    Predators in 2010

    in Anime or Science Fiction

    Posted

    Actually, I quite liked Predator 2.

    Not as good as the original of course, but still a respectible film in it's own right.

    So for me, there's: -

    Only 2 Alien movies.

    Only 1 Highlander movie.

    Only 2 Predator movies.

    Only 2 Mad Max movies.

    Only 1 Robocop movie.

    Only 1 Matrix movie.

    Oh, and while not genre movies, there's: -

    Only 1 Lethal Weapon movie.

    Only 1 Die Hard movie.

    Any sequals to the above are just figments of someone's feveed imagination and don't actually exist.

    Isn't it just some hick killing zombies with a geek, an edgy-cool chick & some wee lass? I figured the trailer pretty much summed it up. Am I wrong?

    Kinda. You got the characters right, the running gags make it, so if you don't like those you might not want to watch. It's pretty gory for most zombie movies unlike Shawn. Rabid-type movies. I did the 5-buck weekday deal, I don't think I would have paid 10 bucks for it.

    that's quite promising. will look into that when i shop for PC parts.

    does that work for HD audio, and if so, will it pass-through undecoded streams (for decoding in the receiver)? or does the decoding have to happen on the mobo/soundcard and it's already a PCM stream being sent through the video card route?

    It's off your sound source, most mobo's have it, some soundcards, so no the videocard won't encode but I don't know the output quality.

    Have YOU ever been banned from an internet Forum??

    Gotta love how almost everyone here, that got banned somewhere, thinks its some mod's or other member's fault but never their own. :lol:

    BTW: Never been banned from anywhere, but I think I was close to maybe getting a temp ban here for starting the Zardoz incident. :ph34r:

    That's because you're easily wipped. If you've been around the internet enough you find that if the "community" is really small it's just a bunch of "friends" who want everyone to agree with them, or if it's rediculously large they'll have a number of mods who like to powertrip. Good communities that have been around enough get mods who do stuff for hilarity sake, like I think it was Roy when somebody called him on a mistake he edited his post and the post of the guy that called him on it.

    So yeah MODS = FAGS :lol:

    Seconded. Also, can't it be linked to with a NSFW warning?

    Who's going to go here during work?? I don't think showing your favorite shows include a guy who forces bad music down everyone's eardrums and this other guy everyone wants in a dress is good for your professional life.

    how about not, maybe we should just lock this tread. :mellow:

    Yeah, twice, from a major TF site from Illinois, and I hate that site. All stemming from one incident. I bought a single lot of Armada/Energon/Cybertron stuff from a mod there about 3-4 years ago. He claimed they were all complete, some were MISB, etc. So I pay him, and it shows up about 2 1/2 weeks later, some missing pieces, some broken, and no MISB stuff. So I emailed the guy, saying I wanted my money back, and he told me he "took the liberty" of opening the MISB stuff to save on shipping, when he overcharged me for shipping by 15 bucks anyhow. He also said that they were all "complete and unbroken" when he sent them, basically accusing me of lying and said I wasn't getting my money back. So I started blasting him in his for sale thread, and anywhere else I could. Our PM's got heated, and he used those as evidence (I'm guessing) and banned me. Sold the lot on ebay and luckily got most of my money back. So about a year goes by, I signed up with a different IP address, and was a member. 2 of the mods there knew it was me, but kept their mouths shut because they knew I got the shaft. So I post on there for maybe about 6 months, and I wrote a post that hinted at who I was by accident, and the evil mod PM'd me. So we got into it again, and I said I was going to go to a site admin. about it if he didn't leave me alone. So I get a PM from a site admin. there, saying that if I didn't drop it, I'd be banned again. I then PM'd the evil mod, saying he could ban me all he wanted and that I ought to go out to where he lived, since I had his address from the shipment I got (which was about 4 hours from me at the time), and beat the hell out of him. He said he'd love to see me try it, and banned me again. So 2 weeks later I went on a road trip with a buddy from work, went to his house, and he showed up about an hour later. I confronted him and told him who I was, and he just kept yelling "leave me alone" and trying to walk in the house, to which my friend was blocking his way. So I hit him in the face and he dropped, then I hit him a couple more times. Never even hit me back once, just screamed and yelled. I jumped in the car and left right away. Never heard anything about it again. I don't advocate fighting, I really don't, and this isn't some BS story about being a badass, it just got to the point when it was about justice. I wasn't even going to fight him, that wasn't my intent, I had my MP3 player set to record and I just wanted him to admit he wronged me. But when he started trying to run away, I just got so pissed off I snapped. Anyhow, it wasn't worth it, and I regret it. I didn't even care about that site anymore, I wasn't even into TF's really anymore. I will say however that I think that site is nothing but a bunch of favorite-playing, nasty little cliques, and suckups, IMO. I don't miss it, at all. This site totally blows it away.

    That's the man's way of handling it! :)

    I've been banned yes, but sadly not in anyway fun or amusing. Just for pointing out when the mods are being dicks or whatever and can't handle criticism. Sure I get banned from L4D matches all the time but that's because life isn't going my way and I take it out on other people.
