    Poltergeist 3

    I happened across Poltergeist 3 while channel surfing the other night. It was not a great movie, but it was fun-dumb instead of boring-dumb, so I ended up watching most of it. While the writing is so-so and the acting made me roll my eyes a few times, the movie is interesting for a technical...

    Have you guys ever seen some of the Flat Earth discussions on the internet? It's the conspiracy theory to end all conspiracy theories. Apparently in the last few years there has been a resurgence of the belief that the Earth's surface is flat, the North Pole is at the center, the outer rim is...

    DMG purchases movie rights to Sanderson's Cosmere novels

    http://variety.com/2016/film/news/brandon-sanderson-cosmere-movie-adaptation-dmg-1201902500/ That is excellent! However I'm not sure it's a good idea for them to start with The Way of Kings.

    Which Star Trek movies passed the Bechdel Test?

    So which Star Trek movies passed the Bechdel Test? Off hand, I can only think of two: Generations (Lursa and B'Etor talked to each other) and Insurrection (Troi and Crusher talked to each other) Am I forgetting any others?

    Peeple - Useful new app to help cyberbullies harrass others.

    Can we all agree that the upcoming app "Peeple" sounds like a really terrible idea? Do you think this will catch on? https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/the-intersect/wp/2015/09/30/everyone-you-know-will-be-able-to-rate-you-on-the-terrifying-yelp-for-people-whether-you-want-them-to-or-not/

    The popular dinosaur once known as Brontosaurus has been officially called Apatosaurus for decades, because it was determined that the fossils first dubbed Brontosaurus were members of the previously named Apatosaurus genus. Apparently, there has now been published a study arguing that the...

    Ann Coulter on Soccer

    What do you think? Has Ann Coulter final gone off the deep end? Or was she never on it to begin with? Her recent column on soccer sounds like a spoof: "Any growing interest in soccer can only be a sign of the nation's moral decay." http://www.anncoulter.com/columns/2014-06-25.html#read_more

    William Shakespeare's Star Wars

    I was recently reading and enjoying this thread on another forum, playfully imagining how Star Wars dialogue might have sounded if Shakespeare had written it.

    They are rebooting... The Naked Gun?

    I didn't expect this one. I'm not sure what to think. Anyway I thought the first movie was hilarious, the second was pretty funny, and the third was dreadfully unfunny.
