Yeah, I guess I'll probably do that.


I'm on a mini Pink Panther cartoon marathon right now. I wonder if a live action Pink Panther film would be any good, if done right that is?

Duke, why don't you just speak to a cool Best Buy employee who will hold a copy for you? Even if it's not store policy, you might find a guy who will hold it for a few hours.
 
I'll be going to BestBuy tomorrow & will definitely ask about that.

Let me know what they say. If they allow in-store pre-order and in-store pick up I'll definitely be using that option at some point in the future.

I'm glad you asked about this in here, cause I forgot it was coming out this week and didn't know best buy had an exclusive steel book. Just placed my order. I'd go pick it up in store, but I won't be near a best buy until next Sunday. The steel books would likely be gone at that point. Can't wait to watch this again in the comfort of my own home and removed from all the controversy that plagued it during its theatrical release. I still enjoyed it in theaters, but the controversy dampened the whole experience a bit.

I'm only buying it from them because it's an exclusive of theirs.

Same here. Amazon is my go to source, but I really like the steel book that best buy is offering. This will be my first steel book.

LOL. I wonder if that will get you hooked on steelbooks the way it did with me? I first got Captain Phillips & then it was Ender's Game, then I was hooked.

There are a lot of steelbooks I want, but unfortunately it's all movies I already own and I don't usually double dip for packaging. And it's rare for me to buy movies when they first come put so I miss a lot of exclusives due to that.

I found an unboxing for the Noah steelbook. It's in Spanish. Gotta say I'm a bit irritated that the discs are stacked like that. Us that normal practice with steelbooks?

I feel SO much better this morning. I got home around 2:30 yesterday and passed the cuss out :hehe: just what I needed.
 
Very interesting Horroscope today...Sagittarius I am and this is what I got:

Intensity is the name of the game at the moment. You're in the mood for it, and more than willing to participate. That could be great fun, if you're with the right person -- but if you happen to be involved with someone who's just a little too intense, or if you've ever worried about their being more than just dangerous in a sexy way -- well, then, leave it alone. You can find that same intensity without worrying about your safety.

Underlined describes someone to a T and also illustrates certain suspicions in my mind about their fervor for safety, which is to say the least pretty nonexistent. And I have been telling myself I need to leave it alone too because there's always someone else with more of a conscious mind for not doing crazy, stupid, dangerous stuff to hang out with.

Yeesh, I woke up this morning, my left arm in complete pain. It was hurting so much I couldn't move it with being in agony. I can't explain why other than having pressure on the rotator cuff of my shoulder being out of whack while I was sleeping. Right now my bicep feels like I've been putting severe strain on it, like over working it too much. In fact my left side has always been giving me issues. Getting older really stinks. I feel so beat up and tired all the time. I guess it's all the years of working those crappy, physically punishing jobs that strained my muscles and my body from over straining myself catching up to me. Truthfully I can say I've never known a life of gentleness and pampering, just physical punishment after physical punishment because that's what I have to do.
 
Dangit!! I don't know whether to pre-order the Noah steelbook (exclusive from BestBuy) or just wait till Tuesday when it comes out. The trouble is that steelbooks usually run out rather quickly & I'll be at work, but can go at around 12ish or 1:00pm....don't know if I want to risk it though. :csad::cmad:

Never seen it, too many people mention they weren't thrill with it
 
Hmmm...I find I'm more apt to cuss whenever I feel angry or threatened. Anyone else like this too?
 
Anita is a pioneer of the Viral Marketing Preservation Project (aka Wiki :cwink:) she should be applauded for her efforts! :woot::applaud:hrt:


By the way, that BvS teaser is :awesome::mrk:
 
Here is a very detailed description of the Avengers 2 SDCC Trailer. Considering it was a trailer it doesn't show anything a normal trailer wouldn't, but I tagged it anyways.

We see the Avengers sitting around trying to untangle the "whosoever is worthy" thing, regarding who gets to hold Thor's hammer. And they all think it's a trick, or a circus sideshow. "If I lift it, do I get to rule Asgard?" Tony asks. And Thor says yes. Tony says he will be fair but firm, and maybe work out the "wench clause." Tony can't lift it — even after he puts on an Iron Man glove and gets Rhodey to help him. Soon everybody is trying to lift it — including Bruce Banner, who gets kinda upset — and only Steve Rogers even comes close. Black Widow doesn't even want to try lifting it, because "That's not a question I need answering." Tony guess it's keyed to Thor's finger prints, or some other biometric, but Thor says the answer is simpler: "You're all not worthy." Then there's a ringing sound and they're all deafened, and Ultron strides into the room, with a crude Avengers logo painted on his slightly misshapen chest. "How could you be worthy? You're all killers," Ultron says. "You want to protect the world, but you don't want to it to change. There's only one path to peace: your extinction." Then a **** ton of robots burst through the wall and attack all of the Avengers, plus Maria Hill.

Then we hear Ultron's voiceover saying he had a vision of the whole world screaming for mercy, and everybody tangled in it. And we see glimpses of some city in what looks like Africa being reduced to rubble by an attack. There's a closeup of Loki's staff, and everybody looking freaked out on the Quinjet — most of all Bruce Banner, who is holding himself and shaking with a terrified look on his face. People are running everywhere, and the debris is flying like crazy. Ultron gives a menacing look, as he surveys all the destruction. Then there are some hero moments: Captain America enters a place shooting some guns. Stuff is blowing up. Banner staggers to his knees in a snowy forest, looking sickly. Thor uses his hammer to smash a tank. Black Widow is in a medical bay, reaching for some surgical tools. We glimpse Nick Fury looking the way he did at the end of Winter Soldier. And Scarlet Witch is on a bus, approaching some people at the back of the bus with magic in one hand. Tony Stark is looking forlorn and guilty. "It's the end, the end of a path I started us on," he tells Black Widow, who says everything ends. Scarlet witch sinks to her knees shouting. And there are more shots of Scarlet Witch using her powers, just quick glimpses of her projecting magical energy.

At this point, the trailer strts playing the clasic song "I've Got No Strings." Tony, in Hulbuster armor, confronts Hulk on a city street, and there are several shots of them brawling and Tony getting the **** beat out of him. Quicksilver runs through a crowded room that seems to be standing still. Captain America is fighting someone in what looks like a knock-down brawl. And because this is Joss Whedon, there's a glimpse of girls doing ballet. Then we're back to Black Widow shooting shotguns, and more of the Hulk/Hulkbuster brawl. Thor grabs Tony Stark's throat and lifts him off the ground. Captain America is riding a motorcycle and then running. Cars are tumbling in mid air. Black Widow touches her hand to the Hulk's massive green hand, like she's calming him down. We glimpse a confrontation between Black Widow and Scarlet Witch. And then Ultron finishes the song saying, "There are no strings on me," clenching a fist as he celebrates that he's no longer a puppet. And we go a shot of Captain America's shield — shattered to fragments. We pull back, and all of the Avengers are lying prone, apparently dead, in the rubble. Tony is leaning over them, and he looks totlaly horrified and ashamed.

This movie sounds...

This is the Ultron's first body that attacks Stark Tower. Hulk smashes him pretty good.:D

Marv, in all honesty I liked The Avengers and I'll watch AoU, but I'm nowhere NEAR looking as forward to this as I am to BvS. I see this as a placeholder for BvS.
