    Im not overtly worried about anyone in this group really. We should get through and top the group too.
  2. yeah, they've chucked everything away I'm definitely going to go watch it. there are references to Aliens but I can't imagine they'll dwell too long on it.
  3. I'm not sure any of those are reboots, the originals are just continuations with timeline variance. The prometheus and covenant movies are prequels. Alien vs Predator is some hollywood cash grab and isn't a reboot in the true sense. Nostromo maybe but I wouldn't say its a reboot either. When I think of reboot, and I might be wrong here, I think of the original story/protagonist getting rewritten with a change in the storyline to effect a new way of telling the same story. Batman is a good example of this. With the Alien series I feel like they've always taken it in different directions and even with Ripley two timelines never intersect its more of a continuation.
  4. According to how the movie goes they've ditched all the stuff past Aliens and just stuck with the original Nostromo story with very close ties to the colony on LV. They've also totally discounted Ripley entirely and are going with a new storyline where the corporation is doing its usual stuff and things go haywire. The thing I like a lot about this is that it's gone back to corridor horror mixed with action which are the two elements from the first two films that did really well. Couple this with a guy who has a creative story telling with young people getting into fucked up situations and some gore I think we'll get an entertaining movie. Will it be the best Alien out there? Who knows but alteast we won't have all the drivel that's been part of the core franchise for a while now. When did they reboot Alien?
  5. Saw that it got some high praise so off to the queue it goes.
  6. The only ones who can help right now are UEFA and FIFA. Both those federations are so corrupt you're not going to see them implement anything worthwhile because of how much money they make from tournaments like the Champions League in terms of ads, tv space, etc. And even if they weren't the soulless vessels they are, you'd get some serious opposition from clubs around Europe questioning how they are going to just magically start to achieve parity when the clubs in question who have unbalanced the pyramid will have zero ground to cover to continue doing what they are doing.
  7. I just want it to be high octane action and some humans get f'ed so bad they don't need to make a sequel or continuation of any kind. Then tie it into another movie as canon later. The rest is irrelevant.
  8. Somewhere around the 8th minute I got tired of the drivel coming out of his mouth. I hope the lawyers you'll have aren't anywhere as clueless as this guy because if they are God help you'll. I do think you'll will win this though it's just stacked up against the way the laws of the country are but a good set of lawyers on the other side could just as well turn this over.
  9. A state-owned club has an issue with a democratically voted system of fiscal fairness. Colour me shocked.
  10. Might have to go give it a look when a demo comes out. EA's football game never really made me feel like I was playing a football game so heres hoping.
  11. Yep full set here and no problems ... yet.
  12. Zero worries from anyone on this really. They'll just pay the courts the fine and the amount because the amounts themselves are ridiculous and then he'll just go about his day like any other citizen. Spain truly has some weird fiscal irregularity laws.
  13. Looked up and saw the rainy skies then I said I wonder what John is doing now and looked down into my glass or rum and coke and cheered to it. Thanks for letting us know buddy.
  14. gosh i miss that crazy Argentine bastard. I hope he's doing well. Told him I'd get him hooked up with some women here if he ever took the time to visit.
  15. I miss the original crest they'd put on shirts. Now it seems like the bird was kicked out of the house and it's doing its own tour.
  16. He has Pep on speed-dial so maybe not so much of a train-wreck.
  17. I am very curious how Bayern setup now. I can't see them winning a CL and tbh if Alonso has his way I can't see them winning another league title as well. Time will tell.
  18. Just thought about this and I wonder if he'd even want to go considering all that's happening in that league. Then again, the lure of money and a potentially great buyout can sometimes change people. I don't think he'll take it honestly as he still has a lot left in him.
  19. I think 300 million + a bonus if he does well in his first season would suit us fine. I don't think the new manager wants to let go of one of the best players of our season and potentially one of the best keepers in the league too.
  20. Strong passing and pressure-building side that. That front-line would certainly cause all kinds of damage even against some of the best teams.
  21. I think he's going to do well there. I am also kind of curious where Xavi is going now.
  22. I will say its loading a lot faster than the old site already for me. Used to be i'd click on something and it would spin a bit and then let me in, seems nearly instantaneous now. Edit: Posting is also a lot faster.
  23. I think I'd have waited till the cup was over its not like you have anything else to play anyways. But tis what it is.
