  1. Word. It's been a beating. I strongly encouraged her to knock some of that shit out before summer band started, and of course summer band has now started, and zero essay activity has occurred.
  2. Race week! Our long international nightmare is over! And at my favorite track of all time, no less.
  3. Saw it over the weekend with the family and really liked it for many of the same reasons mentioned above-- Superman more human and relatable than any version since 1978. And more "fun" and less gods of war, even with high stakes. Sure it had some camp, for me not too much, though I can see how others might not like it. I think this could be a great building block for a DCU, I'm eager to see what they do next. Oh and the Marvelous Mrs. Maisel can get it. I really enjoyed her portrayal of Lois, definitely the best since Margot Kidder.
  4. Yes, these movie trailers are a totally new thing. No theater has ever shown Previews of Coming Attractions, until now!
  5. Hot damn I love me some 675. 84, clouds, and cool breezes at my house right now. At noon, on 7/20. Should probably cross-post this on the kickass things in Austin thread.
  6. You should order lobster. It is so choice. If you have the means, I highly recommend picking some up.
  7. That's when I noticed Karl Urban's genius. I'd watched LOTR a dozen times at least and never really noticed him. It wasn't until after the 3rd Star Trek movie, and then I watched LOTR again, and I was all, HOLY CRAP, Eomer is BONES! And then seeing him show up as Skurge in Thor, was really amusing,

  9. Anyone who watched that game and didn't come away with the impression that Texas completely dominated, physically whipped, and totally outclassed the ags on an athlete-by-athlete basis at pretty much every single position on the field, and only kept the ags sort of close by making several critical, boneheaded, self-inflicted mistakes, is kidding himself about what actually happened on the field that day. But it's the ags, and lying to themselves, and everyone else, is their very nature.
  10. Right, but you did it while you were still at Pancho's, you didn't bring that unexploded ordnance back to home base.
  11. Run the naked bootleg and in the rare chance that it doesn't work... run it again!
  12. Yes in some cases they "re-skinned" actual F1 race cars from actual races and digitally overwrote the image with their fake team's livery. Also, at many tracks they also ran their fake team's real cars during breaks in the action between practice sessions or qualifying, to get scenes with their cars and drivers on the actual tracks in real time. And then a couple of times, they actually pulled up their fake team's real cars to the back of the grid at the start of an actual F1 race, to get some establishing shots and some footage of their cars taking off at the same time as the other real, actual F1 cars. In those cases their fake cars peeled off at some point during the first lap, so as not to interfere with the actual racecars running the real race. If you noticed, the Apex team was almost always starting in the final two places on the grid. That's because they wanted them to be filmed on the grid in real life without interfering, but it also worked for the plot of the movie because, in fact, their cars were supposed to be quite crappy until their upgrades arrived late in the season, and they would have been qualifying poorly, anyway. Anyway, completely agree they did some creative and innovative things with both sound and cameras, and they should be nominated for a lot of awards.
  13. This is where the ags are vikings!
  14. Perhaps they smelled gasoline all over him at some routine stop, and finally put two and two together!
  15. Yup. Pretty much. But it's a good thing that they're over-confident. Gonna make the tears even more delicious.
  16. Yeah various sources keep saying it's the first time Lake Buch has been "full" since 2005 which isn't correct. This is the first time it hit 1020 but that's because 1018 was considered full in 2019. Anyway, glad to see someone bother to report it correctly. Well done, KXAN.
  17. I think I saw the first one but I have zero recollection of it. Huh. That said, I'll see anything with Karl Urban in it, so I'm in. (and by first one I mean first rebooted one. I definitely saw the original in 1995 with Christopher Lambert and Bridgette Wilson. How could I forget... )
  18. I think Bohls was also including the $20.5M from the House settlement as well. Which would be silly because anyone that wants to can pay that, and many schools will.
  19. Maybe we'll get a scene of them all drinking margaritas at the Chelsea Street Pub in what's left of the Starcourt Mall!
  20. We're absolutely going to find out whether or not the courts agree with you.
  21. Oh sure, the statute is rescinded. But now come the court cases. They're already happening. There will be more.
  22. Yeah it's up to the NFL to protect its draft process, if they deem it necessary. It's certainly not the job of college football to do so.
