Nothing says kids movie like an opening crawl that explains how ambassadors have been sent to negotiate a treaty regarding a trade route dispute.

Just wait a few more years and you'll have all the Khaleesi generation actresses showing up.

Those blood-spewing rage zombies would be more up Khorne's alley. Nurgle can get regular rotting zombies from another franchise, and they can duke it out with different zombie armies.

Battle Arena Toshinden (PS1) had some of the best music of its generation, lots of those tunes live rent-free in my head 30 years later (especially recommend Duke's theme, but Gaia's is also awesome for a final boss theme). Full playlist in this link below : Also really loved the intro...

There's only two things I liked in The Batman : the way the common criminal was so scared of Batman that he freaked out at every shadowy corner, that was quite well done and worked well with the atmosphere of Batman. The second thing was that he did some detective work with the police, instead...

Fun fact : the Expanse books began as a project for a MMORPG inspired by Mass Effect. They were writing backstory and lore and figured they might as well turn that into a series of books, and it worked out pretty well.

From experience I can tell you the 999 moons in Mario Odyssey are a piece of cake compared to the 900 Korok Seeds in BOTW and TOTK. I actually got all the moons in Odyssey and while there's a modicum of grinding coins or finding all the secret stuffs to get some of them, it's definitely not...

It gave a new meaning to people choosing the bear.

If I can provide some advice for BOTW, don't get hung up on the weapons durability. It's a big (and mostly negatively received) change that they put in weapons that break quite easily in the game, but I recommend not worrying too much about it. You're quickly given several abilities that let you...

Short compared to a regular other video game? Not particularly, I'd say probably around 15/20 hours or so to finish it entirely for me. Short compared to BOTW/TOTK? Oh yes. Those are more like 60/70 hours to complete or 150+ hours to 100% finish everything reasonable (meaning excluding the 900...

Well, you should definitely play BOTW before TOTK, since TOTK is the sequel to BOTW. Skyward Sword can be played any time, it's really the "first" Zelda in the history of the franchise, establishing lore as to the origins of the whole mythos (to mixed reactions). I'm not a big fan of the...

My thoughts exactly. I think it's a little harder to justify buying this for people who already own a Switch OLED though.. I only had the original 2017 Switch so for me Switch 2 is a really big upgrade, it's both larger and lighter, and the games load much faster, plus I was going to play MKW on...

I sometimes feel like I'm the only person who doesn't think Superman and Batman should be in the same universe.. I feel it cheapens both characters. Superman because he's literally 3 seconds away from flying to Gotham City and cleaning up the place in less time than it takes Batman to put his...

If you're a fan of the Robocop films, the game is a love letter to them. It starts out pretty generic but the story is honestly pretty good, and the game has a lot of side missions and an emphasis on police/detective work I wasn't expecting from a Robocop video game. NG+ is also pretty great...

The animation is great during the middle segment in Japan in my opinion, it can definitely be smooth and quick when needed, and other moments are a bit more subdued with a slower frame rate, but it didn't bother -me-, your opinion may vary but after a few minutes I really wasn't noticing the...

Saw this today, it was great.

As Zelda is one of their flagships, I'm quite sure Nintendo of Japan, even Myamoto himself, is going to be very much involved in the development of the movie, like they were for the Mario animated movie. This rumor of a transgendered actor for Zelda has been viral the last few days but I'm sure...

That's funny because I only recently got a PS5 and played some games I'd missed out on, and I noticed several of them have the option to be invincible out right. Not even very easy or narrative/story difficulty, just plain invincible. And they're great games too (namely, Control and Plague Tale...

If they're going with one of the most established Zelda "stories" out there, probably Ocarina of Time, I could at least understand picking a somewhat androgynous-looking girl to play Zelda because she spends a good chunk of the story disguised as Sheik and passing as a lithe young man, but that...

Okaaay so I'mma skip those Alan Wake games then, thanks for your input! Just need to wait for Control 2 now. Anyone who's yet to play Control, I highly recommend it, and it's super cheap too, got the game new with both DLCs included for like 20 bucks on PS5. And they're big chunky DLCs too.

I've just finished playing Control on PS5 (amazing game) and found out it's linked to Alan Wake universe (not really spoilers for Control, but they share a universe and there's basically a whole Control DLC linked to that). I never played the Alan Wake games, would you recommend them? I'm not...

To push the point further, Krennic is shown to have changed quite a bit since his introduction in the first arc of the season where he seemed a lot more calm and collected, you can tell he's being pressured to finish the Death Star in time, and that's also what's causing his "I don't have time...

It's debatable, the Andor series implies that there were multiple causes to the ultimate downfall of the Empire that began with the Battle of Yavin / destruction of the Death Star. Maybe Deedra started rummaging in files she shouldn't have been looking into because she wanted to find some...

Season 2 has so many memorable lines.

Yeah I remember they are locked in a big civil war with the Quarren with whom they share their world.. the next three episodes arc takes place basically just before Rogue One if I recall correctly, so that could work since Rogue One basically happens over a few days (and then so does A New...

As a season mostly dedicated to the inner workings of the early Rebellion, it's really surprising we haven't even heard a mention of the Mon Calamari yet. In the original trilogy you only see them in ROTJ so there could have been an argument that they joined the Rebellion with their massive...

If Dark Ages is just more Eternal, I'll probably like it though I too have my reservations about the emphasis shown on melee in the trailers, but I'm sure it'll be fun times. I agree that Doom 2016 felt very much like a modern remake of the early Doom games as far as gameplay went, with not a...

I think they may have meant "not super" as in, not doing super, considering just about everyone in this movie is bordering on suicidal or at the very least has a huge chip on their shoulder and is depressed.

Unlimited is almost a dirty word for an old SWCCG collector like me because back then the unlimited cards with the white border were considered cheap and too common as they were reprints of the original limited black border cards. I still have the full collection somewhere in two thick binders...

Went and saw it today with the family. We liked it better than most of the last few years MCU stuff except for Deadpool & Wolverine (though I recognize it for what it was, a huge nothing story filled with fanservice and jokes, but that's what I wanted from it). The pacing was good, the 2 hours...

From what I read, they actually did just that for this movie, they hired the guy who created the Na'vi language for Avatar, so they could develop a Yautja language that could be used for further lore / future films. I think the soundtrack of the trailer is actually some kind of Yautja chanting...

You're saying exactly what I'm saying, the best way is practical/prosthetics with CGI touch-ups. Full practical is quite restrictive for some outlandish designs in most cases (though there is some superb work out there by talented make-up artists and prop designers), and full CGI tends to fall...

I wasn't pointing to anyone in this thread, just saying what I've seen online about how "that's not a predator at all". I'm ambivalent on full CGI versus full practical effects. On the one hand I love the original Stan Winston Predator effects and tend to prefer practical effects in general...

I think I would notice the difference, you're probably just desensitized to it. Though to be fair if it's cleverly inserted in the films and the costumes are done well, I'd probably give it a shot just for funsies.

Add a lil' tyke Snoke to Anakin's group of friends in Mos Espa, then he gets hit in the face by one of Sebulba's torn reactors at the end of the pod race, setting him up as the villain seven films later.

I haven't seen it mentioned in the thread though it's explained in a lot of places, but this Predator is supposed to look a bit different because he's the runt of the litter, and was exiled by his clan. The plot of the film is him choosing to reclaim his honor and the acceptance of his clan by...

My bad, completely forgot about those portal stones, I've not read the early books in many years. Thanks for the reminder! As for demand on the books, apparently they've been flying off the shelves in many libraries, and I've seen a lot of people on forums or socials saying they picked up the...

- Portal Stones (I assume you mean the sculpted stone leaves on the archways) weren't removed from the show, we see Loial use them a few times, but the show does not mention the possibility of sealing a waygate permanently so yes it was dumb that he sacrificed himself to destroy a waygate's exit...

While I was surprised at first by the deaths of some of the characters this season, I can understand what they are trying to do because both of those characters after this point in the books go on the bench for literally more than half of the book series, doing very little in the background...
