  1. Jeez. I saw another article how they have found ammunition loose around set. Some in unmarked boxes or loose in a fanny pack. Complete disregard for safety. Pathetic that this was going on.

    Dune

    I really loved the books, been considering reading them again. The first one is especially. The story spans thousands of years and starts getting pretty bizarre by the 4th book, but it stays interesting. I always viewed it as a series of works on political philosophy. Roles of religion, military strength, natural resources, powerful corporations, etc.

    Dune

    I personally think Feyd may be eliminated all together. Could be wrong, but I imagine Bautista’s character will fill that role. I don’t necessarily understand it either.
  4. This may be a very ignorant statement, but serious question. Why even have live rounds on site? Period. Sorry, not blaming any actor for this tragic accident. It should be the role of the safety professional to properly educate the people using the prop guns. I’m honestly blown away by the complete breakdown of safety processes in this story.

    Dune

    I went to IMAX over the weekend. I’m very happy with it. I absolutely hate the David Lynch 1984 version. Horrible casting choices, cheesy costumes, and the second half of the film takes too many liberties with Herbert’s novel. I’m sure part 2 will get picked up. For any Dune fans, check out Jodorowsky's Dune, a documentary on a great film that was unfortunately never made.
  6. Great job in the third period. Team has been a lot of fun to watch so far.
  7. I had a lot of fun watching last night. Good to have the whiney, bad attitudes off the team.
  8. I keep myself away from the casinos because I love to gamble, but go once or twice every year. (Used to do a yearly vegas trip for March madness opening weekend with friends but wives/kids have ended that). I play a little of everything. Blackjack or three card poker are my favorites, I’ve had several good runs at both. My rule is always to walk once I’m +$1,000. My biggest wins are actually at Seneca Buffalo Creek. I’ve hit for 5k twice on the “Top Dollar” slots there. I’f I lose at the tables I like to take the last $100 of my bankroll to slots and try to hit something before I leave.
  9. There are so many good movies out of South Korea. The Man from Nowhere Burning I Saw The Devil Sympathy for Mr. Vengeance Oldboy These are just a few, great content from Korea if you don’t mind subtitles.
  10. There are enough younger newer faces I haven’t completely soured on. That in itself will make it less awful.
  11. I actually really like Jalen Rose. I got a kick out of this segment, thanks for posting.
  12. Man I must have had a couple too many yesterday, don’t remember him getting boo’d during the game. I do remember the “boos” during intros, but I wasn’t clear if those were even boo’s. He’s got to ignore BS like this. Shame it gets in his head.
  13. Last year was no fun whatsoever. I don’t think this year can be any worse.
  14. I’m a huge survival/horror genre fan (as well as a fan of Korean film) and Squid Game didn’t disappoint. I haven’t truly binged a show in a couple years and I stayed up late finishing this in two nights. Apparently I’m not alone as it’s taken the world by storm.
  15. I have had seasons since 2008. I believe my first seasons were something like $350… for the season. Today I sit corner of the lower bowl for under $900/season ticket. I’ve always felt fortunate at our ability to get NFL football at a reasonable price. With the price points being floated we still will even with PSLs.
  16. I’ll buy the PSLs, it is what it is. That’s the league.
  17. Sad story. Innocent until proven guilty, but when I first read this and saw the fiancé returned to Florida quietly in her van it’s pretty hard not to assume.
  18. What needed to be said kid? No one wore masks myself included, it was great. Figured they’d tighten up their useless policy.
  19. I figured this was coming after Sunday.
  20. I’m obsessed with the First Law Trilogy. If you like it you’ll also love the new Age of Madness Trilogy. Last book expected out later this year.
  21. https://www.google.com/amp/s/buffalonews.com/sports/sabres/ex-sabres-goalie-robin-lehner-alleges-team-medical-staff-mishandled-his-injury-others/article_bf8228c0-fad8-11eb-b3b8-73a4980290db.amp.html Lehner is still bashing the Sabres…
  22. This happened to me for this past weekend’s practice. I never received the text and then went back in Saturday morning and tried it again. At that point I got an immediate text.
  23. I’m going to try to avoid this as much as possible. Anchoring unreasonable demands and threatening a viable substitute is negotiating basics. I don’t believe they will move the team, but it will be frustrating theater to watch.
  24. I’m with you on these. I do like Nirvana, but always preferred Alice in Chains when it came to Seattle grunge.
  25. I have third degree burns from this hot take. Three of my favorite bands. To answer the question I grew up loving to collect tapes and then eventually DVDs. I have very fond memories of going to Suncoast or Media Play with some extra money. Needless to say those haven’t aged well…
