    what the f**k was that episode of Boys. Herogasm was such a bait and switch title cos people expected something else and got something else which was brilliant. Jenson Ackles as Soldier boy is killing it, Anthony Starr is on another level this season with his facial expressions itself and Butcher is more meaner and more heartless, absolutely loving it ?

     

    Can't wait for next episode to see the fallout.

     

    Absolutely great episode. They're consistently elevating every episode, which is rare to see now-a-days. Also the craziness is getting closer to the comics.

    True. I don't know if it's only my experience with Croma guys near me but I found them to be arrogant and not helpful. On the other hand Vijay sale guys have always been professional and courteous. 

     

    Croma guys are generally arrogant as f**k. I've found much better peeps are RD and VS. 

    Experience in Noida and Delhi.

    Someone bought a decently priced type c to c cable over here recently.

    Can anyone share the link? Amazon is too expensive to buy for this use case.

    Ya. Looking for the same. My samsung cable is about to give up.  Not too pricey though. 

     

    Bought one from Cable Creations on Amz.

    Saw doctor strange. Mixed feelings, Enjoyed it in bits and pieces. 


    Also is it just me or the cgi was really bad compared to other marvel movies.

     

    ps: First scene somehow reminded me of spiderman 2002.

     

     

     

    Looked much better on the big screen. I saw it again on Hotstar yday and it didn't feel as impactful.

    Saw 'Interceptor' on Netflix.  A decent (albeit low budget) action movie.  Not much of a plot, but decent action sequences kept me engaged even on a week night.

     

    Also, found out later that the leading lady is Chris Hemsworth's wife (was wondering why would that guy make a cameo in such a small budget action movie lol) !! 

     

    Saw it as well. I thought it was a continuation of his fat dumb Thor persona. :lol:

    OLED definitely looks much better, even in the showroom it was quite apparent.  My concern is whether the extra cost (atleast 50k if I'm going with lg C2) , the OLED demands are worth it considering the risk of burn in (also read that neither lg nor Sony offers warranty for burn in).

     

    Unless you're going to do a lot of Tata Sky time or playing with static UI, burn in should be a non concern. Do note that OLED brightness will gradually reduce over time (some reports say around 28000 hour mark for red and green), but I've not noticed anything abnormal on my nearly 4 year old C8. Still puts most of the other TVs to shame.

    Thanks man, will avoid it then, x95j is around 1.1L now, maybe lesser with cashback and all, worth it or better to wait for c2 ? Also as i know C2 is OLED, doesn't it have a shorter life compared to other led tv ?

     

    If you're comparing FALD to OLED, prepare to be disappointed. We have a Sony FALD at home, and the PQ is nowhere close to an LG OLED.

  20. Credit Card - Help & Recommendations

    Wtf is up with HDFC and ICICI ? None of their cards are now accepted at the (relatively) new 080 Bangalore lounge. It's primarily Amex and few Visa Signature variants (SBI signature, Kotax Visa Sig Debit (not credit), Priority Pass among a few others). 

    Even HDFC Infinia and DCB holders were sent to the usual overfilled BLR lounge. 

    Amex add on card works btw, for 600 extra.

    Considering that one can get Prime free with many mobile/broadband/card offers, or even the paid cost isn't high (IIRC it was 1299, but I have never paid for it) - you basically get absolutely free 1 day/2 day/same day shipping for most items, I am not surprised they are renting more movies. Original programming also costs money - and Prime does have decent shows in it's kitty. 

    I was surprised with the move as well, but in the end, it's business.

    All VFX goes to sh*t if the protagonist can only do poker face, which is unfortunately the case here. 

    Our mythology is rich enough to have many such visual blockbusters, only if Bollywood can go outside of the nepotist actors. :wallbash:

    Also, why does every movie need to have Amitabh Bachchan ? It's like there's no one else left to play the wise man's role.
