I visited a prison once for one of my classes that was on Psych and Law and we went over the Prison Industrial Complex.
It was San Quentin by SF. Pretty interesting environment.

Interstellar not being on anyones top 3 is blasphemy.

Just curious, have you seen any of the top 3 I listed?

Interstellar was really good, but it was derivative (read: 2001: A Space Odyssey).

Guardians of the Galaxy definitely deserves at least an honorable mention. Love that movie.

Lego Movie was very good, but ultimately not that good.

How to Train Your Dragon is one of my favourite animated movies, but 2 was formulaic; too much of the same.

Captain America was good. Liked the political thriller slant.

the others are garbage

I saw the first two and i still think interstellar was better.

Sorry to go OT but I'm planning to buy my wife a good pair of basketball shoes and thinking of buying her some Kobe's. Any recommendations? Was thinking of getting some 8's for her.

Supposed to order pink Js but she doesn't want anything that looks chunky.

safest course of action is to get whatever she wants

Apparently there is an NBA D league tournament a block away from my house where the Warriors d league team plays. Every team will be there. I might go and watch the defenders play. Go get an autograph from tugs if he's still playing for them.

what a compelling and substantive rebuttal. henceforth, all my progeny will be birthed an inherent, unwavering belief that insterstellar was indeed a top3 movie of 2014.

can't you just let people like different movies?

ennui · Post #3538 » by **ennui** » Sat Jan 17, 2015 12:23 am

Well, ofc everyone is entitled to an opinion but like dude is making dismissive statements without a stance. Opinions are opinions but they're should be some rationale behind 'em, right?

Hermes, you for instance, have an affinity for animated movies; this justifies your opinions regarding the movies of the year.
