Ambush Bug donkey punches SUCKER PUNCH!
Have you ever wondered what goes on in the mind of a stripper as she sashays her tight little booty up on stage in front of leering old men and rowdy frat boys?
Me neither.
But Zach Snyder obviously does. He is so interested that he has centered an entire film on the quandary. Much like the main characters of SUCKER PUNCH who use disassociation to take them to a place much more exciting than their oppressed existence, sitting in the theater and watching the film, I felt the urge to be someplace else as well. SUCKER PUNCH is a loud, gaudy, fetishistic, bombastic piece of cinema. It's also hollow, remedial, and bereft of substance. As the scenes flew by with Michael Bay-ian abandon, as much as I wanted to become invested in the film, as the minutes passed bringing me closer to the time for the credits to roll, all I could think of was how wrong of a choice this director is for a SUPERMAN film.
Let me start with the good stuff. SUCKER PUNCH looks cool. The hotties are hot. Their tight fitting Sailor Moon garb looks sassy on their tighter young forms. There is a lot of action for the girls to do and the 'splosion crowd to drool over with numerous expansive set pieces filmed against a green screen. The film has everything that should make for a movie all of us fanboys and girls should swoon over: big guns, hot chicks, zombie clockwork soldiers, flying flaming dragons, giant samurais, Scott Glenn, 'sploding automations that look like extras from I, ROBOT, silver swords, Carla Gugino's pooper (though unfortunately covered by a toight skirt), mecha robot armor, 'sploding blimps, swooping airplanes, kung fu, and did I mention 'splosions? The effects are pretty outstanding and though the fact that 88% this film was probably filmed on a sound stage is pretty evident, Snyder has some fantastic backdrops to plop some action into.
Another good thing? Well, I thought Blondie (played by raven haired cutie and HIGH SCHOOL MUSICAL star Vanessa Hudgens…see she's a brunette named Blondie—I-RON-EEEEEEEE!!!) was pretty damn smokin'. Then again I always was kinda partial to brunettes.
The other good thing in this film is that Snyder doesn't make Carla Gugino wear old age make-up in SUCKER PUNCH as he did in WATCHMEN, though he does make her use a horrible accent. Gugino as always is pants-stiffeningly good though, so there's that.
The Gugino factor aside, everything else in this film is as vacant as the set of TWO AND A HALF MEN (too soon?). Cool without substance just sucks, and that's what this film is. After a dialog-less montage set to nu rock music opening the film (something Snyder did much more effectively in WATCHMEN), Snyder decides to hang the feather-weight plot on the scavenger hunt motif where our heroine has to gather a number of weapons and items in order to escape the mental hospital she has been put in by her abusive father. How is she supposed to do this? Well, our little heroine Baby Doll (played by the hollow eyed Emily Browning) has the seductive power of dance! Turns out, Baby Doll can shake her tiny little pa-toot and it makes everyone go gaga. The audience is told this, but Snyder never really shows us Baby Doll's smooth moves. All she does is shimmy slowly from side to side, the crappy remake tune of the minute volumes up and then we are transported to another fantasy world disassociation. We never see this dance at all. Maybe Snyder filmed it and realized how ridiculous it is that in her mind she's fighting giant samurais and robot train conductors, but in reality she's making like Shakira on roofie juice. To add insult to injury, Snyder doesn't even try to make these fantastic scenarios match metaphorically with the real life actions going on in the scavenger hunt. It's just the fantasy world sequence where the chicks are in some kind of faux danger, then somehow, the item is attained through Baby Doll's distracting moves off screen. The audience never gets to make up their own minds whether this dance ignites the loin-fire as every character boasts in the film, but I'll bet there's a cut somewhere with the moves interspersed in between the fantasy scenes that looks as idiotic as it sounds.
Snyder has a tendency to pick very annoying music for his films. It was somewhat annoying in 300 with the out of place guitar growling. He amped it up in WATCHMEN with the uncomfortably long love scene set to Leonard Cohen in the OwlMobile. In SUCKER PUNCH he just reaches deep into his trousers and goes full-on balls-out making probably 55% of this film into a music video. If that wasn't annoying enough, the music is remake nu metal versions of classic songs like the Pixies "Where is My Mind" and the Eurythmics "Sweet Dreams" (boy, that hasn't been remade enough…). When a song is used to amp up the mood of the scene, I can dig it. When it's crammed into numerous scenes over and over with the finesse of a proctologist with elephantitis of the index finger, it's…kinda noticeable and definitely uncomfortable to experience.
SUCKER PUNCH really falls apart when it tries to wrap things up in a glittery moralistic bow at the end. And though I won't ruin the ending here, it's a groaner that is telegraphed pretty much from the beginning. Anyone who has seen any movie in the last ten to twenty years will be able to figure out the "wicked sick" twist at the end. OK, one hint: the film is about disassociation.
Guys, if you go see this film this weekend, the terrorists win. All you are doing is confirming the "brain trust" powers that be at WB that Snyder is the man for SUPERMAN. Maybe with Nolan on his ass, there may be a sliver of hope for something halfway decent for Snyder's Man of Steel, but from what I saw in the ride on the short bus that was SUCKER PUNCH, the guy can make a scene pretty and cool looking, but couldn't add substance to a film if he were armed with a shovel, a syringe, and a bucket of KY.
I'm like you. I saw the commercials to this one filled with "Awww, cool!" moments and thought I was in for a fun ride. Apart from one scene where Snyder pretty effectively uses the tried and true "slo mo/speed up" fight technique he's used in every film since 300, the film laid there dead on the theater floor like a stripper's soul. SUCKER PUNCH is full of glam and glitz and fetishes galore and I know some folks will love the film just for that. Much like strippers themselves, SUCKER PUNCH wants your money this weekend (SPOILER: they're not into you, all they see are dollar signs), but as it bumps and grinds up there on the screen, if you look closely into its eyes you'll see that any semblance of substance has gone far, far away.

Nolan needs to Direct Superman
by TheJudger
Seriously. I was saying Zman was wrong from the mutherfucking get-go. No one wants a fucking origin tale either unless it's completely new and original. We know where superman comes from why he's here and why he chooses to fight for us. Like the Hobbit. WB needs to grow some balls and pressure Nolan into directing. Fuck I'd be down with his brother directing.

Donner made the ultimate Superman
by kwisatzhaderach
Why bother to top it? It's impossible. And Snyder hasn't a hope in hell of doing anything with the material. Superman is all about SOUL, something Snyder's films are completely lacking.
March 25, 2011, 7:10 a.m. CST
Thank you for confirming what I already suspected.
by rbatty024
Snyder should just go back to directing music videos. That's obviously what is most interested in. God knows he can't tell a cohesive narrative.

why is every review about superman?
by herman
Again, who gives a fuck about superman, every review of this movie is about how they don't want Synder to direct it. The movie was fun and entertaining, but no one gives a fuck, only that the movie bombs so Synder gets thrown off superman. Again, who gives a fuck about superman, that movie has already been fucked up multiple times.

I'll form my own opinion on Sucker Punch, thank you very much, but if 300 and Watchmen are any indication of what Snyder will bring to Superman (meaning making use of good source material, script and cast), then Superman will rock.

donner did not make the ultimate Superman movie
by SupermanIsMyGod
Can we just squash that myth forever? Sure, Chris Reeve gives the greatest superhero film performance ever, and Marlon Brando was good even though he wanted them to film a bagel or suitcase bc no one knows what Kryptonians looked like... But every scene with Ned Beatty kills the movie dead. Lex Luthor lives in the sewers with a hot receptionist and wears a wig. The "Can You Read My Mind" sequence. There's a list just as long (longer) of the absolutely perfect moments in the film as well, and I love that flick as much as anyone, but enough with the notion that Superman is some perfect superhero film and the end all be all of Man of Steel flicks.

I have been a Zach defender....
by DangerDave
but I am starting to slide into the darkside. Watchmen...why amazing in the way the story was told, left me feeling, well...nothing at the end. A piece of chewing gun that deleived a burst of flavor and then wears off and at the end you are hungry for something consistant. 300, same effect..the bite was just not there. I do fear for Superman. I hope that someone at the studio learns from this and enforces some sort of control over him, so that he can produce a visually stunning Superman movie...with no of the hollowing Snyder Effect. Based on my gut feelings and the dogshit reviews that I have read, I think that I will wait until it's a Redbox rental.
March 25, 2011, 8:24 a.m. CST
First of all, who the FUCK are you, Ambush Bug?!
by antonphd
And why the fuck should anyone here take your opinion about whether or not Snyder should direct Superman seriously? I know I don't. You think Superman is a character with depth that Synder can't properly portray because he's all flash and no substance? Are you fucking kidding? Superman is the white bread of superheroes. Nobody can tell a good story about him except about him fucking dying, because he's a static character. Synder will do what nobody has managed to do yet with Superman... make him look awesome with cool looking action and effects. Which is perfect since that is the only reason anybody likes Superman. You over reached man. Whoever the fuck you are.

How about some love for a film as we get to know new reviewers.
by antonphd
Reading a review about how much you hate a film as an introduction is like telling a first date about having been molested as kid. Let's have some good times first before we get to the pathos. It sounds like Sucker Punch is a miss, but at least it looks like Snyder swung for the fences. Which is more than can be said about 99% of directors in the last 36 years of my life.

Who wanted to see this movie for "substance?"
by KongMonkey
Is that what the initial draw to the flick was upon seeing the trailers? Young hot chicks in kinky outfits fighting all manner of fantasy thingamadoos, hmmmm, I wonder if the big samurai she's fighting in the preview represents adult oppression against rebellious teenage angst, cause thats what I really wanna see outta this! Haven't seen the movie, probably won't see the movie, because most people like me saw the movie for what it was before it even came out. Fetish eye candy. Enjoy the retina rape.

by Stegman84
Dude, I seriously wouldn't be throwing stones if I were you. I mean congratulations for being paid I guess, but every comic I've read of yours, not to put too fine a point on it, fucking sucked. That is if you even got paid, given that, apart from usually being utter dreck, Bluewater Comics is dodgy as fuck in the way that it treats their 'talent' even at the best of times... I'm not saying Sucker Punch is any good, but to spew such bile when you have put out far worse (and far more derivative) stuff yourself - and even use this so called review to publicise that fact - well that seems pretty fucking slimy to me all in all. People in glass houses...

Snyder's Superman will be on the extreme other side of the spectrum across from Superman Returns
by The Krypton Kid
Superman Returns was slow and contemplative. Superman: Man of Steel will be ultra sleek glossy and so fast there's little if any time for soul-searching. But nothing will ever touch the original, which is the ultimate masterpiece of superhero films. So fitting that the greatest superhero film ever is a depiction of Superman, the greatest superhero ever.

by darthwaz1
Seriously, the movies are too jokey, Reeve is awesome, but almost everything else is wrong! Luthor is reduced to a bumbling schemer with a a couple dumb lackeys? wtf?? We need a version that gets the charaters & material right... not just the main character right! Also, Supes powers in those films are ridiculous, the only way to make his character relate-able is to tone back his powers and make him struggle...turning the earth backwards is just f'ing dumb..
March 25, 2011, 9:54 a.m. CST
by MakNeil
Christopher Nolan not only will not, but should not direct Superman because if you take away everything that makes Superman 'Super'–like Nolan did for Batman–you get just a 'man.' That being said, I have always been a Marvel fan first, though I do get the appeal of Superman. Instead, they should have went with Tony Scott, who can actually tone down the hyperkinetic shite when the need suits him and tell a human story, something Zach Snyder appears to have a bit of difficulty with. Another plus for Tony Scott is that I have not seen any film of his that over-relies on blue/green screen, which always feels like it's being filmed in a studio somewhere because...it is!

You can all call him a hack as much as you want, but I think that man is an amazing visual artist. Let me repeat that for emphasis, VISUAL artist, not writer. Superman will be amazing, only if Nolan and goyer write a great script.

by doom master
Whats up with all the AICN hate over this movie? Methinks fanboys/fannerds were expecting more balls and cock in this flick like 300 than vag...Ergo it comes off as more of a chick flick/girl power music video. I can see why theyd all hate it...Theres no cock n balls to relate to! Still, just sit back and enjoy the T&A, ignore the herpderp feminine touches, and at least appreciate the fact that there's a bunch of cute chicks playing a video game in the heads or slowly play pocket pool while in your seat...Have at you!

....pulled it in and out of this film's pooper, and then punched this film in the head just as he was about to cum so that this film's sphincter would tighten up allowing Ambush Bug to experience the maximum amount of pleasure as he completed his anal adventure? <p> Is this what you're saying? Because that makes it sound like Ambush Bug enjoyed himself.

My dream director for Superman would be Roberto Benigni
by TheJudger
"Life is Beautiful" kills me... I know he's a very strange choice, and I don't care. He's extremely smart, funny, and all of his films have heart. I get that some people are dying for some epic popcorn action. To me- That action when it happens needs to be gripping suspenseful stuff, not oh wow eye candy crap. Superman needs to be dimensional. He needs to have a soul. If I was running shop. I would fight tooth and nail to get Roberto in as the director. I'd make sure he loved the character first. I don't see how he couldn't. Superman is universal. He's not America's hero. He's the worlds hero. He will understand the whole I don't belong stuff firsthand, as well as what is so attractive about america and it's culture.

Saw it last night...
by TDH1138
OK. I will go out on a limb and say I enjoyed it and I would watch it again and again. Why? Because it's essentially a fun, mindless popcorn flick with a shitload of action, hot girls (I couldn't take my eyes off Browning... lordy lord, she's beautiful), Guns, Cyber-Samurai, Zombie Nazi's, Orcs, Dragons... you name it, it was in there. It was a "what's what" of top searches on Deviant-Art... it's the absolute best parts of the between level movies in a killer video game. Now, with all that said... the story wasn't super-strong, but there still was a story. Awesome, No? But we're in this type of flick for the visuals. We're not in it to see an Oscar worthy performance. As for Superman and Snyder directing. There is still hope because he has a visual style that could play well. Also keep in mind we have two things in our favor... Nolan's Story w/ Goyer's Script and Nolan producing. If Nolan is looking over your shoulder, there's a good chance when something's not working, Nolan will call him out on it. I wasn't the only one leaving that theater last night satisfied. My wife thought it was loud, but didn't hate it. It was what it was and I was entertained. the reality is, it wasn't a remake ("Arthur" = BLASPHEMY!!!) and it wasn't a shitty spoof movie. it was somewhat "original" and I liked it for what it was.

Good review, Ambush Bug
by MC-909
Direct, concise, witty, no personal baggage. A lot of reviewers throw in jokes just for the hell of it and wind up coming across like a jerk. But Ambush, you comic-book-guy you, you managed to be informative and funny without being pretentious and snarky. Congrats on a well-written review. And another thing... I don't read comics. Don't really have any interest to start either. But I always enjoy you guys' comic articles. Keep it up.

Just because someone makes a bad movie one time doesn't make them completely unqualified to or incapable of making a good movie later. The long and short of it is that, even if Snyder is the worst thing to ever happen to anything like everyone has been saying over the past two days, Chris Nolan is not going to let Snyder mess up Superman. That said, in spite of all the terrible reviews I'm going to go see this move anyway. Who knows? I might like t.

Saw It Last Night At Midnight Screening

After my UOFA Wildcats stomped ass on duke.I really enjoyed it for what it was.the story wasn't some amazing introspective life altering tale but it was a damn fun movie.and my god how can u be a hedro male and not enjoy watching these 5 hot pices of ass?i loved the music that's definitely one thing i give zack snyder props on is his music selection from this to dawn of the dead.Till this day I still think the intro of dawn of the dead with Johnny Cash's Man comes around is one of the best in cinema history.I think the dude has lots of talent and really have enjoyed all his movies. Especially watchmen which after my first watch wasn't really impressed with granted it was a bootleg copy and the sound was shit but after a second watch i felt it would go onto to be an underated classic.My suggestion if you're looking for a fun visually stunning film with lot's of hot chicks go watch it.

I saw an interview he did when WATCHMEN was released, and he sounded like a dumb ignorant fool. He barely has a vocabulary above a young teen. An ignorant dumb young teen. Hell, his audio comentary in 300 is just him talking about CGI and NOTHING ELSE! What a royal assclown this Snyder fool is.

CHOPPAH reviews SUCKER PUNCH:
by THE_CHOPPAH
SUCKER PUNCH is conceptually alluring but laborious and visionless. And it is a nightmare for audiences looking for coherent fiction. It's hard to connect with a movie when it tries so hard to fool you; is this a dream, is it not, is it a dream within a dream? Who cares? Just commit to something and get on with it. A crushing bore. Snyder's latest is so slow and so confusing that you may actually fall asleep. Or wish you were really dreaming and could wake up and dream another movie. If you had to explain it to someone--and I'd wish you luck in doing so--you might say it's sort of like Charlie's Angels, but with Nazi zombies, airplane-eating dragons, and whole cities in flame. Only someone who never saw--or appreciated--Dark City would be able to call it visionary. What is the point of having an imagination, I ask you, if the only thing that can be imagined is mayhem, perpetrated without regard for even the appearance of human life? The story--about girls in a mental institution who detach from reality--often sidetracks in favor of cool visuals that don't necessarily make sense. None of this prattling drivel adds up to one iota of cogent or convincing logic. You never know who anyone is, what their goals are, who they work for or what they're doing. By convoluting the various planes of experience, by overlapping and obscuring ostensible realities and ostensible dreams, Snyder deprives us the opportunity of investing emotionally in any of it. If you recall the scene in DAHMER where Jeremy Renner as the deranged killer drills holes into his victims' heads, you'll know what watching this Freudian claptrap of a thriller is like. SUCKER PUNCH is a rather juvenile brain-teaser lacking an effective emotional core but bursting with cool visuals. Unlike the most powerful dreams it doesn't stick with you. If the career of Zack Snyder is any indication, we've entered an era in which movies can no longer be great. They can only be awesome, which isn't nearly the same thing. A false dawn.

Re: Man of Steel
by Trancer
The difference is, SUCKER PUNCH was Snyder's vehicle from start to finish. He created it from the ground up, with no "guiding hand" to keep him in line. With Man of Steel, he's filming a script by Goyer and Nolan. 'Nuff said.

Sounds about right...
by Anti-fanboy
Though my reaction will probably be along the lines of enjoying it for the superficial stuff, despite the apparent lack of a cohesive story and soul. The emotionally-hollow part doesn't surprise me, based on Snyder's previous work (he's barely a notch above McG, and about even with Bay in the gravitas department), but I'm a little surprised he fucked up the narrative. For Superman, with Nolan and Co. shepherding, I'm less concerned about story, and just hoping we don't get more CG-backdrop shit -- I want Dark Knight-level verisimilitude.

INCEPTION is SUCKER PUNCH with 10 times the exposition and one-sixteenth the visual imagination.
by THE_CHOPPAH
SCOTT PILGRIM is a feat of fanwank cocksuckery.
"The film has everything that should make for a movie all of us fanboys and girls should swoon over: big guns, hot chicks, zombie clockwork soldiers, flying flaming dragons, giant samurais." There is no plural in Japanese, it's one or many samurai, just like you don't pluralize ninja, sensei, hanshi, or any other word we would in English.
March 25, 2011, 1:22 p.m. CST
nice review, choppah
by Frank Conniff
I also didn't much care for Inception. Even the dream worlds were dull and pedestrian. I'm afraid that if I see Scott Pilgrim I might punch someone or break something expensive in a fit of blind rage brought about my my hatred of the annoying characters. I have similar concerns about Sucker Punch. At least it doesn't devolve into a big budget A-Team episode, like that movie The A-Team.

Remember back in the day when getting a stupid, fun movie meant getting TOTAL RECALL?
by Monroville
(sigh) have some people's expectations dropped just that low that there is a defence of this? <p> I'm not going to reiterate what everyone else here has already said other than it seems that this is a fight between the value of cool visuals over a coherent story. <p> The bottom line is: what is the point if there is no point? Even INDEPENDENCE DAY operated within the logic of it's own world and premise, and the threats within the movie were real to the characters and meant something. Same thing with TOTAL RECALL. Hell, even COMMANDO! But when you know right off the bat that none of what you are seeing matters, how can it, no matter how cool it looks? <p> NOT TO MENTION (spoiler) when you kill off your main character at the end of the movie for no other reason than to throw in a 70's movie ending (and justify the movie title), and then (insult to injury) throw out a "oh, this was really someone else's story the whole time, even though we were with this other character the whole movie)"... you have to wonder how in the hell did Zack get the money to make this, much less if anyone read the script before green-lighting it. I mean, did Hollywood decide to make this movie the same way the democrats passed the health care bill (we'll fund it now and read it later...oops)?

by Subtitles_Off
Every week some stupid knob pulls a version of this out of his pocket to defend the week's crap blockbuster. It never meant anything. But it's getting way-played out. Can we mix it up a little? Snyder aimed for the uprights. Snyder got nothing but net. Snyder groped the lightweight's junk like a horny heavyweight.

subtitles_off - i've seen it and snyder knocked it out of the park
by antonphd
he also hit it over the heads of most movie goers. but considering the subject that isn't a bad thing. in my opinion... to really understand this movie you have to understand what it is to survive trauma. as a foster kid who lived through 18 years of hell... i am amazed that snyder have the bravery to make this film. it's not aimed at a main stream audience. it's aimed right at victims. i was choking up at the end. and the more i think about this movie the more it resonates with me. now, i'm not saying this film is A Thin Red Line, but it's in the same company. it's not entertainment... it's a meditation.

by Holodigm
then i remembered that i read part of it, and stopped right at the two and a half men joke. and you know what? exact same place i stopped this time too. yeesh.
Good review! Just as I expect from the film. After seeing this movie and not liking it, in the end, the gag was on ME. I was the one who got SUCKER PUNCHED! Lols! But in all fairness, I only want to check it out and make my own opinion out of it. Zack's got a good rep when it comes to visuals and interpreting the yarns of others, but sorry to say he failed on this one. And worse, its HIS own story. Strike one, Zack. He's now at that level with Frank Miller's version of The Spirit. This movie is also a fine example of the Imax/3d culture that has been going on right now, where studios abandons great storytelling of cinema's past and replaces it with MTV style visuals with incoherent storytelling. Mark my words, this way of thinking will not last long.

Pan's Labyrinth And/Or Brazil As "Re-imagined" By A 13 Year Old Chronic Masturbator With Unconscious Misogyny Issues He Mistakenly Thinks Are Empowering

Ladies and gentlemen: SUCKER PUNCH. The good: Hawt chicks and cool video game cut scene sequences. The bad: Everything else. The ugly: The creepy misogyny pretending to be empowerment.

Anybody who comes to this site is supposedly a film geek. How anyone can consider themselves as such, and not love "Sucker Punch boggles the mind. Honestly, what's not to love? Any one of the short fantasy sequences has more action, better special effects, and cooler moves than any other fantasy movie does IN IT'S ENTIRETY, EVER. All of you fake ass, impostor "geeks" who are bashing this film should be ashamed of yourselves. This movie represents everything you have ever asked for, or wanted to see. And it is absolutely incredible.

In this quaint little town, on a quaint little street, lies a quaint little restaurant.
The Butler Eat'n Haus, my friend J.J. McCoy said, is the place to get beef and noodles. And with a name like that in a town like this, how could it not be?
The dish that McCoy – part of a large contingent of regulars who work at nearby Nucor Fastener in St. Joe – loves is the Wednesday special. And it really isn't anything special in terms of makeup, but that is kind of what makes it special. It has tender, stringy bits of roast with thin noodles cooked until just al dente in only pure broth, said Robin Helbert, who owns and runs the restaurant with her husband.
Add a heap of mashed potatoes and a side of green beans, and you will be taken back in time, perhaps to your mom's or grandma's dinner table. The Amish-style baked goods from Dutch Heritage Baking and Catering in Spencerville will also take you back.
The women who run the bakery used to work at the Eat'n Haus. Their wheat and white breads on the salad bar were fantastic – moist and soft with that distinctive yeast flavor only homemade bread has – and, yes, there were pies.
Lots of pies.
Thirteen pies, to be exact.
The most impressive pie was the lemon meringue. I am not a big fan of lemon pie and even less of a fan of meringue because, honestly, when isn't whipped cream better? The answer is when it is stacked up next to Dutch Heritage's meringue, which was fluffy and light but still sweet and somewhat rich.
I wished the meringue topped some of the other pies – namely the dark brown butterscotch or the lightly whipped but still nutty peanut butter – but lemon was it.
There were also Dutch Heritage cookies and other baked goods at the register to take with you. They are sold separately and can't be included on your bills, so if you are paying with plastic, take a little extra cash.
Also beware that on beef-and-noodles Wednesday, you won't find any cookies. Helbert said Dutch Heritage delivers on Monday and Thursday, so they are always gone by Wednesday.
The Eat'n Haus makes its share of homemade goodies, too, and there was no better place to find them than on the salad and soup bar. All of the salad dressings are made from scratch, as is the slaw and macaroni, potato, broccoli-bacon and kidney bean salads. The shell macaroni was my favorite with its creamy, sweet dressing and diced red onions and pickles.
The soups I tried – cheesy potato, chili and cream of chicken – were all satisfying, but the cream of chicken was easily my favorite. Kind of a forgotten soup outside of casserole recipes, it was rich and somewhat buttery with big chunks of chicken and only needed a dash of pepper to make it perfect.
The Eat'n Haus also puts care into its Friday night staple, all-you-can-eat fish and frog legs. The restaurant offers pollock and cod, each with different house-made coatings. The sweeter, flakier pollock is dredged in a dry mix and the meatier, moister, unctuous cod – which, for my money, is the better choice – is coated in a wet batter. The frog legs are coated in a combination of batter and breading, and they, too, were worth the trip.
I would be remiss if I didn't suggest taking some of that fish, a couple slices of the homemade bread and a squirt of homemade tartar sauce to make a fantastic fish sandwich.
There was little I didn't like. The patty for my patty melt was mediocre at best, but the caraway-dotted rye bread and use of American and Swiss cheeses improved it immensely. The side order of hash browns, however, were not crisped enough and could have been cooked in butter or had some of the grilled onions from that patty melt because they were basically flavorless.
The service at the Butler Eat'n Haus was impeccable and even rose above normal expectations. For example, one server brought me ice water with the coffee I asked for with dessert just in case I wanted something cold to drink, too. Another was not just nice to my kids, but she went out of her way to talk to them and marvel at the crayon artwork on their paper placemats.
I guess that is the kind of treatment one should expect from such a quaint little restaurant on a quaint little street in a quaint little town.

Call of Juarez: Gunslinger patch adds FOV fix
Call of Juarez: Gunslinger was the latest in a string of titles to release on PC with a narrow default Field of View (FOV) and no option to alter it. This was causing some players to suffer from motion sickness, and others to suffer from aesthetic sickness.
All credit to Techland, then, for pushing out a patch that allows players to change the default FOV and remove the (previously mandatory) black borders that surround the in-game screen at all times.
Applying them is a bit complication, but it seems like you need to find a "video.scr" file, most likely at the following location – c:\Users\YourName\AppData\Local\techland\cojgunslinger\out\Settings\ Open it up in notepad and add the following options at the bottom:
ForcedHorzFov(95) – you can choose values between 80 and 110
DisableScreenBorder() – don't bother with this one unless you want to remove the borders, obviously
Update 1.01 should apply itself to Gunslinger through Steam and makes the following changes:
- hit indicator is now disabled in True West difficulty mode
- new option to disable crosshair regardless of the difficulty mode
- new option to adjust mouse sensitivity on duels
- new settings available in video.scr file
- additional checks before posting scores to the leaderboards
- additional credits
- fixed problems with audio on 7.1 output configurations
- fixed crashes related to using 7.1 audio configurations
- fixed potential crash when using long Steam nicknames with non-latin characters
- leaderboards now correctly display nicks with non-latin characters
- patched up heavy stuttering when using certain keyboard and mouse models
- workaround for blocks when booting the game on systems that have problems with video playback
- tweaked enemy behavior on duels to avoid duels with no conclusion
- fixed HUD gadget in Arcade mode sometimes not displaying "versus" friend's name
- fixed navigation and centering in My Score and Friends leaderboards
- tweaks and fixes in the Japanese localization

"Too bursty..."
There is a phrase i do not associate with Warlocks. Rogues & Mages? Yes for them, but not us Locks.
"Free HK" or "Kill Me first I'm squishy and cant get away..."
Those are phrases that i associate with Warlocks.
I personally didnt see this coming and the G.N.E.R.D. rage that i am not spewing onto this post proves it.
This blog misses a more important hotfix on Ignis, which is the melee pot bug. Blue post on this also at MMO champion
"There are reports that players are being melee'd by Ignis while in the slag pot, and on the charge before a player is placed in the slag pot.
The hotfix for this has been deployed. The hotfix also corrected an issue where Offtanks in 25 player versions of the encounter could be put in the slag pot. That should no longer be possible in either 10 or 25 player raids. "

Edit: This post will be 3 years old in a few weeks. But, since I'm too busy to do a new one, I decided to repost it. I made it private not long after it was published.
What do hybrid cars, dogs, and California have in common? Ok, let's take it a few steps at a time.
- Hybrid cars use a combination of electricity and something else (diesel- or gasoline-powered engines) to make cars move.
- Dogs LOVE to ride in cars. (I mean, they always want to stick their noses out the window as if they're absorbing a riot of delicious smells from everywhere.)
- California uses a combination of ways to make electricity. (huh, you ask?)
Ok, I'll explain. Hybrid technology relies on the car's engine to not only make it go but also to charge all those batteries. Sure, Toyota has added in regenerative breaking to help with the charging aspects. Plus it uses an electrical motor to help it go, but that's primarily at lower speeds. The electric motors are powered by the batteries. Makes sense, right?
Ok, now here's where California comes into it. If you've ever headed East of San Francisco you've seen them – huge windmills dedicated to generating electricity through wind energy. (Did someone flick on a lightbulb over in that corner? Things seem a tad brighter…or maybe not.)
So, how does Fido help? Well, he (or she, to be equitable about this) loves sticking his/her nose into the wind. That's right, as cars go faster, they, simply by virtue of going, generate a wind. And it's a pretty good wind. Even in town it can be 30-35 miles an hour and double that on the interstates. In Nashville traffic it probably averages 55 mph.
Suppose there was an opening in the hood of a car, with a fine mesh grill over it to stop birds and bugs, that led directly to a wind turbine generator or two attached to the car, merrily generating electricity as the car moved. Well, except for the turbines, we have that now. It's called a grill.
The faster you went, like on an interstate, the more wind (and electricity, by the way) you'd generate. Why, two of those little turbines might be able to power electric motors themselves, giving a wind-powered (ok, wind-supplimented) hybrid vehicle much beter fuel efficiency on the interstates (where the current battery-gas engine versions don't do as well). And even if it didn't generate enough electricity to run the electric motor, it would be recharging the batteries while it's turning. It wouldn't completely recharge the batteries, that would be perpetual motion, which is impossible. But it would extend the range of the vehicle, significantly.
Generating equipment might also need to be moved into the 21st century, like Dyson did with the small motors in his vacuums. After all, not much has been done to the motor or the generator since they were first invented. Minor changes, but no reliance on modern tolerances, methods, super magnets, etc. Combine better generation efficiencies and wind turbine charging systems with the sorts of airflow and turbine design details that people like General Dynamics know about jet engine blade design and you might well have a car that's feasable for a week's worth of daily commuting.
Looking at advances in disparate fields and applying them to entirely different areas to do more than you thought you could is called synergy. This seems to make sense to me. How about you?

The Gift of Know-How: Books.
Steve Kroeter in his book-filled living room.
"One of the terrific things about living in New York is that there are many great bookstores," says Steve Kroeter, founder and editor in chief of Designers & Books.
Launched in 2011, Designers & Books is an advocate for books as an important source of inspiration for creativity, innovation, and invention. Steve and his team publish lists of books that members of the international design community identify as important and formative. We recently turned the tables on Steve and asked him for a list of his favorite books, which led to a discussion about favorite book sellers.
"One of my favorites is the Strand Bookstore, which is a block away from my office," he says. "It's really hard to walk by the Strand and not go in, so I go in there frequently. I always end up discovering books that I didn't know I was looking for."
Steve is also a huge fan of McNally Jackson on Prince Street in SoHo. "I think of it as the perfectly edited bookstore, not just in terms of the inventory of books but also as a bookstore experience. I love their little café and the selection of books is terrific. The selection of magazines is terrific."
When Steve needed a book for his nine-year-old niece, he went to McNally Jackson and the children's book buyer was an ace. "I told her what I was looking for and in a few minutes I went from not knowing what to buy to having more books than I could possibly buy. I love going to a bookstore like that and finding someone who is clearly passionate about books and can answer your questions. They help you find exactly what you want ... what you can never find on your own."

Having a fit of bored nostalgia and watching Merlin pilot. This show is the epitome of adults are useless and their prison is the least secure thing ever. This show is so cute but so embarrassing. And ugh baby Merlin and Gwen run away together you do not need to let this shit make you miserable. At one point Gaius is like "You never cease to amaze me." Yeah, in all 24 hours you have known him?
"How long have you been training to be a prat, my lord?" Yes, good.
But even though this show is so stupid I am so frustrated with the way this story started chasing its own tail. I have never seen the Lancelot du Lac episode or past it but even past s1 it kindof got weird like Merlin is defending the present regime because….? And we're supposed to be against Morgana because? Like I get that it is bad she starts having no regard for innocent lives but that was under the influence of others and she initially fought against that idea.
Idk I like this stupid thing but I like more what s1 seemed to set up than what was.
Lol Slashshipper Dragon. And War Doctor >.<
But I can't help liking it sigh.
So stupid.
"There must be another Arthur because this one is an idiot."
Idk I guess I like the reincarnated fated people thing.
And wow Morgana oblivious. I thought you liked Gwen at this point.
Omg Gwen and Merlin run away you awkward adorable babies.
I also kind of like the completely anachronistic costumes and hair because if you are gonna just have a vague spirit of it then it seems better than trying really hard and failing anyway.
The Welsh singing is really pretty. Gwen from Torchwod.
Also like they don't seem to actually have any procedure or assigned duties. Wtf is the court physician doing at the party working with his ward?
But lol Uther yes sure this is appropriate.
Oh, Gaius you knew from the moment you met him he was a hero but he never ceases to amaze you with his stupidity. Mixed message parenting 101.

"Uptown." The phrase conjures images of sophisticated luxury – timeless elegance with a flavor for the avant-garde. It is fine furnishings and the latest electronics, cool jazz with an equal dose of hot salsa. It's the blending of two colors to create a distinctive new shade. That's the premise behind the Buick Enclave UpTown being introduced at the 2007 Specialty Equipment Market Association Show in Las Vegas. It was created by Rick Bottom Designs of Mendota, Ill.
The literal representation of Buick Enclave UpTown's Ying and Yang is the two-tone paint theme – White Chocolate Pearl on top and Cocoa Metallic on the bottom. The paint is separated and accentuated by the discriminating use of custom chrome trim – the latter complementing the chrome trim found on production Enclaves, including on the front and rear bumper fascias, the grille surround and the renowned portholes. The Enclave Uptown is instantly noticed thanks to its production chrome vertical waterfall grille and Buick tri-shield.
Proving that a luxury crossover can be sporty, Enclave UpTown has been lowered two inches in the front, three inches in the rear and outfitted with 22-inch MOMO wheels and Pirelli tires. The result is a ground-hugging athletic appearance.
Enter Enclave UpTown via the genuine Buick Accessories molded assist steps to take in unparalleled entertainment. Buick's QuietTuning does its best to contain a 2,000-watt Eclipse audio, video and navigation system that pumps out sound through 12 speakers, including two 12-inch subwoofers. To help ensure that the sound stays mainly within the vehicle, Enclave UpTown features additional Hushmat sound-damping material. Bluetooth technology, meanwhile, enables the driver and passengers to stay connected to their world while enjoying Enclave's high level of luxury and comfort – reflected in the handsome Cashmere leather upholstery and Warm Camphor Burl wood trim. Premium floor mats complete the equipment upgrade.
Buick is General Motors premium international brand anchored by North America and China regions. A storied, 104-year-old brand in North America, Buick is also one of the most well-known automobile brands in China with more than 1.3 million Buick owners. Last year, Buick sold more than 300,000 units there and more than 567,000 worldwide, a 17,000-unit increase over 2006. Buick nameplates in North America include the Enclave luxury crossover, Lucerne and LaCrosse entry-luxury sedans. The Buick lineup in China include the LaCrosse and Park Avenue premium sedans, Regal upper-medium sedan, Excelle family and GL8 and FirstLand executive wagons.

I bought these for my son and they are great!
You might recall either a washed-khaki BONOBOS trouser from the days of yore, or a secret society of like-minded gentlemen aimed at secretive and worldly domination. Well, the latter may be dependent on "Simpsons" reruns, but the former has made its triumphant return. Because the BONOBOS Stone Cutters are available once again, and we can say with a stonemason's certainty that few trousers equal them in terms of pure versatility. In fact, we'd bet our bottom dollar, and the mysterious eye-capped pyramid symbol residing upon it, that nary a trouser in your wardrobe will pair as well, or adapt as readily as these pants of light khaki hue. Good for any season, ready for any occasion, the Stone Cutters are truly universal in their appeal. And best of all – no secret handshake or elaborate ritual is needed to gain access. The Stone Cutters are back, better than ever, and only a mouse-click away.
I bought these for my son and they are great!
