:cool: Just so that you know!

For the upcoming Superman/Batman film, Ben Affleck will be starring alongside Henry Cavill as Batman. You know what...I don't mind it too much, I think he could pull off a really good Bruce Wayne, but I'm not sure I've seen him be able to pull...

River Song - the Doctor's Wife. Time traveller, adventurer and played by the delightful Alex Kingston. Now Alex Kingston is an excellent actress. I have no problems with her appearing in Doctor Who and she brings a lot to the role. If only the role...

With the PS4 and the XBox1 coming out soon, the latest ads showcasing them are all starting to come out. Most of them are as you would expect, just general ads for the systems. But this one caught my eye. It's not really an ad, more a complete...

Another of the late great actors has also now gone. I'll always remember him for the good films like Lawrence of Arabia or the Lion in Winter and the bad films where he still out-acted everyone like High Spirits and Supergirl. A glass,...

Since it's been a while since we did this, I figured I'd start it up again. Today I'm putting up "Bloodstained Heart" by Darren Hayes. I've always enjoyed his vocals, but this song really surprised me. The guitar on this track is particularly...

Yeah, so I was all last few days thinking holy fuck shit, maybe *Finnegans Wake* really *is* the greatest novel ever written. And then, choosing a new floor to study on today, I was like "Hey, maybe that suckbag who subjects classics got a...

I am not much of a celebrity news person, and only see 5 or 6 movies per year. I watch TV occasionally, but not that much. I saw "Top Gun" and "Risky Business" when I was a kid, but besides his involvement with Scientology, know little about Tom...

Used to be I could go to a place like cra**ed.com (don't want to spam the place) and load up a bunch of bullshit to go read and sometimes laugh at at my leisure. So, that place apparently thinks its staff and adjunct employees are whatever, like...

I just want to see what my post count is right now. http://images.joke.co.uk/images/webshop/custPhotos/small/22728a.jpg Gah, I can't even post img tags!

1. "The Weight" being played in the background while something happens. 2. Eva Green getting naked. 3. William Sanderson doing something.

One of Herbie's recent Norton lectures, titled "Buddhism and Creativity" is worth looking at. Reddit's "jazz" subreddit is actually a pretty interesting forum, for being so large. I am still miffed some chippie at school like ten years ago never...

Yeah, so it occurred to me, if this is to be an acceptable board, there should be a thread devoted to one of the established forms of formal, musical expression. So, why not bebop, to take one well-formed example. ...

They'd both be Shorts, but: The Play (end of '82 Cal-Stanford) The Flutie Hail Mary in '84

Yeah so this guy is OK I guess, but he illustrates my point that don't even bother modulating fancy through the fourths/fifths -- just go up by half-steps. My cite? this video, and James Brown's Live at the Apollo album. THAT, my friends,...

Yeah, so it seems after searching google for a few seconds, some "people" do the fashion thing. This. Whatever. I prefer function, liking my long umbrella for when it might seriously rain, but always having my shorter Totes in my...

When a company decides to build a skyscraper, do they ever put out call to artists to create pieces/murals for the interior?

How far in advance are they shot? Assuming she's in the 2016 edition, how noticeable will Chrissy Teigen's (unretouched) bump be? Assuming she does bf, I assume shoots have enough downtime for nursing breaks?

CBS counting down top SB ads. My favorite: Bird and MJ playing HORSE for Big Mac meal. Who would you put in the 2016 version? I'd pit LeBron against either KD or Curry.

I was chilling with my uncle today and he had some funny old videos of me and my nephew playing piano at some Christmas, and me drunkenly playing a piano on the sidewalk. I didn't want to find a way to seamlessly get these from his ancient phone...

I'm sure that if you watch certain shows, you see that they are working towards creating a romantic relationship. I'm sure you probably screamed at the TV,"Get them together already!" Surprisingly, TVTropes doesn't have a page with that title. ...

Can you think of any TV show/movie (besides the JUST occurred to me "Call the Midwife") in which a ROUTINE, PLANNED home birth is depicted?

I joined instagram, but am yet to post anything (primarily because I unsure how). In light of this fact, what do my followers (I have about 150) actually SEE in my feed?

My sister and I have feuded over what I say on Facebook about my nephew (nothing bad or IDENTIFYING). I just realized that the DEFAULT setting means ANYONE on the internet can read posts! Why wouldn't "friends" be the default setting?

Who would you cast in all Latino(a) or Asian-American versions?

He couldn't outrun cancer! I know Biden won but otherwise 2020 can just GO FUCK ITSELF!

How would it be described if: John Smith created the characters in a movie Tom Johnson (with John's input) wrote the screenplay

This is the podcast I'm doing about the life of Preston Tucker.

Let's do this: Please first the most-played album or song on your player, then list the last two things you loaded onto it.

Sean Lock was a British comedian who died recently, and I figured Americans/Canadians might not have heard of him, so here's some of him in action. https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=F1Zl1TRDJs0

I've always hated birds, kind of. Because the most prominent are the .... refrain from comparing one of god's creatures to a shrieking harpy or merman ... crows that are constantly shrieking and crapping all over the place. (btw Vergil's...

Yeah, so not sure what the policy is on starting threads. Don't see too many here, actually. Yeah, yeah, OK. So I saw *The French Connection* again the other night, and the first half of *The French Connection 2*, which I hadn't seen, and,...
