Daniel,
While I think I'll enjoy the fictional "Noah" movie when it comes on on the disk, I am tired of hearing it every time I click on a new thread.

I must have heard it 12-16 times in the last 10 minutes.

I especially like when I can hear it in stereo, time shifted by about .5 seconds as the side and bottom adds load at slightly different times.

Thanks buddy for taking care of it.
Don't call me as I'm going to mute the PC for now and won't hear you. :-)

maybe God is trying to tell you something.
Civil War reenactment is LARPing for people with no imagination.

Daniel,

My wife and I saw the film last weekend, and ponied up the bucks for an IMAX showing. The special effects were interesting, but I felt very little for the characters in the film. The whole thing felt very "average". It's probably worth it for a couple bucks for a single streaming, but I wouldn't pay much.

We had looked at the ratings at Rotten Tomatoes, and thought it funny that the professional reviewers gave it a 76, while visitors to the site gave it 48. Guess I'm going to trust the visitors to the site, more than the professional movie reviewers from now on!

It's amazing to me that you haven't learned that there's a big disconnect between most movie reviewers and most movie viewers. I've only run into one reviewer whom I trust, and for me, he's been right on every movie he's reviewed. He's Michael Medved.
A good answer is easier with a clear question giving the make and model of everything.

Some of my best friends with multiple aligned interests can't agree on a lot of movies.

I watch movies for the pure entertainment value, damn the story line; to a degree.
I really liked Law Abiding Citizen and most recently Ender's Game.
Some of my friends poke so many holes in the movie story line, no wonder they can't enjoy them.

I would recommend that if you insist on using Ad blocking software here, that you send Daniel some money. Those Ad's are how Daniel makes the money, to keep this place running. Without the Ad revenue, or some other revenue source, this place goes away.

So, if you like RC, support Daniel, by either not blocking Ad's, or by sending him some $'s.

I use about 15-25 different devices. I've installed the gizmo on 1 device to see how it goes.

I disable all annoying ads by default, but it seems Google is letting this one through anyways (first time since 2003 they've done anything like this). I've located it and blocked it...

And yes, if you block ads you are blocking the only thing keeping this site up and running!

Does anyone know if Adblock Plus has the ability to allow certain sites to display adds.
I love RC and am willing to continue seeing the adds if it means it keeps the forum up.

I have AdBlock Plus disabled for Remote Central.
