Adam Lewis said:Transformers is basically perfect for high schoolers, though honestly, the older crowd should probably just stay away...

The plot is incredibly predictable...

It’s just some geeky kid in school who's totally crushing on this girl—who, of course, happens to be dating the captain of the football team—and predictably, he uses his giant robot car to win her over.🤮

You missed the mark on the Boldati part; you're talking about Transformers, but whether it's Jumper or Transformers, it's essentially the same thing 🤮

silverpanther13 said:A desperate attempt at cinema. Completely unwatchable and totally lacks credibility.

I second that. I couldn't have put it better myself.

Out of all the movies mentioned here, I’d have to say The Day After Tomorrow is probably the best. 🙈

rowdybadger65 said:Is there any way to do more than just log out? I mean, can I actually leave "forever"? Like, is it possible to completely wipe my profile from existence...

No.
Your options are simple: just walk away, or start over with a new account once your ban expires.

neonfox16 said:And that link Patrick Smith44 posted up there? That isn't exactly the movie Titanic; it’s more like some thirty-minute short comedy.

I honestly thought people caught on. Just look at the premise:

Plot Summary
A young woman obsessed with "Titanic" (identifying perhaps a little too closely with the film's heroine) finally lives out her fantasy when she meets a carefree, broke young guy working as a janitor at a Titanic memorabilia exhibit. However, reality rarely follows the script of a Hollywood blockbuster...

😁

Yep

Alex Parker8 said:Hey everyone,
I'm looking for some reliable download links for the series The Wire. I'm trying to put together a complete digital collection starting from S01E01 all the way through S06E21—basically every episode from every season.
I've stumbled upon a few links online, but most of them seem to be dead ends or broken. Thanks in advance for any help you can provide.
Best regards,

a fellow member,

David Perez5 said:Hey everyone!
It’s my first time posting here as a registered user, so please bear with me if I mess anything up.
I'm looking for some advice or opinions on how to properly book the various fees paid to the SEC when setting up funds—things like prospectus approvals, bylaws, selecting a depository bank, and so on.

Don't sweat it. You just joined recently, so it's not nearly as awkward as when someone with over a thousand posts pulls a rookie move. 😉

Is Secchi even still with us?

If not, when did he pass away?!

copperharbor47 said:...Dick Tracy?

I asked myself the exact same thing about a decade ago. He just isn't a mainstream icon, but honestly, I think it’s better if he stays on the comic page. You can't really translate faces like that into the real world.

PS As far as I know, there's an animated version out there; I caught a brief clip where Superman was dubbed in Italian and shown in color.

Gary Chavez39 said:I finally sat down and finished this movie a few days ago—I actually started it ages ago but never quite got around to the end—and I was honestly blown away. What I’m looking for now is some direction; if anyone here has seen similar stuff, could you please suggest something comparable? I’d really appreciate it.

I watched it too, and I have to agree—there's something absolutely mesmerizing about the world of Japanese animation. Over here, they titled it 🙄Little Chihiro's Adventure
. That scene with the "housekeeper" 😱 😁

If you're looking for recommendations, I'll just pass along what was suggested to me:
Princess Mononoke
Paprika
Howl's Moving Castle

Anthony Bailey said:Kevin Spacey—so basically, it’s a boring movie.
☕

WOW 🙂

I’m genuinely curious about this movie. It’s not like I’m particularly fired up about poker or anything, but the premise itself caught my eye—especially since it's based on a true story. If enough people chime in with positive reviews, I might just give it a watch. 🙂

electriccyclist15 said:Man, this movie was just all over the place. The special effects are actually pretty cool, though it’s hard to even catch them because the editing is so frantic—that rapid-fire cutting has been driving me crazy in Hollywood movies lately. But the plot and the characters? Good grief. Everything feels like it was just sketched out in bullet points. The concept itself is genuinely interesting, it's just a massive missed opportunity... still, I've seen much worse

I think I'll pass on this one. There isn't much positive buzz out there, especially given the point made in the quote above. I nearly lost my mind watching Transformers; everything is filmed so close to the action that you can't actually follow what's happening. It feels like someone is just throwing buckets of paint at the screen with constant, jarring cuts. 🙄

Half an hour later, a second cyclist leaves New York heading toward Boston at 9.3 miles mph. In how many hours will they meet, and how far from New York will they be when they do?

Please help out, my younger cousin needs this 😕🙏 As soon as possible

Help! Technical support regarding forum issues

This isn't a PDF for this thread. 😉
By the way, tell your cousin this is just basic physics. He should probably check his high school textbooks or old class notes; I can't quite recall which grade covers this specific stuff.

copperheron32 said:Do you know where I can download a program like that... and what’s it called?

Handbrake

By the way, this thread probably doesn't belong here. This is the section for "Technical Support for the Forum," or rather, the Help! board. 😉

Dennis Sullivan592 said:I'm wondering if it's feasible to get some new garage doors installed for roughly $3,000-$1167. I don't need any motors or fancy automation, and I honestly don't care whether they're roll-up style or traditional swing doors.
Any advice would be appreciated.

I see you just joined us. To be honest, I don't have the answer to that, and I'd gladly help if I did. However, this isn't the right venue for those kinds of questions—it’s not like that Help! forum where you can ask about specific services. You might have noticed that under the link for that section, it clearly states
"Technical support for matters related to the site." 😉

I won’t even click on a thread about a movie I’m actually interested in if there’s a hint of a spoiler 😁. If I did, I’d just be met with comments like, "That movie was incredible..." (which makes me think, okay, maybe I should check it out), or "It was so gripping and meaningful..." (so now I’m thinking, great, I love those kinds of stories—better call my friends and set up a theater trip)... but then comes the kicker: "...but I can't believe the protagonist dies after being betrayed by his best friend!" 😲 (At that point, I’m ready to throw my phone against the wall. It’s infuriating. That one tiny fragment of a sentence effectively kills any desire to watch the film for at least two years—or until I manage to forget it exists. Please, just write SPOILER ALERT!!! before you drop a reveal or change the font color. You’re killing the magic for everyone else who hasn't seen 😉 yet

frozenorca12 said:My apologies... but what exactly does it mean when someone tells you—or asks you—if you "are"? Clone.?
What’s the actual subtext behind "> Are you a duplicate?"
A duplicate of what, exactly?

So that basically means you're acting like a clone from Star Wars. Honestly, those people tend to be pretty arrogant, so you might want to take it as an insult. 🤷

It was just too much to pass up. I couldn't help myself. 😉
It’s a simple concept, really. You log in under your main account and play by the rules, posting like a normal person. But then, you spin up a secondary handle to do all the things your primary identity wouldn't touch—harassing people, flooding the boards with spam, or just having a one-sided conversation with yourself. It’s like that guy Ris, who became infamous back in the day for running hundreds of clones just to manipulate the discourse. At the end of the day, a clone is just a duplicate; a shadow version of yourself that you manufacture to bypass the social contract. 😉

quiethound9 said:I’m trying to post a larger image on the forum than what comes from Imgur. My usual routine goes like this: 1. Head over to Imgur, 2. Hit browse and pick the file from my PC, 3. Select a size (I even tried the largest option), 4. Click upload, 5. Copy the "BBCode for forums" code, 6. Paste it here, but the image still ends up tiny.
PS: The actual photo on my computer is huge, yet it gets shrunk down anyway.
PPS: ANY ADVICE ON WHAT TO DO?

Just use Taylor Swift for the forum. Loading massive files just drags down the site and kills bandwidth for anyone on a slower connection. Besides, you won't see the full picture properly, and it goes against the community guidelines.😉
