    Loki

    Fair enough, it wasn't literally just the one reveal. It still dragged on forever and the character progression didn't really make much sense.

    NBA 2020-2021: The Dubs Empire Strikes Back

    Yeah Ayton is really efficient and solid on defense too. He's not Luka but I thought the pick was pretty defensible at the time even if I'd have gone with Luka. Bagley at 2 really feels like Sam Bowie all over again though.

    Loki

    Yeah the first ~ 10 minutes felt like it was building up to something, and then nothing really happened for 30 minutes besides that one reveal.

    NBA 2020-2021: The Dubs Empire Strikes Back

    You realize he was the first pick and Bagley was the 2nd pick right?

    Loki

    Started out fine, then basically not much happened. There wasn't anything that actively irritated me the way sam's speech did for example at least. The revelation about the TVA was a thing though, but it definitely felt like about 3/4 of the episode was literally padding.

    2021 NFL Offseason: QB Carousel Imminent -- Retirement Boogaloo

    You make it sound like him doing a fumble drill means he hasn't been working on his interception stuff. It's not a one or the other thing, i'm sure he's working on both. like are you going to say he should be working on his interceptions when he's in the weight room? or when he's running or...

    He also fumbled a bunch. It's not like he's literally only working on one thing.

    The Suicide Squad (2021)

    Ok, let me rephrase. A director that made maybe the best MCU movie out of Z list shit characters.

    The Suicide Squad (2021)

    Track record for this property and DC movies in general is pretty much dogshit, but with a real director this might have a shot.

    NBA 2020-2021: The Dubs Empire Strikes Back

    Simmons can be really good in the right spot, surround him with shooters and he can slash and he can attack the interior. He just doesn't fit well with Embiid. They both need to be inside to do their best work and it's just too much overlap. He's never really going to be a jump shooter, but...

    MLB 2021 "Hot Stove": Third Time's a Charm for Dodgers

    I mean Angels are 7th in MLB in OBP so that's not really the issue.

    Comic Books

    Death of Superman at the time being the best selling comic of all time definitely lead DC down the rabbit hole of doing what they did with Batman and Green Lantern. Then add in Marvel doing the multiple variant covers thing and Image in particular doing all the silver/gold/platinum covers and...

    Lets talk about our dads

    Interesting to see so many neutral or even negative stories about people's fathers in this thread. Makes me think about my dad breaking out the fungo bat and doing infield drills with me and my friends or taking me and my brother out fishing and hunting all the time. Always appreciated it, but...

    Not talking about taking a 3. Talking about not going for easy layup/dunk type shots and posting up guards and stuff, easy around the rim baskets.

    I really don't understand how someone with as much ability is that dude has just has no desire to basically ever be aggressive on offense. It's totally mind boggling.

    I mean even with the 2 way play I don't think he's better than Trout, but yeah you'd think they'd do something with it.

    Comic Books

    Claremont/Byrne Xmen run is the pinnacle of comics as far as I'm concerned. Diamond Comics are dogshit and shifting to a different distribution is all upside.

    The Matrix Resurrections (2021)

    I like the early HP movies fine but I think Fury road is a classic. It's simple, but that isn't always bad. It just feels a lot like someone saying they'd rather have a five guys burger over a ribeye steak from a high end steak house.

    Loki

    I mean there was a significant change in tone with Ragnarok. They went from being mostly serious to being GotG style silly and it was a good improvement to the character. Hemsworth has better comic timing than you'd think and it worked out rather well.

    Ok so you're on the record now saying that Harry Potter is better than Fury Road and Sicario.

    The Matrix Resurrections (2021)

    My list was post rotk, not post Matrix, i know it's just a few years difference but you'd be including a few more movies on the list at that point including those LotR movies. Again my list didn't include comedies or Comic movies which obviously have been a huge part of cinema in the last...

    NBA 2020-2021: The Dubs Empire Strikes Back

    He couldn't be as efficient as he usually is because of the volume he had to shoot with Harden being on 1.5 legs, Harris being shit this series, and no Kyrie. I still think the Bucks coaching is pretty shit.

    Thor 2 was mediocre and bland. Captain Marvel was aggressively shit.

    So Sicario, Fury Road, Bladerunner 2049, The Departed, Inception, The Social Network, Wolf of Wall Street, Edge of Tomorrow, There Will be Blood, History of Violence, and Munich all came out after RotK so are either woke trash or indi. This list doesn't include any comedies or superhero movies...

    The Matrix Resurrections (2021)

    Sicario was 2015, Fury Road was 2015, Bladerunner 2049 was 2017. I don't think any of those are particularly safe movies.

    The Matrix Resurrections (2021)

    There's been plenty of good movies since then and there's always been lots and lots of shit movies. One noticeable thing that sucks is that there really aren't many original mid budget movies anymore. Most movies are either giant blockbuster movies or small ones without much in between.

    My dad is great. He's in his 70s now. He joined the Air Force as a Combat Controller during Vietnam and sustained a serious training injury that required many surgeries. Instead of collecting disability he stayed in, rode a desk job and eventually retired 20+ years later. He met and...
