That thing is ridiculously cool!

That is so awesome man! Congrats!

I got to see I Now Pronounce You Chuck and Larry today. It was a really, really great film. Im a huge fan of Adam Sandler, and I was extremely pleased with this movie. It reminded me of Anger Management, where it was really funny, but not as silly as his earlier works like Billy Madison and Happy Gilmore. It also veered away from his artsy movies like Punch Drunk Love and Spanglish. This movie redeemed him from the dullness that was Click.

Happy B-day GMC! Hope you enjoy it.

Im really enjoying Jedi Outcast. I love going into the Jedi Arena section and doing an 11 man free-for-all lightsaber-only battle.

I am really excited about this. Thank God it is a stand alone movie. The series started getting really wacky after awhile...

This is a bit long, but very random. It is a retelling of an event I experienced at work tonight. I work for the man at Wal-Mart (dont hate me...I needed a summer job) as a customer service manager. Below follows a telephone conversation I had with a customer. Her name has been changed to emphasize her guilt. "Hi. Thank you for calling Wal-Mart" "Hi. Whos this?" "My name is Rob. How can I help you?" "Rob, listen. I came in about a week ago, and bought about seven pairs of pants, and three or four pairs of the short pants. Not shorts. You know. The capri-type things." "Ok." "Well, I got home, and was sitting on the toilet when it fell in. I went to get it, but it was gone. I want to return the pants and get my money back." "You want to return the dirty pants?" "No, they're not dirty." "You just said that you dropped them." "No, I dropped the receipt, not the pants." "Oh, in that case, as long as the tags are still on the pants, it wont be a problem. Just bring them on in and we'll give you a giftcard." "I'll get my money back?" "Yeah, as store credit." "But I'll get my money back, right?" "Yeah, as store credit." "Ok. Good. Thank you. You are so helpful. Tell them I'll be there in a week or two." "They don't need to know your name. People return things all the time." "But dont you want to tell them my name?" "Sure. What's your name." "My name is (crazylady) and Im about 5'10'', blue eyes, curly black hair...it looks really nice because I just got back from the stylist." "Ok (crazylady) I'll let them know." "And whats your name?" "Rob." "And what do you look like?" "Uhhh...Im not around much, so you wont be seeing me." "Ok. Tell them I'll be in around 2 weeks." "Ok. Bye." "Bye. So about an hour after that conversation, (crazylady) came into the store and wanted to return the pants and get cash back. Of course, our policy (as any retail store is) is that no receipt=no cash, but store credit. Well, she wouldn't hear anything of it, and was going on about how she needed to return these pants so she could get a recliner because her legs hurt. She even resorted to pulling my name out, claiming I told her she could get cash in exchange for the pants. In the end, she left the store...with the pants still in her hands.

No way man. Tomorrow. The Simpsons Movie comes out on the 27th (WOOHOO!!!!!!)

So this thread will be for us to discuss the final Harry Potter book, as well as the series as whole. Do not check this thread out until you have read the book or don't care to receive a fist-full of spoilers. And please, let's stick to the book, and not internet rumor and whatnot...

Yeah, I meant they couldn't do that in the cartoon show from the 80s. They were stuck with their initial vehicle selection.

I can't believe that I did not catch the Knights reference. That's pretty cool. Edit: Seeing how there are so many Pottheads (Harry Potter fans) here in the forums, I think we should move this discussion to a new topic, which will be all about spoilers and whatnot, so one would not read or post in there until they either read the final book, or just say "to hell with it" and want the spoilers for themselves.

JH, that is hilarious!

From what I vaguely remember, when they first crashed on Earth, they melded with the first broken-down piece of machinery they could find, and that was it. I dont think they could pull a Mystique (in a sense) and morph into anything they saw...

That was ridiculous

"Mesa Darth Rob. Mesa like you bunches."

Tae Kwon Do was interesting. However, the school I went to concentrated more on the moves and "forms" (or kata, as I think some arts call it) and working out. It did not have a heavy emphasis on sparring or self defense.

I got to see Transformers tonight. I enjoyed it. It was corny, but was still funny, and the effects were awesome. I also enjoyed the altered storyline and what not. However, something seriously disturbed me about the movie. In the end, the human guy gets the human girl. Its to be expected. The two take part in a massive battle against giant alien robots, of course they are gonna hook up after. However, the end of the movie scarred me. In one of the last scenes, the guy and girl are making out...ON THE HOOD OF A TRANSFORMER!!! The two are getting ready to do the nasty on top of Bumblebee, and that really disturbs me. Its as if they are going to have a threesome with the alien car! And the icing on the cake is that, in the background, Prime is standing there, enjoying the show. This movie leaves me asking one question...are they Autobots or Pervertabots?

Its simply that it there is a distinct difference between the prequels and the ot. I dont think any of us truly hates them. Sure, we have gripes about them, when we compare them to the classicness of the ot. The ot had this feeling of timelessness to it, and the story telling was superb, with little reliance on special effects. The prequels seem to lean more on flashy computer animation and such. But thats just my opinion.

Ah yes. I'll be seeing Transformers on Wednesday. I am looking forward to it. Ive heard more good than bad, the worst being from my future brother-in-law who went to see it, fell asleep, and then walked out in the middle of it...

Thumb Wars. Steve Oderick (sp) was retarded in those. The best he did was Kung Pow. Now THAT was a classic film.

Got to see Harry Potter tonight. I was relatively pleased for the most part. Of course they left things out and tweeked certain events to make them happen at more opportune times for the movies sake. But that is to be expected from any movie about a book. My biggest concern with Umbridge. She acted like I would expect her to, but didn't look right. I expected some ugly, old toad-like lady, but instead you get a pleasant granny. Other than that and the leaving out of some things, I was pleased, and look forward to the Half Blood Prince.

@Eagle: Wow...I dont know how I missed that. Sorry for trying to steal your thunder...

Happy b-day K. Hope you enjoy it.

For those of yo who remember that video I posted a few months back with Will Ferril and the baby landlord, here is a new one he did with the baby. Will Ferrill in Good Cop, Baby Cop

The best part about this thread is that Hamburglar is leading in the polls!!!
