Hardrock Cafe Options

Saffy said it would be a good idea to start a bar thread for entertainment :o

I just thought that I should take this opportunity to mention how amazing House is.

[Saffy]

Coincidentally, The DerfSlerf was previously known as The Bar. Perhaps a better name could be in order?

So yes, we have a general video game chat so I'm happy with an entertainment chat. I have no idea how this topic will actually work out though. And I'm not sure what to even discuss yet! *fails*

House is pretty good.

[Pixel]

Well um... What shows does everybody like to watch? Any good books anybody has read recently? Movies in theatres?

The Last Airbender was HORRIBLE but I'm so happy I went to see it. Not quite as bad as Dragonball Evolution but still worth seeing. "So bad it's good" is in full effect.

The last book I read cover-to-cover for my own purposes (read: not school) was called The Hypochondriac's Pocket Guide to Horrible Diseases You Probably Already Have.

[Saffy]

I'm still reading through The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy series, where I'm on the fourth book. I haven't bothered to read in a while now though, which I keep meaning to do.

The Last Airbender sounds very disappointing, though I admit I would have liked to see it myself. Oh well, I plan to see Inception tomorrow though.

[Darth-Paper-Boy]

Is this a good name?

[Pixel]

Oh yeah? I heard it's very good but I don't even know what it's about (somebody told me, but I forget (as I did most of the rest of that evening)).

One of my favourite books, It's Kind of a Funny Story, is get its own movie :) I'm thrilled, I've been waiting for years.

Edit: I had thought of Hard Rock Cafe as a potential name but didn't know where copyrights came into effect :p

that just made my day

[Saffy]

Yes, Darth, that name will do nicely. Too bad the restaurant isn't all that special - in terms of food.

I just thought that I should take this opportunity to mention how amazing House is.

House M.D.?

Double-checking to make sure it's not some movie I've never heard off.

Yes. Yes, it is awesome. The early seasons in particular.

[Saffy]

I've only seen a few random episodes of House, but I can't complain.

Yay, Pixel, that's amusing :) We go from Cafe to Hardrock Cafe. I am amused.

[Pixel]

House is great. I own all 5 seasons on DVD and will get 6 on release day if I can :)

@Crystal: I do like the earlier seasons, but season 4 is my favourite. I liked the early seasons a lot better too at first, but I kind of fell in love with the new team (as well as Amber and Cole, it's a shame they couldn't stick around) and season 4 gives a good balance :)

It's a good show. I may or may not be obsessed.

[Saffy]

I miss watching CSI at night with Pippa and others where I'd fall asleep on the couch. Those were good nights.

[Crystal Talian]

I honestly can't keep track of which season is which in live action shows. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/lalaexdee.gif)

When I say, "earlier seasons" I'm referring to before House went into rehab. The show just seemed to get kind of sissy after that. House stopped acting like a real jerk, it focused more on character development more, and it just wasn't as fun anymore. We did not appreciate the change.

"We" being my mother and I. =3

[Pixel]

So by earlier seasons you mean 1-5, the current season being #6 :p Usually when I hear "earlier seasons" I imagine when he had his old team as opposed to the new one.

CSI is pretty good. As I read that post I was listening to Won't Be Fooled Again :p

[Crystal Talian]

Seasons one through five, yes.

I could care less who's on House's team, so long as House is House. =3

In the latest season, he's hardly House, anymore. ='(

[Pixel]

I can't really get a good feel for season 6 yet. I'll marathon it when it comes out and see what I think. It's hard to get a big-picture view when I'm basing my opinion on 22 episodes starting 10 months ago, instead of every other season (I watch 2-3 episodes a day usually, but I haven't watched any today).

I'm worried House/Cuddy being official is going to ruin the show. The only thing I really like about them as a pairing is their UST and constant bickering/House making crude sexual jokes. I don't see how that's going to work in a relationship.

[Crystal Talian]

I stopped watching the sixth season about halfway through. It was in the same timeslot as my class and I kept forgetting to tape it. >_>

I wasn't really into it, anyway. I missed House being a jerk too much.

Although, if were gonna talk about stuff I miss . . . I miss the show, Pushing Daisies. That was terrific! It was also short-lived.

[Saffy]

Pushing Daisies! Kyle kept trying to get me to watch it. I liked the show, but we didn't finish the first episode.

[Crystal Talian]

Pushing Daisies was a spectacular show! It was my favorite show, it probably still is.

I don't why I enjoyed the morbid humor so much. The way they killed people was so creative and funny. The acting was wonderful. I loved the conversations that went on among the characters. The romance was beautiful, so in love and unable to touch! Jim Dale tied it all together with perfect whisical narration! <3

[Saffy]

Pushing Daises has been on my list of items to buy for a long time now. I look forward to watching it :]

Also, I have the full version of their cover of "Birdhouse in Your Soul".

[Crystal Talian]

Did they release that on DVD? I'll have to check the library, I missed a few episodes . . .

You know Kristen Chenowith played Glinda in the original opening of the play Wicked? All the more reason to love the show. <3
