| 39616 | The Café | well seeing how we've foiled SOPA and PIPA's plans in trying to rid us of the internet altogether i'm sure there's a glimmer of hope before the last months tide over. | Benjanime | Apr 23, 2018 |  |
| 39615 | Monster Truck Shows | I haven't been to one. I think these are in need of updating somehow. Either by adding some new element to the shows or making the stunts more dangerous/exciting. The sport needs an Evel Kneivel who pushes the danger to the limit.<div><br></div><div>Also... Grave Digger rules.</div> | Vaporman87 | Apr 23, 2018 | |

They dictated the terms of service to the providers. They're giving up that power (a rare move in government). Still, it's uncertain how this will play out. Could be good... could be bad. Just have to wait and see. I just can't imagine ISPs making things difficult for their customers and NOT having to face the consequences via better, newer providers who're willing to give folks what they want. | Vaporman87 | Apr 23, 2018 | |

| 39612 | The Café | Personally, I can't picture Net Neutrality being permanently gutted. Not unless the United States somehow ends up turning into a dictatorship. Yes, it may end up being an uphill battle with all the states suing the FCC, and states passing laws to still keep Net Neutrality rules in place under government contracts. But in the long run, with how unpopular the gutting of Net Neutrality is across people of all different political spectrums (there's been studies that has shown that 85% of Americans are against the FCC's decision, a very high number), then we're likely going to see Net Neutrality become reinstated. <div><br></div><div>If, somehow, Net Neutrality does end up being permanently gutted, and we never get back ever again, that would leave me gravely concerned for the future of the United States. It would leave us on a very dangerous path if the FCC had everything their way despite such an unpopular move.</div> | blueluigi | Apr 23, 2018 | |
| 39611 | Last Movie You Watched | Continuing my posts about my MCU marathon.<div><br></div><div>Avengers: Age of Ultron:</div><div><br></div><div>What I liked:</div><div>- The action, especially the opening battle sequence with The Avengers battling Wolfgang Strucker and HYDRA.</div><div>- The introduction of Scarlet Witch and Quicksilver.</div><div>- Vision. They did an incredible job building the arc for this character.</div><div>- Ultron.</div><div><br></div><div>What I didn't like:</div><div>- The farm scene. That could've been left out of the film.</div><div>- The forced romance between Black Widow and Hulk. I don't see any chemistry between Ruffalo and Johansson.</div><div><br></div><div>Overall, not as good as the first Avengers film, but still a satisfying sequel.</div><div><br></div><div>4 out of 5.</div><div><br></div><div>Ant-Man:</div><div><br></div><div>This is a rather surprising movie, as I originally had low expectations for this film. Because really, how could shrinking to the size of a thumbtack be considered cool? Nonetheless, this film exceeded all expectations. The highlight of the film is where Ant-Man and Yellowjacket battle on top of a Thomas the Tank Engine toy. Overall, not on par with Avengers or Guardians of the Galaxy, but still a f-ant-astic voyage.</div><div><br></div><div>4 out of 5.</div><div><br></div><div>Captain America: Civil War:</div><div><br></div><div>I'm gonna try to briefly give a review of this movie without drawing comparisons to the other superhero movie that came out in the same year. Captain America: Civil War is something you don't see every day in modern day cinema: a threequel that somehow surpasses the first two films. While the absence of Thor and Hulk are lamentable, the newcomers are welcome to fill their shoes, mostly Chadwick Boseman as the prince of Wakanda, T'Challa, and Tom Holland as Spider-Man, which is quite possibly the most memorable part of the movie. I can definitely say that the MCU is in good hands with the Russo Brothers.</div><div><br></div><div>5 out of 5.</div><div><br></div><div>Doctor Strange:</div><div><br></div><div>Benedict Cumberbatch was the perfect choice for Stephen Strange, the special effects were amazing (and trippy, I might add) and the scene with Dr. Strange going up against Dormammu is proof that you don't need to have characters to engage in fisticuffs to make up for an epic battle scene. Overall, a magical experience.</div><div><br></div><div>4.5 out of 5.</div><div><br></div><div>Guardians of the Galaxy, Vol. 2:</div><div><br></div><div>This film focused more on character development than plot device (especially on the Ravager Yondu Udonta ("I'm Mary Poppins, y'all!"), which is effective because it gives the audience a chance to connect with the characters. Such a weird and bizarre universe captured beautifully on the big screen.</div><div><br></div><div>4.5 out of 5.</div><div><br></div><div>Spider-Man Homecoming:</div><div><br></div><div>Just got finished watching this film tonight and I must say that this is the best Spider-Man film in a while. Tom Holland once again excels as Peter Parker both in and out of the suit, and there's a lot of shocking plot twists to look out for. Overall, a VAST improvement over the Amazing Spider-Man movies with Andrew Garfield.</div><div><br></div><div>5 out of 5.</div><div><br></div><div>I'll probably conclude my Marvel Cinematic Universe marathon tomorrow night with Thor: Ragnarok and write a review the next day, so stay tuned!</div> | Michelangelo | Apr 23, 2018 | |

I imagine new solutions will present themselves in that case. But as I said, we won't know until we cross those bridges. | Vaporman87 | Apr 23, 2018 | |
