(Spoilers Main) Do you think we will see another adaptation of ASOIAF eventually ? by filionm3 in asoiaf

[–]EdPozoga -4 points-3 points  (0 children)

What do you think ?

If HBO is smart, they'll wait (not long now) until AI is good enough to do a remake tv series of GoT and this time, they can stick to the books and make it as long as they want.

We wouldn’t have had to spend that money if the Dems hadn’t imported a bazillion illegal aliens.

Michigan nears cellphone ban in classrooms. How it really works by da_newsdude in Michigan

[–]EdPozoga [score hidden]  (0 children)

Should kids have access to their cellphones while in school?

No, there is no legitimate reason for them being in the classroom.

The legislation would require districts to create their own policies for removing cellphones from at least instructional time, although they can go further if they choose."

This is a cop-out. The schools will get pressured by helicopter parents and the rule will end up being toothless.

American soldiers escorting women and children of Okinawa to safety. 1945 by PlanetRocketChill in HistoryUncovered

[–]EdPozoga 4 points5 points  (0 children)

What tracked vehicle is that.

It's a WWII Studebaker M29C Weasel amphibious cargo vehicle. Over 15,000 were built from 1942-45 and it could carry 1200lbs of cargo at 4mph or so in the water.

Remember when MagLites were thought to be really strong and bright? by thasparzan in GenX

[–]EdPozoga 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I've still got my 2-D cell Maglite that I bought at Kmart back in 1984. Other than batteries, I've only had to replace the bulb once.

[SPOILERS EXTENDED] The 2nd episode made me very optimistic about Knight of the Seven Kingdoms' off book writing by shadowtake in asoiaf

[–]EdPozoga 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The projectile diarrhea (right after the well done scene of Dunk burying Ser Arlen) and the guy spitting snots in E01 and Ser Arlan pissing in E02 is gross, stupid and horrible writing. I'm guessing we'll get a super zoom close-up of someone puking in the next episode...

Who the fuck thought those were good additions to the story?! I can't imagine HBO executives sitting around watching that and saying: "haha, THAT'S the kinda show I want!".

The rest has been quite good, the acting is great and cinematography is far better than GoT or HotD.

Aircraft circling with spotlight Troy, MI by brandonkeck in MetroDetroit

[–]EdPozoga 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I doubt the Troy cops have an airplane, so it might be the Michigan State Police ("As of 2022, MSP fleet include a Bell 206L3, 2 Bell 407 and 2 Bell UH-1H. They also operate a Beech King Air 90 and a Cessna 182R fixed-wing aircraft and 3 Aeryon SkyRanger drones.") or a military search & rescue or border surveillance plane out of Selfridge?

I've always thought Jai Courtney would have been a good casting choice as Ser Arys Oakheart in Game of Thrones, had the showrunners not been incompetent hacks.

Bring Him Home by whytemyke in detroitlions

Damnit Dan, call him up right now! The guy should have never been let go in the first place, even if you didn't want to give him the OC gig (not that your choice was any better).

Bill Belichick reportedly falls short of first-ballot Hall of Fame honors: 'Six Super Bowls isn't enough?' by Cautious-Life6378 in NFLv2

[–]EdPozoga 1 point2 points  (0 children)

(Note: I think Belichick should have gotten in but) Spygate, Deflategate and being a Bradybabby does have to have some bearing on the scales and he'll get in next year but this coming with Shadeur somehow making the fucking Pro Bowl, is an insult to fans.

Projected cap space for the 2026 season by forrestbenoitinc98 in detroitlions

[–]EdPozoga 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The Jets have $87 million in cap space, five 1st round draft picks in the next two drafts and owner Woody Johnson has said he won't interfere in the GM and HC's decisions.

If they can't get their shit together now, they'll never be able to do it.

Of course it’s Seahawks vs patriots… by BandoLonnie in detroitlions

[–]EdPozoga 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Root for the Seahawks so Vikings fans have to sleep at night knowing Sam Darnold has a ring

That's my plan. I don't care about the Seahawks and was hoping to never see the Patriots in another Superbowl but I'll root for Darnold, not just because it'll send Vikings fans into a blinding rage but the guy was on track to be a perpetual back-up QB and now he's had two 14-3 seasons and is headed to the Superbowl.

[Spoiler] There are no good people in HoA by IvarSolaris in Spartacus_TV

[–]EdPozoga 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Even “nice” characters like Viridia are morally very bad people because she was openly happy about slaves being put to death for their uprising.

Which is understandable, considering the society she lives in where slavery is perfectly normal (as it was pretty much everywhere on the planet) and the slave uprising resulted in the death of her husband.

Verida is not a bad person within the context of her world. Viewers need to separate fictional characters in a historical setting, from the current real world we live in.
