Re: Books you're reading now
Finished reading Cormac McCarthy's The Sunset Limited. It's a "novel in dramatic form" (i.e. pure dialogue and some sparse stage directions), where one character is trying to talk the other out of killing himself. The gist is that the suicidal thoughts are argued on intellectual rather tha...

Re: The Force Awakens.
Something my husband pointed out that I didn't pay attention to much at the time was how after Han's death, Leia hugs Rey, a complete stranger (sure, probably a family member, and someone who shares the Force as well, but still), after completely ignoring Chewie, who was Han's best ...

The stormtrooper Rey mind tricks in to releasing her and dropping his blaster was Daniel Craig.
And the junkyard guy with the food rations was Simon Pegg.

Uh-oh.
It's not a bad movie, but as a fan... I dunno. Maybe I shouldn't feel this protective about fictional characters.

Re: Gaming General Chat Thread
So... is the Tomb Raider multiplayer dead? Just finished single player and wanted to check multi. Servers work fine but there's just nobody on them. It isn't completely dead, but matchmaking is a nightmarish mess. Basically you can only be matched with people who have the exact same DLC packs as yo...

Re: The Dream Thread
I dreamt I assassinated Ezio from AC. As I cradled him in his dying moments, somebody came looking for him and knocked on the door. I yelled "Ezio can't make it right now!". The second knock woke me up. It was actually my dad knocking on my bedroom door. I haven't had one of these segueway...

Re: Favorite and Least Favorite Boss Fights
I like the Mr. Freeze fight in Arkham City, and to a lesser degree Bane from Arkham Origins. I like a fight where the opponent modifies their behavior based on what you're using against them, so you instead modify yours.

Re: The Dream Thread
Jethro Tull plays at my former school. Then The Cars. They start with Let's Go, play a second song, then walk off stage in a temper because there're so few people. My dad shows up late because he's been flirting with some girls, and is disappointed he missed the show.
