Wait, are you saying you have BSG in stock?!
I don't make it to Iowa City ever and I wanted to make the FFG thing because I was having throat surgery on Friday but let me tell you Saturday the last thing I wanted to do was go talk to anyone (who knew a throat nip would make it hurt so much). Do you guys happen to carry Kingdom hearts starter kits as well? |

We don't have any Kingdom Hearts Starters in stock but I'd be willing to carry it again! & yes, we have BSG!!!! | ||
| macdude22 |
BSG in stock you say. Are there any decent theaters in Iowa City. I'm wanting to go see Quantum o Crap for the Trek Trailer and I don't trust my theater in Grinnell to give me a good experience (apparently 10 year old kids don't make good projectionists). BSG might seal the deal for a trip to Iowa City. | ||
| admin |
Yeah, I'd recommend the one in the Sycamore Mall. (No idea the name) If that one isn't running the movie then Coralville 10 is servicalble. | ||

Yeah the Sycamore theater is better and a stones throw from CHG | ||

Man in charge, set me aside that BSG. Bender's coming to town this weekend to watch trek trailers and purchase said BSG games.
One more question, is there anywhere in Iowa City to get a good, real, Chicago Style Deep Dish Pizza. I've been CRAVING one for some time now and we are sorely lacking said style pizza in Grinnell. |

I know Sam's has it on the menu, although my wife (in her pre-lactose/fructose-intolerance days) liked the thin and so we never got the deep.

"Wig and Pen" has the best in town IMO. |
||

Wig and Pen flying tomato looks like more what I'm used to. I don't consider Chicago Stuffed Crust to be the true chicago style deep dish. I'll settle for stuffed crust if I have to but the type I'm used to is almost like a pie, no second layer of crust (sometimes I've had it with an extra layer of cheese though). I think Pizzaria Unos fathered the the style I prefer? | ||

I've locked a 7:00 vector for CHG to get BSG with an 8:30 QoS viewing (called to confirm trek trailer of course, girl probably thought I was crAzy). I'm interested to check out the store. | ||
| admin |
Look forward to seeing you! I'll make sure we're open until then! Normally that's not a problem unless it gets super slow. We'll be here! | ||
| macdude22 |
Store was fun, its a great place you have to let gamers get together and play. Thanks for letting us play Pandemic (and finding some players to play with) when QoS was sold out and we had to wait for the 10:00 show. | ||
| jpat |
The big question is, what did you eat? | ||
| macdude22 |
So I forgot I had tickets to a local soup supper so that's what I ate. I'll have to make another trip back I guess. Looks like I might have to make a couple more trips to Iowa City for my sleep apnea anyway (with a stop by critical hit of course). | ||

ST trailer was awesome... Quantum was not. | ||

I didn't like casino royal and had hopes for this new one but man that was garbage, I nearly fell asleep. It was like your average generic American action movie, only with sudo British bond at the helm. Heck he slept with what, one woman? That's not how bond rolls. Color me unimpressed with the new bonds.
Color me excited as F*** about the new Trek movie. I love every thing trek (ok not enterprise, but who does) and I could care less about classic cannon. With so much history in the show being a product of the times classic trek got a bit long in the tooth. This refresh looks like just what McCoy ordered. Much to my wife's dismay I have been leaving the new Trailer on loop for several hours now. |

Hmm. I thought the trailer was rather blech and that Solace was promising, but I have only seen the trailer.  And now I'm done heading off topic.
