    91st Academy Awards - Hoping to be the most woke Academy Awards ever!

    IMAX has put Free Solo and Into the Spider-Verse back into theaters this weekend. Some of the shots in Free Solo are just incredible, and Spider-Verse should be a no brainer fro anyone who hasn't seen it.

    91st Academy Awards - Hoping to be the most woke Academy Awards ever!

    To be clear, I do think the "white savior garbage movie" narrative is overblown. I dont really consider it a white savior movie, but if someone told me they thought it was without being a ragebeast, I probably wouldn't fault them. It is definitely a feel good movie that really doesn't challenge...

    91st Academy Awards - Hoping to be the most woke Academy Awards ever!

    The movie is about the white guy, mostly. And their relationship. Also the writers never actually talked to Dr. Shirley's family, which made them mad (they also don't believe their relationship was this friendly nor that Dr Shirley felt Tony was anything other than an employee to him, but I'm...

    Captain Marvel (2019)

    Minor note, ABC never owned this show. They cancelled it once they had to start paying for it. Fox always owned it (and paid it's production costs for 6 seasons); once season 7 rolled around ABC cancelled it since they would have to foot the bill now and it would obviously be much less...

    Star Wars: The Last Jedi (2017)

    I believe "laser" is star wars is not "LASER" as we know it, but something blaster-related, insomuch that it fires something with some amount of matter to it. Like a plasma bolt or something. Or A Space Wizard did it.

    Assuming it is the actual last match of Mania and Becky scores the pin, I don't really have a problem with Charlotte being in the match. I can't say she hasn't also earned the right to be in the first WM headlining women's match. Rhonda has proven she can hang in the ring, but I think this...

    Ghostbusters : Afterlife

    This doesnt have to be bad. The original cast is too old or dead to carry this movie. The only problem I see with "teens" is Oscar from Ghostbusters 2 would be 30, so teens is a weird age as the cast from the OG movies would probably not have teenage grandchildren, unless they had kids right...

    Ghostbusters : Afterlife

    I probably would have agreed with this, but Ghostbusters is probably my favorite movie and hearing that original score and sounds in the teaser got me drooling in anticipation of whatever disappointment Sony lays at my feet.

    Captain Marvel (2019)

    Yeah I dont think the cut Valk scenes lead her to being a lesbian, but Bi. They didnt replace anything that made the movie, she wanted all the warrior D and V.

    Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse (2018)

    I haven't quite decided, but between the story, animation styles and music, this is probably my favorite super hero movie of the year. Regarding the above article, the movie could definitely be described as "extremely black", if youre a person who wants to do that sort of thing. Of course...

    Yeah, the segment last year with the New Day vs The Usos was good, glad they actually reprised a segment that worked for a change. Bryan vs Mustafa Ali was a cool way to open the show. Charlotte vs Asuka was ok, but between it and the opener, they're really showing why Smackdown is still...

    "Bumblebee" Transformers spin-off starring John Cena

    Yes, I very much meant Live Action Transformers, if that was not clear.

    "Bumblebee" Transformers spin-off starring John Cena

    Just got back from a screening of this and I have to say I liked it a lot. Not a high bar, but easily the best Transformers movie. The opening sequence is the battle for Cybertron and it is easily the best action sequence in any of the movies. Getting Travis Knight greatly helped this film...

    Avengers: Endgame (2019)

    Did the avengers really lose as a group though? Thanos never really faced all of them, nor did their smart guys ever really get a great deal of time to make any sort of plan. And their strong guys either didnt show up or showed up moments before the end, still dealt a major blow. They were so...

    Happy Death Day (2017)

    I really liked the first one. I checked it out thinking "Groundhog day horror movie" could be interesting, even if it was a PG-13 teen slasher. Then I watched it and realized it took itself exactly 0% seriously and it was great for it. I'm kind of excited to see what they do after cranking...

    Fighting with My Family (2019)

    I think Becky has a similar story, but the WWE loves multi generational wrestling families, and Paige (in theory) should have been near the top of the women's division right now, had she not been forced to retire because her neck is so fucked she might die if she takes a bad bump. I assume the...

    Fantastic Beasts: The Crimes of Grindelwald (2018)

    This movie is just evidence that JK really, really needs to hire a screen writer for her movies. The screen writers of the Harry Potter films really trimmed the books pretty well. These movies play out like her books did, side quests and bloat that you don't mind reading, but don't need to be on...

    The Sisters Brothers (2018)

    Probably a non-0 amount, but I don't believe Muslims and Sikhs started arriving in any significant in the American West until the early 1900s (around the same time as the Chinese). Arab Muslims started coming to Mexico in like the 1860s I believe, and again in larger numbers in the 1890s/1900s...

    MTG: Arena

    If you only play standard and limited, potentially. There is no trading, no economy, so its like hearthstone in that there is no Cash Out when youre done. And you cant play legacy or modern. But it is a way more polished program than MTGO could ever hope to be. I cashed out my MTGO account...

    A Star Is Born (2018)

    Well, its a remake of a Barbara Steisand remake of a Judy Garland remake of a 1937 movie, each of which earned at least an Academy Award nomination for its music and the leading lady, so I wouldn't feel too bad for her yet. And as far as the fan screenings, I have nothing really to do next...

    Brie probably should have realized she wrecked her with those 2 kicks and knocked Liv out and subsequently held that pin so that Liv COULDN'T kick out. Or the official should have noticed she was a lump and fast counted. Either way, officials in most matches count like its a real contest, so if...

    Board Games

    I think some of the factions are fine for casual players. But the table will certainly need at least one heavy gamer to police the game, since literally every faction is playing a different game, so one player who knows everything is super helpful. I think the only thing in the base box that...

    Those original plans dont sound like they would have made it much better, but definitely not made it worse. It especially sounds like it would have made it so every time Sterling K Brown's spoke, I didnt have to ask my self "how does he know that?" or "why does he keep referencing halloween or...

    Black Panther (2018)

    I am pretty sure in the background of that scene, you actually see that exact situation play out, where it gets piled on, then kinetic explodes. However, even if they can't kill him, its not like they couldn't over run the city and kill everyone else (plus their goal was just to breach the...

    Star Wars: The Last Jedi (2017)

    Apropos of nothing star wars related, but I do agree with this little tangent. However, there is a big advantage Sly had over anyone else trying to bring a decades old franchise into the modern day and that is that he created and wrote the character originally. Then after he revived the series...

    Won't You Be My Neighbor? (2018)

    That's the thing, his entire show was preaching it to others. He preached the tenants of his faith every day. Treat others well, don't be a miserable piece of shit, etc. If we had more religious leaders like him, and less fear mongers, charlatans trying to separate the dumb and desperate from...

    If you are a channel sub, you should have no ads on that channel (generally), even if it's just your twitch prime sub. It sounds like streamers can turn ads on for subs, but I have never heard of anyone doing that. At worst they run sponsor ads that are injected into their stream, so they...

    Star Wars: The Last Jedi (2017)

    I didn't care about the bombers dropping bombs in space, Star Wars is science fantasy and the science part is loose at best. This is especially true when it comes to the physics of space, right from the jump. The stranger thing to me was the Rebels has 2 god damn bombers already. Why did they...

    Star Wars: The Last Jedi (2017)

    I think it is a combination of context and what is impressive. When youre in an arena and they tell you the turnstile number, it seems even more impressive, because you are all collectively sharing that event together. , that really isn't true for a movie, unless youre seeing an indie movie...

    they also have bears and apes and shit in their nature line (that the dragons are a fantasy off shoot of) that make for good polymorph and just animal bases.

    On the topic of Viticulture, the new Visitors from the Rhine Valley expansion is fantastic. It replaces the visitor cards with new decks that are all engine focused and have near zero (or maybe actual 0) victory points, so you actually have to build an engine of some kind.
