    I'm going to HK only, not PRC. I work for a HK based ISP so that I was I'm going there for certification training, ugh. I say ugh because it looks like I may not have any real downtime to check out the city while I'm there. I will eat well on the company's dime, that's for sure!!

    Star Wars + Christmas = TOY$!$!

    Last time my company sent me on a business trip was in 2011 and my IT department loaned me a old laptop with a Celeron processor. It was actually heavier than my Predator 15 and was so weak it could barely run Firefox, not an exaggeration. I didn't want to deal with that crap again. The Predator 15 has weight but it cools really well. I think that's the trade-off when it comes to weight vs heat in buying a gaming laptop.

    JJ Abrams is the Starbucks of directors, competent but zero originality.

    My company is sending me to Hong Kong this month and I didn't want to deal with a crappy company laptop that they would loan me so I bought a Acer Predator 15. It's slightly heavy but it has amazing specs, mainly the 1060 GTX w/G-Sync.

    Looks great. Won't have to time to see it in a theater though.

    Was at Target yesterday and they are going full Star Wars with their promotions for the film with signs, cardboard characters and new toys.

    I finally watched the season finale on my DVR last night but it was kinda ruined by my idiot friends on Facebook plus Youtube suggested videos too. He is conflicted because I suspect he made a deal with Cersei.

    It's called suspension of disbelief

    This is the best television series ever.

    I upgraded my 7 year old Samsung LED monitor to a Acer XB252Q monitor with a 240hz fresh rate. They were going for $100 off at my local Microcenter so I jumped on that deal. The higher refresh rate is no gimmick, makes graphics so smooth. On a side note I had to exchange the monitor because the first one had dead pixels. Brick and mortar stores still have their uses https://www.acer.com/ac/en/US/content/predator-model/UM.KX2AA.001

    RIP Sonny Landham. He was 'Billy' in the first Predator. He actually wanted to be a state governor too! http://variety.com/2017/film/news/sonny-landham-dies-dead-predator-1202533278/

    Oh yeah, the interviewer sounded like a complete idiot when she compared Terminator to Star Wars and I think she realized that later in the interview too.

    Thread resurrection time! I actually paid to watch Skyline at a theater when it was released. It was a slow weekend. Anyways, it had decent FX but was awful overall. I'm surprised a sequel is being made but it actually looks better than the first film. But that's a low bar. A very very low bar.

    James Cameron is a perfectionist. Must suck being his butler.

    Very satisfying season so far as I was expecting a lot of build up for it's last season.

    My female friends on Facebook can't stop posting about... Dickon!

    My almost three year old little girl loves Batman and she prefers the old Adam West series the most. I'm hoping these new movies comes to Netflix or Amazon soon as the 1966 Batman film isn't on Netflix since over a month ago This photo was just taken today and her birthday party next month will be superhero themed. She'll most likely be wearing a Batman themed dress or costume.

    It isn't Game of Thrones but yeah, Disney keeps the films a tad too safe. I think of the main reasons Captain America: Winter Soldier was so good is that I actually thought they killed off Nick Fury.

    Took a lot to wear that suit for as long as he did. RIP

    I read the rest of the season has been leaked online so I'm trying to avoid the spoilers. Already had one coworker talk about it today, ugh.
