You should go play some Clix. Sounds like you deserve as much fun as you can possibly cram into your weekend after the week you've had.

I'm going to see how I feel come the morning, but putting a few teams together tonight can't hurt either way. It's possible I may be playing some games yet tonight.

When I went to the venue a couple weeks ago I ended up with the Red Guardian LE - it was an open choice and that's the way I went - while if I have the same opportunity I'll be trying to decide between Madame Hydra and Gabe Jones.

Wow. Glee managed to destroy even a classic like that!

Poor (fast) pacing along with vocal "stylings" that are so often used these days as a combination of ADD and people most likely trying to cover their inability to hold a note.

Apparently I've slapped until it hurt... something. No more from me until I've recharged!

I enjoyed the last Potter...aside from a few things altered/left out;(really can't put EVERYTHING in a 2hr movie) it was something that was ended just as well as it was begun. Though I regret going to a local theatre for the viewing....the screen was darker than usual so I got a bit lost in some of the shadowy parts.....R-Truth's appearance gave me the free time to comment....now that's he's gone...back to my regular programming.

Thank you ISP for a job poorly done.

I've been too tired to get online much lately, too much work, but a new place!! Sounds like lots of movie plans this weekend. I eventually want to see Cowboys and Aliens. Hopefully it will just be a hoot.

I asked a friend how the film handled the many deaths from the book

and she said that it was done off screen and you didn't even find out about it until Harry walks into the great hall and the after math is revealed. I don't remember it happening that way in the books, and as that death struck me hardest of all, I was a bit dismayed to find out about that.

I love the books, but think I will wait to watch the final two films back to back from the comfort of my sofa. I haven't seen Part One yet and at this point that sounds like the most sensible option.

I'm with you. I think it's cool that you can use him as whatever point level you choose, but other then that, I'm not going crazy for him. Of course, that will be most of the set for me unless something I really want pops up (like Silver Banshee). I DO want Darkseid though.

I would put money on Silver Banshee. A Superman enemy with ties to the recently Clixed Secret Six. Sounds like a no brainer to me.

Did anyone see Munchoboy all but confirm a higher powered LE version of Magog? Interesting....

As I recall that is how many of the deaths were handled in the book. Offscreen and inventoried every time Harry took a moment to count the bodies.

If you haven't seen part one yet, might as well wait and see them both on DVD within a short period. I liked the second part alright, but the first was by far the better movie of the two. The filmmaking was impressive and it managed to avoid becoming slow despite that part of the book slowing to a crawl in places.

You very well might be right. I just remember that particular death hitting me so hard that I can't imagine it happened off page. But maybe I am remembering incorrectly and the writing was just that good. Gods, I loved that last book.

Wow... The Glee version of Lean on Me is downright awful. Did they really need to oversing it like that?

...then again, it is Glee...

Glee seems to be a love it or hate it kind of show. I've never seen it but I've never seen any middle ground opinions either.

I could be wrong or thinking of a different specific case. I read that book pretty recently and I'm still foggy on exactly what happens in it. There's just so much going on. It was far better rereading it than I remembered it being the first time. I don't have any doubt that it's the best of the series from a sheer writing perspective (epilogue aside), and probably others besides that.
