one, "labia".

Two, how can you value vaginal appearance anywhere near as much as an ass

Maybe your girls have one labia, but I have the ability to sniff out the ones with multiples.

I didn't say that there wasn't value to the ass. There is.

I was just making a sidenote that she strikes me as the type that has a nice puss. That's of importance to me.

Both are valuable.

So I'm watching the new Terminator right now and wondering, if Sarah Connor knows that terminators are coming after her, why does she even bother carrying weapons that don't even remotely bother them? If I were her, I'd trade in all those useless pistols for about a dozen fifty cal sniper rifles and maybe a couples of Deagles. Just seems silly to carry around a bunch of weapons that are essentially useless against the things she is totally aware are coming to kill her.

Also, Emilia Clarke wasn't a great choice for Sarah Connor because she is absolutely awful at hiding her accent. She's not really a great actress even when she's able to use her native accent, so she just seems a little ridiculous in Genisys.

Mild spoilers to follow...

While we're on the subject, why did they travel forward in time to the day before Genisys was about to be released? Why not travel, like, a month before and have some fucking time to put together a plan? I know they weren't originally planning on going to 2017, but still...just seems crazy to jump to the day before and cross your fingers that you have enough time.

Oh, and Sarah going forward in time at all just seems like a terrible idea. What happens if she fails and dies? She's just ensured that humanity's savior will never be born and, presumably, we'll all die horrible deaths.

Still got like an hour to go. I'll give it a score and a review when I'm done.

All the movies are stupid with regard to the weapons they carry. Shit, they don't need .50 rifles. Old RPG-7s will do a T-800 in. Never see them. The new 20 mm programable munitions, that attach to a M4, would put them down. Never see them. Various rounds one can use with the M203 grenade launcher attached to M16s etc. Guardian Arnold could use a Mk-19 and wreck all other terminator models. Or a fucking 40mm Bofors L/70. Or any big, "stationary" heavy weapons system normal humans cannot carry.

HEAT rounds of any size. Use them. Or not. I'm sure buckshot will do a heavily armored combat robot in.

You are correct. Labia is plural. They only come in pairs.

I do believe the scientific term for one lobe of labia is "piss flap."

Yeah but in the first two movies they at least have an excuse. Obviously in the first movie Sarah Connor was an oblivious waitress who had no knowledge of what was about to happen, and Reese was limited in the weapons he was able to acquire by the fact that he arrived in the past naked and having no idea where anything was. In the second film, Sarah was in a mental institute and didn't have access to her array of weapons until later in the movie. Not that they'd really help against the T-1000 anyway.

It just seemed a little silly to me that, in a movie where the characters have every knowledge of the things coming to kill them (at least until the new model appears in Genisys), they actively carry around a bunch of weapons that are wholly inadequate to kill those things back, or even really slow them down in the T-1000's case.

As far as the movie itself went, it was a decent enough action movie. The plot was kind of stupid and convoluted for a terminator movie, though. The set pieces were fun but the story itself wasn't very good. I agree with gouri that it had a lot of solid "laugh out loud" moments, but it was nowhere near as good as the first or second movie, and I think it tried too hard to come up with a crazy plot to set itself apart from the last two sequels.

I'd probably give it a 6 out of 10. It was watchable and I wasn't bored, but it was also super dumb. I'm not sure if I'd rank it above or below Salvation (haven't seen it in so long). It's definitely better than the third movie though, not that that's a huge challenge.

Watching Jurassic World today. I hate how movies today have to have cell phones cut out all the time to avoid people being warned about impending danger. It's so fucking lame. And if the cell phone voice reception is cutting out, send a goddamn text!

"Killer dinosaur loose. Get to safety ASAP."

These kids suck anyway. I hope they die.

The basic premise of this movie is just a little ridiculous since it exists in the same universe as the first movie. "Hey, let's build another theme park with all the same dinosaurs as the original! What could possibly go wrong?" We all saw the first movie, guys. Everything fucking goes wrong.

 

[David.]

one of my favorite parts was when it predictably cut out, due to noapparent reason, the chick wasnt even particularly worried and didn't even emotionally acknowledge the fact that it went out.. she's just like"yea whatever"

I laughed a LOT through this one. San andreas followed it, what a ridiculous night

You'd think after the incident at the first Jurassic Park that they would have built some sort of infrastructure that would allow people to hide safely in the event of another similar incident. It seems like their entire emergency plan is just to fucking panic.

You'd also think that they'd have more than like ten military guys on the entire island.

Jack, this is exactly what they do in Genisys. Lol.. They literally went out of their way to demonstrate that the Terminator and Sarah have planned for literally every contingency, every outcome, the whole nine.

They had the T-800 pegged the moment he arrived - laced. The T-1000 got lured into a trap - laced. Once that was done, they moved on to the second act to destroy Skynet; but Kyle introduced a new dynamic they hadn't previously considered (going to 2017 and not 1997).

Once they got to 2017, everything was fucked, and the gameplan was out the window. All they had to go on was some latent memories that only Kyle Reese had.

It's why I actually really liked the first two acts of the film, because they didn't do stupid shit acting like they had no idea what was coming. They knew exactly what was coming and acted accordingly.

Why'd they tone it down?

Dude...please watch GoT.

We're in need of a Gour breakdown for the ending of the final episode

Ted 2 - Not really much of a Seth MacFarlane fan, as I've always felt his humor tries way too hard to be offensive rather than smart, but I enjoyed the first Ted well enough. The second one was pretty solid too. Not an amazing comedy by any stretch of the imagination, but enough laugh out loud moments to make it enjoyable. I'd give it a 7 out of 10. The fight scene at Comic-Con was great.

Oh yeah...Patrick Warburton dressed as the Tick at Comic-Con was one of the best inside jokes in the movie.

 

[The Oi]

I absolutely hated Ted. South Park ruined Seth McFarlane humor for me. The whales putting joke combinations together was dead on and I could never get it out of my head for Family Guy.

Cosmos is the only thing he's been involved with recently and that ended up getting a bit heavy handed with the alternative energy bit at the end, so I got annoyed with him again.

How did people feel about World War Z? I watched it the second time last night looking for some cheap thrills rather than anything that took any thought.

I like apocalyptic themese, which is why I enjoy a lot of zombie movies. I like seeing people broken down to that fight or flight, survivalist aspect.

I thought it was overall enjoyable, but there were moments where I was very annoyed by lack of realism. I had no problem with the capabilities of the zombies. I'm willing to accept hat the rabies causes them to achieve physical feats that are at the absolute maximum capabilities of human beings.

I was just more annoyed by the Hispanic family not leaving their apartment, their kid running out and shooting the zombie attacking Gerry, the fact that people were relocated from the ship when there were really no safe areas outside of it and other small things.

I thought it was worthy of about a 7/10, but I felt like if done properly it had a shot at a good 8.5

The issue for me was that I read the book and it was really good. The movie had absolutely nothing in common with the novel other than zombies to the point where I have no idea why they even bothered licensing it to begin with if they had no intention of even trying to adapt it.
