    did someone, three pages ago, seriously say that Pacific Rim was rich with subtle meaning without drawing attention to it, and then use a heroic man stepping out of a hatch into a ray of divine light while smiling beneficently in a literal exploration of the memories of someone whom he had saved as an example?

    What's this noise about Monopoly eliminating the Jail in new editions?
    Monopoly – one of the typically longer board games – no longer has jail time, because its manufacturer, Hasbro, figures kids don’t have time to waste in the slammer.

    You can hardly ruin the game, and making it shorter is an improvement!

    Saw The Wolverine. They made some interesting decisions. First, it's not a Wolverine movie. It's a Logan movie. The stakes in the film are more personal. It's about him coming to grips with the death of Jean more then fighting the villian. It's weird to say this but it's much more intimate then you'd expect. It has some flaws but it casts off the stench of the previous Wolverine movie.

    AO Scott at the New York Times called it "intimate" too. This makes me happy. Comic readers have known for decades that small personal stories can be as good as the huge epic ones. It sure would be nice of movie people finally figured that one out too.

    Monopoly is only "long" if you play with bullshit house rules designed to make it more "fair."

    It's amazing how much quicker the game goes if nobody gets a "free parking" money bonanza.

    Buddhists have taken over, and they will slowly remove each unfun mechanic from monopoly until there is nothing left, because that's all it contains

    And then children will sit in a circle around a blank board and achieve the enlightening purity of blank thought

    the new movie is Days of Future Past, which is a time travel story, and it's going to have cast from the original movies and First Class together in it, and Bryan Singer has pretty much come out and said that X3 will be mysteriously forgotten about

    I'm all for making the game shorter - the last round we played with 4 people lasted at least 3.5 hours. And we only stopped because one person went broke and had to leave.

    But...
    And, unlike in the original version of Monopoly, players are not fighting to own properties – they’re competing to buy brands, such as Coca-Cola and McDonald’s.

    :(

    I think some reviews will like it, and some are going to be pissed off this isn't X4.

    It's the thematic successor to the Claremont/Miller limited series. Logan as the wandering ronin idea. The plots aren't the same, but a lot of the ideas pop up. And the scale of the villians is smaller. Logan vs Yakuza. Logan fighting people with swords. It really isn't a movie about saving the world, it's about him saving himself.

    They are. Kinda. In a very X-Men kind of way. The next movie is based on Days of Future Past. And with X-Men time travel they can use it to reset the bits of the series they need to. Also make First Class and X1/2/3 work together. And The Wolverine has a teaser scene for it.

    Yeah. The new Wolverine movie has Jean dead, Logan is upset about killing her and that is the sum total of the references to X3.

    I'm sure there's a way, but right now:

    ClassIMade* pClassIMade = new ClassIMade[x][y]; = NO

    And I keep running into these sorts of things and it's super annoying.

    (I am entirely serious in this inquiry, though there's a good chance after a single sentence I will say "oh nevermind I get it now")

    Well, in C++, references mean something else but what I'm referring to is like when some languages (Java, C#, Python) say: "NO POINTERS TO MEMORY" and refer to objects and arrays by a sort of ID number called a reference that doesn't mean anything in particular and you can't do math with it, but acts as like, a ticket stub to refer to an object.
