So I got to see an early screening and I really liked the movie. Not going to give anything away except one thing that's not related to the plot at all but rather how it was edited that I loved.
it has the super cheesy/awesome screen wipes from the original films
-
Supposedly it'll start December 22nd, but that's just the word on the street.
-
Yeah the ending of Ex Machina was really rough.
I also agree about BKV on longer stories, I think he's probably the best writer out there at single issues and actually writes issues unlike some people who very clearly write for trades (which is fine, but different).
-
Maybe it has to do with one of my monitors being vertical, or perhaps it's to do with my monitors being pretty offset as a result
-
That's what I thought since it's always changed when I accidentally scrolled to the side, but it never switches back when I scroll the mouse back to the other side. I always get stuck on one of my monitors.
-
Is there a way to change what monitor shows up when using the Steam link to view your desktop? A couple times when I've been using it it's changed the monitor, but it's always been on accident and I don't know how.

I find that patent super interesting!
-
I'm not seeing any Pixar movies on Netflix, Hulu, or Amazon (they're on Amazon, but not free for streaming)
-
For me the top three are Up, Toy Story 2,and The Incredibles. I've never really liked Wall-E all that much (except for Ben Burtt's sound design) despite really wanting to.
Also I enjoyed Inside Out after expecting to dislike it.
-
Just weighing in, Partly Cloudy is my favorite short, probably. I think the score for Up is the best in any Pixar movie.
-
There's also Paper Girls which I'll probably check out once there's a trade out.
-
New series just started over at http://panelsyndicate.com by the same team as The Private Eye
-
Agree completely about Black Mass, really didn't care for it. Also it was really obvious even without actually knowing going in that a lot of stuff had been cut from the film which made it super awkward (not that I think it would have been better an hour longer).
-
So in 2016 we have an Xmen movie, Doctor Strange, Civil War, Deadpool, Gambit, and Sinister Six?
-
Not of any importance if you're going for an older cpu, but I the haswell-e and k series skylake chips don't even come with stock coolers anymore (I guess because the idea is anyone buying a multiplier unlocked cpu is going to be using a better cooler).
-
Just so you know the majority of z170 motherboards only support DDR4 memory so if you get that RAM you need to make sure you get one of the very few DDR3 compatible boards.
-
Is it possible to play without the dog at all?
-
There's a blutooth option on the main menu, before you pick which PC your going to stream from. I think that's where you'd go? I've not used it myself.
Thanks! I was trying from the point after I had selected my PC so I wasn't seeing it.
-
So it's probably really obvious and I'm an idiot, but how do you actually pair a Bluetooth device to the Steam Link? I don't see an option anywhere in the options/menu.
My local Fry's had the K400 for $18 so I picked one up and it serves its purpose great.

I was sorta hoping the Boston geography would be more accurate; probably shouldn't have expected it, but it's really jarring for me seeing Harvard Square and MIT represent all of Cambridge, with the city ending a block away from the Harvard train station. There are a few recognizable landmarks scattered around, but certain areas like Concord feel so distant from their real life counterpart that it pulls me out a bit. I went to high school in Concord and have lived around Cambridge for the past 6ish years so I'm probably just a little too familiar with it.
That said, obviously they were gonna change the geography to make this game playable, and I think they did a great job of capturing the feel of the area. Even if the layout is unrecognizable, the environments and lightning of the woods around Concord feel just right and the architecture feels true to reality (though of course mixed in with Fallouts 50s retro future thing).
Anyway, played maybe 8 hours yesterday and I'm enjoying it so far. The main story writing isn't grabbing me, but the Settlers for fo3/new vegas was easily my favorite mod for those games, so the town building aspect is really doing it for me (even though the tutorialization for it is awful).
Thanks for this post, I probably won't get around to playing the game for a little while but I've been really curious about how accurate Boston is depicted given the scale.
-
I didn't think it was bad after the main arc as much as it was a logical ending point (as in it was going to end there but kept going because the book was popular) and I didn't feel the need to stick with it because I felt satisfied. If you're still enjoying the stories and characters then you'll probably enjoy the next half of the series too.

Read Too Cool to be Forgotten again last night and yeah, it's really good and still gets me. Really looking forward to Alex Robinson's new book that comes out pretty soon. It'll be interesting to see the scope as it's going for a similar sort of thing as Box Office Poison, but it's half the length, though Too Cool did a lot in only 120 pages.
-
The first thing that comes to mind is The Quiet Earth (probably because it has the word 'quiet' in the title). It's quiet and easy to watch, I find it relaxing.

I got my Steam Link on Saturday and so far I'm really digging it. I still need to find a small wireless keyboard, but so far I've been playing a lot of old point and click adventure games (which is basically what I bought it for) and it's great. It's been cold and rainy where I live the past couple days and curling up on the sofa next to the fire place and playing with just a trackball has been pretty sweet.

Honestly I didn't even remember that, I haven't seen them since they were in theatres.
