When I first heard that this was going to be the title, I snickered and all I could think was.... "No really guys, it's really the last one this time, we promise." lmfao It looks like it has potential, I'm gonna reserve judgement though.

How would you rank the Spider-Man movies?
Sandstone replied to Zenigundam's topic in Movies & Television
Fuck Toby McGuire and everything he stands for. Those movies were fucking awful and should burn in hell. Amazing Spiderman was better and more authentic. Spiderman Homecoming is the best iteration of that character hands down. -
Why is 'Almost Famous' such a highly regarded film?
Sandstone replied to pail's topic in Movies & Television
I've never had the displeasure of seeing that film, I've heard people talk about it alot just didn't appeal to me. -
Finally saw IT (not really a review, just blabbering)
Sandstone replied to André Toulon's topic in Movies & Television
He said they laughed not that they were having a hoedown. Come off it, I laugh or talk to friends sometimes during a movie, that's usually a good sign it's actually entertaining. When I went to see IT in theatres there was a lot of laughter and comments going around from both white and black people. -

It was way better than the original, not to mention more accurate to the actual book and had darker parts in it. There were a few corny parts, however, that is perhaps the nature of a supernatural clown demon. Also good horror movies don't rely on jump scares, they use them effectively like any other tool in the kit of horror directors. Some will disagree with me, but I'm a long time horror fan, and the best horror films I've ever seen which genuinely made me scared, disturbed, or otherwise unsettled had few or no jump scares. -
This is exactly the scenario I was thinking about and talking about as well though you stated it better I think. You think a Power of Attorney and/or a restraining order would help her, or do you think there is something more immediate she could do to extricate those bumms from her elderly aunt's house? I mean that if she got a restraining order at the same time or before getting an eviction through POA they would have to leave immediately wouldn't they or risk being arrested? I'm also concerned specifically about the will thing, if he's been living with her for several years things like common law marriage might come into the picture and complicate things, even more, depending on the State... whole situation just sounds really bad and dangerous, especially if those people retaliate and get violent or vandalize shit.

scoobdog[/member] If what she described is accurate, do you think that could be considered domestic abuse of some type? That could potentially speed up the process of removal or at least get the police involved faster. Though I still think a POA and combination of the restraining order should be investigated.

Toonami's Influence On Netflix's 2018 Anime Craze
Sandstone replied to The1gairon's topic in Toonami & [adult swim]
Lol well I knew that, they just lagged behind so many other cable networks for so wrong in terms of content ratings it is still hard for me to imagine. lol -
katt_goddess[/member] This is a good point, would probably need to get a restraining order or something as well to see an immediate change.

Yeah, I didn't know about SAO, I still don't think they'd ever air it or Higurashi but maybe I'm wrong. Either way the list I gave were just suggestions not to cause a debate jeez. -

I simply thought Now and Then in particular would not be signed on a network like AS because it contains rape themes and depictions. -

I wasn't aware of the SyFy airings, that is an entirely different network though, it just seemed to me the content of those shows would be too graphic for network executives to sign off on airing them. I also wasn't aware they aired Hellsing Ultimate either, but I have not watched Toonami until recently. If that is the case then only Elfen Lied and Higurashi would probably not be aired to do sexual and/or extreme violence involving females. -
I am glad to be taking a break from my programming today. My head is literally hazy, I think I've been stressing myself out trying to get product output to impress and make sure this project actually could make money if it is eventually marketed. So last night I was literally lying in bed with racing thoughts, it's a bad symptom of Bipolar Disorder where your brain won't shut off and you have a large variety of ideas running through your thoughts but unable to express them accurately. It's extremely distracting. Perhaps I will have my workout this evening and sleep okay for the first time this week.

In 9th grade, she was aggressive and had the hots for me apparently. I was also oblivious to this fact, and she took the first opportunity when we happened to be in an area of the school hallway where no one could see to literally shove her tongue down my throat... her tongue was huge btw. Had I actually been straight I think I would have probably enjoyed it quite thoroughly as she was considered attractive and fairly popular in our age group.... This is not the only time I've had unwanted or unsolicited attention by a hot a girl. It's like they know they can't has somehow.

Season 3 of MHA has already been confirmed in production for 2018. Which is not surprising since it is currently one of the most popular Manga and Anime in Japan the last couple of years. -

Is it because Hulu has the rights to stream it? -

These are just rumors I've seen on a few twitter accounts that aren't official sources. I misinterpreted what they were saying as an official announcement, so there is no official confirmation about this as of yet. And yes it would be awesome... I dunno I just feel they are being run by people who don't have a passion for Anime, and it shows... if you can't be bothered to hire people who actually know what makes a good anime and what anime fans tend to like then you're not going to be doing anything but getting lucky on occasion... If they were really smart, they would move their time slot earlier two hours and air their less violent or dark content earlier, it would get better views that way. The Early block could be DB Kai, DB Super, HxH, and Shippuden if they really wanted to keep it if you put those on at 9 pm and 10 pm respectively you'd be seeing a lot higher ratings than you do now. Save weird stuff with mature content like Jojo for 11 pm or later. It will still get good ratings because it has good content and they could avoid the restrictions of primetime that way. They could also still air their variety like DB or Gundam vs more violent or mature stuff like Berserk (assuming they'd ever pick it up) or Overlord in a later slot. I have a small list of anime I would love for them to consider: Quality stuff they could invest in that few or no one has (Evening Slots): --------------------------------------------------------------------------------- MHA - this is a given I think for anyone that knows about it. Made in Abyss Ancient Magus Bride Tiger and Bunny Mob Psycho 100 One Punch Man season 2 (when it ever gets made) Yuri on Ice (this would almost deffinitely never happen for multiple reasons) Beelzebub Katekyo Hitman Reborn Ushio and Tora Clannad (if they wanted slice of life) Shaman King Magi Quality stuff they could invest that few or no one has (Late Night): --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Overlord Berserk (might be considered too graphic) Steins Gate Claymore Bungou Stray Dogs Monster (might be considered too graphic) Elfen Lied (probably would never happen cause it is very graphic) Gantz (probably would never happen cause it is very graphic) Drifters Blade of the Immortal Arslan Senki Higurashi no Naku Koro ni (probably too graphic) Darker than Black Now and then Here and There (almost definitely too graphic or upsetting) They probably are not even aware of a quarter of the above shows, which is indicative of the underlying problem. -

OwlChemist81[/member] You are actually right, I am sorry for the confusion. This is just a rumor actually, I misinterpreted the source that I got this from. I seriously hope they do not pick up Fairy Tale for the aforementioned reason. MHA would be a really excellent pick up for them, it is already dubbed and isn't licensed by Netflix yet. I think it is currently on Hulu right now so I don't know if that would make a big difference. Still not that many people have seen it yet, as it is brand new. Shows like Fairy Tale and Shippuden have been broadcast multiple times for several years now. -

No Funi licenses directly from the Japanese animation studios that own the rights to the shows. I'm not sure who or how Netflix licenses from, I'm assuming they are doing it through Funi and/or another distributor that does subbing and dubbing unless they are doing it themselves. MHA is reportedly picked up by Toonami, which if that is true that is a very good pick. Mainly because it hasn't aired anywhere but Funimation yet. Netflix doesn't have it in their catalog, and I don't see it in the list of animes they are claiming to produce for next year. It's pretty much the perfect choice, as opposed to a show like Shippuden or Fairy Tale which has already been streamed both subbed and dubbed by multiple outlets already.
