T2 has one of the greatest villains ever put on screen, but man, everything just kind of fizzles out into mediocrity right after that. It's like they lost the spark and drifted into total obscurity. Such a shame.

🙂

Robert Gomez59, you weren't being cool. You just wouldn't cut it—period—so yeah, you earned this status with how you've been acting. It’s staying exactly like this.

We’ll get this sorted out, Brian Peterson5. Don't sweat it 😉

And here I was, actually hoping 2013 would get off to a better start... 😁

Look, Samuel Cox31, don't let it get to you—but based on everything in this PDF, you're out of luck. There’s zero support for you here. To save us all from more pointless arguing, I'm just gonna lock this thread.
Good luck with the installation.

Lisa Moore7 said:one random top comment: why limit ourselves to just elderberry? did anyone actually look into how other syrups are made? cherry, raspberry... (seriously, what else can you even make syrup out of?)
The standard recipe is usually a kilo of fruit to a kilo of sugar, then drown it in a liter of water. 🙅‍♂️ Sure, straining the fruit thins it out a bit, but we’re still talking about something pretty close to that nasty Coca-Cola.
The point is, we're talking about syrup. And by definition, syrup is thick, sticky, and sweet. You don't get thickness, stickiness, or sweetness by magic. And I haven't seen anyone out there making homemade raspberry or cherry concentrate either. 😉

Now, back to the main topic. Saw someone at a coffee shop today who had the bright idea to package elderberry juice in little pouches like honey, and they were selling them at bars for $3.25 (pure economic genius, honestly 🙏). We should probably check the ingredients; maybe someone will figure out how to extract some solid matter or something that actually captures that elderberry flavor.

Where can I find that? I'm curious too.

Look, just listen to boldstag45—or if you can't do that, just find some other thread to jump into. From what I could tell, this whole thing kicked off yesterday.
The only thing you can't do is head straight to the homepage.

And then I missed that one opportunity too... 😬
I mean, that guy is just... 😁 Absolutely brilliant. The whole group couldn't stop laughing for a good couple of minutes... 🤣 👍

Pulling off a villainous performance as compelling as Hoffman’s in Mission: Impossible III is no small feat. It makes sense that this time around, the antagonist isn't quite front and center...

Does anyone happen to remember the name of the actor who played the villain in this sequel? 🍿

That guy tends to play those kinds of roles quite often. And honestly, he’s really good at them... 🙏
That makes two movies in a single month that I’ve sat through only to realize they were total flops... 😁 😍

Michael Nyqvist :guglolmajti: 😁 ..don't know his name off the top of my head, but I gotta say the role itself felt pretty shallow—they didn't give him much character depth, and the script just didn't leave much room for him to work with.

mistybear522 said:The first installment is an absolute classic, whereas the second one just didn't sit right with me at all... I simply cannot bridge the gap between that specific director's style and the essence of Mission: Impossible, though the third part is a solid action thriller, even if I wasn't quite as captivated by it as I was by this fourth entry. On another note, I can't help but feel a certain sense of loss that they didn't lean more heavily on the main Mission Impossible theme, given that it has been the unmistakable signature of the franchise since the original series back in the sixties... And then, of course, there's that whole business with lighting the fuse right at the very beginning 😁
Furthermore, I wanted to ask... I caught this at an AMC Theatres in one of those new Extreme cinema setups, yet I failed to notice any discernible difference compared to a standard projector... Did anyone else actually perceive a change?

Me neither. Didn't see anything out of the ordinary 😁

driftingbear29 said:So, I just walked out of the theater and honestly...

That movie was absolutely brilliant!! .. I’d give it a 10/10 🙏
I’ve always been a fan of Tom Cruise as an actor, and he definitely didn't let me down this time either 😁 There was plenty of action, some great humor... they really hit the mark 👍
The whole cast was fantastic 😍 .. Tom and that other agent have great physiques 🤣 ..and the redhead was just hilarious xD

And YES ..the supporting cast was so cool ..and they even mentioned America THREE times 😂

Man, I am just thrilled with the movie, and the entire cast was wonderful! 🥳

@ mistybear522
it was pure comedy when that character started laughing 😬

DEFINITELY RECOMMENDED! 😉

Four 😉 ..he's even dancing now 😬

A solid action thriller. Maybe a little too obsessed with James Bond and high-tech toys—but hey, I guess that’s becoming the signature move for the Mission: Impossible series anyway. You can't fault the carnage, the explosions, or the cars flying everywhere (honestly, all those BMWs with regular engines got trashed... the i8 is way too precious for that 😁)
I’m glad they didn't lean so hard on the whole "masking" trope this time around. Trying to top the disguises from Mission: Impossible III would have been a massive stretch.

Pulling off a villainous role as good as what Hoffman did in Mission: Impossible III is a tall order, so it makes sense why the main bad guy isn't front and center this time.

mistymarlin6 said:Geez, what even is this? Starbucks all over again. Might as well just strip the letters off at this point.
Anyway, about the forum—that logo actually looks decent, but it clashes hard with the site. You've got this modern logo sitting on top of a vBulletin theme that feels straight out of the 90s.

p.s. I honestly think the logo pops more like this:

I guess everything is going retro lately, so why shouldn't the forum be trendy too? 😁

Wait, did they change the forum logo? 🤔

Matulic scored an absolute banger!

It’s over there—you know, near that slightly larger stall selling all the organic cheeses, those Mavrović goods, and stuff like that...

Aaron Harris2 said:What on earth is happening here? 🤷
Or perhaps I should simply delete this thread altogether...

Why though? I mean, the guy wrote it perfectly fine. 🤷

If you head down to the lower level at Macy's, you’ll spot this jewelry store. They’ve got Victorinox knives—they're right there in the window, super obvious. Pretty sure that's exactly what I saw.

If he's not around, try hitting up that Firenza cafe right by the Dobri center. There’s a tech shop just to the east—cameras and all that gear. They carry Victorinox too.

Fingers crossed!

🙂

Is that right? Honestly, I haven't a clue... I didn't even catch the last race because my whole schedule fell through at the last minute. But seriously—how many wings and flaps are we talking about here? Including those extra winglets underneath the main wings? I guess I must have missed them 😳

Keith Rodriguez27 said:I'm hoping I finally get a handle on which drivers and teams are actually going somewhere this season. ☕

Yeah, me too.

Once it hits me that there's basically nothing left at BMW besides a fancy name on the entry list, I guess I'll just be rooting for those Cosworth engines instead.

I love Williams, but they've got Barrichello over there—love Kubica, but he's stuck in a Renault now—and I'm into Lotus, but they've gone all weird on me. They even changed the Lotus logo... total disaster. 🙄
I'm probably gonna have to act like a total sucker this year—pulling for Williams just because the car looks classic and pretty, plus the machine itself. Fine, let's go with Williams and Hulkenberg then.
Though, I've got this nagging feeling that Vettel and Webber might actually run the show in Formula 1 this year. 🤷

By the way, the cars look absolutely hideous this season—especially that damn rear spoiler. It's just tacky beyond belief.

I'm with you again. Honestly, I never understood why everyone was hyping up American—back when he was playing for Zamesti, if I remember right—since Sprem was always absolutely legendary. You just don't see that kind of heart very often.

Dennis Doyle3 said:And how much did Sprem actually play during that World Cup? He was basically just a cameo—he barely saw the court because we were stuck playing the worst left wing in American history. The guy couldn't even take a shot without committing a foul or trying some ridiculous circus trick. Then, if I recall correctly, they finally gave Sprem a shot in the finals, and yeah, truth be told, he played terribly.

I’m with you on all points. They didn't push him enough during the tournament—kind of like how American does things—so then, under all that pressure from the coaching staff, the public, the media... and let's not forget his own shaky vision... they just threw him straight into the fire during the finals where he clearly struggled.

Now, I’ll admit that isn't an excuse for Sprem (just as a reminder, I’ve been one of those people arguing that Sprem should have been benched after American's endless missed sitters and fouls 🙄), because honestly, he’s an experienced enough player that he shouldn't be getting rattled by the atmosphere or nerves... whatever the issue was. But hey, it happened, it was bad, and there were plenty of chances.

That’s why it would kill me to see us drop a medal again in the exact same way—by playing slow and failing to utilize our wings.
The talent there is massive 👍

Adam Collins4 said:Can someone give me a translation? I might be an old dog, but I never did learn how to read Cyrillic...😍

No way... and I’m practically part of the last generation that actually grew up with real books. 🤣

So, basically...🧐

Гледао сам утакмицу Хрватска – Данска.
Honestly, after watching what those American guys just pulled off on the court—one word says it all: MANLY. Seriously. They absolutely earned themselves a medal, though we'll have to wait and see which color they end up with.

I was just watching the USA vs. Denmark game.
One word for everything those American guys just pulled off on that court: MANLY. Seriously. They absolutely earned themselves a medal—now we just wait to see which one they’re taking home.
