Cryptic / Perfect Worlds got just railed by the collosal design failure that was Magic Legends. Hopefully Gearbox can provide at least some oversight to avoid such glaring mistakes in the future.

Yes. The parts of BL3 that had nothing to do with the main plot were generally quite good. Plus the gameplay itself was decent. This is why I am optimistic about Wonderlands.

I was the only one who cheered at the brick catching scene made me sad :(

Okay that's cheating. Its TRUE, but still cheating. I'm as queer as a 3-dollar bill but good lord Yelena Belova is an amazing character. Florence Pugh is definitely going places so hopefully Feige and company have locked her down with a long term but mutually lucrative commitment.

If that's the case then why are all the dudes hideous as well?

How cool is it that not only is he there, but an Avenger is actively worried about his involvement? Even if it's not a 100% universe incorporation it still validates Daredevil etc.

On a similar subject : Dungeons & Dragons: Wizards of the Coast Removes Problematic Lore This seems to be an overreaction... a very large overreaction. Beholders are bad! Its good to have an example of bad!

Yelena Belova is so goddamn fun. Florence Pugh is a gem.

Maybe all of this will convince Sanderson to take an animated approach if they ever do a Stormlight or Mistborn adaptation

So, like, we are all in agreement that Vera Farmiga's character is the Swordsman in the MCU? Because that bitch is being shady as fuck meanwhile Dusquene is just awkwardly enthusiastic.

It's a very distinctive sound. I used to play with headphones on and didn't even notice that the controller was making the sound until my fiance came downstairs and asked what the hell I was doing.

I was a teenager when I read the Incarnations of Immortality and thought they were fun romps. Reading them again as an adult makes me cringe.

Can we discuss what's wrong with Liandrin's face? She looks less 'ageless' and more 'addicted to cosmetic surgery'

Yeah then you couldn't have someone rage-quit a dungeon because people don't know the routes less than 3 hours after the expansion launches.

Episode 1 is now live.

Cutscene actually froze the vid for me... was hardly the 'next gen' experience I was expecting. So far it seems very --- Xbox One.

https://deadline.com/2021/12/invasion-renewed-season-2-apple-1234887049/ Dear God why? Are there family members being held hostage? Do we need Liam Neeson to deal with this?

Something that occured to me when they first announced the adaptation is that Wheel of Time was revolutionary at the time it was written, but that's because it was coming on the heels of stuff like Dragonlance, Piers Anthony, or some of the more godawful Forgotten Realms paperback novels...

Well the 6 part series 'The Flux' has now concluded. What a bunch of horseshit THAT was. Chinballs through plot after plot after plot into a pot and then once it started to boil over he decided to add more plot. And none of it was good. The only redeeming feature was the one episode where...

I forgot she was Vi too. Hawkeye, Spiderverse and Arcane...she is really having a moment.

The whole seven rings bit was just stupid. Even seeing a single ring would be proof enough that this fucknut is likely to kill you and thus you are free to eradicate the bitch. Not to mention the myriad of defensive weaves that anyone raised to a full shawl should know and use whenever they...

It's the whole patrician class of professional board members who exist solely to make sure they stay on top of the pecking order. There's not a goddamn CEO or board member on this planet that is actually worth a damn...they know if they start turning on each other it's only a matter of time...

What kinda Snidley Whiplash bullshit is this?

That seems likely. There's so much story fail throughout the last couple of expansions that it makes sense that it came down to dick waving creatives. Ultimately there is no redemption for Sylvanas at this point. At best she tried to kill all the Night Elves in order to 'stop death', at worst...

In the 1940s they only had a rudimentary concept of faster than light travel so Asimov wisely chose to just ignore details like that most of the time. There were no ideas about jump-ships, most of that sort of notion only comes about in fiction after people are savvy enough to realize what a...

After 5 of 6 parts of the Flux I still have no bloody idea what's going on. It feels like a JJ Abrams Mystery Box on steroids what with all the new characters and coy references to things that are literally impossible to know since they are technically foreshadowing. This whole thing feels...

I was just wondering what their whole plan was at that point. For people allegedly traveling hard to reach the White Tower they seem to have settled down with extremely elaborate tents etc. They even mentioned shielding Logain in shifts of two at a time and had clearly gone through all 6...

If it has to tie back to something I'd actually prefer it did not involve something we've already seen. Too much of Federation history is dominated by Enterprise / Voyager / DS9 as is.

Or just making incredibly poor choices when they adapt an idea. I'm positive any number of people on this forum alone could take every art asset, dungeon layout, and system used in Shadowlands and craft a better overall story / lore than what was done.

Decent season. Ended the series on a surprisingly uplifting note. Glad they brought back Nguyen for a couple bits.

Well episode 4 was much better. It's still not anywhere near Expanse or Arcane etc., But it's better than the LARP recruiting video from the previous episodes. The audience is meant to think 'hey maybe Nynaeve is the Dragon', but it's just to reinforce that she's just a fuckton stronger with...

Yeah she is definitely having a moment right now...

That musical number was delightfully cringe.

Watched first two episodes. Guessing each episode is a day since it's 6 days to Xmas in the first episode. Entertaining enough so far. Did not notice/recall that Vera Farmiga is in It and she's always fun to have around. Kate Bishop is a fun character, no complaints so far.

Quite possible, but anamorphic widescreen is 2.39:1, which is effectively the same and yet just a bit different enough that I was reminded about the discussion above of mobile media as a default platform. Certainly their goal is to achieve art regardless.

Random thought I had -- The series is in a 2.35:1 aspect ratio which means its actually more native on a horizontal landscape phone than it is a traditional 4K TV

Mat, Perrin and Rand aren't exactly lookers either..

This just killed me. The fact that they got him to do this and then didn't say a fucking thing until the episode was released is...*chef's kiss* I have now resorted to extortion to get people to watch this. So far its been rather successful as I just got a phone call from a friend who is...
