Robert Rodriguez has his own TV channel now.... It's amazing. It's basically Kung-Fu and Godzilla movies one after the other.


I've seen so many new amazing Kung-Fu flicks over these last couple months.
The only film I've seen of his is Spy Kids 3

what's serial?

it's a podcast. http://serialpodcast.org

On January 13, 1999, a girl named Hae Min Lee, a senior at Woodlawn High School in Baltimore County, Maryland, disappeared. A month later, her body turned up in a city park. She'd been strangled. Her 17-year-old ex-boyfriend, Adnan Syed, was arrested for the crime, and within a year, he was convicted and sentenced to spend the rest of his life in prison. The case against him was largely based on the story of one witness, Adnan’s friend Jay, who testified that he helped Adnan bury Hae's body. But Adnan has always maintained he had nothing to do with Hae’s death. Some people believe he’s telling the truth. Many others don’t.

it's really accessible, well done and incredibly addicting; it helps that you can listen to it whenever. it's already one of the most popular podcasts on iTunes ever I think.

...hate me...
I have a problem m8s, u have to help me.

I am addicted to FIFA 15 Seasons.

I'm probably approaching 700 matches.

It feels great to get better and better but it doesn't achieve me anything and I waste all my time with it.

I always want to play one more match.

It just became compulsive.

It's an addiction.

I think I should sell it and not look back

But maybe only after I become Div 1 champion

Or even better, get the Platinum trophy

Since this is sucking the life out of me, might as well share some of my moments in Seasons.

This is probably the best I'll ever achieve, in terms of W/D/L and general accomplishes. 8 seasons, 8 division titles, 46/5/7. On my second account:

The way Div 2 is going, all this is getting ruined

Got to Div 1 on main account though.

When Division 4 match making goes wrong (not for me!)

Absolutely insane match, (I was Porto). Check the goal timeline:

Also a neat match:

Bonus a fresh backheel 83' 3-2 NeyGOD goal against RM.

I'm in the mood for a Wes Anderson movie. I love the dreamlike mood of his movies, it's utterly fun. I've yet to watch Rushmoore, Bottle Rocket and Moonrise Kingdom.

Loved The Grand Budapest Hotel to bits, The Darjeeling Limited (dunno why, it just clicked with me), The Royal Tenenbaums. I genuinely don't remember a single thing about The Life Aquatic with Steve Zissou, so I probably need to rewatch that at some point :lol

Personally think seasons 3 and 4 are way better than 1 and 2.

in retrospect, I think 3 was only slightly better than 2.


and HOLY FUCKING SENSATIONAL SHIT at Vidal's finish. THE ABYSSWALKER IS BACK

Having a family meal later, my aunt and uncle who support Arsenal will be there. Not sure how the conversation will pan out, if Liverpool win we'll be talking about how Wenger has to go (they feel he should have left years ago) but should Arsenal win I'm sure we'll be talking about how Rodgers has to go.

A draw will be fairly anticlimactic :p

Rumoured team:

Jones Toure Skrtel Sakho Henderson Lucas Gerrard Markovic Lallana Sterling Coutinho

That team sounds about right. Slight worry about Markovic defensively as a wingback. I definitely want him on the pitch though, maybe as another position. Worried about Gerrard being a passenger as he was in the last two games in this position. I would have Moreno as lwb, and play Coutinho deep instead of Gerrard. Markovic in Coutinho's position.

Agreed, Gerrard needs to be dropped.

What are your thoughts on Henderson this season? He's been moved about quite a bit and doesn't play as badly as others in our team but isn't one of our best performers either.

I want to say sorry if I've ever offended anyone in here. It was not my intention, if I have, I hope you accept my apology.

Offending someone in this thread? Highly unlikely. Unless you were having a go at Plug. He's not used to the banter culture.

Can you post your Schalke LineUp for FIFA, linus?

Pretty standard. Farfan and Huntelaar are the key players providing most of the danger. Neustädter is brilliant with corner kicks, made quite a few goals with him.

Henderson is suffering for being too versatile. He's basically being used to plug holes and that Rodgers knows that he is reliable. To get the best out of Henderson he needs to be played in a position where he is allowed to run from deep, past the striker or link up play around the edge of the box. I would also argue that his long range passing is more accurate/consistent than Gerrard is now.

I think he is sort of wasted as a wingback, as he is not going to dribble past his opposite man. That's not in his skill set.

Who cares what Platini thinks, it's not his award to give and at ghe end of the day it's just his opinion

I woke up early and have been trying to sleep all morning to bypass the nerves. Had a dream we were winning 2-0 at half time and we'd missed a penalty then ki hit the post but he was playing for Newcastle...
