Hey Pro, do you recommend the KO ones? I've gotten conflicting reviews about them, but
I was thinking about giving them a shot.

Yup. I have several and they're all pretty good. Sideswipe is the weakest out of the ones I've picked up... little loose joints Etc. nothing you can't easily fix tho. Sometimes with the KOs they actually fix issues... so works out in the end. Just watch the ironhide compare that 'rocketpuncharmy' did on YouTube. He usually does reviews on the KOs... he does a good job showing them off. Lots of times it's hard to tell the difference. Well worth it tho for the price. Like $30 vs. $90 on ratchet for example. Great value, Especially with the ridiculous prices they are now charging! Still in shock they are charging $230 for megatron!!
 
i've found myself getting more and more turned off from the greedy cash grab w/ DLC... enough that i'm finding my self not buying games anymore. if i purchase the game, you milking me for another $20 for a character or two that "should" have been there from the beginning is ridiculous. i get it if you come back to a game a year later and redesign it or spend a bunch of time making new stuff... but this bs of release date, buy the original or spend another $30 and get the full game is a joke!

That's why I've been playing old PS2/Gamecube games. I miss the days when paying $60 means you're getting the complete package. I missed games that don't ask for a critical update every time I boot it up. My PS4 has been gathering dust. :slap


We can all breathe now...

I'm glad to see at least ONE good live action DC movie. The only one I thoroughly enjoyed for the past 10 years was Lego Batman. :lol

What is the best way to tighten loose joints?

easiest is future polish. Dab a little on a paint brush and hit the joint with it. Work it around a little then let it sit for 24 hrs. May need a second application if super loose, but normally does the trick.

Only thing I've been buyin for my PS4 is VR games. And then the games that are on sale which includes all the DLC junk. I'm fine waiting to not get ripped off with that crap.
 
I'm pissed I'm not going to be able to see an early screening of Wonder Woman today. Now I'll have to go to the theater and sit with a bunch of popcorn-crunching mouth-breathers that can't control their kids or stay off their phones. :mad:

:rotfl

they've actually started upgrading the regal theaters in orl to that new rpx setup... which cuts down on a lot of that crap. reserve your seats so you don't have to get there so early, removed all standard seats and have big leather power recliners, butt kicker transducers in the seat... much better time going to the movies w/ the new setup!
 
There are two Marcus theatres near me that have upgraded to their "Dream Lounger" seats. I will never go to a regular theater again. Recliner leather sofas and the ability to pick my seats in advance and not wait in line = WIN.
 
I wish we had a nice theater, but it's a piece of ****. I'll have to make a 90-minute trip out of town to get to one of those fancy newfangled deluxe theaters.

yup makes such a huge difference. with the chairs leaning back some it snuffs out some of the aholes that can't, for what ever reason, stay off their idiotic phones... plus they have a couple at a different regal that has motion in the chairs and kicks out smells and adds wind and moisture! lol pretty crazy from what i hear.

yeah that def sucks not having a newer theater. we got sick of the whole experience of going, but love movies... so i put in an 80" led mounted to the wall a few years back. have surround speakers nested in the ceiling i set up as they were building the house, a nice leather loveseat w/ an armrest gig in the middle and decent surround sound system... i get my movie experience one way or another dammit!

I'd love to set up something like that at my house. I have a 65" screen with a basic surround system that works for now, but a theater room is definitely on my wish list.
 
I'll set up something big when we eventually move into a new house. I hate the idea of spending the money on it at a house I know we're not going to stay at for long.
 
true... wasted money does no good! lol

the big led tvs have gotten cheap... and pretty easy to mount to the wall. surprisingly light... seems odd when my buddy and i were hanging it! lol

highly recommend looking at one if you are in the market for home theater.
 
off to go get a wisdom tooth ripped from my skull... enjoy your afternoon when you think about how chitty YOUR day is goin! ;)
 
That sucks. I still have two of my wisdom teeth that will require surgery to get out because they're angled. Luckily they've never caused any pain so I've never bothered to get them out. I remember getting my other two pulled and it sucked.
 
I had to get all four removed at once; they grew in pretty badly. I didn't want to be put under, so they gave me laughing gas. I stopped to pick up a game on the way home. :lol

The recovery was probably the worst part. They gave me these pain pills, so I took one and for some reason it made my back cramp up.
