Michael Hopcroft Posted September 4, 2018 Report Share Posted September 4, 2018 When the writer of the article calls Man of Steel "the highest-grossing Superman movie), did they account for inflation? Admittedly the Christoper Reeve Superman films were of a very different era, but they are much more beloved and highly-regarded than Man of Steel.

That drama was just hard to watch. Both Serena and the chair umpire could have handled it better. The situation spiralled out of control. And the trophy ceremony was awkward and even turned ugly for a while. I can understand the crowd being upset, but the way the fans reacted was shameful. To her credit, Serena told the crowd to stop booing and show Naomi some appreciation. Anyway, congratulations to Naomi Osaka. She was the better player in this match, and she deserved a better reception from the crowd. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lawnmower Boy Posted September 10, 2018 Report Share Posted September 10, 2018 Whether you're a Herophile or not, please stay safe. I'm a little gobsmacked that hurricane season is starting with a potential disaster, because it suggests that we'll be dealing with a few more of them, and I'm a bit worried that our modern economy isn't really up to the strain of so many weather-related blows. People in Carolina need to not drown tomorrow. Everyone needs to not starve, every day. archer 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Literally any deviation, north or south will be good news for me. Note: It'll be a depression most likely when it hits me, but it looks to rain until Doomsday.
