Re: The BJMDDS General Discussion Thread......
Introducing the new, improved and very luminous 2019 Vanquish, Aston Martin's latest addition to one of its most popular and powerful models, the next generation features a 4.0-litre twin-turbo V8 engine that will take it from 0 to 60mph in 3.5 seconds and on to a maximum speed of 195mph. Which should give it just enough speed to drag race through the markets of Istanbul, or whatever else Bond has lined up for his next outing.

Twin turbo V8 and a new driver? Hate to think about it. The crap we pulled in the crap cars we had, if they had any real power we’d either make the jump across the creek or we’d be dead.

Happy Thanksgiving to the Americans!
Tomorrow is the day when Americans beat each other up in the stores to get to reduced items?

Re: The BJMDDS General Discussion Thread......
Gaurang Chauhan, TIMES NOW: Justice League, which opened to unreasonably harsh reviews from critics, and a mixed reaction from movie watching audiences, is expected to lose close to $50-100 million, according to a report by Forbes. According to the same report, Justice League cost a huge $300 million and an additional $150 million was spent on it's marketing. After an utterly disappointing opening weekend of just $94 million, the film is turning out to be a losing affair for it's maker. It is expected that the film will make $235 million by the end of its run at the North American box office and $400 million in the overseas market, which will take its total to $635 million. If that holds true, it'll be the lowest grossing film under DCEU.

Re: The BJMDDS General Discussion Thread......
I am waiting on the blame game to name Ben Affleck's close association with Harvey Weinstein as root cause for this debacle. A month before the movie was released there was a story where this idea was floated.bjmdds wrote:Gaurang Chauhan, TIMES NOW: Justice League, which opened to unreasonably harsh reviews from critics, and a mixed reaction from movie watching audiences, is expected to lose close to $50-100 million, according to a report by Forbes.

Re: The BJMDDS General Discussion Thread......
And his even closer association with Casey Affleck
I wonder how much that had to do with it, though. After all, Warner Bros has just announced that wife-beater Johnny Depp is still in Fantastic Beasts 2. They obviously calculated that any money they lose will be less than whatever it would cost to release him from his contract.

Well if this don’t just suck, looks like I won’t be having healthcare next year premiums are up over 60%, I used to pay less than $90 a month before obama care now a lesser policy costs over $600 a month with a bigger deductible and co pay if I actually use it and I haven’t.

Blame Oh-bama for it and the 100% Democratic votes in 2010 big O It's a disgrace. My friend's wife was dropped from her plan again and her new plan in 2018 is $600/month with a $5800 deductible to boot If the entire country had to deal with this, not just the self-employed, the outcry would be catastrophic against those who passed this trash lawOmega wrote:Well if this don’t just suck, looks like I won’t be having healthcare next year premiums are up over 60%, I used to pay less than $90 a month before obama care now a lesser policy costs over $600 a month with a bigger deductible and co pay if I actually use it and I haven’t.

it is trash, if congress had to live under it without there super subsidy they would fix this bill quick.bjmdds wrote:Blame Oh-bama for it and the 100% Democratic votes in 2010 big O It's a disgrace.

I had to resubmit my application to update for next years income and they gave a subsidy which kind of makes up for the exact amount of the increase. What the hell is going on? No way should it naturally work out like this.
I’ve got to take the subsidy which goes directly to the insurance companies or I definitely will not be able to afford insurance this next year. Hunted for a lower deductible and co-pay too, hard to find but without it healthcare is still unaffordable.
I think part of the increase was to kill the particular plan I was on because they took it from a low deductible to high, still the other plans in the same silver range were not that much cheaper but at least the deductible was less. Another reason I think they were killing a particular plan is our state was supposed to have a lower rate increase they amount they jumped does not match the rate approved.
It was stressful but I think I’m going to be ok for next year. Dunno about 2019 if this law isn’t fixed.
Sorry your friends wife is caught up in this mess too. Every year its a crapshoot at what policies and companies will still be standing, if the insurance company doesn’t like the policy the price it out of existence.

Re: The BJMDDS General Discussion Thread......
The weekend estimates aren't out yet as I type this, but Box Office Mojo has published, a tad prematurely, its 2017 charts, both domestic and worldwide. I expect the actual year-end chart to look very different, thanks to the release of a certain film whose title rhymes with "the past deadeye". But it's interesting to compare the domestic (US and Canada) chart to the worldwide one. Both charts have Hermione and the Beast at #1 and Spiderman: Homecoming at #4. But the other 3 slots are completely different. The domestic chart has Wonder Woman at #2 (#7 worldwide), Guardians of the Galaxy Vol 2 at #3 (#6 worldwide) and It at #5 (#10 worldwide).
Meanwhile, the worldwide chart had The Fate of the Furious at #2 (#9 domestic), Despicable Me 3 at #3 (#7 domestic) and the Chinese movie Wolf Warrior 2 at #5 (#151 domestic!) Make of this what you will.

Re: The BJMDDS General Discussion Thread......
After September delivered record numbers, the month of October saw the 2017 box office return to its downward trend, delivering calendar grosses down 15.6% compared to last year, falling below $600 million for the first time in ten years. Perhaps most startling is that with 287 films in release, the average per film was just $1.9 million, making it the first time that average has ever fallen below $2.1 million for any individual month based on BoxOfficeMojo's records going back to "1982"
