This is the place for all conversations that just don't quite fit the need for a whole new topic (AKA, the continuation of 9,999 Replies). Share with us your personal problems, hobbies and interests, what foods you like, things that really tick you off, or just random questions. E.g. You may be wondering what the hell loquacious means (from reading the topic subtitle). Well, for the interested folk, this is it:

Talkative:

Loquacious implies an inclination to talk incessantly or to keep up a constant flow of chatter (quite fitting). So, without further ado, let the loquaciousness continue! tongue.gif

loquacious reminds me of the name of my old middle school councilor who escilated every problem to dramatic proportions.

Anyone seen cloverfield?

I just got back from a big outing with my mates - man, that was a killer film! I would recommend you go watch this if you're into the intense thriller sort of stuff. Really great movie!

Seriously - you need to go and watch it. But make sure you're at a cinema when you do. It's one of those films that really places you in the centre of the action when you hear all the buildings falling, etc... You only get that feeling in the cinema. But yeah, amazing film. smile.gif

last movies I have seen:

Awaken:
Reccomended
Ratting: 8/10

The plot consist in the story focuses on a man who suffers "anesthetic awareness" and finds himself awake and aware, but paralyzed, during heart surgery. His young wife must wrestle with her own demons as a drama unfolds around them.

Gabriel:
Don't watch this crap, seriously.
Ratting: -4/10

GABRIEL tells the story of an Arc Angel who fights to bring light back to purgatory - a place where darkness rules - and save the souls of the city's inhabitants.

I heard some people that go see it have to leave because they start getting motion sickness. rolleyes.gif Maybe the dude with the camera should have turned the SteadyShot® on? biggrin.gif

Cloverfield=Movie Of The Year......until Iron Man and Dark Knight come out. tongue.gif

But yea, it's a {censored} amazing movie. Everyone that I've heard from said it was awesome, but some said the ending was crap, which it kinda was. Someone I talked to was like 'The movie was terrible, the ending sucked.' To which I smacked him.

Did anybody see the thing fall from the sky when they showed the water at Coney Island? Right before it turns to Rob and Beth on the ferris wheel.

I dun saw it boyyeee!
Here is what I didn't like about Cloverfield (which I give a 7/10): Rob was a little bitch and got everyone killed to save Beth, who got killed anyway. Also, who survives helicopter crashes tongue.gif ?
Special-K
They came out of free will. And Hud almost made it. He lasted longer than all the rest. Although black girl (her name slipped me) left so she might be alive. And yea, no one would've made that. But it was {censored} awesome. Out of the dust, just BAM SON! Don't lie, you know that part was bitching.
(MoC)

I'm personally not a fan of the ol' Cloverfield. Nor the Planet of the Apes remake which I saw today. Tim Burton has absolutely butchered that film - at least his best pal Johnny Depp wasn't in it!

Also, LOLlerskates at the Cloverfield sequel being plugged WITHIN the first damn movie. Cha-ching!
Numberzz
Hell yeah, Cloverfield was one movie that I want to see again. Luckily I downloaded it so I can. tongue.gif
Special-K
I hate Tim Burton. I hope he dies an excruciatingly painful and freakishly slow death.

Whoa, I feel deja vu.
Soündless
i also dislike tim burton, but i do like jay adams, too bad he went evangelical...

What do you think that J.J. Abrams will direct the new Startrek movie.


Wanna see

I heard about that before I went in to see it, but I completely forgot to watch out for it when the scene came up!! >.< I've seen a few YouTube videos of the ending scene, apparently it is there, but the quality was so crap I couldn't really make it out.

Star Trek is too nerdy for me. Far too nerdy. I'm pissed I can't find a good copy of Jumper. Anybody seen it here? Worth seeing it in the theaters? I'm guessing so just cause of Rachel Bilson (booooiiiinnnng), but nobody wants to go.

My brother went to see it, said it really wasn't worth it. After not believing him and going to see it myself, I'd have to agree. Save your time.

This isn't as cool as 9999.

Alright so Boot Camp refuses to work for me. So with my new 4 gigs of Ram, I turn to Parallels or Fusion. Which one will run Guild Wars better. Doesn't have to be highest settings. But like low-mid settings. And hopefully run without an assload of hiccups.

You could always make a new partition and format it for Windows...
Special-K
I did. I tried a couple times. But every XP disc I use phails. Granted that they're all burnt. But still, it worked through Fusion once. And I've installed it on my boy's Dell a couple times.

I love Titus ( series Christopher Titus). Does any one else like it??
Special-K
Never liked it when it was on. Yet I watched cause there was nothing else on tv. Probably like it now. I hated Arrested Development when it was on but now it's like one of my favorite shows.

I wish it was easier to tell if people like you or just want to be friends or what. Its so hard to know.

bedlight try vista. it has efi support, doesn't it? and how does boot camp fail?

(MoC)
Vista final has no EFI support. One of the betas did and would boot but not vista 6000. Yeah, get yourself a 'burnt' copy. biggrin.gif
