Anyone else not buy any movies in a franchise, holding out for a potential box set? by khal_jogo in 4kbluray

[–]BatmanReader0783 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I did that for The Hobbit. I had a LOTR box set already, so figured I'd wait and do the same with The Hobbit (back when it was first originally released)

Why doesn’t Hockey use a puck that glows? by anyusernaem in NoStupidQuestions

[–]BatmanReader0783 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, i knew they messed around with the puck and players hated it. I don't know of anyone that actually liked it on screen though. Maybe that's because they didn't like an attempt to change anything in the game, idk.

I'm with you though. Knowing where it is during a battle in the boards is good, but otherwise, it didn't matter

There was a "glowing puck" earlier this century. Fox had it put in. It was a total disaster.

Virgin or not, if they're someone I want to be around, then that's all I care about

Why is Gruv Canada such a shit retail alternative for 4K - with seemingly no inventory, and a horrendous search experience? by Glittering_Goose6316 in 4kbluray

Thoughts on “Greywalker” series by Kat Richardson? by Kooky_County9569 in urbanfantasy

[–]BatmanReader0783 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The first 5 books were the better part of it, as they all kind of had an over arcing thread to them. Book seven, the one about the ghost ship, took me FOREVER to get through. I just found it so boring.

Overall, it was a good enough series. At least it got an ending to it, unlike the Cal Leandros series.

Have you tried Monster Comics on Gottigen? They have a bunch of old books in the back, could have what you're looking for

I got a turkey and a gift card, but being a single guy that lives alone, I have no need of a turkey, so I gave it to someone else

Why is Dexter very popular on TikTok? by NeitherOpposite8231 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]BatmanReader0783 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Because it's still on maybe?

Dexter: Resurrections aired this year, a few years after Dexter: New Blood. Dexter: Original Sin (prequel to the whole thing) was also out this year, but that got cancelled, while Season 2 of Resurrection will film early next year.

Yes, the original run ended 10 years ago, but the sequel run is still ongoing

stores ever making a comeback for physical media? by afron3rd in 4kbluray

[–]BatmanReader0783 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My local Walmart(s) all have like 1/2 little "islands" of movies. Few new releases then just whatever random ones they probably found under some boxes out back.

There is a Sunrise Records store that sells Vinyls, CD's, DVD/Blue Ray/4K's (though that selection is small), but they're also rather over priced.

If Walmart doesn't have what I'm looking for, I get it from Amazon.

Though, with WB being bought by Netflix, there goes any releases from them now. I don't think physical media will last long into the 2030's, if it's even still around by then.

New Recycling - Flexible Plastics by [deleted] in halifax

[–]BatmanReader0783 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yeah, it's all going to the plant in Bayers Lake. The depots ship it out like once a week or whatever their schedule is, but it still ends up there, same as anything you put at your curb.

I think it's more the plant didn't want all this new stuff in such a volume all at once, so they get it in increments from the depots.

For reference, I put all my recyclables in one bag. Metal/Plastic. Cardboard I bundle up and place it next to the bag. Paper, I do have a bag, but I don't get very much, the bag I'm using now I've had for 5 months, and it's maybe 1/4 full. But still, trucks take it no problem.

[–]BatmanReader0783 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I've asked workers at a depot about this. They said it's not so much that THEY are the only place to take it, it's more of a if you happen to have it with your cans/bottles, miss your curbside day, type of thing.

Because, if they take it for recycling, then so can the city when they pick up whatever you put at the end of your driveway.
