Why has 3hrillers got that 3 in there?


I don't know, but I suspect the answer involves words like 'Marketing' and 'Synergy'(TM)

That makes an appearance in that 'Trekkies 2' documentary. Apparently some yank offered to buy it off him if he was willing to dismantle it and ship it with instructions on how it was assembled. On the documentary he asserted 'I thought that was a bit strange'. Completely oblivious to how ironic that sounded, coming from the guy who actually built the thing in the first place.

...as tweaking it might break something so you always have to leave enough time to fix whatever it is you broke fixing the previous thing ;).

That's what I hated about working in the field of 'IT solutions'.

The real issue here is that Nolan completely misses the point of Batman. Where's all the onomatopoeia flashing up in brightly coloured letters? This scene will fail unless I see  KER-RASSH spelled out. Any variant spelling will see this film flopping at the box office. And the wheels need to be fatter.

Nolan wants to shut down a major highway in Scotland, the A9, for an "epic" stunt involving a Lockheed C-130 Hercules plane

(i.e:

...)

and that:

"Batman is on board a plane that is hurtling to the ground. The script says he takes control of it and lands it on the road while it's on fire."

If you click on Home and scroll to the Forum Stats section and click on View the most recently updated topics on the forum.

It links to here:http://www.2000adonline.com/forum/index.php?action=recent

It shows the whole of the most recent posts instead of just the most recently active threads, but it's more or less the same

I believe the 6 of Clubs is Malus Darkblade. It could be Elric of Elric of Melniboné though, all Elves with comically large swords look the same to me. I'm horribly racist like that. F**kin' pointy eared B*****ds that they are...

@Paddykafka-

Carefully place a dog turd in a plastic container within a box and jiffy bag that up, post it to yourself and chuckle when it never arrives.

That's going a bit far. I would suggest a more calm and measured approach, such as writing a letter to yourself, a letter containing a random piece of text translated into Arabic Abjad, then sign it off in English with the phrase 'DEATH TO THE WEST'. Sprinkle some talcum powder/salt/flour/all 3 in the envelope, that will put the sh*ts up him. Bait your letter with an old USB key on which you've installed a virus.

I learned that last bit when I did a year working for a Large Online Retailer's Fraud Department. Needless to say I thoroughly I despise flim-flam's and scheisters

A Town Called Panic was on Film4 tonight. The Meg said some nice things about it, so I gave it a go. It was bloody bonkers, difficult to describe really. I think it inspired that cravendale milk advert. Really clever, eccentric,surreal animation
