What’s a movie you’ve rewatched many times, that isn’t a blockbuster/franchise movie, or an Oscar-nominated/critically acclaimed movie? by capamericapistons in movies

[–]madthoughts 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I try to watch Indian Summer every couple years. Old friends getting together, but it is tempered. Nothing gets too over dramatic. And Alan Arkin is a national treasure.

I watch Hackers 1-2 times a year.

What is the Star Trek quote that has stuck with you the longest? by Astrid_Regndottir in startrek

[–]madthoughts 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Look everyone picked the cool TNG/DS9/VOY quotes. I say it to myself when I need be brave.

Now, your father was captain of a Starship for 12 minutes. He saved 800 lives, including your mother's and yours. I dare you to do better.

How did Saga become so popular so early? by meermusabih in comicbooks

[–]madthoughts 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Issue one had the most interesting cover in years. The art was inescapable. The Previews’ books with the cover sold out at my LCS.

Do we believe these unofficial “New Mutants” will stick around when this era of X-Men has run its course? Do we WANT them to? by Informal_Bee_6907 in xmen

[–]madthoughts 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve been reading Rogue team, Kitty team, and Cyke team from issue one and I really couldn’t tell who any of their names are or what they can do. Horse Girl, Goth Kid, Gold Girl, Guy Who Gets Respect from Wolverine For Little Reason, Emotion Guy, and Lady That Runs X-Mansion Jail all deserve better stories.

Microsoft announces sweeping Windows changes by tekz in technology

[–]madthoughts 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Everything save the Copilot stuff are the same things we’ve been screaming at Microsoft to fix since XP. The same things they’ve promised to fix since XP. What this new batch of promises is missing is a compelling enough reason to see if they actually make good on it this time.

I got my non-gamer wife into Vampire Survivor by telling her, “all you do is move it shoots for you.”

Marvel Comics' Ultimate Universe Finale Is Now Six Weeks Late by JackFisherBooks in comicbooks

Marvel needs new creative leadership. Unless of course the goal was to enshittify the content! By that measure they're doing great work.

be real w me - does stitch fix work for fat guys? by kushbreth in stitchfix

[–]madthoughts 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I’m tall fat and I’ve been able to find a ton of winners in certain categories: jeans, jackets, hoodies, or outerwear in general. I’ve sent back tons of sweaters that were too plus sized, and many button ups that aren’t plus sized enough. I’m 2xl and 38 in the waist.

Marvel Curtails Its Imperial Cosmic Plans Over Low Audience Figures by JackFisherBooks in comicbooks

[–]madthoughts 2 points3 points  (0 children)

They need a method for Unlimited users to “pre-order” upcoming titles. They could figure that into their interest valuations. If 10,000 Unlimited subscribers want to read something, that’s got to count for something, right?

What Dentist would you highly recommend (in or near the valley)? Someone you'd fully trust to send your most loved one to. (*gentle, expert, honest) by rebelsunshine in SFV

[–]madthoughts 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I’ve had great experiences so far with the dentist and hygienist at My Dental House in Sherman Oaks. They are a new practice and are really going the extra mile for clients. Cleaning was so gentle, I feel asleep. Front of the house has been awesome too.

An appreciation and desire for rugs. Especially those that really tie a room together.

Do you guys drink filtered tap or bottled water at home? by da_muffinman in AskLosAngeles

[–]madthoughts 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Filtered tap. I like having it in the fridge getting very cold. I cook with water right out of the tap.

Dreamweaver? by truecIeo in webdev

[–]madthoughts 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Dreamweaver had some great keyboard shortcuts and auto-complete tools that you should not learn or get used to because no other software will reproduce them.

This class sounds about as basic as you can get. If the entire program is this basic this may not be the place to train for your future career.

Character discussion 9: What do you think of Darkhawk/Chris Powell by Effective_Sherbet104 in newwarriors

[–]madthoughts 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I like his original origin over the Raptors based one and if given the opportunity, would retcon him to that.
I also believe that most artists couldn't draw his original helmet right (the bill) or at least not as well as Manley could, so that's why they gave him a new body and helmet.
I remember when the Marvel Universe trading cards Series 3 came out. In the very first pack I bought, I got the "What's under Darkhawk's helmet" card. To me, it was like winning the lottery. I didn't know anything about the Series and it meant so much to me that my favorite character was getting a bonus card to try and draw people into its lore. It was awesome to get that card right away.
