put that somewhere else, we're talking about john wick

john wick is good, but lets look at it for what it is. a simple excuse for an ex-assassin to re-enter the game. that being said i wouldn't call it braindead and i wouldn't call it not original or innovative. it very much re-invented the wheel with action scenes. it was also extremely stylish...

i would imagine it depends on the location. the one i worked at mall of america we had reps come in every month or so, but the one i worked at in Racine, WI we never had a single rep come in.

yeah it's been a pretty steady decline ever since lol

Yeah, the perks were great there. Specifically at EBX, as it was the flagship store of electronics boutique. After college I worked at a local electronics boutique (that turned into a GameStop) for a bit and it was way different. At EBX we always had reps come in and give us all kinds of...

I used to work at electronics boutique (EBX in mall of America) when I was going to college and we weren't allowed to sell magazines after the new issue came out so we were always left with giant stacks of them. Obviously there were the duds with 500 hours of America online cds but plenty of...

so then why aren't you enjoying it more? womp womp

honestly, what i would do if you're having this much issue is start a homerule where if you yell uno on someone who still has control of more than 1 card, YOU have to draw cards. the "uno" rule is supposed to punish the player who FORGETS to say uno when they go down to 1 card, not be a race to...

you are physically holding 2 cards, one in each physical hand, but your "hand of cards" only has one card.

i'm aware that this is their official twitter, but i profoundly disagree and maintain my previous explanation

no that's not right. it's an order of operations type thing. the person playing their second to last card needs a free period to call uno that the other players aren't allowed to say uno, otherwise it's just creating a chaotic free for all. other players yelling out uno on the other player's...

players have until you take your hand off the card and the next person starts their turn to call uno on you, you can call it anytime between putting the card down and the next person starts their turn. anyone who plays any other kind of rules is just asking for a punch in the face

a friend of mine has never read the books, just saw the trilogy. i don't even know if he saw the hobit movies? when this came out he was super on board with it just from a visual perspective alone. it took him something close to 5 months to watch the whole show and i think he finished it only...

Numenorean, please!

Starships have stealth drives.

i would be too, if i were married to jada

i didn't notice that, i'll have to re-watch that part. however, it being difficult to find is more based on distance more than anything else. a flying creature that large is going to cover a lot of ground, which i think was the intention of showing the mando's run out of fuel.

maybe they just assumed the audience is smart enough that they don't need to hold their hand with every single detail. they don't know where the nest is, so they don't have time to get to their ships (really just bo and din's ship, we haven't seen any other ships of theirs). they immediately...

that's the name of the studio, not the genre.

"andor is such a great show, it's almost single-handedly redeeming all the awful things that star wars has done lately." also "this episode of mando sucked, this is basically just andor 2.0."

i definitely feel like the movie only works in concept. i haven't seen it and don't plan to, but it doesn't sound like i'm missing much. the thing that's awesome about this movie is that it really happened (obviously much differently than the movie). a drug deal went bad and a bear at over half...

grogu in melee is definitely a liability, even with beskar. but give that little guy a blaster and some wrist rockets and it's game on. he's such a small target and with his little flight of the navigator pod he can just start carpet bombing soft targets and it's lights out

that's EXACTLY how i daydreamed mace windu would fight anakin. one of the interesting ideas that star wars presented was how different aliens would swordfight based on their anatomy. we have all these styles and techniques that work because of a specific humanoid anatomy but if you get an alien...

yeah, i don't exactly like the idea of grogu with a lightsaber, at least not for a long time. yoda fighting was one of those "WHOA THIS IS SO COOL!! ... wait... actually in hindsight i hate this" kind of things. grogu as a mandalorian is also kind of the same thing for me. i like the idea in...

i don't think she'll get it back, outside of small moments like episode 2. ultimately i think din is going to be the saber's caretaker until grogu takes the creed

bo-katan gave din the saber back in the last episode. i wasn't looking for it, but i definitely noticed it. when she was wielding it to free din, i was actively wondering if they were going to show her being hesitant to give it back, but when bo-katan set up that campfire with din's stuff laid...

ugh. lame

that doesn't really have anything to do with what i said, though. everyone else seems to be really enjoying mando. you're reasonings for not liking it sound absurd, but maybe you're just struggling to identify what you're not liking about it so you make up ridiculous nonsense about bulldykes...

Have you tried not watching it? Star trek discovery upset me so I just stopped watching it, voila, I'm no longer upset! Or are you one of those people who feels like everything needs to be specially catered to them, and them alone?

I don't really get why you keep saying nothing happened. Many things happened, on top of a bunch of world building on things that have been around for decades but we've never been shown.

i don't remember which thread people were talking about it, but did the Trove.net ever come back in any form?

i never watched any of this, so i can't comment on really anything specific, other than it being an extremely odd IP to bring back. it's not like the movie was a blockbuster, it just had a cool character or two and a cool couple scenes or three. before i knew ANYTHING about the woke nonsense in...

that whole album is amazing

with dr pershing, i got the impression that

Yeah, pine seems exactly on point for a bard, and the paladin already had trailer moments where the whole party thinks he's a badass. That just leaves justice smith and he emasculates himself enough already, so I don't really get that comment from the writers

i read an interview the other day from... i can't remember, the comic book writer who created bane. anyway, someone asked him if we would start seeing less woke things because of how much money the industry is losing because of it and he commented that he's always surprised how the woke crowd...

the thing about ds9 and roddenberry's vision is that it wasn't antithetical, it's that ds9 was literally in deep space. it was a space station that was on the fringes of federation space. the values of the federation are there but so are the values of all the non-utopian powers-that-be that were...

there was a lot of reasons. the differences in viewpoints between roddenbery and the show runners was definitely a part of it. purists had issues with it that have been covered already. but i think ultimately the main issue was that the first season of ds9 was SLLLLLLOOOOOWWWWW. it took the...

i'm going to help you because i'm feeling generous, otherwise no one here is going to do anything but laugh at you. it's not trying to prove anything about gravity, it's demonstrating the effects of air resistance.

i mean, yeah you just said it's not doing well compared to 2 of the highest grossing movies in recent memory. that's my point, we're judging the success of average movies based on movies that made a billion dollars. Edit: i'd argue that the majority of the MCU movies that were making a billion...
