Overnight Open Thread (7-18-2016)'Ghostbusters' is pretty funny and anyone who says otherwise is a virgin loser who lives in his mom's basement. So enter the Goose Master, whose word is law. That's him. In the hat. With the goose on it. Red Letter Media Reviews the Ghostbusters Remake Roger Ebert once observed that a movie had completely failed in its purpose if after watching it you had the impression that a film of the crew chatting over lunch would have been more interesting. Well the Ghostbusters remake may have failed in the Ebert-sense since I suspect the Half In the Bag review of it played twice would still be funnier than the actual movie. Especially once they start drinking Dan Aykroyd Crystal Head vodka and Ecto Coolers about 15 minutes into it. So watch and enjoy. And just remember that they hated this movie only because Update: Ed Driscoll points out that it was actually Gene Siskel who came up with this test: Is this film more interesting than a documentary of the same actors having lunch?
Axe-Wielding '17' Year Old Afghan Refugee Attacks Germans on Train According to Bavaria's Interior Ministry, a 17-year-old Afghan shouted "Allahu Akbar" before launching the attack using a knife and axe. The suspect was shot dead by police as he attempted to flee the scene. Since he arrived as an unaccompanied minor, no one really knows how old the attacker is or possibly his true identity. From CNN: Four passengers who were attacked are in serious condition, with the total number of wounded unclear, according to the police spokesman. China To Illegally Close Off Parts Of South China Sea For War Drills Despite the Hague-based Permanent Court of Arbitration ruling against their territorial claims last week. The U.S. exercised its right to freedom of navigation and sailed the USS Lassen, a guided missile destroyer, near an important artificial Chinese island in October 2015, protesting China's actions. China was so incensed, it summoned the U.S. ambassador and told him the move was "extremely irresponsible." Actually The Founding Fathers Did Know About Repeating Rifles Before the Bill of Rights Was Drafted Gun control advocates often claim that the Founding Fathers couldn't have conceived of repeating rifles when they drafted the Second Amendment to the Bill of Rights. The history of Joseph Belton, an inventor and gunsmith from Philadelphia, and his correspondence with the Continental Congress proves otherwise. But Belton wanted a lot of money for his guns - 1000 pounds per state that used it. Having received the letter immediately, Congress resolved that same day to refer Belton's petition to the Board of War, made up of five delegates. Among these five delegates were future 2nd President of the United States, John Adams, and Benjamin Harrison V, father and great-grandfather of the 9th and 23rd Presidents of the United States, respectively. Antarctic Sea Ice Continues to Expand Despite Global Warming; Climate Change Blamed. What Happens When You Play the Star Wars Theme in Front of John Williams' House The 8 Looming Problems That Could Dethrone Pokemon Go Sure it may underserve minority neighborhoods but I think this is the issue that will make it mostly a fad: This ability to provide quick endorphin hits and/or distractions during down time is crucial to the success of smartphone-bound games. Pokemon Go flips this principle on its head. The game rewards movement and is virtually impossible to play as a static-couch bound gamer. As a result, you can't really play on the subway without a signal. And people's homes, where they spend the bulk of their downtime, aren't typically Pokemon hot spots, meaning that the app is unopened during crucial free moments.
