There were some gloriously gratuitous kills shots. It's hard to make gun shots more gory than sword kills in shows like the Game of Thrones, but John Wick pulls it off with some of the brain splatters.

John McClain deserves an honorable mention. Very plucky. He could definitely take out a 5 seed in the first round.

It says a lot about him though.

Another judge might care. You hit a cop. You're going to jail.

Pushing and hitting cops is okay if you're a liberal to these people. It must be. They spend so much time excusing these thugs.

Yours isn't as an insightful poster we seek answers to from rhetorical questions. Or anything else requiring a brain for that matter.

It has the most fabulous violence of any movie ever made. Rambo XII used to hold the title because they turn a pacifist into a murderer at the end, but there are just too many gratuitous shots in John Wick for there to be any doubt who holds the championship belt.

Yes to Sanderson, but haven't read the others. Thanks. Completed series are exactly what I was looking for.

Any new recs? I need to read something while I wait . . . .

I read somewhere that named him, GRRM and Rothfuss the Unholy Trinity. Lol. It's just my luck that I am reading all 3!!!

I thought you said the Fourth Book was being released this summer? I think you might have gotten me stuck in another GRRM situation: the neverending story. For shame, Int. For shame.

The little league team I coach is on a winning streak. What of it? You want to buy season tickets to see them play? I will give you a discount.

@temery Can you do us all a favor and finally delete the football forum now that the university admitted we don't have a football program? Or maybe just hide it from non-members like the Cesspool? I always thought it highlighted the school's shortcomings by being open to the public. Much...

Bad form. I would have gone to meet a BYer. UConn football games do provide opportunities to accomplish something other than watching UConn football sometimes. For example, I always wanted to see Touchdown Jesus, so I flew out for our game in South Bend. Also, my dad is a West Point grad, so...

I bought tickets to one UConn football game when I was a student. I didn't use them. One of the best decisions I made in college. UConn football is and always will be third rate. I am ok with that.

Other schools don't have our basketball program. They've got nothing to lose by playing in a third rate football conference with fourth rate basketball. We do. Or we did. Football has already taken its toll on a once premier basketball program. Let's just hope we put it down in time to save...

Hasta la vista, Football.

I was so excited when I received a text telling me about the news that I got sidelong glances from passerbys at the dog park. I was absolutely giddy.

Best news in a long time. Awesome. Just awesome. We never should have sacrificed basketball on the alter of crappy football.

Too kind. It was like the 2005-2006 basketball season. Sitting in the Verizon Center, surrounded by elated George Mason fans, is all I remember. Who cares that we had a great regular season? Rudy Gay, Josh Boone, Hilton Armstrong . . . they got pushed around by midgets. Played like ass and...

It's his modus operandi. He did it in the Star Wars threads at the same exact time he was defending the hot messes Disney crapped out from the people who didn't just extol the turds. "I loved it. I absolutely loved it. It was the bestest when Luke magicked a holographic image to fend off...

HBO stole the 8 best years of my life.

I was surprised by all the surprises about the Dothraki and Unsullied HBO kept from us for 8 seasons. Who knew they multiplied like gremlins when tossed in water? Brilliant, just brilliant writing. From a few straggly survivors of the fight with the dead, to two brand new standing armies in...

Second viewing? I would rather remarry my ex-wife for another ten-year prison term than rewatch that mess. It was awful. God awful. I literally was yelling at the television "just end."

What a jackass.

Hahahahahahaha!!!!! The worst final season and final episode in the history of television. Lol at the idiots who tried to defend last week's hot garbage. Brand the Broken. Lol.

This is why we call him #Malpractice.

And the risks materialized. The character development sucked. The unwashed masses = the wisdom of crowds.

I know they told us. Everyone realizes HBO offered reasons for the transformation. Thier absence was not the problem. The problem was how ham-handed those reasons were. How forced, contrived, rushed and therefore unbelievable. We all knew why Annakin Skywalker became Darth Vader. That...

Do yourself a favor: don't watch it. It sucks.

I expect her to stay in character unless given reason to believe otherwise. Being alone is insufficient. She was alone for the first few seasons and won her following. Being sads and mads and upset with people standing in the way of her rule is insufficient. She chose to marry one of...

Why was executing the Tarly's worse than Ned executing the Night Watch man fleeing a whitewalker or Jon executing a prebuscent boy? You say so, the show tried to tell us it was so in order to provide the patina of character development. But why? It just isn't. They chose death over swearing...

Bullcrap. It's just the opposite. You are pretending that there is no ruthlessness in good people. That executing someone holding you captive or conspiring to dethrone you is sufficient reason to expect someone to turn into Sauron if she gets too sad. Except, you are only pretending for...

Come on. She stayed in Mereen an extra season just to make sure slaves were not re-enslaved after she left. She set aside her ambitions to do the right thing for others. Why are people just pretending seven seasons of do-gooderism away to defend trash story writing?

No, you're finding retroactive excuses that do not outweigh the totality of the character development and storylines. The show writers had two queens. One refused to set aside personal goals for mankind and the other sacrificed her ambitions to save others. They made it clear who the good...
