QUOTE (caulfield12 @ Nov 4, 2015 -> 08:52 PM) That's officially nuts. First of all, Emily Blunt is a bit miscast in that role...she's too naive, weak, timid and it doesn't come close to matching her recent action characters. She is basically dominated by all three male characters that she interacts with in the movie. Second, while del Toro was GREAT in his role (which was mostly being menacing and mysterious), some of the plot machinations in the final 1/3rd of the movie weren't exactly the most logical. They moved the story from point A to point B, but not in a coherent way. Some like it better than No Country for Old Men (another Brolin role), but movies like John Wick, The Equalizer and especially Man on Fire with similar themes are much more entertaining. CRASH was much better as well. The first scene in the house and then the tense border standoff in the traffic jam...those were the best scenes by far. You don't need to have dramatic, Fast & the Furious style car chases, explosions and CGI to create an atmosphere of tension and foreboding. Maybe the best example of this is Steven Spielberg's very first move in the early 1970's, DUEL, with Dennis Weaver. You don't even SEE the driver of the truck that Weaver is having it out with the entire movie. I would say 95 out of 100 filmgoers would see a movie like Gravity or The Martian and prefer those latter two. From a filmmaker's perspective, I can APPRECIATE it, but at the same time not thoroughly enjoy it... I agree with this. After the scene at the border, I was into it but than it just dragged. The whole tunnel sequence looked like a video game and not a good one. I've never been a huge Benicio guy. He seems to be the same in everything I see. His whole thing was predictable. It looked good. That was about it.

Wife and oldest son under investigation now.

News showed some Fox Lake businesses wth anti Gliniewicz signs in their windows already. Yikes

If he was using stolen money for personal reasons, I'm wondering if his wife was in on it.

Wow. I'm totally shocked by all this. Maybe because nothing ever happens up here and I'm just naive. It seems like a total 180 of how everyone talked about the guy.

http://www.fox32chicago.com/news/local/44073053-story If this is true, I can admit I was wrong. Maybe I thought it was disrespectful to jump to the suicide conclusion so quick, but I was mistaken.

Another press conference tomorrow with "significant findings". Ok

RIP Strasburg's arm

Not sure HF will get by Loyola the previous week. That Bolinbgbrook loss raises a red flag. Although Loyola seems to like to choke big games.

QUOTE (bmags @ Nov 3, 2015 -> 09:38 AM) Whisenhunts record his last 5 years has to be the worst record of all time during a stretch like that, right? 6-44 in his last 50 games according to Bill Simmons. Nuts.

QUOTE (bmags @ Nov 3, 2015 -> 09:53 AM) Did anyone actually watch the project greenlight movie? I DVRd it but heard it is pretty bad.

How did Sicario get 93% on RT? So boring and incoherent.

Great QB play tonight so far

Ya'll nerds. /Puts on Back to the Future

Zach Norvell to Gonzaga. No clue why Illinois didn't try harder for him. He's better than DJ Williams.

QUOTE (pittshoganerkoff @ Nov 1, 2015 -> 12:04 PM) It is fantastic. Some truly terrifying moments and plenty of humor. I would say the tone is similar to Evil Dead 2. I though it was good as well. I've honestly never seen the movies and it was easy to catch up and know what happened.

Boring offense so far

Probably not alone but I don't want the Sox spending any money this offseason. Shed LaRoche even if you have to eat a lot of his contract and let young kids play for a year. Rotate DH between guys. Risking another bad FA contract is something I'm not really interested in.

Anyone watch Ash vs Evil Dead? Have it on DVR.

QUOTE (KyYlE23 @ Nov 1, 2015 -> 08:30 AM) Rios is hitting .289 in the playoffs and hit .368/.368/.529 against the blue Jays. He isn't hitting well in the World Series but his play has been anything but inept. You looooove Rios. nanny nanny boo boo

QUOTE (RockRaines @ Nov 1, 2015 -> 06:26 AM) I'm not sure bad coaching by the opponents files it into deserving to lose. It wasn't the refs. Yeah. I don't see any similarities in the MSU loss and this win. I thought going for the win was the right move for Minn the way their offense was rolling and the defense finally made a play. I stayed away from everything college football for a few days after the MSU loss so I don't know if any Michigan fans came on here to say MSU didn't deserve it. It was a fluke but the lack of execution by Michigan lost it. It was their own fault. Dropped 1st down passes, etc.

QUOTE (danman31 @ Nov 1, 2015 -> 04:07 AM) No reason to be rude. Was just commenting on how lucky your school was. They deserved to lose. Yeah. I was the rude one.

QUOTE (danman31 @ Oct 31, 2015 -> 09:50 PM) New rule for the Michigan fans on here: no more b****ing about the MSU loss. Stole the Minnesota game just as much as the MSU game was stolen from you. You break even. Yes master.
