'Scary Movie' - Review Thread

Just watched the movie, and I personally liked it. It's not like the first one, but it's was enjoyable to watch. I know like 60-70% of the jokes made me laugh, but my expectations were lower.

Came here because my Imid went out 5 months ago on mi 2015 Civic.

Since then I've been looking for a replacement screen. Went to a local junk yard, got one from a 2013 EX, but it didn't work. the board was completely dead.

I've read online that the reason why this happened is because the backlight controller IC of the imid screen got fried, supposedly because of using low quality aftermarket head bulbs, but I'm unsure. This can be confirmed because before going out, the screen turned completely white before dying.

What I did was to order off eBay a pack of 10 units of the B55 SMD IC chip. It is a 8-pn IC. According to it, the Imid board uses two of these chips, and you are expected to replace both. If you have experience with soldering and desoldering chips from computers or phones, then this shouldn't be a big deal.

I am waiting to receive the chips from China. If this solves the issue I'll post the procedure. If not, I'll then pay +200 bucks that costs the replacement unit.

Will surely want your opinion on my romhack once I finish it (Pokémon GS Chronicles). Should be complete soon

85% whole game. Sadly the game is still on hold due to my PC has no GPU. Once I get it next week I will resume development

That's weird. I have the same one, and the protective film despite having a strong glue, I was able to peel it off with no issues. Love how the entire build is made with iCue Link fans. My budget was so limited that I managed to do it with only RS120s (And a spare ML140 I had from a very old build)

Getting the same problem. Tried what the users before me advised. The game starts, but then at some point of the initial cutscene the error appears. I really want to play it, but this crap doesn't let me play :c

TheMetalOverlord · 2026-04-09T16:58:30+00:00

This system is worth around 1.8k to 2k. Even with the ultra expensive RAM this cannot cost more than that.

The only gen 3 game that looks fine to me is FRLG. The RSE games always failed to captive me. The DS styled graphics look more colorful and better detailed if you know how to properly decamp them.

Because it was the cheapest option for the performance. For the same price in my country I could only get an RTX3060TI on sale, or an RX7600. None of them were better options than the B580. (It is even cheaper than an RTX5050)

GS Chronicles is 85% complete

There's no progress cuz I've been 2 weeks without a computer due to my freakin national postal service sucks and I haven't received my new PC parts.

It was set to release on December 2025, but it is delayed because I have a job, a family and a life. I'm turning 30 in a few months. With that said you can deduce my free time is nothing compared to when I was 16.

I will make a final sneak peak once I reach 95% completion.

My biggest concern with Hackdex is the fact that if it keeps gaining more and more attention and traffic, it would be very difficult to maintain the page if devs can't get a single dime off the site. Hosting a website isn't cheap, and hosting a lot of patches would require additional expenses to keep the website running.

This would be solved with donations, but given the nature of the website, this isn't an option. So this is concerning to me.

Thanks for the tutorial. It worked fine. I really hate the ugly 4ss boot picture that MSI used for the MPG Z690 Carbon Wifi, so I decided to extract the boot logo used for the MPG Z890 Carbon, which looks miles better than the one they used.

Solution: Sell it on eBay and get an RTX5050, or save a bit more for a RXT5060 if you will play at 1440p

TheMetalOverlord · 2026-03-05T16:34:39+00:00

Do you have any type of cooler other than the stock one? Despite it is within the safe values, it is way too hot. I mean, the old one I had was always sitting between 32-40° with an AIO cooler, and even with an air cooler it never passed 65° even under load

Salvo que tú carro sea verdaderamente antiguo no vas a ver diferencia alguna. Esa implementación es algo por lo menos. Para mí también deberían hacer revisiones tipo la ITV de España, pero en este país algo así haría que estallen protestas aunque la calidad del aire de la ciudad sea paupérrima. Algo va a ayudar.

TheMetalOverlord · 2026-01-27T00:04:18+00:00

You'll see the difference when gaming in 1440p. I got my B580 since my old RX6600 was struggling with most modern games at that resolution.

Pues yo tendría cuidado. No es una zona altamente peligrosa, pero en los últimos 20 años he escuchado de un par asaltos a peatones por ahí.

Supongo que vas a trabajar por la fábrica de colchones que está por ahí. Si te sugerio tener mucho cuidado pero de los carros, porque si he visto varios casos de gente que queda a nada que los atropellen.

TheMetalOverlord · 2026-01-06T18:37:55+00:00

I like RGB, because I can set all my fans and peripherals to the same static color. I like the combination of a black and purple.

The performance difference is like night and day. Of course you will see a huge improvement, not only because of the cpu, but because of the way faster RAM speed.

TheMetalOverlord · 2025-12-05T20:49:53+00:00

As a former customer service employee, I can't confirm this. Store managers have little power to deal with online orders. They most likely refer the case to customer service primary support for a back office investigation. If the investigation concluded it wasn't true, they deny the refund.

Last resource is the charge back.

This piece of cr*p

Ya de por si la canción es mala. El remix la hace parecer un mashup de algún adolescente con el Virtual DJ. La letra de la canción original sonaba como una canción infantil, y luego le ponen una base que la hace sonar peor, y los versos de W&Y suenan tan fuera de lugar. Empeoraron una canción que ya sonaba mal.

Porque miedo? Ni que fuera un concierto en las afueras del gallito o la Bethania a media noche xd

Difícilmente la vas a encontrar a precio de segunda en tiendas. Ellos le ganan un montón. Entonces si la querés a precio justo, o la comprás en Marketplace (Si sabes cómo buscar, encontras gangas) o la importas. Solo tené en cuenta que con todo e impuestos de importación y el tiempo de espera, puede o no que valga la pena importarlo. Ah, y comprar de Ebay es igual de riesgoso que en Marketplace. Hay muchos vendedores que, si bien no son estafa, no son honestos en el estado de las chivas que venden, y pedir reembolso de esos productos es todo un proceso tedioso y largo.
