    Game of Thrones Season 8 (2019)

    No spoilers other than sloooooooow episode. With only 6 this season I'm surprised they wasted this episode. Felt like the last breath before the plunge without the fear/excitement which I began the episode with. I'll let others discuss the content. I am just baffled by the overall feel of an...

    Wisdom of the Crowd

    Just wondering if anyone else is watching this new show. I have caught the first 3 episodes on demand and I have to say I am really enjoying it. The premise of the users of the internet helping solve crimes feels like it is not far off from current events. Cell phone videos and texting is so...

    Books You've Read 2016

    Re Read books 1 and 2 of the Red Rising Trilogy in preparation for the third that came out last tuesday. I love it when I enjoy a book more the second (or third) time through. Excellent series for those sci fi / fantasy fans out there. And with this series inparticular, I think it falls under...

    Marvel's Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. - Season 3

    I am loving the Fitz Simmons stuff. Very much looking forward to finding out more about the twist ending this week.

    Playstation or XBOX One

    Ok. The systems are mature, they are at the least mid life. Both have great games. I have owned earlier versions of both consoles. I am craving the new star wars game coming out in November. I'm ready to jump. I have 2 questions. First, is this a good time to buy or should I wait until...

    Win an Onkyo TX-NR1030 9.2 channel Dolby Atmos AV Receiver

    I would love to win this receiver because I have been shopping for a receiver for the last few months as I slowly upgrade my system. Quite frankly, this is a dream receiver for someone like me. It is out of my price range by about $200 so the only way that I could enjoy this item would be to...

    Things You Wish Will (or Won't) Happen Before You Die

    I would like to see: Humans back on the Moon or on Mars Teleportation (I hate my commute) Time Travel be possible but only so that we go to the future, see how we destroy our planet, come back and get our collective heads out of our a**.

    Logitech/HTF Contest Giveaway: Logitech Harmony Ultimate Remote [ENTER HERE]

    If I were to win the Harmony Ultimate Remote it would be replacing a Roku, Samsung Blu Ray, Vizio TV, Sony Receiver and a Fios box so, 5 remotes. I would also hope that my wife would fall in love with it and allow me to buy 2 more to replace the multiple remotes in the family room and master...

    S.H.I.E.L.D. (Joss Whedon's Live Action Marvel Universe TV Series on ABC)

    Agreed. I liked the scene but think it would have been better suited as an "extra" after the episode

    S.H.I.E.L.D. (Joss Whedon's Live Action Marvel Universe TV Series on ABC)

    Finale was kinda awesome, kinda confusing. Need a second watching

    S.H.I.E.L.D. (Joss Whedon's Live Action Marvel Universe TV Series on ABC)

    No way they killed off Fitz Simmons. I am worried that Ward will be redeemed. He could be the perfect arch enemy in future seasons if done right

    S.H.I.E.L.D. (Joss Whedon's Live Action Marvel Universe TV Series on ABC)

    So it seems as though I can't pick up issue 1 of anything and start. Bummer

    S.H.I.E.L.D. (Joss Whedon's Live Action Marvel Universe TV Series on ABC)

    In trying to research the comics from Marvel, it seems very difficult to find a starting point to read them. I really enjoy the Marvel movies and this show but would like to enhance that with the comics. HTF tends to have experts in all fields wandering the forums so I am just taking a shot...

    Elementary - Season 2

    I find the show does well when it is exploring a lengthy arc. While I enjoyed these couple Lestrade episodes, there are bigger questions they need to get back to exploring......

    HBO's Game of Thrones

    So far it is great. I was not quite as nervous for this as I was going into Fellowship of the Rings, but this is a story that I did not want to see ruined. If night 1 is a sign of things to come, I think we are safe. I got so caught up in the show that I forgot that it was a weekly show and...

    Is the LOTR Blu-Ray due sooner than we think?

    sadly, this will be the 4th time I will buy it and they could probably get me on the theatrical, extended, box set and then super spectacular hobbit/lotr box set. I am so Peter Jackson's Bitch.

    Sleeping Beauty: 2003 Special Edition vs. 2008 Platinum Edition

    I think it looks great too. I do have a question though regarding framing. I understand that some director's shoot their movies with more of an image available then what they ultimately will crop the film to when they project it. Why on earth would a director of an ANIMATED film have people work...

    Does anybody work at UPS?

    I am a full time supervisor for UPS. I have worked there for five years. I came aboard as a part time preloader 4-9 am for 3 months. Then I went into management. I spent 9 months as a part time supervisor and was them promoted to full time. It is a very lucrative position but it does have it's...

    Wheel of Time #10 released today

    Found this from a long time ago and thought I would mention that Robert Jordan passed away about 2 weeks ago after a long illness. He did however write extensive notes on how the last book (that he was working on when he died) should be finished. His wife who is also his editor will be...

    How to Archive from Directv +

    I have a Directv+ DVR and would like to archive to my computer with a DVD Burner. First, is this the best idea or would it be better to buy a DVD player/recorder to hook directly to the DVR and TV? Second, If I go to the computer with this, Do I just use an audio and a video connection right to...

    Muggle Alert: Who's Ready For "HARRY POTTER AND THE ORDER OF THE PHOENIX"?

    Not sure if Rowling will use the "theme?" that alot of other fantasy writers have used, but Maybe Harry, as the Chosen One, CAN bring someone back from the dead. In many magic/Fantasy stories, this bit is used. Maybe he will be the one that can break the Veil.
