"It was just me and the safety, and it's a business decision on his behalf," Lacy said. "So I just lowered my pads, and we just went from there." :lmao:

I wonder why it is that we (people) generally love staring at train wrecks. I mean it's the whole basis for those judge TV shows and Jerry Springer type stuff. Maybe it makes us feel better about ourselves? I dunno.

Just blew my entire lunch hour reading this saga, then tried to convince myself it was somehow better spent than spending an hour watching one of those TV judge shows. :unsure: Feel bad for the kids. :(

I understand the issue completely, I'm saying the practice is stupid (because the user has to convert the number on the box to a meaningful number), and that it will never change (because no company wants to be the one advertising smaller numbers).

I would load up an SD card with movies if there was a slot on an iPad but I think it's fair to say connecting a portable hard drive to a tablet computer would be pretty silly. On second thought, they could make an extra long cord for the drive and sell stylish pouches to hold the drive on your...

:goodposting:Elf and Christmas Vacation are the only movies we go back to every single year.

Yeah, the decimal / binary thing has been there forever. It's stupid but it will never change because nobody wants to be the one company advertising smaller sizes. Anyways, it is interesting that a 32 GB surface has roughly the same amount of storage available to the end user as a 16 GB iPad.

[/SPOILER]Maybe I'm remembering this wrong but...Brain fart, those should read Misty Mountains.

[/SPOILER]We ordered 3 of those sets for my son(two from Santa one from grandparents) :excited: The Bag End set especially looks phenominal. They hit that one out of the park.

Whatever the merits of RT may be, 12 GB is an absolutely massive footprint for a mobile OS.

So anyways, bringing this back to the Hobbit, a quick look at the Hobbit LEGO sets in the back of the late 2012 holiday catalog gives a good idea of what major scenes to expect from the movie. There are sets representing the following scenes:

LEGO cars are a dime a dozen. My six year old will dissapear in his room for an hour and come out with 10 cars he made up. Probably has enough wheels and windshields to build a car dealership if he wanted. Go for Helm's Deep, it has orcs and horses and castle walls and stuff. :thumbup: This...

I am a huge LEGO nerd. :nerd:

The official site plot synopsis seems pretty clear that the riddles scene is in the movie. Between that and (don't laugh) the LEGO sets being released along with the movie, I am expecting the first movie to end somewhere around "Flies and Spiders" and "Barrel out of Bound". If so the first...

Ordered an NEX-5R over the weekend, it will be my first foray into interchangable lenses and full manual controls. Considered DSLRs on and off for a number of years but never pulled the trigger because I was sure I'd never take it anywhere. Any NEX Guys in here?
