Just got beyond two souls for Christmas. Seems like one if those interactive movie type games. I'm intrigued by the story so far, but I've also not had to do any combat yet.

It's on again
it's off again
where did it begin
where does it end
I thought it was over
but it's still not the end
All we have is right now
We'll watch the clouds turn inside out
If the sun doesn't rise
That's fine I don't mind
It's OK I prefer sitting in the dark anyway
It's wintertime, it's low tide
Let's hang for a while
and watch the world die
On the last day we are alive

I think I'm severely underrating this one:

I just loved the Desolation of Smaug. Loved the hell out of it. I don't remember hardly anything from the book, so I'm shocked and surprised by just about anything. I have absolutely no problem with the Killi / Tauriel / Legolas stuff. It helps flesh out some of the nameless dwarfs and there's nothing at all wrong with that. The only thing I didn't really care for was Gandalf's sidequest. But the barrel escape, the big bear, and Smaug. Smaug. SMAUG. Just astonishing.
I do hope that Thorin Oakenshield and the Pale Orc get to have their Death Match, um, to the death.

Batista's back?
YAY!

I just wanted to say that I was very pleased that Alex and Sierra won the X-Factor last night. That is all.

Bray Wyatt should not wrestle another match until Wrestlemania. He should only show up and wreck shop on already hurt people like he did at TLC. He's got a bit of an aura, and he shouldn't take any offense for a long time.
And then of course, at Wrestlemania or whenever you want to give him his first loss, someone should smash that rocking chair on him.

You know that Sunbather album that has been getting all kinds of album of the year hype? Yeah, Deafheaven absolutely deserves it. Thing is fucking immense.
I've been pimping this thing since May. Even better live.

I love how Brody's dying wish was for Carrie not to be at his execution. And then there she is, making a spectacle of herself. I'm pretty sure Brody did the getting-hanged version of an eye roll at her.

I loved the dark and creepy atmosphere up until the reveal. I think the movie went off the rails at the Crawford Institute and never got back on course. It was great up until then.

Why would you take an iPad to a WWE show?
1 out of every 5 in my section either had their iPhone or their iPad out recording the entire show. Yes, even Miz / Kofi.

Went to TLC live.
Of course I sat in front of that "smart" fan who chanted to himself "Goldberg" and "Husky Harris." Thankfully no one joined in.
Bray Wyatt's offense looked very hurty and very explosive. His exorcist spider walk got a legit "That was creepy!" Chant that I hope made the telecast. Oh, and Bray made a kid cry on the way back up the ramp. He offered a kid his hat, then put it on himself and laughed.
Main ending seemed botched. It was never more than OK.
It was fun to see live. Crowd mostly loved Cena. Hated that mix/Kofi abortion and rightfully gave it the boring chant.

Well, there's like four options.
1. Cena wins both titles!
2. Orton wins both titles through chicanery!
3. Neither wins both titles, and we're back where we started.
4. someone else leaves with the belts.
I'd say, in order of likelihood, options 3 and 1 are the most likely. Option 4 would be pretty interesting, and would have probably worked better if a) money in the bank were still in play and b) they had someone decent to actually pull it off. Of course, they could always do the kick wham pedigree rout to have the belts go to Triple H, but does anyone actually want that? A far better option would be for Undertaker to somehow come into possession of the belts and just start defending them once a year at Wrestlemania.

Fire everyone.

I find Chelsea Wolfe much more appealing when she's guesting on someone else's music. Her stuff is OK, but she's better as the gravy to someone else's meat than as the main course by herself.
I think I read the Ryback thread too much.

Blancanieves.
Watched this on a lark, and I'm so glad I did. Just a gorgeous film. I was a little hesitant with the whole silent film thing, but it works as a throwback to those days but still works in a modern aspect as well. Performances are through the roof, especially of the evil stepmother and Carmen -- throw in the dwarf who saves her life; he does nothing but look at her and you know exactly what he's feeling every time he's on screen. But the real stars are the production design, the costuming, and the score. Everything works, and everything is poetic and magical and I can't recommend it enough.

So are the blazers legit? And, uh, what's different this year?

Deafheaven - Sunbather
Moving Mountains - Moving Mountains

So the advertised TLC card is just
Orton v. Cena TLC
The Shield v. CM Punk
The Wyatts v. Daniel Bryan
Big E. Langston v. Damien Sandow
AJ v. Natalya
And that's it. No other gimmick matches? I remember TLC always having a TLC match, a ladder match, a table match, and a chair match. And the gimmicks will be wasted on Orton and Cena, who we know won't take any big bumps.
I guess they might have a tag match added -- Goldust and Cody v. Cesaro / Swagger.
I guess we're talking about a one-match show.

Well, now I'm excited for Cena v. Bryan, Punk v. Triple H, and Bryan v. HBK.
Wait.
None of those matches are happening at TLC?
Well, at least it will be fun to chant "Daniel Bryan" during the main event at TLC.

Just finished Orphan Black. Great finale. Just so impressed. Really looking forward to next season.
Alison watching Ainsley die a la Walter White was way darker than I could expect from anything involving Alison. And I'm not 100% sure Helena is dead. I could see her having Kira's super healing power and coming back. So many possibilities with this show.
Just a masterful performance. Each Clone had a distinct look, distinct personality, distinct mannerisms. Everything made sense. Can't ask for more than that.

Peter King is saying he expects Gary Kubiak to be fired today
Are they firing everyone else too? Please?
Well someone has to coach out the season, but I would think a housecleaning would be coming in about a month.
Andre Johnson, Player-Coach?
