Origin stories are usually always better than what comes after. The only exception is Wolverine: Origins, lol. Being introduced to a character before they have their powers, where they're weak (Peter Parker getting bullied) and seeing them transform usually makes for a good movie. Man of...

It's funny how they're whining how misogynistic we are. They cast four extremely unattractive women as the leads and then Chris Hemsworth as the villain. Yeah. Want to make a good Ghostbusters 3? Mix the casts from Hangover and the Wedding Ringer. Cast Kevin Hart as the comic relief...

Something that I really find irksome, and Bond movies aren't alone in this regard, are the super genius villains who want to nuke New York City (or destroy the eastern seaboard/half of the globe) in exchange for United States dollars. If something that catastrophic happened, markets would...

They confirmed that Superman didn't die and he'll be back. I mean, I've been around 30 years and I've never seen dirt spontaneously start floating. There was nothing ambiguous about the ending at all, except how fucking retarded it is that he doesn't stay dead. Zod didn't reopen his eyes and...

Btw, Marvel heroes are not corny. A man who uses his wits, is proficient with a space gun, but also very immature and childish, would die if he's shot, and an anti-hero is a lot more interesting than Superman who is basically Hulk + Thor + Cyclops + Wolverine + Quinjet with a Martha Stewart...

Terrible movie. Ben Affleck as batman? For real? Was there anyone out there that actually thought the twist ending was actually a twist, and that Superman would actually die? DC heroes/villains have no inner conflict, no weaknesses, they're like children with superpowers. Superpowers so...

They used to hide them in device drivers. Now they're hidden in the DLL files you download with your personal Steam settings. The very best programmers write these tailor made hacks and only sell them to a few dozen players. They can disable them anytime they want, so they basically have...

I keep trying to win as Empire on Legendary. My god is it brutal, I've never had such a challenging campaign ever in Total War. I really don't know what to do. You are literally surrounded by about 15 different states that will declare war on you the second you stop giving them tribute or...

Careful, autistic people usually carry around a pair of scissors and a pocket protector. Couple snips here and there, and you'd go from 300 manly super spartan to Napoleon Dynamite.

Brent Spinner is a pretty underrated actor. Have you seen his impression of Patrick Stewart? It's fucking hilarious. Brent Spiner imitates Patrick Stewart... again. - YouTube I phoned his wife once... one of them anyway. I said, "Daaarling, I won't be able to make it home for dinner."...

Yeah, no shit. Jurassic World was very enjoyable entirely because Chris Pratt is in it. There's no bad Chris Pratt movies, you could put him in a Jean-Claude Van Dam B-movie and it'd be a blockbuster.

That last link, look at the slow motion auto head-locks on people he couldn't possibly know the exact position of. One guy's in the smoke, one in the door. I mean come the fuck on... there's cheating at these major events and it's just so depressing.

I got so good at this game, and completely lost interest when it was confirmed that the top teams were using hacks in LAN tournaments. Valve gives millions to the winner but doesn't give a fuck about the integrity of the competition because it would cause too much of a scandal if they started...

I am a Total War super-fan and it's definitely refreshing and awesome. Very difficult, especially on Legendary. I usually have no probably beating the shit out of the AI, but even pulling off some pretty incredibly battle victories I keep getting stomped as Karl Franz. Then again on one of...

This is my contribution. So much of "success" is just dumb fucking luck. Kind of like: Donald Trump being born to a dad who gave him a small "million dollar loan". The idiots who invented Tickle-Me-Elmo and Beanie Babies. People born with better genes that grant them higher intelligence...

Except I have absolutely no fucking idea why people find, "How do you like them apples?" so funny. Twilight Sparkle would be the creepy assistant to the professor that walks around without saying anything. You know the one who has a mancrush on the professor, and is obviously super ultra...

I have a 50 something Giant, with a ton of dyes/armor sets/pets. Also should have quite a lot of items/money/gear, especially on my crafting alts. I think L57? A couple over the soft-cap. I haven't played since about a month post-1st update raising that added the zone in the east, and...

The only throwbacks that have been commercially successful:

Really creeping me out, buddy. I said earlier in another thread I'd never murder anyone, but if you show up at my door saying that shit to my face...shots fired. I've accommodated in my head the chances of you having a massive neckbeard, so it may come out, "min ur shar rar artistick" and...

According to Reddit, it's likely that Rey's parents crash landed on a red planet in a single star system. Without supplies, they were forced to eat potatoes and build R2D2 from the remnants of some mysterious vehicle that they found. Since handsome guys from other galaxies (Superman) are...

I kind of liked McCarthy in Spy... but she's so wrong for this role. Just like Zach Galifianakis, as funny as he is, wouldn't make a good Ghostbuster. His humor is acting dumb, not the type of sarcastic eye-rolling humor of Peter Venkman. Murray would just sit there and just give off, "what...

For a song from the 80's it is a masterpiece. Shut it.

Clint Eastwood directed movies depress the living hell out of me. The one with Hilary Swank, what the fuck!? Gran Torino could've been filmed with a budget of $500 and was really good. Borrow two houses and a car, play the main character yourself, pay a bunch of Korean's minimum wage, and...

Same thing happened with Pierce Brosman. Goldeneye was an amazing movie. Every movie after that... just kept getting worse, with one exception. Tomorrow Never Dies and Die Another Day, my God. They actually had a North Korean villain who was a white guy, wtf! Though I did like The World...

Doesn't the show follow the events that happened IRL pretty faithfully? Knowing that there'd never be a climatic confrontation between Seth and Al was one of my biggest letdowns. Neither of them died in Deadwood. Don't the US cavalry show up right before shit is about to hit the fan...

I would say it's really Sci-Fi (now SyFy) that has done so much for her. Then again it was HBO that originally cast her, wasn't it? I know the pilot of SG-1 featured full frontal nudity, as that's definitely something I remember because I was like 13. Showtime, not HBO.

Will you please shut the fuck up. If I am autistic, you are both autistic and annoying. You are like the forum version of Pee-Wee Herman.

Just want to add like Detective Box said, "You're in the house, the house is on you." He had sex with her, and that right there usually means that you're probably not going to get away. He drives away in an cab with easily visible numbers on top of it. They'll find out an outdoor camera on...

Something I noticed was that when he runs out, the door is locked behind him. He has to break in to open it, then runs out. Later, when the cops show up they're able to open the door as it isn't locked. This kind of makes you wonder, did someone lock the door behind Naz? The door doesn't...

Magic returning does seem to be one of the bigger mysteries that hasn't really been sufficiently explained by anyone. But when did it leave, and why? We know it was existent in heavy use during the entire time of the Valyrian Freehold, as they sacrificed a shitload of slaves to perform blood...

Fair enough. The books make you question what you were raised to believe through a fictional medium, and that's pretty rare. Yeah, you can read and learn these concepts through outright discussion, psychology, and philosophy but a work of art that transcends that is GRRM's goal, I think. If...

The same conclusions as every other person? What the fuck. Maybe it's because I live in the Deep South, but everybody here is like, "Why aren't we in the fucking Middle East killing the shit out of those fuckers!" Generally, there's three things that keep a person from being hostile. 1)...

And yeah, I have a novel way of looking at the world. As a poker player you always try to understand another person's actions, and I guess I've taken that to trying to understand entire societies. How were the Germans capable of committing the Holocaust? Best answer is that we aren't nearly...

One of the signs of Autism is repetitive behavior. The only posts I've ever seen you make are calling people autistic. Makes one wonder.

I watched S1E1 which for some reason was actually the second episode. They're already in prison, with their identities, and don't seem to going anywhere for the next few episodes... The Expanse was probably the best SyFy "spaceship" show in a long time. The one episode where the Mars...

I don't understand why they cut from him being upstairs to him being passed out downstairs. They should have shown him going downstairs and then passing out, leading me to speculate that... If I were in Naz's situation, I'm calling the cops immediately. There's already way too much...

Yeah, so do dolphins and chimpanzees now that I looked it up. It seems that there may be some correlation that behavior and intelligence, or maybe not. I concede that part. It's just odd that in science fiction, you tend to find the "big bads", whether it be Arachnids from Starship Troopers...

For traditional High Fantasy it's not derivative at all. Take a look at MMO's based on High Fantasy. They take a world, populate it with a bunch of mindlessly evil NPC-villains that "automatically want to attack" and it's just so fucking retarded when you stop to think about it. Nothing in...

All from 1993, so obviously there have been major changes including changing this from a trilogy to what, 8 books? Now take a look at the position she's in now, loyalty to her brother or power? Combined with her characteristics being more Tully than Stark, and her Direwolf being the first...

Does not jibe with... People have been doing so for twenty years. There's just a lot more content and consistency with this work. GRRM thought the entire thing through to the end before he began the first book, unlike other writers who just make shit up as they go. I've yet to find a plot...
