NBC 10: Dave & Buster's to allow customers to bet on arcade games
big#44 replied to Cooked Crack's topic in The Tailgate
Well per the article their stock is up 50% in the last year so apparently not. Family Entertainment Centers like them are actually booming -
Rey was actually Emperor Palpatines granddaughter. Kylo was the last skywalker by blood until Rey decided she could just change her name to skywalker.

Good for Saban for firing back. I had to sit here and watch FSU fans chase away Jimbo Fisher a few years back and look where that got us. Alabama is on the greatest run in college football history. Alabama fans should have zero complaints. Kinda looking forward to the day Saban calls it and they have to live with being mediocre again.

The Official "Marvel" Thread (Movies,Comics etc)
big#44 replied to BRAVEONAWARPATH's topic in The Tailgate
It was ok. Didn't bring anything new or exciting to the MCU. It's basically a lore movie and not much else and I think the fatigue is starting to set in. Marvel hasn't had a great movie outside of infinity war since Civil War. These movies all just play like an episode of a bigger tv show now. After endgame i might be checked out. Downey and Evans are carrying these movies and without them idk how much longer they'll be able to carry on unless one of these other actors steps up in a big way. -
Here's one I feel stronger about as time goes on. The Captain America trilogy is just as strong if not stronger than the Dark Knight Trilogy. The only area where it doesn't compare is in the portrayal of villains.

Big time. The introduction of crossbones, planting Bucky as a big character going forward, even a bit of foreshadowing with him holding the shield during one of the fights. I think its a story that will play out very well on the big screen. The only thing is there's no hero who can be unmasked in a big dramatic way as a result of the superhero registration act. Spiderman was that character in the source material, but everyone knows the identities of all the avengers.

Lets pump the brakes here. Maryland would still have to get past Michigan State to even win the division.

I can only speak for my specific application, but Rock Auto online has a moog LCA for around $80. From shopping online on Autozone, etc, they all seem to be at least $40-$50 more expensive. All that said, I think I'm just gonna go with Moogs and likely never worry about them again. I could get 2 day shipping and probably still come out cheaper than buying Duralast brand from Autozone.

Is there a big difference between brands of OEM parts? I'm replacing a lower control arm and an inner tie rod (probably all of them while I'm down there) and I was just curious if there was that big of difference between say Moog, and Duralast or Dormanor whatever over the counter stuff Autozone and the like sells. I've never had experience with Moog products but people swear by them and I'm actually able to find them cheaper online than the Autozone/Napa/OReiliy brands would cost me. The only downside is i'd be without a car for a little bit longer while I'm waiting for them to ship.

Lone Survivor. I heard about this project because I'm a Wahlberg fan. The trailer just came out and wow. Based on the book by Marcus Luttrell who tells the real story of a group of 4 Navy Seals in Afghanistan who take on over 200 enemy. As the title suggests only one of the seals survived. Never read the book, but damn if I'm not gonna pick it up now.

Looking forward to Thor 2! I feel like his movie was kind of lost among all the others since he was probably the least popular of them all to begin with. The first time I saw Thor 1 I thought it was a good but not great movie. The whole spacey thing was kind of a detraction from the more realistic Iron Man story and I wasn't into it as much. However after seeing The Avengers and watching Thor a few more times, I've grown to like the movie and the character as time has gone on. I feel like now that his whole back story is out of the way, they'll be able to explore a lot more in this sequel.

Wow, I couldn't agree with you more if I tried. No sane actress would chose to make the movie mad money (costarring, ahem, queen latifah and diane keaton) over The Dark Knight. So she definitely had some Cruise Crazy in her at the time. TDK still ended up being a 9.99/10 movie, but if Holmes were in it, it would have been a solid 10. Maybe on day Nolan will go back and in George Lucas fashion replace Maggie with Katie in all the scenes. I mean, at least a guy could hope.

The last movie you saw......GO! (After you read the OP!!!!)
big#44 replied to renaissance's topic in The Tailgate
FYI your link is broken so I have no idea about what movie you're talking about. But val kilmer sounds interesting so know I really want to know which movie it is. edit: disregard I didnt realize it was clickable. But I've heard a lot of good things about Kiss Kiss Bang Bang and I'd like to see it. -
Maybe I'm the only one on here that likes this series. Ok i'll admit the 1st one was bad in a good way, the 2nd was just plain bad, the 3rd was forgettable. However the 4th was solid, and I thought Fast5 was pretty darn good. It really got away from the corny street racing culture and focused more on the whole action/heist/car chase theme. It was like The Italian Job on steroids, and this one looks to be more of the same. And then we have Pain and Gain, Michael Bay's latest. It looks like it will be more "Bad Boys" and less "Transformers" which is good.....I think? Either way I'm a Wahlberg fan, and shutting my brain off to see him and The Rock in an action flick can't be too bad. On another note, the movies is "based on a true story" (im guessing real loosley) I read parts of the MiamiNewTimes article that tells the story and it was quite a bizarre tale. I could see how this movie could be classified as a "Dark Comedy".
