    Rocky has more sequels, I'm pretty sure. I recall hearing about Rocky five... thousand.

    RB #119!

    119 is the second-best number. because:
    1+1=2
    9-2=7
    There are 3 digits in 119
    Put 7 and 3 together and you get 73 which is, of course, the best number.

    Friday the 13th is definitely the winner the "continously filmed crappy movies" category. Though the original PA was funny....

    I thought this was a new RB - My latest news is that a friend of mine taught me how to make kimichi yesterday and now it's on the list of my top favourite foods. I made a batch myself this morning. And it's low fat, low calorie vitamin packed and tastes very good.

    Ugh, don't talk to me about Game of Thrones. They should just write in a meteor strike, a big one, so that everybody dies.

    Sounds like someone's mad because their favorite character caught the pointed end of a blade.

    Not really, I just didn't really like the books - way too much politics and people digging their own traps and you being able to see it happen slowly, ever so slowly. And then it became a popular tv series, which is even worse at going anywhere.

    It's like dragon ball z, except without the dragon balls as an escape card to reset the whole world after it gets royally messed up.

    I haven't read the book or watched the series which makes me an outcast in certain circles.

    All the kids are watching it for the boobies, if the online reaction is any indication.

    I didn't watch any of the series, but I got the cliff notes:

    You can always read the books first, and than complain.

    Mrs Bruno: What should we get dad for his birthday?

    T3V2: A bottle of whiskey, a bottle of rum, a bottle of wine, and a bottle of beer.

    It's awesome when you realize how well you've raised your kids....

    I stopped reading the books. After 4 books I realized it was never going to end. I will continue whhen thhe last one of the series is officially finished.

    The same with Wheel of Time. I stopped after book 10.

    Writers really need to finish additional story lines and not keep dozens open at the same time. And of course at some point tie the knots together, and get an ending wrapping things up.

    But then how will they write another sequel?

    They need more money. For burgers.
