War Room Lounge v98: “Yes I’m a gangster and I committed that crime.”

I have also wondered how much they had to change to accommodate Cotillard’s pregnancy. I have to believe she would have had a bigger role in the movie.

And yes, Hardy was great as Bane, but still miscast and yes the fight scenes were pathetic. It was close to being good, and TDK was close to being great, but really doesn’t hold up - outside of some individual performances and the cinematography it’s actually a mediocre movie.

I rewatched it recently and honestly I felt the same as you do. Maybe its because I've already seen it so many times but the last time I saw it I just didn't enjoy it much at all.

in parts of SD I've seen some

and then huge parts of Eastern SoCal is full of them
think all the east county SD people that have lifted trucks, or the desert yeti's out near me

OC, too. We were at a bar full of people praising Trump. I had to tell my boys, who were Republicans and voted for Trump, to get me out of there before I couldn’t hold my tongue any longer.

speaking of comic movies, it's embarrassing that besides Blade II and then Daredevil the Netflix series, that fight scenes are grossly overedited and not done well. At all.

FFS DR Strange went out of it's way to waste the talents of Scott Adkins

There is NO objective reason why this fight scene from a straight to streaming Universal Soldier sequel is EXPONENTIALLY better than any fight scene that's not in Blade II or DD on Netflix

I actually drove around with intentions to buy the secret double cheeseburger cheapy meal for like 5.75 but ended up at the used store instead and bought a used hedge trimmer and it works now I'm eating cheeze-its for a snack cause I missed lunch and am in that awkward too close to supper kinda place

I try to keep mixed nuts around for that situation. Wholesome snack, good protein.

@Rational Poster was it you I was talking to about Tarkov?

I don't know probably.

I just got off a pretty long Tarkov bender over the past few weeks.

I'm very experienced with the game and have been playing more or less since the early access started like two or three years ago.

my son is 6, but he's been decent at BF1/5 and CoD since he was 4

imagine getting merc'd in Battlefield by a 5 year old, that's gotta suck

Fewer jail terms as a result of:

Browser history of Biden supporters (-900)
vs.
Browser history of people who call him a (+850)

vig goes to the Sanders campaign

My step dad plays those types of games. People getting mercd by a 70 year old has to be about the same.

I lived in Germany when CoD MW and World at War came out and were huge (and Black Ops 1 for that matter)

There was nothing, and i mean nothing, more embarrassing then getting wrecked by some 10 year old French kid talking shit on Euro servers

it felt like we actually died, unbearable finality and all (shoutout to Nick Nolte in Hulk for that line)

Wasn't that a GOP stronghold for decades? I think 2018 was the first time it went blue since before Reagan.

Yeah, but they thought he was amazing regardless, and at least one group we ran into has some firemen who were all about Trump. One guy even started negging AOC. It was like being in a real life War Room thread.

Yes, always, but I didn’t expect it to be Trump country.

Yeah but the SALT cap on itemized deductions fucked some people. Cali, NJ and NY took the burnt of that.

And it showed in the 2018 midterms

Didn't the House just pass a bill in December to lift that? the SALT cap
nevermind, the Senate isn't going to pass it anyway

should ask our esteemed SB mod Revo about OC
i'm fairly certain that's where he lives and works
as do quite a few of the posters in the NBA thread

like half that thread lives in the Inland Empire, another quarter in Canada, and the rest is FL plus a few randos haha

There are ton of tax proposals going on because they fucked up the legislation so bad, along with the Dems wanting to roll portions of it back.
