    Marvel Universe stuff

    they didn't imply anything. mantis straight up said gobots killed drax's cousin. they are officially part of the mcu. thanks obama?

    World of Warcraft: Current Year

    For what it's worth, I use to have a macro set up on my paladin that it would use word of glory on my target's target. In most cases, that would be me, but every so often it would help in group content. However, they made word of glory interfere with my rotation so if I wasn't hurt badly, I...

    That's what falcon and winter soldier was about.

    World of Warcraft: Current Year

    yeah, do the invasion quests and the single daily. on your first day that should net you about 140 or so primals (or whatever they are called) for about 20 minutes of work (travel time not included). the items sell for between 25 and 45 depending on the slot. don't spend any money on any gear...

    World of Warcraft: Current Year

    For shadowlands flying, the biggest issue was the renown barrier to do your covenant quest line, but now renown drops pretty quickly. I hadn't finished the kyrian campaign and wanted to do it during the free weekend. I went from 22 renown to 50 Saturday morning.

    Andor

    I feel like a battered ex-wife with Hollywood. I WANT to enjoy a show but... Somehow I feel like I don't deserve to.

    Andor

    I haven't watched any of this, despite looking forward to it when it was in development. I wanted to, and basically all I've heard is positive, but for some reason as soon as it dropped I lost all interest. I watched all of rings of power despite hating it, but not this... Then it hit me. I...

    Black Adam (2021)

    Well that's what I'm questioning about. When you look at this movie specifically, how can you tell what's successful or not? It had good numbers the first week or two, then has basically slowed down to a crawl. Pre-covid you'd say that's because the movie had terrible word of mouth and it wasn't...

    Glass Onion: A Knives Out Mystery (2022)

    not going to turn this isn't a star wars thread, but i think rian would make a fine star wars movie, as long as he wasn't being forced to use pre-established characters. some of the things that were being talked about in that movie were interesting, if you take out WHO was saying them.

    Black Adam (2021)

    i've never really understood movie projections. i'm sure there's some relatively straightforward explanation on them but i've also never really cared enough to look for that explanation. that being said, i wonder how covid has affected those projections. outside of a few movies like top gun...

    World of Warcraft: Current Year

    there's plenty to complain about when it comes to modern day... well, anything... so it would be easy to sit and complain about all kinds of stuff from blizzard, and plenty of us already have. in that context, i'm not really going to add any fuel to the fire and just point out what i like. i...

    Alien: Romulus (2024)

    we all know the saying, even a broken clock tells the right time once a day... it's entirely possible that we're coming back around to the right time for the wrong reasons. i mean, i doubt it, but it's possible

    Funny, Strange, Random Pics

    minor correction, not to be one of those akshually guys, but because i just found out about it a few months ago and thought it was pretty interesting... but those waves aren't because it's breaking the sound barrier, rather it's ramping up to break the sound barrier. once it actually BREAKS the...

    Dave Chappelle

    From what I read (though who knows), thats a normal thing Chappelle does. However, that doesn't mean it's not approved. It's entirely possible that he and Lorne have some agreement going on. It might even be a normal thing for other hosts as well. Think about it like a rehearsal wedding. Every...

    Hugh Jackman: Logan

    logan is one of those movies that i rewatch every few years. it's just a great movie and as a man growing older every time i look in the mirror, it really speaks to me and what legacy i'm going to eventually leave behind. on the surface it's just a silly comic book movie about a guy with knife...

    The D&D thread

    divine soul sorc is... fine. you'll have a little bit of healing that you can play around with metamagic and sorcery points with but you'll end up having the same issue as the paladin in that you are an offensive caster that is saving spells to heal instead of what your class is designed to do...

    The Mandalorian

    yeah, she's got a great smile and i really like how chill she seems to be. i'd love to grab dinner with her (there's a fat joke in there, but i choose to be better), but like i said, she's not really doing it for me anymore so i'd actually listen to what she had to say instead of just mentally...

    the comment you quoted said he'd been sick for a while, but hid it so he could keep doing cons. maybe it was suddenly related?

    DC Universe (Batman vs Superman thread).

    Little late, but I don't don't why raynor doesn't get more love. I've always thought he was a perfect green lantern because of how creative his constructs were Edit: also for what it's worth, Stewart is bland but he definitely represents the authoritative side of the lantern corps, as well as...

    The Mandalorian

    listen, sammo hung has always been a big fat guy, but i'd never want to get in a fight with the guy. yes, the average overweight person isn't believable as an action star, but there are certain people who know how to use their bodies and gina is one of them. yes she's put some weight on and...

    Westworld

    Yeah, season 1 was great for water cooler conversation, but by the end of the season it was clear that the writers had a great sandbox but didn't really know what to do with it. It feels like the reason things fell apart was because they left the park but no matter what happened it would have...

    Outer Range

    Late response and all... I took my girls (7 and 9) to the New York state fair over the summer... Very first thing we did was talk about a plan in case we somehow got separated. Here's where you should go if you get lost, those are the people that it's okay to talk to if you get lost... They...

    yeah, i think they all had the same agent or whatever. lou perlman that stole all kinds of money from his clients.

    Gotham Knights new Batman game from Warner Bros Montreal

    i wasn't using saints row as a quality marker, just responding to someone else who commented that they thought saints row was better. listen, it's not a good game. it's not awful, but it's not good either.

    Obi-Wan Kenobi

    my guess on this... because you're right he should be getting copyright struck all day long... even though it's considered parody and legally totally fair play, that never seems to stop big names from copyright striking... i've noticed that they seem to be MUCH more bent out of shape about audio...

    Gotham Knights new Batman game from Warner Bros Montreal

    for what it's worth, any third person batman game is going to be instantly compared to the arkham games. that's a testament to those games and how iconic they were. it's perfectly fair to compare this game to the arkham games, but in most cases, any comparison is going to be lopsided. after...

    Rings of Power: Tolkien's Shambling Skinsuit

    Just read some interview with the show runners where they talked about how clever they were for hinting halbrand is sauron in the very first episode. Can't wait till they show us their circle jerk at how amazing they think they are when they finally show that the stranger is gandalf.

    Gotham Knights new Batman game from Warner Bros Montreal

    I've watched some videos here and there, I feel like I watched a decent spread throughout the game's story and the voice acting does nothing for me. Maybe it's less about their skill level (which seems adequate) and more about their voices themselves feeling grating... It was the same with...

    Thor: Love and Thunder (2021)

    i mean, you are bringing up one of the most legendary comedians to have ever existed in a manner that would suggest that anyone can make cancer funny. norm macdonald is the exception that proves the rule

    Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantumania (2023)

    Yeah basically. I mean I get why they did it, they wanted to show certain "cinematic" moments to get people hyped, but didn't want to give away certain plot points. I can see why that might bother people but ultimately I can't be offended because trailers that give away the movie are awful

    Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantumania (2023)

    In most cases, yes. It's usually a case of showing whatever's finished enough to put out there, but there are specific mcu movies that put in shots that were never meant to be in the movie. Infinity war showing hulk fighting in wakanda that narratively couldn't have happened, endgame removing...

    Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantumania (2023)

    i mean, that's not a new concept. deleted scenes have been put in trailers for as long as i can remember. granted, end game specifically put in edited scenes that were never meant to be in the movie, but i don't know if i would call it a "scam" also stop being the fun police

    Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantumania (2023)

    gotta admit, the people putting trailers together for the mcu have been pretty great. especially lately where the trailers are significantly better than the movies

    Rings of Power: Tolkien's Shambling Skinsuit

    yeah, it makes it feel like it's not more than a few months really, but your right, it was a long time that he was gone. the movies portray the hobbits as basically young adults but they were grown men. bilbo celebrating his 111th birthday wasn't exactly unheard of it, but it was pretty rare...

    Blade of the 47 Ronin (2022)

    wow. this is a sequel to 47 ronin? the one with keanu reeves? i was watching this and thinking, oh, mark dacascos, this is a pretty heavy fall from john wick 3, and then anna akana calls him a john wick rip off =( poor guy. yeah, anna anaka is hot and all, but i'm not watching this.

    Rings of Power: Tolkien's Shambling Skinsuit

    YEARS ago i worked for a year at an inner city middle school in what was highly regarded as the poorest school district in the city. it was the first time i had ever heard the term "thot" and the kids said it ALL. THE. TIME. half the time they weren't even using it in the right context. i...
