Eagerly awaiting Deadpool 2 in 2 days.

 

I just went swimming.

I'm enjoying the pool for a few more weeks before the hot Tampa Summer starts for 4 months lol.

 

 

I wish I could go swimming. My apartment complex's pool is only a maximum of like four feet deep. I'm the same though, probably going to see it Saturday evening.

Yo guys, what's new?

Just saw Annihilation.  That was a (beautiful) mind fuck. 😵

It's a really well done movie that makes you question life, the universe and everything while trying not to be overwhelmed by the massive dizzying array of colors.

Link doesn't seem to work.

Thanks for pointing that out! Link should work now.

Click to see the list and their reasoning behind each choice.

Would you add anything to this list? If so, what and why?

How often or how frequently do you visit the theater? Are there certain criteria that warrant paying that little bit extra for the bigger screen?

Do you prefer to watch movies in the theater or in the comfort of your own home?

I'm 5'6".  I have a very high metabolism and don't gain weight from eating.  If I don't work out I don't get fat, but instead just stay super thin.  The goal for me isn't to lose weight, but to instead gain weight by building muscle.

Lucky, I got screwed over. I was extremely active in my youth and then an injury took away the entire winter worth of physical activity my body grew accustomed to; but, my hunger levels never changed 😞

Somebody color it and I want one!

There was a lot of movies on this list way, way before my time. Only reason I saw Nosferatu, The Great Train Robbery, Birth of a Nation and a few other oldies was because of my Cinema History course in college.

If you could become immortal on the condition you would NEVER be able to die or kill yourself, would you choose immortality?

Getting big isn't an issue for me. If I'm in shape I'm 225. I'm....not 225 at the moment.

How tall are you? I'm just wondering because I'm 6'3" and according to the BMI, I'm overweight unless I weigh 200 lbs lol.

My friend actually said the same thing about re-reading all of the Battletech books. I'll have to check them out. I've been working my way through a lot of free books offered through the website Bookbub.

I know the feeling man. I've slacked off a lot on my previous workout ethic.

Figured might as well make this as I'm a bit of a history nut. This will essentially be the center for all discussions pertaining to history or history-related things.

So for a starting topic, favorite historical leader and why?
 

Figured we could use this as a general sort of fitness/health/gym thread to discuss workout tips, places to purchase protein, dieting tips, etc.
 

What do you think about game shows? Do you have a favorite one?

A place to discuss what novels you're planning to read, what authors you're interested or keeping up with, stuff like that..

So, I'll begin.

Worst book you've been required to read for a course/class?

Wasn't as funny as I was hoping for. Though I do have to admit, I'm super stoked for the movie to come out.

Yeah, true. I'll try to make some new threads to help out with activity as well.

Alright, gotcha! I'll work on figuring out how to make it work then.

Gotta be careful splitting activity between discord and a physical board. Hopefully things pick up here!

I guess I missed this thread.

Hello anyway!

Really?

I don't know how I feel about Venom. He's been one of my more preferred anti-heroes. I mean I enjoy Tom Hardy as an actor; but, I don't know if the route their taking is the best way to bring him on screen.

I guess we'll just have to wait and see.

Just media threads ranging from specific movies, subject about movies (actors/actresses/favorite films) to video games, literature, music and television.

For example:

1.)  Specific show related threads

2.) Console oriented discussions? Like an evolved form of the current video game thread; but, with one of each for the current consoles.

3.) Game series discussions?

3.) Literature threads

4.)  Maybe movie news?

Which would then open up the ability to hold discussions fitness/health, cooking, body art/tattoos, etc in the general.
