GPU Buying Guide - (Read first post)

Quick question for you all. I wasn't quite sure where to post this, but this seems like the most logical spot for it. Which of these two graphics cards is actually better:
1. ATI HD 3500
2. ATI X800 GTO

The Punisher Trilogy
in Movies ·
Possible Spoilers
Back when we were kids, the first Pusher movie was one of the absolute heavyweights for us. It reached cult status within my circle of friends, much like Haina and a few other classics. I finally sat down to rewatch it last year after about a decade, and honestly? It still hits just as hard. The next two installments might be a hair weaker for me, but they’re still excellent films. I really dig how each movie wraps up by leaving the audience to draw their own conclusions about what actually happened to the protagonist. Plus, I love that while each film follows its own distinct plot and focuses on different characters, there are these subtle threads tying them together. Like how in Pusher 2, Tony is a bit slow on the uptake and struggling to think clearly because Frank beat him senseless with a baseball bat in the first film—which comes up when Milo asks Tony where Frank is, over in Sweden. Or when Milo runs into Kurt in the third one. There are so many little details like that. Even Milo, who is such a terrible guy in the original Pusher, somehow becomes someone you actually feel for in Pusher 3. I absolutely adore The Punisher Trilogy.

It’s a shame, really. So many people get caught up in pure parkour, while hardly anyone touches actual freerunning.

Respect to you; that was actually impressive. It's a far cry from that link above where those guys act like they're accomplishing something just by jumping over three steps. Honestly, did anyone else here *not* pull stupid stunts like that when they were 11 or 12? You don't wait until you're 25 to film some dramatic documentary about how you climbed a wall.

I caught a movie yesterday. It clocked in at about 80 minutes including the credits, but honestly, they could have easily cut it down to 45 without losing anything. The whole thing was just bloated with filler.
And I really didn't get what was going on with that Black actor—was he actually close with those gay guys or is he just an idiot?

13 Tzameti (2010) - Thoughts on the remake?
in Movies ·
You’re absolutely right. I didn't catch the trailer beforehand. Honestly, when I was watching it, I was completely lost—had no clue what was even happening. The movie doesn't really lay things out clearly from the jump. I'm actually glad I avoided the trailer; it saved me from being spoiled.

I think you might have overshot it by linking about 13 different Tzamets in your opening post.

Hmm, is it even worth the watch?
I've never really been a huge fan of his.
Oh, absolutely worth it.

The Masque of the Red Death
Growing up, this was easily one of the most terrifying horror flicks I ever laid eyes on. And it stars Vincent Price, of course.
I think this hits the mark for what you're looking for.

Still got a little while until midnight, haha...
The guy who actually knows what's going on is probably waiting until the very last second. Honestly, if it were me, I'd do the exact same thing. 😬

I'm sorry about the PM situation. Honestly, it would be best if everything was handled via PM.

It's definitely Lethal Weapon 4. I counted the outfit he's wearing.
