Really! Really? Mars Blackmon!!!! Air Jordan's would not be the same without Mars Blackmon. -
I am still not going to see this at a movie theater. But the latest trailer I saw with the "Power of pain compels you," made me laugh. So if it is actually still in the movie. I will be making a Redbox rental.

Commercials That Annoy, Irritate or Outright Enrage
Watcher0363 replied to Maverick's topic in Commercials
I will forgive you for your ignorance, since you were just visiting the South. The proper way to take Goody or BC powder. Is to dump one or two packages into a 6oz bottle of Coca Cola or RC cola. Then let the magic happen. I swear in the 70's and 80's old timers like my grandfather and his peers were addicted to that stuff. Today I use that combination as a barometer, show me a young person buying Goody or BC powder and I'll show you a drug addict. -

Technically this commercial is about paint. But for true connoisseurs of the butt. This add is all about her truly magnificent butt. When this commercial first came out I had to find out who that woman is. -

If you are, or have ever been able to acquire Viagra for 30 bucks each. Then you should be one wealthy person. At today's prices 30 bucks would be a 25% to 50% discount. Years ago when Viagra was about 100 bucks a pill. You could have sold those things for 75 bucks and people would have lined up around the block for them. -

Well, it's not like they are referencing dingoes eating babies. -
Shortly before the release of Into Darkness, the studios have been on a campaign to let people know they are dumbing down Star Trek in order to get a wider audience. Well they have succeeded, by putting really bad Star Trek on the screen and alienating good solid scifi fans and totaling ticking off hardcore Star Trek fans. But they are not worried, because now they have the Hunger Games crowd set, streaming into Star Trek movies. They could easily make a cerebral Star Trek that makes lots of money. But it would take someone with a good bit of S.T.E.M. knowledge and understanding of the vastness of space along with how good strong confident military organizations function. Ahhh But! We are truly in the golden age of Young Adult Chick Sci Fi.

I liked the movie, that is saying a lot for a Bryan Singer movie. Must say the woman playing Jean Grey, has a very powerful sexuality about her. Just like the young Virginia Madsen.

From Wiki: This was my original supposition. Frigidaire is the American consumer and commercial home appliances brand subsidiary of European parent company Electrolux. Frigidaire was founded as the Guardian Frigerator Company in Fort Wayne, Indiana, and developed the first self-contained refrigerator (invented by Nathaniel B. Wales and Alfred Mellowes) in 1916. In 1918, William C. Durant, a founder of General Motors, personally invested in the company and in 1919, it adopted the name Frigidaire.[citation needed] The brand was so well known in the refrigeration field in the early-to-mid-1900s that many Americans called any refrigerator (of whatever brand) a Frigidaire. The name Frigidaire or its antecedent Frigerator may be the origin of the widely-used English word fridge, although more likely simply an abbreviation of refrigerator which is a word known to have been used as early as 1611.[1][2][3] -
Jurassic Park took place on one Island. Jurassic Park two and three took place on a different island. Do not know which island Jurassic World took place on.

I was trying to stay out of this because of how much hate I have for this poor excuse for Star Trek. These rebooted characters, are so far from the characters, especially for the women, that were in the pilot for Star Trek. Now I know the original pilot was never aired by it self but as part of a two part arc with the final 1960's cast. But the depiction of the women were so superior to the women of this rebooted garbage. I remember how much I loved the character of number 1. Now having said that, in reality, the closes any form of Star Trek has gotten to the pilot women, has been in Deep Space Nine and Voyager. With most of the Voyager women, being a pleasure to watch, week in and week out. And for sure the women of Voyager certainly knew how to handle romantic relationships in a professional manner. Which the same cannot be said for this Uhura. Uhura as a tactical officer, now there is a laugh, this rebooted Uhura has no sense of tact. Kissing, pouting, arguing and being relationship bitchy while on duty and in uniform. Way to portray a strong woman in any century. As for the job title of Communications Officer, if this was good Star Trek, the job would rate a bridge position at this point in the Federation history. After all you are just beginning to explore the galaxy. With messages on all frequencies from subspace to the full spectrum of radio waves, coming at you weak and at the speed of light, while you are moving through subspace at speeds of 300 to 400 times the speed of light. Not to mention having to distinguish between back ground noise and actual language from any number of species. In short this reboot garbage is bad fiction from a science point, military ship point, and depending how you view good leaders with the fate of many others in their hands, a good leadership point.

Bryan Singer can not direct X-Men movies very well. Disliked his original X-Men movies. It was if he did not know how to show or represent his characters powers. Rogue was so under utilized, that it boggles the mind as to why they even had her in the movies.

I have said it plenty of times around the World Wide Web. It is a shame what they have done to Star Wars and Star Trek. They have turned them into Young Adult Chick Sci Fi. With really bad plots of derivative fiction and even worse science. That CinemaSins is really a great break down of what I posted here http://alteredegos.net/index.php?topic=13413.0 , back in January. I am not happy with what is happening with my childhood sci fi. C'est la vie for old guy me.

I should be spanked, severely chastised or perhaps shot. They played out, or purloined, the Michelle and Lilly arc from Magnum PI. And I am just now figuring this out now. Well played writers, even the photo nod, no "Detroit Tigers", but close enough. My TV archival card should be suspended for missing such an obvious theme. Sorry for the Magnum PI spoiler had to be done.

They should have crowd funded for a good cgi Ziva. Hell I would have contributed. Abby you need to break out the good Vous Deux mojo and de hell mouth that desk. I will call my shot now. RIP Bishop.

I must admit that, "What a Man", commercial freaks me out a little. I always see Bing Chandler scarred by his dads cross dressing lounge act.

The writers do not have an easy job when it comes to the Inhuman story line. They are pulling processes and procedures from the Marvel Universe. Which most people know nothing about. After watching Guardians of the Galaxy, which I did not quite get. I read an overview on the Inhuman universe. All I can say is that it is highly possible that over 10000 years ago some great Kree intelligence either saw the the events of today or through a very sophisticated algorithm got an overall view of where the planet earth would be at certain age points in its history. The Inhuman's could be genetically modified along the lines of the insect world. Where it produces what ever type of workers it needs to sustain itself. It was clear that Daisy's mom was royalty of some kind. Most of the Inhumans changed or not, followed her lead. It is highly possible that Daisy is a pheromone based Queen. In the sci fi world we all know how the bodies pile up, from falling on swords or jumping on grenades, to save the pheromonal Queens.

It's a bear to do a remodel of any kind. Perhaps it would have been better if they had a female dog walking around the bathroom, when discussing the remodel. -
Ziva's name being thrown around is NCIS's version of click bait. Trying for that extra 100,000 viewers.

They are baiting so many of us with Ziva David being shown and mentioned.

S03.E19: Failed Experiments
Watcher0363 replied to ElectricBoogaloo's topic in Agents Of S.H.I.E.L.D.
Well isn't Daisy the "all in", "ride and die", inhuman. Was it just me that thought Daisy's "drain me", was a sexual metaphor for bang me anyway which way you like. For I am here to service you big boy or maybe that should read daddy. Daisy yet another young pretty talented woman with the ultimate weakness of daddy issues. -
After viewing that trailer I think the Magnificent Seven Culturally Diverse Heroes with Feminist Girl Power! Would work too. I would love to see how this was pitched to the studios.

I think a Japanese film critic said the same thing about 55 years ago.

I'm with you, a little younger. I have no idea what vocal fry is. I heard examples of it, and cannot say anything jumps out at me, as unusual.
