Heh, this was actually where I went to first.

All along the watchtower. You know the series if you've seen it.

About to head out to see It. The mini series is one of my favorite films ever, but I'm excited to see how the film follows the novel more, and the cinematography of it. Everything I've heard is great.

So it took me a good couple of minutes before I realised what it was that you were going to see :lol:

Enjoy mate.

Finished reading Kings of Cool for the 2nd time. It's the prequel to Savages. Am I the only one here who really loved the Oliver Stone adaptation?

Thought "IT" was alright. The horror fell pretty flat for me but that kids were good.

I haven't watched a full season of Supernatural since season 5 but can we take a second to acknowledge how insane it is that it is still on TV? It premiered in 2005, I was still in **** high school and The CW didn't even exist yet.

Supernatural had a bunch of good ones



That was probably my favorite

Same with me. The original writer stopped. The beginning of the 6th season seemed weird. I tried to watch for a little bit with Leviathans and gave up. probably watched a total of 5 episodes post season 6.

3rd season is moving to a new team entirely. No longer East Mississippi.


Yeah, just finished it all. Buddy Stephens is a **** piece of ****. Just a representation of everything that's wrong with coaching, IMO. He thinks he gets a bad wrap because of the language he uses, but it's not that. It's because he's a terrible leader and role model.

I felt bad for some of these guys who he coached, although they certainly earned criticism as well. I'm looking forward to seeing some of these guys play the Badgers this weekend - Deandre Johnson, Tim Bonner, and John Franklin III all play for FAU. I don't know if I see any of them actually going pro, though.

I felt bad for Ms. Wagner, too, though she seemed to enjoy the spotlight as well. I hear she's running her own company these days.

Isaiah Wright said it perfectly in one of the last episodes when he said he was a great coach but doesn't know how to read and communicate with people. The scene where he sent off his OC in that bowl game was despicable.

Really enjoyed IT. Had a good Stranger Things vibe and not just because the one actor is in both.

I thought IT was really good. It was creepy, funny, and well cast. Too many corny jump scares, though; movie would have been better without them.

IT was a ton of fun. Ritchie and Eddie ran away with some of the funniest lines. Banter between all the kids was great. Skarsgaard was perfect as Pennywise, though would've been cool if he got some more lines. Movie made $51 million just between Thursday night previews and yesterday so it's already made back the budget plus another 15-16 million, looking at an opening weekend well over $100 million. Glad to see it doing so well already.

You're right. And the way he kept showing up his DC in game after game was amazingly unprofessional. It's no surprise that they both left the staff after the season was over. There is a 0% chance that I would work for an **** like that.

Bojack Horseman came back this weekend. If you haven't seen it, give it a shot. It's a damn good show.

Battle Star Galactica. All along the watch tower.


It was a mind blowing moment for me. Sometimes I still youtube that scene and get chills.

Oh man, I'm a page behind and got so excited about the question I didn't even want to take a moment to click to the next page to read the responses.

This was such an iconic moment.


If we are doing theme songs of TV shows, I'd say the late 80's show: Tour of Duty (Painted Black), and early 80s I loved the "Believe it or Not" theme song to Greatest American Hero.

I think the unrecognizable version of All Along the Watchtower as Cylon beacon was the moment that show lost me.
