I would assume most of the villains / daytime Punisher are a montage at the beginning, with the later Scorpion fight going badly / oddly (either saved by or then meeting with Punisher afterward at night), until he realizes he's actually been under psychic attack by the mind controller working...

So "2.0" is: Slight updates to the super powers, which were so meaningless no one cares about them. A free roam mode _if_ you found the base mechanics interesting enough to want to play more of (which was the whole problem). A more elaborate version of faction ambushes. I have a hard time...

Apparently its a twenty year time gap in the movie. I'm not sure how they thought casting Ana Taylor Joy, who's just one year younger than Timothee, was ever going to work in any sequel(s), "spice enhances life" or not.

I was not expecting Sentimental Value to get International, but hey, "Euro" block and "Movies About Movies" block still representing. Honestly surprised Frankenstein did as well as it did, even if it was the usual genre related technical categories. GDT is burning through his Oscar cache on...

My understanding is it is actually the opposite - with the way void years immediately apply to the cap, and the limited space the Eagles have, the Eagles need Goedert to sign some sort of extension to stretch out his void years to be able to eat the dead money from Brown _if Brown_ were to be...

Jack II looking very ethnic.

While this sort of scenario has happened before (every trade is subject to passing the physical), the timing is horrible - the Raiders now have a ton of new hires they made under the assumption they wouldn't be carrying Crosby's salary, and they still have to be compliant to the 2026 cap _today_...

For Malik Willis, that's a lot of guaranteed money for such few starts, but at the same time a pretty low average per year for the #1 QB candidate (that isn't offset by someone else paying his salary). Speaking of which, it'll be interesting to see if there's enough interest in Kyler that...

I don't see Supergirl doing anywhere near Superman territory. Stuff like The Marvels shows women saw _a_ movie featuring women in each universe (Captain Marvel / Wonder Woman) and won't bother to come back for a second just because there's a woman in the lead. No Gunn, a character people care...

What Cad said - beyond "The Mandarin" (who is just an actor, after all), Wonder Man is very disconnected from the MCU and can basically be enjoyed as a stand alone. And yes, the B&W flashback episode is the highpoint. Note that, like most material about Hollywood / Hollywood productions, your...

Yeah, there's a lot of zooms on faces and such that look like spaghetti westerns at first glance, until you remember who did it and it turns into "I see what you did there". I have not spotted the Olds turned into a wagon yet, however. Honestly, the bigger style departure is Raimi going full...

Am I the only person who gets the exact opposite vibes? In living memory, Xbox was able to wrest significant marketshare from a global rival (the 360). "Their" IP has significant mass market recognition - the Fallout TV show is popular, The Minecraft Movie was the second biggest movie in the US...

You're not wrong that the sudden 20th century soundtrack did remind me most of A Knight's Tale, but I meant this:

The caveat is (again) that this is the most concise (and probably the best) Westeros story Martin wrote, and they only have two more published stories to work with. Hell, you could argue that even the material they added to this season doesn't particularly hold up. Egg exercising Thunder? Sure...

I honestly don't know if even that's good enough. It's not just that the connector needs to stay mated to the video card, the individual wires need to stay properly mated to the connector. I'm not convinced that cage would block you from snagging _a_ wire and pulling it away from the connector...
