Graphic novel is not the movie. I never said anything of the graphic novel. I was responding to the trailer, quite clearly. Furthermore, I'm allowed to have my own opinion -- even if I were referring to the graphic novel, which I'm not, I could still consider it mediocre.

Rage on, 'lil rager. There always has to be one that comes along and wants to **** in the cornflakes.

Wow, I don't really know what to think. I am excited to see the film, but I just hope they don't pull it away from the comic too much. I really think they should have kept the original costume designs, and the colour tone looks kind of dull.

I wonder what Alan Moore thinks :pinch:

Take a chill pill. This isn't about rage. This is about having an opinion about the trailer. I thought it looked mediocre. I'm not making a big deal out of it, but you guys are by continuing the conversation about my own opinions and insisting that anyone who has a differing opinion than your own is worthless. :rolleyes:

There always has to be one that says a mediocre movie is the next Gone With the Wind.

That looks ****ing sick.

Ayepecks loved Bay's Transformers, nuff said bout his 'opinions' when it comes to source material.

My God, would you people quit being so utterly childish? I said NOTHING, NOTHING, NOTHING, NOTHING about the SOURCE material. I said the TRAILER looked mediocre. And guess what? People at the Dark Knight screening I went to were laughing at the trailer and making fun of it. Clearly I was the only one who disliked it. :rolleyes:

I was looking forward to this movie. I like Zack Snyder and it sounded neat. But the trailer looked bad, IMO.

And, yes, I liked Transformers. Thought it was a great popcorn movie. That has exactly WHAT bearing on this conversation? Tons of people loved that movie, especially here on Neowin -- I'm sure many of your compatriots in this thread liked it, too.

Hey guys, Dashel said he liked Metallica's St. Anger album. 'Nuff said about his "opinions."

didn't that song get used in batman & Robin? poor choice of music if i say so myself.... just brings back bad movie memories

Actually, this is not the same version, the version used in B&R was, The end is the beggining is the end, this one is called the beggining is the end is the beggining, it is a slower cut I think that is on the same album

I've never been giddy for a movie...but I'm giddy for this ****. Everything about that trailer is perfect, even the song's lyrics fit the tone of the story so well it sounds like it was made for this movie not B&R.

I read Watchmen when it was first printed and they are among the only comics I kept after selling my collection.

      Hello, It would appear so, according to https://finance.yahoo.com/news/how-to-hide-your-home-on-google-maps-apple-maps-204146687.html. Regards, Aryeh Goretsky

      Hello, The Nvidia Founders Edition 3080 video card is approximately six years old, correct? Have you looked into whether replacement fans are available for it? Perhaps replacing those will improve cooling, especially when combined with cleaning the card's heatsink and replacing the thermal interface materials. Regards, Aryeh Goretsky  
    • DuRoBo Krono Review: Portable E-Ink reader with great ideas that need a bit of improvement

      By goretsky · Posted

      Hello, While ~104 GB of space may seem generous (at least compared to other e-readers which have 8-32GB), I feel at this price point the device should have a Micro SDXC card slot for expansion, particularly if it allows audio books to be installed and played. I hope to see more reviews of 6" phone-sized e-readers on Neowin in the future. It will be interesting to see how they compare. Regards, Aryeh Goretsky

      Sandboxie Plus 1.17.8 / Classic 5.72.8 by Razvan Serea Run programs in a sandbox to prevent malware from making permanent changes to your PC. Sandboxie allows you to run your browser, or any other program, so that all changes that result from the usage are kept in a sandbox environment, which can then be deleted later. Sandboxie is a sandbox-based isolation software for 32- and 64-bit Windows NT-based operating systems. It is being developed by David Xanatos since it became open source, before that it was developed by Sophos (which acquired it from Invincea, which acquired it earlier from the original author Ronen Tzur). It creates a sandbox-like isolated operating environment in which applications can be run or installed without permanently modifying the local or mapped drive. An isolated virtual environment allows controlled testing of untrusted programs and web surfing. Sandboxie is available in two flavors Plus and Classic. Both have the same core components, this means they have the same level of security and compatibility. What's different is the user interface the Plus build has a modern Qt based UI which supports all new features that have been added since the project went open source. The Classic build has the old no longer developed MFC based UI, hence it lacks support for modern features, these features can however still be used when manually configured in the Sandboxie.ini. Sandboxie Plus 1.17.8 / Classic 5.72.8 release notes: Added added DisableCustomTitleOpt=[process,][y|n] to allow [#] sandboxie title markers on custom-titlebar windows (Delphi VCL, Qt, Electron) that were previously skipped to prevent DWM repaint CPU loops #5387 Changed updated bundled ImDisk driver to 3.0.2 #5419 Fixed fix Suppress logs for expected non-user SIDs #5422 SbieSvc.exe: SBIE2218/2219 error when run program as administrator #5417 fixed explorer.exe crashes in Application Compartment when Huorong Security is installed #5423 Download: Sandboxie Plus (64-bit) | 23.5 MB (Open Source) Download: Sandboxie Classic (64-bit) | 3.0 MB Links: Sandboxie Website | GitHub | ARM64 | Screenshot Get alerted to all of our Software updates on Twitter at @NeowinSoftware
    • what other retro software do yall use

      Hello, Christian Maas' XVI32 is a nice (and very small) hex editor. Speaking of hex editors, many years ago a colleague and I who both worked at Tribal Voice managed to edit a copy of the company's PowWow instant messaging client to make it behave better now that all of its lookup servers and other server-side tech was gone.  The program didn't support NAT (RFC-3022 was introduced in January 2001, the same time Tribal Voice was shuttered), but it still worked okay if you manually set up port-forwarding on your router.  The server at http://powwow.jazy.net/ hosts a copy (usual warnings about downloading and running untrusted code from random internet servers apply). I occasionally use some tools like Funduc Software's Search and Replace and Application Mover when I need to make mass-edits to text-based files or move programs with a hard-coded installation directories, respectively.  When I need to figure out the exact LCD panel inside of a laptop, EnTech Taiwan's Monitor Asset Manager is my go-to tool for that purpose. JD Design's website (now hosted on github.io) has a number of interesting freeware and shareware utilities.  I used to use their TouchPro utility to set the file timestamps on software I was mastering to match its version number (e.g., version 3.00 of a program had all of its files dates set to 3:00AM, and so forth). Karenware has a number of interesting freeware utilities, too. Regards, Aryeh Goretsky
