Q: Were there different endings to the movie "Clue", based on the odd clips in the old preview?

MikeyI'm embarrassed to know the movie "Clue," inside and out so much that this might be an esoteric question.. I know nowadays movie previews may sometimes have a clip or a change in what you'll see in the theater to avoid giving away some of the 'best jokes', etc. In the movie, "Clue" (1986), ther...

 
3:43 AM
@DrRDizzle hmmmmm, interesting. I believe @Catija watched this one and commented that she liked it. I'm pretty sure that it was her and she liked it.....I could be wrong.

Q: Movie about women's asylum where the protagonist escapes

user845279The movie was made in 80s or early 90s. I'm not sure about country of origin but i think the language was English. It's about a women's asylum or more like a Magdalene asylum where the women are held against their will. I remember a lot of the women wore red. The protagonist escapes finally after...

Q: What is the hangman game in the phone booth window in Fargo

sanpacoIn the latest episode of Fargo S02E08 "Loplop" There is a hangman game in the window of the phone booth that Ed Blumquist uses to call the Gerhardt family. What is the answer to this puzzle and is there any significance to the story?

 
7:34 AM
@MovieReel @walt you memory is quite good. I also remeber it in pieces but you made me dig it.
 
@AnkitSharma Are you still at work?
 
Yeah, its only 1:00 P.M. HERE
7 more hours of work atleast
 
ugh. I am working overnight shift on a Tuesday night. I have to make up my hours for being gone for 5 days :(
 
ohhh
Here is piece for now. Sr VP not arrived yet, thanks to fog :D
 
Party Time!!! ;)
 
7:45 AM
He is moody and gave us party when he is happy.
We are not directly under him but we have to follow his request or should present valid excuse for not doing it.
 
I would go crazy if I had the jobs that most of you guys have.
 
Its not that bad or good either.
On the side note watched American Horror story season 1 early 3 episodes . Male nudity is bit forced but overall i liked the show.
 
They have male nudity on that show? It's not a cable show is it?
 
Not from front but back
Main male character walk nude in the house, i don't think its normal even in America
 
Oh, Gotcha. They don't even show male frontal nudity on Cinemax (aka skinemax)
@AnkitSharma Sure it is, that is how all male's enter my house ;)
 
8:02 AM
I don't mind nudity but that restrict me when and where i can watch it
 
I'm a nurse, nudity doesn't bother me at all. I see it every day.
 
I don't :D
Anyways forceful nudity bothers me sometime
 
Well, not everyone looks like people on tv/movies nude ;)
What is forceful nudity?
 
Which doesn't suits to the story
Like walking nude at home
 
Oh, gotcha.
 
8:11 AM
Sex in middle of unresolved fight
etc etc
 
Ha! Well, in America that is how most fights are resolved ;)
 
8:24 AM
@steelerfan Well it's a really good film, I saw it with 4 other people and well all agreed that it was pretty great, which almost never happens.
 
@DrRDizzle That's the one with Tom Hanks isn't it?
 
@steelerfan It is.
 
@DrRDizzle Can we expect a review any time soon?
 
@steelerfan ASAP. Not tonight, but probably tomorrow at some point, UK time.
 
@DrRDizzle Hooray!!
 
8:31 AM
@steelerfan As a Brit, I can't help but read that as sarcasm.
 
@DrRDizzle Gheez, what is it with you Brits and sarcasm? Not at all, I actually enjoy your reviews :)
 
@steelerfan We are built around a culture of sarcasm and flippancy. There hasn't been an earnest word spoken in Great Britain for over 3 centuries now.
 
@DrRDizzle I actually didn't even know that until I started chatting in here about you guys and your sarcasm. So, when all of you say that you love the Royal family are you being sarcastic?
 
@steelerfan The Royal Family is a divisive issue at best. As best as I can tell, women love them and men don't.
 
@DrRDizzle Gotcha. Good to know.
 
8:37 AM
@steelerfan That might be something of a generalization, but I reckon 80% of the time that will be accurate.
 
@DrRDizzle Well, I am not sure what purpose they serve.
 
@steelerfan Tourism and tradition mostly. They have no real power.
Well, officially they have all the power, but if the Queen or King ever actually tried to do anything they'd be ignored.
 
@DrRDizzle Yeah, that is what I figured. You guys are stuck with Charles and Camilla on the throne next......ugh.
 
@steelerfan That's a weird thought. There hasn't been a time in my life where it hasn't been "God Save the Queen".
 
@DrRDizzle Yeah, I think she is just staying on the throne to beat Queen Victoria at the longest reigning monarch.
 
8:43 AM
@steelerfan Potentially lol. I guess there isn't much else for her to do - it's not like she can go do anything else with her life at this stage.
 
@DrRDizzle I agree. I kinda want Harry to take the throne, declare himself Henry IX and go buck wild and start beheading people and marrying different women ;)
 
@steelerfan It would certainly liven things up a little.
 
@DrRDizzle I know. That family needs some livening up. William and Kate are boring. Charles and Camilla are just.....ugh.
 
9:21 AM
@steelerfan I think what we really need is a French Revolution.
 
@DrRDizzle Hey, now you're talking!!
 
9:49 AM
Hey, wasn't @NapoleonWilson just in here? Pfft! He doesn't even say hi to us! The nerve! ;)
 
@DrRDizzle hehehe. What, does he think he has a life to live or something? ;)
God, that was annoying. Had to remove.
 
@steelerfan What was it?
 
@DrRDizzle It was that annoying girl from "Full House" Actually, they were all pretty annoying.
 
@steelerfan I have no idea what that is.
 
10:04 AM
@DrRDizzle Yeah, that's a good thing. It was an awful American sitcom from the 90's.
 
@steelerfan O-o
 
@AnkitSharma Hey, we don't have Royalty here.....one can only wish for that kind of royal family ;)
 
That royal family already done quite damage here
so we want no royalties
 
It doesn't matter if they are royal or not, anyone with political power pretty much f***s everything up over here.
 
@AnkitSharma Really?
 
10:27 AM
The British Raj (rāj, meaning "rule" in Hindi) was the rule of the British Empire in the Indian subcontinent between 1858 and 1947. The term can also refer to the period of dominion. The region under British control—commonly called India—included areas directly administered by Britain as well as the princely states ruled by individual rulers under the paramountcy of the British Crown. The region is now less commonly also called British India or the Indian Empire (the names "Empire of India" and "Federation of India" were also in use). The Empire of India was officially created by Prime Minister...
Anyways, better to leave that topic
 
10:39 AM
@AnkitSharma I don't know enough to comment anyway.
 
@AnkitSharma Me neither. The only thing I know of your country is that you produce beautiful women.
 
10:51 AM
@steelerfan And incredible food., and bat-shit insane films.
 
@steelerfan India was ruled by Britishers. Then they hated by mass. Their rules were obviously for there own favor and created mass distress. Freedom fight occurred for many years, after word war 2 we got freedom in 1947.
@DrRDizzle India make good film but major big budget are shitty ones
Regional ones are better
 
@AnkitSharma There is an entire subreddit on reddit dedicated to gifs of hilarious, awesome, physics defying action scenes in Bollywood action films called Bollywood Realism. I love it.
 
@DrRDizzle I don't think I have ever seen a film from India.
Uh-oh.....I feel an argument coming on....... ;)
 
@steelerfan I've never seen a full one, but I've seen enough clips, gifs and excerpts to know that they are mental.
 
@DrRDizzle Does "Slumdog Millionaire" count?
 
11:01 AM
@steelerfan Isn't that a Danny Boyle film?
 
@DrRDizzle Er, I have no idea.
 
@steelerfan It is, starring a British actor. It's a British film through and through, far as I can see.
 
@DrRDizzle Really? I just remember the film at the Oscars and everyone was going on and on about how it was an Indian film. Maybe they were just going on about the Bollywood thing. I can't remember that far back!! I can only remember superbowls from long ago, not Oscar ceremonies ;)
 
@steelerfan Wikipedia describes it as a British drama film, and it was directed, written and produced by Brits, starring a Brit. It looks to be somewhat Bollywood influences, but other than that...
 
@DrRDizzle Well, consider the source. I am the source and I am completely brain-fried at the moment.
 
11:08 AM
@steelerfan Wait, people actually watch the Oscars?
 
@DrRDizzle I usually do, but I never retain much of the information.
 
@steelerfan I just read who won what the day after so I can complain that X was robbed of Y on Twitter.
 
@DrRDizzle Actors are India or from Indian origin
 
@DrRDizzle Yeah, usually nobody wins that I want to win.
 
@AnkitSharma The lead was born in Britain. That makes him British.
 
11:11 AM
I never liked slumdog and their portrayal of India
 
@AnkitSharma I haven't seen it, so I can't comment.
 
@DrRDizzle Indian music director, Story about India, actors connected to India , only UK director. All make a global misinterpretation of it being Indian film.
Which it was not for sure.
But Slumdog was not an Indian term and is like a slang (semi-abuse) used by non Indians.
A Wednesday! is a 2008 Indian thriller drama film written and directed by Neeraj Pandey. It stars Naseeruddin Shah and Anupam Kher in the lead roles. Set between 2 pm to 6 pm on a Wednesday, the film depicts an about-to-retire police commissioner (Anupam Kher) narrating a sequence of events that unfolded on a particular Wednesday. They do not exist in any written record, only in his mind and in those of several individuals who were involved, willingly and unwillingly, and how those events affected the lives of all the concerned people. It was the inspiration for Tamil movie Unnaipol Oruvan and...
^Watch this one, if you can someday
One of my top Fav
It was remade in Hollywood too
A Common Man is a 2013 thriller film starring Oscar Award winner Ben Kingsley and Ben Cross and directed by Sri Lankan film maker Chandran Rutnam. The film is an official remake of the Indian thriller A Wednesday!, but Rutnam reworked the screenplay of this highly suspenseful thriller. A Common Man is an award winning movie that won Best Picture, Best Director and Best Actor awards at the Madrid International Film Festival and bronze medal in the Feature Films category at the New York Festivals’ International Television and Film Awards, three of the 119 Gold World Medals, 145 Silver, 104 Bronze...
 
@AnkitSharma I only saw the film once, and I don't remember anything about it.
 
Ok, its bit over stereotyped to me.
I think Catija has watched many Indian films.
 
11:46 AM
Where is Catija? Was she around this weekend?
 
I'm now getting screamed at by someone who can't seem to understand that Warner Bros were disappointed with the Man of Steel box office. It's hard to explain that they expected a film based on the most popular and well recognised superhero in the world with a budget about as big as that of Avengers Assemble coming straight after the conclusion of the commercially and critically successful The Dark Knight trilogy to make more than it did in 140 characters.
 
I have 15 characters that will help: Get Off Twitter.

@MikeEdenfield But I like Twitter. It allows me to argue with twits.
 
I suspect the people arguing with you think the same thing.
 
@MikeEdenfield I suspect that the people arguing with me don't think anything at all actually.
 
11:52 AM
@DrRDizzle Are you one of those people that posts on twitter to everyone what you are eating? ;)
 
@steelerfan Oh god no. I use it for self promotion, and to post incendiary opinions on films/TV shows/the odd video game I play.
 
@DrRDizzle Gotcha. I guess I am not part of the twitter generation.
 
@steelerfan You can't possibly be that much older than me.
 
@DrRDizzle Pretty sure that I am. I am older than Napoleon and Ankit.
 
@steelerfan I don't know how old either of them are.
 
12:02 PM
I am A LOT older than Mango and N_Soong.
@DrRDizzle Er, late twenties?? If I remember correctly.
 
@steelerfan Oh, you might be older than I thought then. Still, people of all ages are active on Twitter.
 
@DrRDizzle Ha! Told you. I received my Bachelor's Degree in Nursing in 2002. I attended college right out of High School..... you can do the math.
 
@steelerfan American High School ends when you are 18, right?
And College lasts god knows how long.
 
@DrRDizzle Yep.
 
By my math, you are in your late 60's.
 
12:09 PM
@DrRDizzle OMG!! How did you guess? ;)
Wad and I are one month apart in age. We graduated High School the same year.
<wallowing in a sea of depression>
 
@steelerfan Well you see, Steelerfan is an anagram of Flare Teens, which means you were a teenager when flares were fashionable in the late 60's / early 70s. So if you were in your late teens in 1970, 45 years later puts you in your mid to late 60's.
@steelerfan If it makes you feel any better, I'll probably outlive you.
 
@DrRDizzle Oh, I see. Well, I was not around in the 60's. I definitely was not a teenager in 1970. Although, I was born too late, I wish that I was around in the 70's and I wish I was old enough to appreciate the 80's.
My sister is 2 years older than me and she is 5 months pregnant. So, I still got that going for me.......which is nice. ;)
 
@steelerfan Sometimes I go onto Facebook and see how many people I knew from High School have got and/or are having kids, and it freaks me out.
 
@steelerfan pfft. you're not old at all.
 
@DrRDizzle Kids freak me out, period. That is why I don't have any.
 
12:17 PM
if I'd finished college, by 2002 I'dve had a masters
 
@MikeEdenfield awwww, thanks man!
 
@steelerfan Children I don't mind so much once they have developed a method of communication, but babies are like aliens. How do you know what they are thinking??!?!?
 
@MikeEdenfield Well, I neglected to tell Dr D that a Bachelor's in Nursing is basically a 6 year degree :)
 
and I'm in the middle of the pack age-wise at my job
I'm one of only 2 devs who hasn't hit 40 yet
 
So, you and Wad and I are basically the same age.
 
12:19 PM
probably. but I appreciate the 80s so I must be older :)
 
I never realised I was talking to a bunch of old fogeys. Would you all prefer it if I typed in capital letters to make reading easier?
 
@DrRDizzle Pfft! With age comes wisdom my friend ;)
 
@steelerfan I've never heard a wise person say that.
 
@DrRDizzle I am just about to send you to your room young man!! ;)
@DrRDizzle @MikeEdenfield I just about fainted when N_Soong revealed that he was only 18! Holy crap!
Well, since Mango and I are engaged, pretty sure that makes me a cougar..... Dear God!!! Ugh. :(
 
you're engaged to a fruit?
is that legal?
stupid progressive liberal agenda destroying our country
 
12:27 PM
@MikeEdenfield Yes. I proposed marriage to Mango last week because of his Spaceballs knowledge as well as his ever-amusing puns.
 
bad puns and husky images. you need to raise your standard a bit.
at least require biting satire
 
Ha! I completely agree :)

Q: Why didn't Eve keep shooting at the train scene?

SarpSTAThe scene where 007 and Patrice are fighting on the top of a train that's heading into a tunnel, in Istanbul. Not wanting to risk losing the trace of them, M orders Eve to take the bloody shot. Eve misses and inadvertently shoots Bond, allowing Patrice to escape. But right after she shot Bond, t...

 
@MikeEdenfield Do you have any children? Or, do you mind me asking that?
 
12:45 PM
i do not, and i do not.
 
Wad is the only person that I know our age that has never been married AND has never had children. Usually it is one or the other.
 
my coworker is 6 years older than me and engaged for the first time
i think she'll be married by the end of next year?
but it is definitely unusual
 
That is too weird. Maybe it is where I live. It just seemed that people got married young around me. I didn't get married until I was 28 and my husband was 6 years older than me and it was his first marriage and he didn't have any children and we were in the minority around here.
It just seemed to me that the girls that I went to High School with were so eager to get married and have kids right away. Of course, they are all divorced by now.....
 
nodnod
all my friends are married with kids, too
 
Yep, mine too.
Contrary to @DrRDizzle, we are still young enough to have children :)
 
12:53 PM
@steelerfan The oldest person to ever give birth was 66, so you've got a few months at least.
 
@DrRDizzle That's it! You're grounded young man! ;)
 
I can't imagine @DrRDizzle having kids.
 
I can imagine his future wife being a closeted lover of Man of Steel.
MANGO!!!
 
Candied Man...Go!

12:57 PM
@DrRDizzle Watch out, my fiancee is here to protect me ;)
 
I'll get the internet on you @DrRDizzle
 
it's the candied mang.
 
@CandiedMango Is this the first time that you have been in here?
 
Yahuh!
 
I see @DrRDizzle cowered out of here when he saw the all-powerful Mango enter the room :)
 
1:00 PM
I'm like a superhero, a slightly malevolent one.
 
he went off to dislike something elsewhere.
"There's a lot of garbage in this world, it ain't gonna hate itself."
 
Ha! Pretty sure he is on twitter ;)
 
As a critic it's his job to hate everything more than anyone else.
 
he's very good at his job.
 
Napoleon and Ankit aren't around to shoot his arguments down ;)
It is rather entertaining to watch.
I am awaiting our hourly update on how long he has been in his twitter war ;)
 
1:04 PM
Heh heh, I just end up making puns that have no meaning
He left! I have defended my fiancee!
 
Pfft. What a wuss! He just left.
@CandiedMango Thanks man!
You are such a bad-ass.
 
total bamf.
 
hehehe. You can go about your other important business now :)
 
continues watching tv
 
Ha!
 
1:07 PM
very apt room for tv watching
 
HE'S BACK!!!!!
 
@steelerfan I don't intend on ever getting married, but my girlfriend of nearly 8 years hates the stupid thing too.
 
@MikeEdenfield begrudgingly stars
 
@MikeEdenfield OMG!! LOL!! I just realized that you were giving a play by play of Dr D in the delivery room with his wife. ROFL!!!
@DrRDizzle Dude, 8 years?? Time to make the commitment.
 
1:10 PM
@steelerfan Nope, marriage isn't something I ever intend on doing. Big waste of time, money and energy, all of which could be spent ---hating things---- elsewhere.
 
I can become an American after marrying @steelerfan
 
@CandiedMango That's a shame.
 
@DrRDizzle No way! It only cost me $150 to get married. I flew to Vegas.
 
More importantly she can become British.
 
I would rather become British.
 
1:11 PM
Yay \o/
Then we can annoy @DrRDizzle up close.
 
Watch out @DrRDizzle I am going to be a fellow citizen ;)
@DrRDizzle So, you have been with the same girl for 8 years? When did you guys start dating? You know, since you are so young..... ;)
 
@steelerfan First year of college. I was 16.
 
@steelerfan she and Napoleon seems quite busy this days
 
Hey you aren't that much older than me :D
 
@CandiedMango I'm 23, I think.
 
1:14 PM
@AnkitSharma Yeah, no kidding. Napoleon was in here earlier and blew us off. Pfft! ;)
@AnkitSharma I understand that he is busy with work. I get it.
@DrRDizzle Well, good for you guys for being together that long.
@AnkitSharma Whew! 1-0 Ankit ;)
 
@steelerfan 3 years of that was long distance to be fair, she went to University in a different part of the country whereas I studied locally.
 
@steelerfan He finally found the one thing he didn't hate, it was her.
 
@steelerfan Yeah, i have seen him many time here this days but he check and disappear
 
@AnkitSharma Oh, I see. Kind of like the father looking in on the kids ;)
 
@AnkitSharma Jesus Christ man, that's unsuitable even for The Screening Room.
@CandiedMango I don't think anyone here will be surprised by this, but we actually hated each other at first.
 
1:17 PM
@CandiedMango Hooray! You go Dr D!!
@DrRDizzle Really? How did you finally win her over?
 
@DrRDizzle I am 26 and i guess neoplean is of same age +/- 1 or 2 year
 
Dr Dizzle what's the worst that can happen? "Everything"
 
@AnkitSharma Napoleon is too smart to still be in his twenties.
 
And i am too lazy and saving my mind for future :D
 
@steelerfan It was more of a mutual understanding to avoid each other (we shared friends), followed by an underage drunken encounter at a house party. Truly a romance for the ages.
 
1:19 PM
@DrRDizzle ahhhhh, the ol' drunken encounter at a party...... I hear ya.
 
Ah house parties, the cornerstone of young British love.
 
@DrRDizzle OMG
 
@CandiedMango The only good things to come out of college were the people I met and the parties.
 
@AnkitSharma Yeah, do you see what I have been dealing with in here while you and Napoleon are off living your lives? ;)
 
@steelerfan Just to be clear, we didn't bang or anything. We just started talking in earnest, got a little... friendly, and got to know each other from there.
 
1:21 PM
@DrRDizzle Same pinch but i happy about it
@steelerfan @DrRDizzle is bad in maths, ignore him.
 
@DrRDizzle Well, since you put it so eloquently as to not "bang" you are a true gentlemen.
 
He hates math!
 
@steelerfan I love kids till they start talking.........
@CandiedMango people hate the things which they don't know or understand
 
Man @DrRDizzle must not understand anything.
 
@AnkitSharma Agreed. I only like my sister's kids. Well, I have a special bond with my nephew, my niece is a handful. I do not want to be legally responsible for a child.
 
1:24 PM
@DrRDizzle What? Can't you just have same opinion with me once
@CandiedMango Great possibility for that
@steelerfan I like my niece too. Girls are always more cute and adorable in small age then boys till they develop need for barbies and other girly stuff
 
My brother has 4 children, I am a human climbing frame.
 
@AnkitSharma Yeah, until they get an "attitude"
 
I'm perfectly fine messing around and playing but if they get grumpy they get nothing from me.
 
@CandiedMango I can see that.
My niece has an attitude. She is going to be a diva when she gets older.
 
@steelerfan I never claimed to be sophisticated damn it!
 
1:29 PM
One of mine does, she's the oldest and tries to take charge. :P
 
@CandiedMango My mind is an enigma that I can't figure out.
 
@steelerfan Mine is started becoming naughty but i have not met her from 7-8 months
 
It's an enigma because it's covered by a veil of hatred.
 
@AnkitSharma naughty as in terrible two's or as in 16 years old?
 
@steelerfan I have met someone on hinduism.se who is 17 and know programming at good level and have skill to annoy everyone. I loved him, he was fun.
 
1:31 PM
I can easily annoy people, in my old age I've grown soft.
 
@steelerfan naughty kid , who demands a lot and get grumpy too. But its tolerable for now
 
Mostly because I'd get suspended each and every day though.
 
@CandiedMango I get annoyed easily and hardly try to annoy others
 
Yes, it is always entertaining to hear @AnkitSharma go off about his co-workers :)
 
I never used to try it just used to happen, then I realised what I was doing, now I control it. I've always had the patience of a saint though, unless it's me being an idiot then it takes like 5 seconds for me to get annoyed.
 
1:35 PM
I am angry by nature.
As i already said my favorite dwarf is grumpy
I can relate with him
 
I am not a dwarf.
 
No!!! I don't think you're grumpy.
 
@MikeEdenfield O-o, can't imagine.
 
Yeah, Mango is 6'4" That is one tall Mango.
 
I wonder how much that mango would weigh.
 
1:38 PM
@AnkitSharma hehehe. Did you read the starred message from Mike E about Dr D in the delivery room? Priceless!!
 
@steelerfan I am not that grumpy but stupidity annoys me and sarcasm too because i am too straight forward.
@steelerfan delivery room? What is it?
 
@AnkitSharma ahhhhh, so that explains why you're never over in Mos Eisley ;)
 
@steelerfan you won my heart. Love you dear to say that.
 
@AnkitSharma It's a room where babies are delivered.....but, that's not important right now.
 
@steelerfan They go over the edges so i just avoid it. Agent of nothing is what i go there for.
 
1:40 PM
@AnkitSharma Stay away from my woman raises fists
 
@AnkitSharma Yes!! I have won Ankit's heart!!!
@CandiedMango hehehe. Lovin' the mango!!
 
@AnkitSharma Sorry, I had to give you an "Airplane!" reference. The door was wide open for it :)
 
1:45 PM
Ha! Angry Mango is such a bad-ass!
 
@CandiedMango where is the cape?
 
@Loong how mango can hold a cape?
 
@Loong OH god! I've revealed my secret identity!
Forgot the mask too.
 
@CandiedMango Are you barry ?
 
in Mos Eisley, 12 hours ago, by CandiedMango
Attaches cape to mango.
 
1:46 PM
Cisco did it this week!
 
I need to watch crossover episode
Did he revealed identity to all new superheros ?
@DrRDizzle One day you will be tired of hating
@steelerfan is it really your birtH year in UR EMAILID :O
 
@AnkitSharma As long as there are bad films or TV show or video games, I will have the energy to hate.
 
@DrRDizzle Games are stupidity addictive so i avoid them
I still want to buy PlayStation or X-box nut my finance are tight this days
 
@AnkitSharma PC is best for gaming anyway
 
PC is much more expensive though
Personally the best platform is wherever your friends are.
 
2:01 PM
@AnkitSharma What?
 
@CandiedMango Not really. You can build a PC with better specs than an Xbone or PS4 for about the same price, but then the games are cheaper and you don't have to pay extra for online gaming, and there are much more PC games, and you also then have a PC.
 
Then in 2 years that pc is outdated and you need a rebuild.
The console lasts for an entire generation of games, also I've bought games on xbox cheaper than steam has had them before.
Also you can get an xbone for £200 now. I'd have a hard time building those specs in a PC for that price.
 
@CandiedMango Well that's nonsense. As long as the game in question is created to a reasonable standard, PC's can play games at decent settings at 60FPS 1080P for years after they were built. Take my PC for example - I upgraded it recently, but before that it was running Mad Max at a significantly higher quality than the "next gen" consoles were, and it was at least 3 years old at that point.
 
@AnkitSharma Wait. Are you talking about the e-mail that I have set up for this site? That is my old e-mail. I don't even use it anymore. No, the year is actually the year that my husband was born. There was none available with my birth year on it. Actually, my e-mail is exactly the same except with an 80 at the end of it instead of 1974. Is that what you were asking?
Come to think of it, I should probably change that.
 
@DrRDizzle Not a £200 pc.
 
2:08 PM
@steelerfan ohhh my bad
 
@AnkitSharma I didn't think anyone else could see my e-mail.
 
Add in support for multiple types of controllers, nearly unlimited backwards compatibility, free online gaming, Steam sales, lower price of games in general thanks to greater competition amongst sellers, better quality graphics, better framerate and the fact that you have a PC with all the features that they have as well as a gaming machine, and a PC is more than worth the small increase in initial outlay.
Plus, with modern consoles like the Xbone and PS4 already struggling with new games (see: Just Cause 3 and countless other games running at substandard framerates or lower resolutions), how long do you really think it will be before Sony and Microsoft have to release a new generation?
 
Mod powers
 
@DrRDizzle ahhhh......no. But i can't have PlayStation or Xbox for a year atleast
 
Gheez, Mod powers indeed.
 
2:10 PM
@steelerfan Only high lords :D
 
@AnkitSharma I'm serious. I switched from 360 to PC just under 4 years ago, and I've never looked back.
 
I play both, because I can.
 
@DrRDizzle I was tired of my old PC and only have laptop
 
@CandiedMango I have a Wii U too, but that's just for the consistently brilliant Nintendo first party games.
 
It always saddens me how under-appreciated nintendo is :(
 
2:12 PM
I though to buy alienware but then my phone got broke and other money need came. So settled with stupid dell inspiron
 
@AnkitSharma Oh god, never buy Alienware. Total rip off.
 
If your primary focus is gaming never get a laptop.
 
@CandiedMango Also this.
 
I have a gaming laptop (custom built-ish) I got it because I needed portability above all else.
 
@DrRDizzle I know nothing about it and got nobody to give me live review and ;less money. So plan canceled long ago
 
2:13 PM
If you want a laptop though I recommend pcspecialist.co.uk
or if you want a pc and can't be bothered / don't know how to build your own
 
@CandiedMango My first PC came from Novatech. A bit overpriced, but worth it because I didn't know what I was doing at the time, and the warranty I bought for dirt cheap ended up saving my life.
 
My laptop is only a year old and i need to buy other stuff. So no plans.
 
Novatech are quite cheap by comparison to other places
Zoostorm is a good make
Always go custom if you can.
 
Next is mobile and then need to save for house stuff
 
E-mail changed :)
@AnkitSharma So, do you mods send personal e-mails to people?
 
2:18 PM
@steelerfan no but personal message, its SE feature
But we can check IP and emailid
 
@AnkitSharma Wow. You guys are too cool.
 
It help in detection cases like this

Cya guys, have an awesome day/afternoon/evening
 
Its evening in here
Time to leave office, i suppose
 
Just about midnight here.
Ciao.
 
2:21 PM
@CandiedMango I thought you lived in the UK?
 
I am British but currently residing in Aus
 
@CandiedMango Watch out for all the things trying to kill you then.
 
@DrRDizzle Its good, you are here else you might be chat suspended or banned
 
@AnkitSharma What?
 
I mean many chatrooms are bit flaggy this days and bit over defensive
 
2:37 PM

Q: Looking for Sci-Fi (horror) film or tv episode. 1990's?

xxmightyonexxI believe this was the 90's because I recall the images being sleek, like the re-make of Outer Limits. Not grainy. Not cheap film. Not foreign either (like Italy); they spoke English. Pretty sure this was on a cable channel too. The production was slick, but there was also a cheesy feel to it. H...

Q: Identify this movie: jazz musician comes back from heaven?

lemonThese few details should be taken with a pinch of salt: Romantic film A dead jazz/trumpet player comes back from heaven to be with his love I suspect late 80s/early 90s (but this isn't based on much) Sounds awful, I know, but it would make someone's Christmas...

Q: A cowboy is dragged by his horse into a diner

AhmadI've seen this western movie around 1992. Color, English. The first scene (maybe while the intro credits are still being displayed), is of a cowboy sleeping on a blank that is tied to a horse. This horse is dragging him over. In one shot, we see the horse go through a road that has a small pond,...

Q: Did John Wayne ever shoot first?

MarkIn a recent interview, George Lucas has stated the following: I said, ‘Yeah, he should be John Wayne.’ And when you’re John Wayne, you don’t shoot people [first] — you let them have the first shot. John Wayne has been in a LARGE number of movies, I have a very hard time believing he has ne...
