It’s Wednesday again, time for our regularly scheduled open discussion post.
As usual – talk about whatever you like as long as it’s related to movies, TV or Screen Rant itself – just remember to play nice.

@790 & Ken J
Will you two please stop getting into a freaking argument on every post? I’m really getting tired of it.
Thanks,
Vic
@Vic
I haven’t said anything to provoke anything… I was here talking about Cpt. America…
@M-Cat
I highly doubt there will be a T5 anytime within the next 5 years, lol.
Sorry Vic but that’s what guys like Ken J generate, conflict…
Ken J thrives on it. He’s all over the site with conflict.
I’m being as kind as possible in dealing with him…
Ken go back to ignoring me,,,
@Vic
Have you seen 2012 yet? If so, do you recommend it?
@Vic
Oh, BTW, you have a GameRant, what about a TrekRant? Oh, forgot, you ready have one: The Star Trek Review.
Apolagies if this has already been posted but does anyo e know why SONY and or EMERALD has (from all appearences) chosen to
NOT SHOW 2012 IN iMAX?
If there was ever a film made this year that needed to be told on the biggest screen possible I would think it would be the one about the Apocolyptic end of teh world.
Vic, any inside news on this?
@790 & Ken J
You 2 are my cyber buds but you are getting on Kahless’ nerves. He keeps rambling on about some type of blood-feud or something, and then starts sharpening his bat’leth.
Fight! Fight! Fight!
@INK
Pretty sure that’s the opposite of what Vic wants. :p
Either way, ONE of them is a bit too mature to rise up to such remarks anyway. They both know which one.
Vic, just curious as to why you removed the latest comments section from inside the articles. It’s kind of inconvenient to have to go to the main page to see what new comments have been left. Any way to get them back?
@Andy S
I’m trying some things to help the site and to decrease page load time. Based on the stats from a few pages I tracked, those links received maybe 1 or 2 clicks out of 1,000 page views.
Vic
@INK
LOL, I have no clue what’s going on. I come here talking about Cpt. America, next thing I know he’s harassing me about some guy who says stuff he believes in. It’s like hello, we get it, you believe in the stuff, that’s great, let’s get back to talking about how I’m an idiot for wanting an American to play Cpt. America, geez…
Besides, I only like fights in real life.
@Andy S
Yah, I liked that feature too, but here’s something you can do. Open the main site, and instead of clicking the latest comments, right click it and select open with new tab, and do that for all of them, then read them separately…
“instead of clicking the latest comments, right click it and select open with new tab”
Alternatively, clicking with the middle mouse button (or scroll wheel) will open links in a new tab automatically, and still keep you on the same page, so you can quickly open multiple tabs. The middle button can also be used to close tabs down by middle clicking on them.
Strange thing is I know that trick, but always right click and select it, don’t know why, can’t break the habit, lol.
I was like that, but once I got used to it, I use the middle button all the time. Makes thing easier when I’m clearing through my RSS feeds, I can open the pages I want without leaving the page.
Only downside is I end up with about 30+ websites all open at once once my feed’s are clear. :p
Blah, blah, blah … where’s the blood?
I know all about the tabs, Ken, but at work the browser doesn’t support them.
Thanks for the response, Vic. Any way to make the latest comments section on the front page contain more than the 1/2 dozen or so there now? Or is there a way to flag the article itself on the main page if there are new comments?
@Andy S
Then just right click and open in new window. So you still stay on the main page and can open all of them up at once and read them then close them when you’re done.
@Andy S
If you just subscribe for email responses then you’ll know when comments are added.
Vic
Well, that wouldn’t work for me, no access to email from work, that’s why I would rely on the latest comments thing, lol.
for anyone interested in some x-men talk (chrisj, john k if you’re listening) there is an article about how X3 would have played out if Bryan Singer had stayed on the project with his writers. interesting read.

Vic, I can’t access email from work, besides I would have my inbox filled with the latest flame wars between Ken J and 790.
No biggy, though.
@M-Cat
Man, that sounded like it could have been EPIC. Now, I’m even more pissed that Singer left the franchise.
@Vic
Would you ever allow one of your readers to submit a review for a film, DVD, or Blu-Ray? And you post it after you approve of it. I’m just curious.
Matt k
Yeah I like the idea of a guest review. That would be cool.
M-cat I’ll go a round or two on that subject if you want?
@ the old man
I don’t have the X-Men knowledge to go head-to-head with you but I hope you’re not saying you would prefer Ratner’s version. If Singer stayed on board Professor X would not have died, cyclops would have become the leader we all know him to be, and Jean would have been more of a presence than we saw in the third movie. She looked like she was hypnotized the whole movie.
Woo Hoo! Good news! My cable company (TW) just started carrying SyFy in HD!
@Matt K
Not really, sorry.
Vic
@Vic
Just a small suggestion, but when comments for an article/review run over multiple pages, you have links at the bottom of the comments to go to the other pages. I was just wondering if it would be possible to also have those link at the top of the comments.
I’m not sure if I’m the only one who experiences this, but sometimes I’ll be reading through past comments by going through the comments backwards (like maybe looking for a comment by a certain person, so I’ll start at the most recent and work backwards), and thus I’ll end up at the top of the comments, find I need to go back a page and have to scroll all the way back down to change the comment pages (gosh I’m saying the word “comments” a lot).
Now, I don’t know, maybe I’m the only one who has this problem (I mean I am talking about reading comments backwards, perhaps I’m the only one weird enough to do this), but I thought maybe it wouldn’t be too difficult to implement.
