  1. Re:hmm on Subpoena Sought For Browsed News Articles · · Score: 2, Insightful

    Unless there is some sort of local rule or local law I'm not noticing that's not right at all. For parties attorneys can make requests without going to a court. But, for non-parties, which these miscellaneous ISPs would be, they need a subpoena from the court to get the info. If the holders of the info are parties then yes the attorneys could get it by just asking. Assuming the other side doesn't refuse for whatever reason they might have, then a judge would be called in to settle the fight.

  2. I thought it was pretty good. Some umor... on Cloverfield Discussion · · Score: 2, Interesting

    was injected, whether intentionally or not, at just the right moments to keep the movie from becoming overly serious. Maybe a serious giant monster movie use to work, but now the absurdity of all the bad Godzilla movies and the corny 60's and 70's movies have pretty much ruined the genre of "serious" monster movie. What made this movie enjoyable was the humor and the characters. My favorite line comes right after they rescue the girl from the leaning tower of Manhattan. "What's that!?" she screams to which HUD replies "Something terrible!" After they kill the critter in the stairwell and they're walking down, HUD does a close up of the dead thing and says, "Something also terrible." The theater exploded. Perfect moment for some levity. I also heard something last night that I have never heard in a DC theater before. Silence during the movie. When Rob's mom called the theater went pin drop quiet. That's as much a testament to this story's power as anything.
