Wow, I downloaded this show on a whim and am suitably blown away by the excellent show The Fades. If you can find it, I absolutely recommend watching it. Hard to describe it, but it's sort of like an episodic version of The Pulse, but don't allow that movie to color your viewing of The Fades as it's much better. With only two episodes aired so far, of which I've only watched the the first, saving the second episode for late night to boost the creepy factor, I'm hooked already! :cool:

This is an excellent horror/comedy movie called Tucker & Dale Vs Evil and puts a much needed twist on the typical Hillbilly vs college students horror sub genre. I've had the movie for a couple months now, but still enjoy putting it on for friends that come over. Lots of laughs and lots of gory deaths to rival that of the Final Destination series. If you are heading to the theaters this is one that will be well worth your money! :cool:

Anyone going to be making the upgrade to the new iPhone 4S? I was really hoping for something 'more' from Apple opposed to this incremental change on the hardware side. However I've been sitting back with the iPhone 3GS for some time now so I might as well take advantage of my Upgrade discount and make the move to the newest setup. I'm mostly happy for the software upgrade of iOS 5 though which should make some much needed improvements. :cool:

As much as I'd like to hold out for the inevitable iPhone 5 that will likely launch at the more usual Spring time, I'm currently on the iPhone 3GS so this upgrade now will still be worthwhile. Plus, I totally want 64Gb of space and the upgraded processor should be a treat. Being a DSLR shooter, I care not for the cameras on cell phones, will never be a make or break feature for me. I will admit, Siri does look fairly awesome as well. :cool:

yea, it waz real disappointing to see that this upgrade not going to be the inevitable iphone 5..... there doing the same thing with the next ipad which aint even gonna be the Ipad 3 like everybody thought, but The Ipad HD which is gonna be preety much exactly the same as the ipad 2 but with better screen resolution....
its like apple is just trying to stay consistent with releasing new products along with there new ios firmware updates, jus so they can always have new products on the market at all times of the year. Which it almost feels like there watering down their new tech just so they'll still always have a new attraction to incorporate in there next generation devices....
I think its a smart business practice, but for true techies its Bullshit....
so on that note i just might wait for the Iphone 5 or Ipad 3 to come out instead
I agree with what you said, though I read an article stating basically that their formula of releasing new hardware (3G, 4G) and half new hardware (3GS, 4S) is based off the 2 year contract scheme of the carriers. People aren't likely to upgrade to new tech if it means breaking the contract, so they do the incremental update for anyone who hasn't adopted Apple yet and then the full update in time for the early adopters contract to be up for renewal. So, to me it does seem like a mix of all that has been stated on the subject.
I've yet to be impressed by the iPad. It still seems just like a bigger iPhone/iPod and thus no need for me to buy just for the bigger screen. I've been dying a little on the inside with the glut of tablets that has been released thus far. In that, I've wanted to jump up and run out and buy one of these Android tablets for some time now, but they are just now starting to have features that I actually want. USB ports/hosting for instance, and mostly they've barely been getting this right. I fail to see what the big deal is.
I want a tablet for productivity in my workplace/on sets. Not to sit around playing games, twatting (twitter), or facebitch (book). lol :p I want to be able to pull up my images from my camera and review on a bigger/portable screen, I use DSLR so it's Compact Flash not SD. I wouldn't even mind first putting images on laptop and then onto usb to view on tablet. They just keep dumbing down these awesome tablets to be casual consumer experiences instead of focusing on the awesome business potentials. At this rate, Microsoft will have the ultimate tablet I want, but I'm still holding out for Android as I really do like what they've been coming out with, just can't justify the price when I still can't use it practically on set.

yea i feel you completely! An your right An Ipad is basically just an big screen Iphone....But yea A multi ported tablet would be awesome to use for shoots to quickly review images on set....an iv seen some good android ones that im extremely tempted to get, like the Samsung Galaxy, Toshiba Thrive, or the Motorola Zoom, all seem like pretty damn good tablet choices.
I got a idea Remy that could work with what your trying to do with reviewing images on any tablet without a usb port.....You could just buy a wireless compact flash card for your DSLR to wirelessly send the pics you take to your PC automatically, then download a streaming program on your tablet, such as StreamToMe or VLC Streamer to instantly view them from your PC on your tablet.... It should work theoretically!:cool:
BTW Since were on the topic of Apple...RIP Steve Jobs...:(
I have been trying to give the wireless CF cards a little more time to develop as it's fairly new compared to the SD wireless cards.
Yes indeed, RIP Steve Jobs

Understandable, I collect shows for archiving and love to watch them in marathon format as well!
Me too!! Sadly, I just started watching this show this season so will enjoy going back through the previous seasons to get caught up. Will have to go out and find the box sets.
***Spoiler Alert****
I didn't see it as Walt doing that, despite seeing the plant at the very end. Seemed more like Jesse backed Walt into the corner and Walt came up with the most logical explanation for why the kid was poisoned. After all the damn cigarette was missing. :eek: Maybe I need to go watch the last two episodes again. I mean, what you are basically saying then is that Walt actually did poison the kid right? :confused: I don't think that's what happen, the kid tried the berries and got sick. Jesse came at Walt waving the gun making wild assumptions and Walt said what he thought happen on the spur of the moment. Walt mind was a bit fractured at this time with everything going on, the maniacal laughter in the crawl space at the end of the third to last episode shows that. I don't think Walt had the wherewithal to go so far and poison the kid or really plot out that specific series of events. Walt was thinking big, i.e. explosives after the poison in cigarette bit failed.

Im with Kasseen on Walt manipulating that whole situation. Walt got the ricen or risen, however you spell it, from Jesse in the Meth Lab when he asked for a cig. Thats when he took the poisoned one, flipped it and lit it up. Then before the whole Brock poisoning part where Walt is sitting by the pool spinning the gun on the table, on the last spin it points at the same flower pot from the end of the finale episode.
As for how he poisoned Brock, I got no clue how he would get close to him so maybe Saul was involved with that. Ill leave that for season 5.
And yea Remy watch em all, its been on fuckin point since the beginning
Yea, I dont know exactly how he poisoned him yet, as they'll probably explain that in the next season,(either Saul, or the night before the finally when he visited Jesse at his girls house) but he had to as all the evidence suggest so....
I believe Walt basically planed his move out to get Jesse back an turn him back on Gus by playing off his emotions (known issues between Jessie an Gus about killing kids) and by using unknown science to Jessie 2 trick him by using the non lethal plant poison and making Jesse think it was the lethal risen instead....
Thats my best solid theory....
Yea Exactily!!!! i waz going to go into major detail to break it down 4 remy after i rewatched them this weekend but drunkmonkey pretty much jus summed my words up completely!
Basically Gus an Walt were secretly playing a real life game of chess an they were both using jessie as a pawn in order to kill each other, an win their "game".
b/c just a as Walt said at the end talking to his wife..."I Won" an indeed he did :D
Well explained you two, that all seems to make sense to me. I do remember the bit about the flower and gun so I'm with ya'll. ;)
This is probably too low-brow for this section of the forum, but anyone excited about the Avengers movie? http://www.reelz.com/movie/262408/the-avengers/
lol Absolutely spinning in my seat waiting for this! I was on the IGN site waiting for them to post the trailer the other day and was beyond happy and slightly sated until Summer 2012 which, really can't get here soon enough!!! :cool:
I'm a Marvel nut so I'm beyond pleased with the merging of the multi films into one cohesive film and I'm still pinning my hope that it'll be a Skrull invasion, orchestrated by Loki. I just read an article about the upcoming Marvel Tv Shows in the works, and one of the plot lines discussed was very similar.

Yea Remy you will see how they sprinkle clues at you through out the series like the flower pot whenever you watch the rest. And did yall go "what the fuck" like I did when Gus walked out the room after the explosion? I was like this nigga is invincible, until the slow pan to the other side of him lol
And cant wait for Avengers, the loki/skrull plot is "confirmed" but who knows. I wanna see them fight Hulk at some point though
I heard the Skrull plot was a "go" but who knows. The carnage being wrought in the trailer means it's something massive. And several sites are reporting that although the Hulk is in this, Bruce Banner is actually the key character not Hulk. Who knows though....:confused:
Wow, what a fantastic episode of The Walking Dead! Easily the best that I've seen from the show thus far!
***Spoiler Alert***
I have to say, the first 30 minutes was arguably the best, and had I been there, well I may not have made it. :eek: lol Fucking hiding under the cars!! I would have been like "fuck that shit", I'm running lol or at least trying to get on top of the RV with the old man. So excited to see what the next episode has in store and the fate of poor Carl and Sophia, two kids possibly checked out already, SoLd!! I love this show!!!!

Just read an article saying that the US will do a remake of the excellent British show The Misfits. Basically, delinquents doing community service gain super powers and all manner of mischief ensue.
While the Being Human USA remake isn't too bad, I really don't think the British nature of teenagers will translate well, and the joys of this show aren't in some random kids getting super abilities, but in the culture they live in and how they react to each other. I think if you use Hulu you can watch the original British version online, only two seasons in so far and in typical British fashion each season is only 6 episodes long, so will be easy to get caught up on what is an awesome show and what can only be a total catastrophe in American hands.

Ohhhh I want one of those!! :D That sub machine gun, appears to be an AK-47u. I'd actually rather have a MP5, as the AK-47u is a mini chopper bound to rip bodies apart, but zombies would keep on crawling. I'd take the less stopping power of the MP5 for the enhanced accuracy and the much more plentiful ammo of 9mm rounds. With the MP5 taking head shots would be a breeze for any lay person. :cool:

The Misfits is great, did I put you onto it? The remake is likely to be horrible, cool great looking kids made to look like geeks (with shiny teeth and cool hair) and none of the really dark humour. I saw the Shameless remake and despite the inclusions of William H Macy ... it sucks.
Nah, I have some other mates across the pond that recommend shows that I might like. Recent new shows I've picked up include, The Body Farm, and The Fades. You are right about Shameless though, I love WHM, but that show isn't worth the time at all in the US incarnation.
I actually can use your help though as I'm sure you are one of those Facebook users. I found this link http://www.channel4.com/microsites/M/misfits/main.html with a mini movie for Nathan, but you have to be a fucking FB user to see the bloody thing. I refuse to join that site, but would love to watch this episode as it explains what happens to Nathan as he wont be returning for Season 3. Why does every thing have to revolve around FB!?! Truly wish that bell end never created that site! If you could download it and let me catch it I would be oh so grateful!

I'm usually fairly suspect when American comedies are involved. I'm not one of those people whom just watch a movie cause it says Tyler Perry on it, actually that's almost guaranteed to get me to not watch it, but I digress. 30 Min or Less is a very funny comedy that had me busting out laughing on multiple occasions, and while not as funny as The Hangover band of merry men, it is still very good indeed. Certainly worth a buy from the DvD isle. :cool:
