Some of the soundtrack choices were cringe. Especially since two of the tracks were ripped straight from Guardians of the Galaxy and are tracks from the 70s...

And no, it wasn't just IMAX. I was in an XtremeScreen session and his audio was fucked. Couldn't understand shit.

I recognized one from Guardians of the Galaxy (Spirit in the Sky), either I didn't pay attention or forgot what the other track was.

I'm hesitant to say that it ripped off GOTG since it's all licensed music, but the movie does seem to draw some parallels to it that stuff like that makes it more pronounced.

What ultimately separates both movies is GOTG feels genuine and had a lot of love, Suicide Squad is like the fucked up mirror version, pretty much like Superman to Bizarro.

 

[Yawnier]

I was gonna go see Suicide Squad next week but meh maybe I should go see Star Trek or something instead.

 

[CosmicQueso]

Is this Rotten Tomatoes?

 

[CreeperBlocks]

Is it just me or has this summer sucked for movies in General?

This summer has been pretty dry for movies.

Marvel movies killed the blockbuster space

Not just you. This has definitely been a weaker summer for blockbusters.

 

[bonesmccoy]

I watched Batman v Superman, finally.

It's a perfectly acceptable comic book movie. After it settled down it was mostly enjoyable. I liked it a lot more than Man of Steel.

Fuck it I might even go see Suicide Squad now.

 

[Quick]

One of my favourite parts of Batman v Superman is Wonder Woman. Her theme music is fantastic.

 

[Smiley90]

Went to the Vancouver NightNation and everytime I'm at a mass event here I'm amazed at how attractive Vancouver's general population is. Seriously crazy.

 

[Quick]

I went out to a local event and one of the women at a booth was pretty fucking hot, but she gave me the "country music only" (only dates white guys) vibe.

Go see Star Trek instead.

So my last name is unusual and the beginning part of a racial slur.

My first ever girlfriend when I was 15 told her family my full name while I was on the phone with her. I shit you not, "Is he a *********?" were the first words out of her sister's mouth. I was young and just didn't see it as the red flag it was. That was unfortunate.

 

[Silver Arrows]

It kind of sucks the Chapters near my house closed down. Always nice to come back home and curl up to a night of reading.

 

[Socreges]

Pretty sure I just stole Evander Kane's taxi

He approached me saying it was his. I didn't say anything, dumbfounded. He relented. Just glad he didn't choke us

Beyond was pretty awesome. I really had fun watching it.

You're not in this family are you?

I haven't had this kind of encounter thankfully, at least in terms I understand.

I dated a Vietnamese girl briefly in high school and I met her mom. Immediately they get into an argument and she implied that her mom was upset that she's dating someone that isn't Vietnamese.

Nothing like eating up time at a bookstore.

Thank your lucky stars your came out of that in one peice.

I got soc in that beef, except that one time he ko'd cooke he seems like a poser

 

[Socreges]

Also the cable lock on my bike, stationed at Canada Place, got cut. The U-lock remained and probably deterred the actual theft. Surreal

A night of danger and close calls....

Wait til you get home and catch hrtc in your house

 

[CreeperBlocks]

Not just you. This has definitely been a weaker summer for blockbusters.

Hopefully 2017 will be better

 

[lamaroo]

Not even close. But I'm glad you enjoyed it.

I thought GotG was a good, enjoyable movie, and thought the same about SS. I'd give the former the edge, but not by much, although that could be my preference for DCs characters.

If I were judging it technically, they wouldn't be nearly as close. Have to give SS props for

refusing to make the characters into heroes. They're bad people, who do bad things, and they accept it.

< not really a spoiler

Hated the Joker though, the rumoured cuts sound so much better.

 

[Kuro Madoushi]

AHHHH WTF

LOLOLOLOL this is fantastic, Dopey!

Just saw this, loved it. Ranks up with Corst Contract and OG Khan.

Should've thrown off your shirt and yelled "fight me." That was your moment of fame Soc.

 

[zroid]

omg the New Zealand rugby ladies are playing again, they're so good

 

[CreeperBlocks]

I just realized that Nashville acquired a #1 centre, #1 defenseman and #1 winger all through trade.

That's insane.

I think people shouldn't underestimate the Preds.

That Defence is Deadly. The only thing I think is holding them back is the Goalie Situation.

Rinne is Jekyll and Hyde, one game he could look like a Veznia Candidate then the next he could look awful

I would've thought Kane was an Uber guy, but I realized that Vancouver doesn't have Uber.

Almost got choked out by Kane and almost lost your bike.

Better try the lottery.

Poile is a pretty good trading GM. Except for the Cody Franson trade. Muahahahahaha

Those Canadian fencing masks are intimidating for some reason, lol

Look at the trades though, he's just preying on idiot GMs.

I miss the times when my GM used to do this

Pretttttty much

It's like looking at that Clarkson trade as anything other than a gift from the heavens

but Marc said big trades don't happen anymore

Same with Yzerman.

He gave you guys a big trade

 

[alexthekid]

That's insane.

While this is true and I consider all 3 trades as good to great from their perspective, they also traded away a #1 D (for a better #1 D) and an exceptional D prospect for the # 1 C.

What In trying to say is that it is hard to get # 1 players If you havent aquired the assets from drafting. McPhee has a limited number of potential # 1 you can trade for scrubs.

S. Jones trade might still turn bad in a couple of years.

Canada looking awful against GB

Canada looking awful against GB

I saw that live this morning. Woof.

Patio update: Stones are down. Some of them, anyways. Went on vacation and came home full of contempt for this half-finished job.

Anyone watch the Brazil vs Lithuania basketball game?

Lithuania won in the end, but it was almost one of the all-time great choke jobs.

Wait for me, I'll get it done in December

I cannot for the life of me raise an ounce of caring for the summer Olympics.

I care for none of the sports.

Winter Olympics >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

 

[Syrinx]

Olympics are decent background noise but not much more.

 

[Quick]

I like watching the Olympics, partly as background noise. I haven't been able to watch anything during the day because of work, so I've just been checking out highlights.

I did manage to watch Women's Beach Volleyball late last night, which lasted to about 1:00 AM ET.

 

[SCHUEY F1]

I'm not a fan of judged events.

Useless. You obviously know nothing of the terrain here.

AHHHH WTF

Thank you for this Dopey, I'm cashing in my RSP and betting it all on the Leafs winning the Cup this season.

Volleyball is so good
