So there's a debate about Muslim extremism going on in the Gamergate thread... I thought about trying to read and figure out how it got on that tangent but then I remembered that I don't even know what Gamergate is about, and I don't care...

Nor should you.
 
Glad I still don't give a f*** about that thread.
 
Clippy, keep that Spawn avatar of yours for good.
With it, it's easy to read your posts in the voice of Keith David.
 
Well Muslim extremists are the snobbiest. Like "we're pros at terrorizing and ****" ...b**** **** you, before you there were the Nazis, then there were the Ottomans, then the Conquistadors, then the Knights Templar...you ain't all that yet. :o
 
are you sleeping all the way through DJ?
like did you sleep 17 hours straight?

No I crashed at 1:30pm-ish then woke up around 5, smoked a cig and ate a turkey leg then passed back out. Then I woke up around 11pm and thought it was morning, ate some cake and passed back out around 12:30am then woke up around 8am. It was not a productive day off

At least it was a day off.
Easier than losing a day of work, sometimes.
 
So the Suicide Squad cast anouncement is uh, ...interesting. IMO they must not have that much faith if they feel they need that much star power. Here's hoping it doesn't turn out a hot mess.

How you work that one out? Star power of 3 really.

Leto
Smith(not as big as before)
Hardy
 
Is anyone else here not that comfortable talking on the phone? Like my dad just made me call my cousin (who's a bud of mine), but I didn't really feel like talking. It just usually makes me feel uncomfortable, especially when I'm forced to.

Sorry for the DS-esque rant. :o

Huh? DJ... Your Marvel slip is showing. ;)


But seriously, let's remember that some of these characters may be spun off into other DCCU franchises. If say, Black Manta is in SUICIDE SQUAD, then he'll be in AQUAMAN. So you don't cast small, you cast big, say Chiwetal, cuz you know the heavy in a super hero movie is usually older and a bigger name. Compared to Momoa, Chiwetal is a bigger name. You cast an Oscar winner hot off his win like Keto and an up and comet like Robbie for Harley cuz you want to use them in a later Batman film. Plus when is having a murder's row of a cast a bad thing?

Finally... I like Hardy... But ask most people on the street and they don't have a clue. He is going to make for a great Flagg though.
 
I'll be honest with you. The cast sounds amazing, but aside from Harley Quinn and Joker, I have no idea who the rest are playing. Old Man, can you give me shorts descriptions?

Oh, and Margot Robbie on the big screen playing Harley Quinn got me like:

The cast's great. Cara is the one who'll have to convince me.

Hardy is playing Col. Rick Flagg jr. a super tough U.S. Air Force special operations officer. The original field commander of the Squad, he is a strong willed character that is as close to a white knight that the Squad has. Granted, he also is willing to make the tough calls as a military man.

Jai Courtney is playing Captain Boomerang, Digger Harkness. Boomer is a thief, inventor and hired thug who is a savant when it comes to combat with the boomerang. In the comics he started out as a spokesman for a company that made toy boomerangs, but turned to crime. Digger is a low life misogynist, racist worm... But he is a survivor. He looks out for himself and no one else.

Smith is Floyd Lawton, aka Deadshot, a master sniper and maybe the greatest assassin in the world after Deathstroke. Lawton has a complex family history that's sort of an inverse of Bruce Wayne. Wealthy background, but he saw his parents kill each other. He has a strange death wish, but he is also casually cool, level headed... And ruthless. He and Flagg go at it quite a bit.

Cara Delevigne is June Moon aka Enchantress. A powerful sorceress the personality is spit between mousy June and Enchantress. The more power she uses the less control of her body June has and the Enchantress personality takes over.

The others like Joker and Harley I am sure you already know.

Thank you, Kriptin.

Apparently people don't like it when you start trying to make "magic" available to everyone, with the concept that the ability to use magic is linked to specialized receptors, with the ability being activated when chemical messengers are released during the fight or flight response (under extreme conditions). So you don't have the old "Chose One" running the show...the power is there for everyone, regulated only by governing bodies that impose restrictions on magic's usage or restrict access to those scenarios that trigger the production of the chemical messengers.

Also, I do my best work listening to Hawkwind, apparently. Acid space rock FTW.
 
Vision ROCKS man I need me a high res of that image

I used to have an LP of Hawkwind. Haven't listened to them in YEARS
