Have you watched Mandalorian yet? 

Have not. I'd have to buy Disney+ to watch it and I'm not interested in another subscription for just one show. If it is eventually offered per season or episode as a purchase I will give it a shot.

I occasionally try to get angry about Star Wars and the current direction but then I remember that Star Wars has been terrible since 1983 and I stop caring (exception of Rogue One which I thought was an excellent bit of Sci-Fi)

I am a huge Conan fan and this movie really disappointed me. What did not was the Solomon Kane movie. I thought that was excellent.

I was 18 years old and in the U.S. Army at the time.  I was flying back home for a visit and I had a lay-over in Charlotte, NC.   The airport was not busy as it was like 3 am or so. While walking to the gate of my next flight I saw "The Nature Boy" Rick Flair, he was waiting on his next flight as well.  I went up to him and said, "You're the Nature Boy!", and stuck out my hand for a handshake.  He replied with one of his signature "Woo!"s that boomed up and down the airport.  He shook my hand while saying, "Damn right I am!".

My hearing is still messed up 32 years later.  Damn that Nature Boy!

That is a great story. Thanks for sharing.

Well now that I think about it, not so much a bald spot as his bald head.

Phil Collins once blinded me with his bald spot back in 1998.

Soundtrack please...

The line from the EC's to the Undergrounds is incredibly direct, running right through HELP!  Kurtzman gave a lot of the underground cartoonists their first national exposure in that magazine.

See for Men is a great little title with some excellent covers.  I don't collect the title before 1959 (as it's a different kind of mag) but from 1961-1964 has some good stuff!  

Here's a link to others if anyone is interested:

Love those covers. I'm impressed, walking around scaffolding and on beams in high heels! Plus, not a good choice of clothing for that windy environment.

I did not mind the first one. It was a decent fantasy film. A sequel could be fun.

Yep. My daughter and I both enjoyed the Movie. It was good fun.

Any plan to address this?

...and yes @Flee-Marquette that is a none-too-subtle request for a Tupperball-Z composition.

It is 2020 and I am still getting a notification for this thread?    Tupenny didn't slow down after this award and went on to greater things. 

@TupennyConan has super saiyan'd up mentally and now spends his time mocking his inferiors in the WC.

It's psychology, apart from a few studies based on a handful of well established psychometrics, nothing is consistently reproducible and you can prove anything your heart desires. I'm sure there is another study proving video games promote feelings of depression and alienation.

I knew I should have bought a Vamp number one when they was CHEAP😡

It's all relative. I bought mine for $400 each back in 2000. Seemed expensive then. $3000 may not seem so bad 20 years from now

They are shortening the run.

Last 2 episodes will run back to back 29th Nov - 6th December timeslot now vacated.

Irony, the show itself is now the walking dead.

I was imagining a scenario where you download digital content to a device which has DRM; for example Audible books. Consider a scenario where the DRM is put into a permanent lock mode based on a licensing issue with audible.

Edit: You do own digital content on your hard drives.

Maybe. Dependent on DRM applied to that content on your hard-drive. I plead to being an ignorant consumer related to the actual rights afforded me when buying digital content on Amazon. Was fairly shocked to learn my entire library could possibly go poof. As stated, "Physical content is king". This will change my purchasing habits.

Of special note as John Byrne's first published/professional artwork.

With the development of deep-fake technology lets just keep young Harrison Ford as Indiana for perpetuity.

That is the Jim Warren, Frazetta coffee stain.
