Wow! The NEW (Hype!) TiVo Can Do So Much! - Part 2

[ComicChick]

Sounds better than Expendables 2 and 3.

i'd watch it, i can't wait to see who is in the sequel

summer glau, lena headey, eliza dushku, julie benz, kirsten kreuk...

for the record, i'm not being facetious. i just am too sidetracked to give it a lot of thought as i'd like to

 

[Spider-Aziz]

Now I wonder if BadrHari was just joking or if he's actually an idiot.

This makes me wish I quoted I SEE SPIDEY, DarthSkywalker, and Snow Queen when I had the chance.

 

[Spider-Aziz]

I just left my dvd player on and the menu was in loop for over 22 hours. Just wondering if it is possible that doing that can cause harm to the disc or dvd player ??

Thanks

"I made an experiment at my house, using properties of mine.
Please tell me the results."

 

[ThePhantasm]

The Burton films don't really count because that practically wasn't even Batman.

 

[Spider-Aziz]

Not really. Jason Todd being The Joker could change their relationship in more than just one way. It would depend on the mind behind the creative process. You might have one idea about it, that you wrongly think of as being the only possible one, but maybe the person writing the script has 2 or 3 more ideas that you haven't even thought of. Who knows?

As far as the level of interest of their relationship, that's highly debatable. Plenty of people could possibly enjoy something that you wouldn't. I don't mind change as long as it is well executed. Without change, without experimental artists, we wouldn't have some of the greatest movies and comic books of all time. Being an artist is also about being able to explore new grounds instead of being afraid of it, like most are nowadays.

That being said, i'm not saying that i would love Jason Todd to be Joker. I don't even think that would happen. I'm just not being square-minded about it. I'm accepting the fact that we don't know how good it could turn out to be until we actually see it. I've read enough comic books to know that sometimes the most unexpected ideas can turn out to be great.

Like the studio that dared to share this idea with the general audience?

God, that is the dumbest looking ****er I've seen in a film in a while. His beady little eyes are too close together and it looks like he is perpetually gritting his teeth.

It's no wonder they gave him the power of exploding people's heads. That was the only way to remotely salvage that thing. But even with that power he isn't Doom. He is this guy...

Is that supposed to be an updated, Zach Snyder version of Metallo?

 

[C. Lee]

Is that supposed to be an updated, Zach Snyder version of Metallo?

That was Doctor Doom in the recent Fantastic Four movie.

 

[The Shape]

Is that supposed to be an updated, Zach Snyder version of Metallo?

If only.

 

[Spider-Aziz]

Superman III has Metallo.

 

[Whiskey Tango]

What's this from?

 

[Sawyer]

You people can shade Snyder on plenty of things, but he would NEVER make Metallo look that piss poor.

 

[Sawyer]

When Majik uses his powers for good...

I wouldn't mind May being a nurse again, but since she already was that in TASM films maybe she could be something different this time.

Maybe she could be Peter's first model to hone his photographic skills, until she finally fixes him up with MJ.

Please let your wet dream of supermodel Aunt May just die.

Some people don't know how to loosen up

He's had this wet dream since before Sally Field was cast in ASM....

Astronomy thread:

I wonder how long it will be before a person sees a sunset on Pluto from the surface.

You mean a person standing on Pluto and watching the sun set? Probably more than a century.

Yeah. And ironically when it happens, it probably won't even be a news story.

About as long as a human will see a sunset on Venus....it will never happen.

You're ambitious. We can conquer all the continents, split the atom, wipe out all other life, walk on the moon, create artificial life and intelligence, but getting to a glorified snowball will never happen?

Dare to dream, Venom's Dead.

Sorry dude, it will never happen...temperatures will never allow it....and if man ever get the technology to conquer such temperatures, the last thing on Man's mind would be to set foot on Pluto....so keep dreaming pal.

I just woke up, and my brain is still a bit sluggish so I cant tell if your post is a joke or serious.

You are aware that we have space suits that protect astronauts from extreme temperatures , right? With a space suit we are more than capable of surviving on the surface of pluto.

As for Venus, that is a whole other can of worms. The hellish heat isnt the only issue. The surface pressure of Venus is 90 times that of earth's atmospheric pressure at sea level.

Dude, there is no space suit capable of protection from those temperatures of Pluto. The best suit can protect a person from temperatures as low as maybe -260F. Temperatures at Pluto hovers just around -380F. So are you joking or just speculating?

Im talking about what is possible. Space suit technology is based on necessity and budget. Low earth orbit doesnt require space suits that can withstand those temps that is why they arent designed for deep space temps. Its not because its an impossibility. There is nothing stopping us from designing space suits that can withstand those temps.

Heat transfer is much slower in vaccum. The cold isnt the issue. Insulation and temperature maintenace isnt some insurmountable obstacle. Worst case scenario we could only do short EVA's. The problem is pressurization and we have that figued out. Another problem is radiation. And NASA and independent companies are already working on ways of protecting manned missions beyond the protection of our magnetosphere.

I find it funny that you think current space suits are the absoldute limit. Thats like believing this thing...

...is the absolute limit of diving technology. Between the resistance of the human body, our ingenuity, our intelligence, and our unwillingness to throw our hands in the air and quit, its very likely that space suits will go far beyond the current ones we have.

You are full of assumptions....I guess by that logic, some day, man will invent a suit that allow us to walk the surface of star. Your assumption is just absurd.

You'd think that being the father of an alien life form would let him be more open to things.

Walking on Pluto would be easy. It's just getting there that's hard.

Yep, thats the only true hurdle. The amount of food, water, and fuel we'd need to carry would make it cost prohibitive. So we need a whole new system for a trip like that. We'd need to find a way of turning resources out there into fuel so we dont have to carry fuel for a return journey from earth. Same with water.

They are considering a similar system for a manned mars trip. Making the fuel for the return journey on Mars rather than having to carry it from earth.

There is also the risk involved. If something went wrong on the way to pluto theyd be doomed. Mounting a rescue mission that far out would be hard to do.

 

[SuperFerret]

Mounting a rescue mission to the Moon would be nearly impossible, let alone Pluto. I do agree that we'll probably not bother with most of the other planets in the solar system after Mars.

Well the gas giants aren't really suitable for manned missions. They have no solid surface and Jupiter's and Saturn's electromagnetic radiation would be deadly to a human. Standing on Io you would receive a deadly dose of radiation in about an hour. So even Jupiter and Saturn's moon's are out of the question if we never develop some amazing shielding. It's a damn shame too. Seeing Jupiter up close in person would be staggering.

 

[The Shape]

Well I know this might look SUSPECT but I wanted to say what's up to everyone again. I not really a new user as I posted here a few years ago, but l for the life of me can't remember what my old user name was. I swear to you I was never banned so I am not a trouble maker returning. I know I left because I got a little frustrated with some fellow posters and their childish games ( I am 33 now). But once Carl Huntress got banned in a very BS way mind you. I decided to take a break. But looking around things don't seem to have changed much. But all that is in the past and I wanted to chat up all things comics and nerd stuff with folks. And honestly, the other sites for comic book info is pretty bad or the boards are DEAD.

Spider Aziz I think I remember you. Weren't you the guy that was petitioning for venom to be in the sony spidey reboot movies? But anyway, I just wanted to let it be know up front before some tries to say I am one of the bad banned posters or something.

Come to think of it I probably shouldn't have mentioned Carl Huntress. She was cool with me, but I think most of you HATED her.

I was around in the early days. This site was just for the Rami Spidey movies back then. The community wasn't that big or anything but it was cool. Granted we still had trolls and rude posters back then too. It is amazing how far Super Hero films have come since then.

If your IP address didn't tell me you were ShadowBoxer (and last logged in a week ago), the fact that you're still trying to spread BS about past users being "unjustly" banned would've been a dead giveaway.

All jokes aside, this was really sad. I wonder what has to be going on in someone's head to do something like this. Someone could write a great psychology essay about people like this, if one hasn't been written already.

 

[Parker Wayne]

Shadowboxer liked Charl Huntress? That explains a lot.

 

[Parker Wayne]

Also, didn't Charl Huntress get banned for making a lot of homophobic comments in PMs toward Sawyer?

Yeah, sounds completely unjustified.

 

[Whiskey Tango]

What's this from?

Anyone? Anyone? I just want to know who the actress is. She looks familiar but I can't place her.

****ing owned. I can't wait for the inevitable permaban.

Thats got to be one of the worst attempts at sneaking back in that Ive ever seen on the Hype. Which thread did that happen in?
