    No, I cannot change course, paid cash, movers brought all the big stuff already.  I even have all the furniture in place, although no art or photos on the walls yet.

    socrates63 got a reaction from Sabertooth in PSA: AtariAge "last chance" sale. Get 'em while you can.   
    I’m a bit sad to see this happen. Seeing talented people attempting to duplicate arcade classics on the venerable 2600 was always a fun watch and play. The activity always brought a lot of buzz to the community and 2600 platform. Oh well, nothing lasts forever.
    I hope we will see more original works as a result of this.

    This was bound to happen at some point as many of the games are unlicensed/derivative works.
    I just picked up 4 that have been on my "to get" list.

    Right now I’m just working, Young. But in August I go off to college. It’s kind of scary but kind of nice to be on my own.

    Happy belated birthday! Time really does fly. When I joined here I had just ended my freshman year. Now I’m not even in high school anymore. It’s crazy.

    socrates63 reacted to RickR in I just finished watching the first episode of The Sandman on Netflix, and my reaction   
    I will agree with you on that initial Batman.  I watched the whole early series with my kids a few years ago.  That one is visually stunning, but absolutely thin in plot and concept.  Your eyes will love it, your brain will cry foul.  Michael Keaton does a great job, but the part that really bothers me is that the Batman cowl doesn't allow any neck movement. 
    "Wednesday" seems more like a mix of "Edward Scissorhands" and "Pee Wee's Big Adventure" in spirit.  I don't think this is much of a spoiler, but the main monster looks a lot like "Large Marge" to me.

    Ah, that partly explains why I like it so much 🙂 I love Tim Burton movies (with the exception of the Michael Keaton Batman movie although I should give it a second chance. I think 30+ years is enough time to have gotten over the shock of seeing Bruce Wayne with a receding hairline.).
