i cannot wait until we as a people can just agree to ignore Bill Maher. conservatives hate him, liberals hate him, we should just put him in a little soundproof box where he can use all the racial slurs he wants because no one can hear him, at which point he will die because he requires attention much like a regular human being requires air

Did he do something particularly egregious tonight? Because I've actually been doing a good job of ignoring him lately.

Thank you for rehabilitating Predators, thread. Rewatched it last night and it was better than I remember.

Though, I think it would've worked better as a movie without dialogue. Feels like every other exchange was some variation of, "What if, like, we're the real Predators, man."

But then we would've missed out on all of the great Walton Goggins bits.

Predators was an awesome experience in the theater, everyone cheered and clapped during the best kills. Biggest clap was the end of the grass fight.

Best laugh was when Topher Grace got stabbed by Royce, and some guy yelled out "gently caress you Forman!"

Gooood poo poo.

"Yeah....five o'clock....bitch...raping...time.?"

"You shouldn't talk to him." *Walton Goggins just smiles as he looks off at nothing in the distance*

Nothing will beat, "DIE, SPACE human being!" though, as he jumps on a Predator's back to shank it.

My question about people who own pet pigs is, what do they do when they get like 300 lbs?

This was one of the sadder parts about the toy pig craze; scammers making a quick buck selling regular pigs as toy breeds and families quickly realizing that they could not handle the enormous animal they wound up with.

Giant pigs can make good pets too, though. They're basically big fat dogs.

Baton Rouge is amazing for this kind of poo poo. Hell, I think we might still have a statue at the LSU Rural Life Museum called "The Good Darkie." This isn't even getting into the fact that Governor's Mansions and State Legislature are considered to be good prison gigs compared to literally picking cotton in 100 degree weather with 100 percent humidity.

I think alligators are cool because they are THE conservationist success story. It's hard to believe a couple of decades ago they faced extinction because they're back and everywhere now in the likes of Florida and Louisiana.

Ah, I haven't been caught up on mainline TV Kamen Rider for a while. I just watched through Amazons like a week ago. That one was pretty tight, though in the early 2000's Agito-Faiz era melodramatic kind of way.

And yeah, the first episode of the 11 minute shorts is up on Youtube. It's basically pure fanservice where they have Obari animate hypothetical fights between Gundam characters using whatever model kits they're selling that month.

Has Defunctland been posted here yet? It seems like this thread's poo poo. It cuts to the chase of many of these types of series and just focuses on documenting failed amusement park rides (mostly DIsney). Here's the one on Disney's "didn't want to make it Alien related because that would be too scary but it's still totally Alien related" ride

the show is a shitzillion times better than the books. I avoided the show for a long time because the books are gently caress-awful but the show is legitimately not bad, and excises most of the worst aspects of GRRM's writing.

Actually, the show is bad too. Especially now that they're in the later seasons.

Pacing is all hosed up because they spent the last several years dicking around accomplishing little-to-nothing story-wise until all of sudden poo poo has to happen because they've only got two seasons left.

Stray thoughts on Valley of Gwangi:

- I really shoulda anticipated this more, but if there's one thing that's making me squirm more than James Franciscus's scumbag ex-boyfriend character is the amount of horsies getting tripped. God dammit, stop tripping the horsies!

- I wish I could have said this about Franciscus's character, but I'm humbled by the recognition that in those pre-Revenant days the only way to show realistic footage of a man being gored by a bull was to literally pay some poor, brave/stupid bastard to actually get gored by a bull.

Hey, how else are you going to establish that the dinosaur is a menacing threat in a cowboy movie than having them knock around horses?
