New York day trip?

    I'd say upwards to a couple hundred if that what it takes to get a decent place.

    Maybe in the next one she will, but regardless, it wasn't done in this one.

    Where to stay for New York day trip?

    My girlfriend and I will be stopping by New York City for a day this summer in order to see Finding Neverland on Broadway, and I'm looking for advice on where to stay the night before, somewhere outside of NYC itself. Ideally something near public transportation into the city so we don't need to...

    I think it's more that if you're trying to include any romance in a movie when the large majority of your characters are men, you don't have many romance options on the female side of things. Which tends to make it look like that trope.

    Avengers: Age of Ultron (spoiler thread!)

    Yeah, she says as much the first time they meet Ultron in the church. I think it was silence or gasps followed by some laughter at the Avenger's responses.

    [Movies] The Avengers 2

    Just got back from seeing it, it was great. I think it might be better than the first one. I liked Spader as Ultron as lot. We'll see if the opinion holds after sometime to think about it and eventual re-watches.
