Who the fuck told you that? On the first attempt my wife worked with a couple who couldn't afford to go through an agency and agreed to do it at way less than the standard rate because she wanted to save them as much money as possible. She also wrote the contract to save them an additional $800 in attorney fees, and spent hours shopping the cheapest and most effective insurance plans to save them money. That didn't pan out (miscarriage on Christmas Eve, which was just fantastic), and we ended up going through an agency who paid less, but who had higher rates of success and stricter requirements for their applicants on both sides. Glad to know Jsp is worse than highschool with people spreading rumors about shit they know nothing about.

There are multiple ways to get something from your PC to the TV. You could simply move your tower, which takes a few minutes, and plug it in directly with an HDMI cord. Or you could shell out $30 for a 100ft HDMI cord. Or as he stated, you could use a chromcast, or any other number of streaming devices. You could move a TV towards your PC and hook it up that way, or you could simply watch it on your monitor. It's the same for torrenting as it is for streaming though, and if you ever need the current working link, just google The [hardy har har word] bay or kat and you'll get what you're looking for.

Yeah but I just wanted a torrent... plain and simple. Thats all i ever asked from the start. Its like someone asking for a hotdog and then someone else suggesting they have a burrito instead. Yeah ok that would be yum af too but I want a fucking hotdog not a burrito. And yes I did Google and it was relatively simple to find the right kat site but in the past when I've looked for torrents I managed to stumble upon the multiple clone sites filled with malicious content and such.

Like I said, apologies for the mistruths... obviously jsp chinese whispers from what I heard . There is no need to defend yourself to me

I see. Alright, well I guess I can understand where you were coming from then. Just never had my this problem myself, and I could see how if I had, that how you went about this being a sensible thing to do. As far as the hotdog v Taco analogy, more like hotdog vs different type of hotdog. I only ever bother torrenting if I'm getting some for my parents/family or if I'm going to be somewhere without internet for a few days and I want to stock up on some shows/movies to watch during the nights. You should look into chromcast, or another streaming device as it is ridiculously easy/convenient to just stream shit, rather than having to worry about downloading and either getting meh copies after wasting your time getting the file, or it having annoying hard-coded subs, or it not being what it was advertised as, which happens from time to time with that shit. Anyways, glad you found it.

Back on topic. Haven't had any time the past week, but I did make sure to schedule myself off a few hours to watch this tonight.


E: I am curious to know who's been trash talking me behind my back, but it's funny that with all the actual material for insulting me, people choose instead to make shit up that couldn't be further from the truth :rofl: . Guess that should give people an idea to what kind of classy and intelligent people talk trash behind people's backs

The lack of conclusion is a bit frustrating to me.

The movie was pretty good overall though. I'm not sure what to say about it at the moment... But I'll expand more later.

Yeah the ending is lackluster. Honestly would have preferred them to go and murder that guy. But I think that would have turned it from the great film it was to a snuff film, ya know?But I think both them were deserving of their Oscars they won for this

Lol are you serious josh? You're always such a bitch. You didn't help, none of you did...

All I wanted to know was a god dam torrent website so I didn't get one of them stupid identical looking mirrors loaded with spyware and what not... I never asked for a stream or any of that chromecast bullshit, so no, no one posted anything helpful.

Also to the rando who suggested me being a richass and should buy it on Amazon, well I'm Australian, the shipping would be worth more than the actual price tag.

Seriously, next time just pm me a god dam link instead of being a complete bunch of bitches. Jesus Christ re-read your posts they are downright disgusting.


i told you to pm me you idiot

I'm not sure what kind of change I'd do to the ending to keep it a great movie but make it feel... Like an ending.

Maybe saying the DNA was inconclusive would be enough... Idk. Saying it definitely wasn't him but we are going to go and maybe kill him anyways feels like it should be the half way point of a worse movie that turns into some sort of Bonnie and Clyde cross country murder spree, not the ending of a great movie.

All of the actors were phenomenal though. I don't think there was a single weak spot. I think the girl thai played the ex husband's new gf did a great job. She was cute and silly and the perfect comedy relief to some pretty intense scenes that could have easily spiralled if not for her.

I liked the ending, but I also prefer movies that leave room for interpretation.
Maybe we will see the outcome in the sequel which will span across the entire Three Billboards cinematic universe.

Don't know about the gf. Still feels a bit over the top. She just reminds you that you are watching a movie with quirky characters. Felt a bit our of place since every other character is very grounded in his behaviour and motivation.

I have to disagree, I know people who are actually like that. Super perky all the time and shit. To me it shows variation which makes it feel more real. Everyone else feels so damn serious. Like "look at us being so serious in this serious movie, everyone so serious."

To me the way the families interacted pulled me out of the movie more than a overly perky character.

I have never seen any family act so terribly towards eachother in the same fashion that every single family we see in this movie acts. Maybe it's an American culture thing idk. Seemed more odd to me than having a happy character in a serious movie.

Also the "I have to use the bathroom, is this a bad time? It's a bad time in hold it" was great. And when she comes out later and talks about no longer working at the Zoo... It's like she is just a good person. Genuinely a good person in this town filled with shit heads.

Even Tyrion Lannister looks like he is on the eve of all out war in Westeros.
