  1. I’m rooting for this movie to do well enough so that it can “Cody Rhodes”. @onlyweaknesskryptonite
  2. Just got back and wanted to see what y'all said... I very much enjoyed it. It surpassed the David Lynch version in every way imaginable from casting, to cinematography, to camera shots and editing. I thoroughly enjoyed it and was disappointed that I have to wait three years for the next part. I went to see it in the theater because I felt I dropped the ball by not seeing Oppenheimer in the theater. I had some time on a Sunday night where I could block off four hours to go see this film from the point of leaving my house to the point of return and I knew that time would not come to me again for awhile. I would recommend it.
  3. Here... just use this site. https://ssyoutube.com/en164qB/youtube-video-downloader
  4. I just ripped it and saved a copy. Anything else you want? Post the video. I will rip. I will make it available in a google drive or send via WeTransfer.
  5. HA! That's probably the account associated with Kevin Smith's store if it is located in Red Bank.
  6. Because sometimes brittle can be SO brittle that I have seen flakes floating around in the encasement.
  7. I had a Golden Age book that I bought that was designated as a Slightly Brittle. The person who bought it from me CPR'd it. It went from a 2.5 to a 2.5 with Light Tan to OW pages. However, I had a book CPR'd that went from a Light Tan- OW to a Cream to OW. I have seen similar stories.
  8. Yes they have changed the page quality scale depending on who is looking at the book. It really is a toss up sometimes especially when it has that middle ground of whether or not it is Tan to off white to cream to off white, Cream to off white vs off white, or off white to white or just white.
  9. Has Ultimate Spider-man been any good? The only title I pick up in hard copy is "Amazing".
  10. I have said this MANY times before. Slightly Brittle to Off White has gone to Tan to Off White or even Off White on a resub.
  11. There is a difference. Guardians WAS the last in a trilogy with only Groot and Rocket most likely to appear again down the road since "anyone" can assume the voices for those characters. Star Lord was a pleasant surprise that he would return. Daredevil is being marketed as an event where it's more of an introduction to new things. Deadpool is joining the MCU. There is a very different feeling about this movie. Now, if they were not marketing that it was Daredevil joining the ranks of the Disney Marvel universe and it was another stand alone Deadpool movie, then it is likely that I would not even bother with the film. The ambition is high on this film but it does seem to warrant it.
  12. I really liked Oppenheimer. Nolan is of a dying breed of directors where his name alone sells a movie and it lives up to the hype.
  13. If you are looking for a quality custom then they are possible to find. They are usually priced a little higher due to the printing process on the minifigure. Your $3-$5 knock offs are fun but are discernible. There are a few guys out there doing things that look as if they are factory generated. Keep in mind though that certain figures may never find their way into lego's lineup due to the content that they are associated with. Lego usually has a "no realistic violence unless it is historical like knights and pirates and western" in their themes. So, you can imagine how surprised that the company that pulled a Technic Osprey due to its association with military usage , inserted a Punisher minifigure into the Daily Bugle set so who knows? Lego's most recent statement on military sets and violence in relation to the Osprey set: "The LEGO Technic Bell Boeing V-22 Osprey was designed to highlight the important role the aircraft plays in search and rescue efforts. While the set clearly depicts how a rescue version of the plane might look, the aircraft is only used by the military. We have a long-standing policy not to create sets which feature real military vehicles, so it has been decided not to proceed with the launch of this product. We appreciate that some fans who were looking forward to this set may be disappointed, but we believe it's important to ensure that we uphold our brand values."
  14. Ahhh DC Collectible Minifigures: https://www.lego.com/en-us/product/dc-super-heroes-series-71026. (This one has Stargirl in it) Lego Batman Series 1 and 2 https://www.lego.com/en-us/product/the-lego-batman-movie-71017 https://www.lego.com/en-us/product/the-lego-batman-movie-series-2-71020. (Series 2 is stronger and has the Wonder Twins, Apache Chief, Vacation Joker (killing Joke version minus hat), Black Canary) Here is the current list of all 521 (as of now) released DC minifigures and all variations from blind bags and sets. https://www.bricklink.com/catalogList.asp?catType=M&promoCatID=247 Dr. Fate has never been officially released. However, Blue Beetle appeared in only one set (Ser# 76054) almost ten years ago in this incarnation:
  15. So you share my estimation prediction? I agree, the $1B or bust idea is not a good measure of success. I am taking a small break from Oppenheimer at the second hour. Lighthouse is coming along.
  16. Like I said I am about to watch Oppenheimer. I was going to start on Avengers Tower but might finally start on this for the office.
  17. I think $800-900 million only because it's getting even easier to pirate these things, see them on demand, or just wait it out on the streaming service of choice. I am about to sit down and see Oppenheimer on Peacock which was a movie I promised myself I would go see in the theater. There are a growing number of people that are retaining these various streaming services even as they raise prices and eliminate sharing abilities with the trade off of those same people saying that if they are paying for them, they may as well use them to the best of their abilities.
  18. Still wishing we got to see a two month buildup between Punk and Rollins. Now, supposedly Rollins' contract is up in the air shortly after Mania and he is probably going under the knife at some point anyway due to nagging injuries. It should make a great return though for both when they come back. In the meantime it is good that WWE is making use of Punk in some way as they did at the press conference for mania.
  19. I honestly have to say, the best IC Champion in the LONGEST is Gunther. I would have liked to have seen at some point Roman v Gunther with both holding their respective titles. However it looks like Cody finishes the story in about sixty days. @jaybuck43
  20. He knows it. He sees it. He is ignoring it.
  21. If you know what this meme is from you are awesome
