    Kingsman: The Golden Circle (2017)

    I still enjoyed this movie, but it really could have done a lot more. It took the lazy way out of a ton of stuff and super underused the whole Statesman side of things. I feel like if they'd spent some time making a better script it could have been epic, but it was just alright. There was still...

    Mother! (2017)

    Everything I've heard about this movie is that it's an Aronovsky movie and the people that went to see it don't know what that means so they were disappointed it was not not an Aronovsky movie. I might see it just for the weirdness but it's not high on my list.

    The Orville

    Cartoon Network actually doesn't have the new season free on their site anymore, something passed down from above or something, not sure. But the show creators apparently don't care because they're letting those 24/7 streams on YouTube run nonstop without fuss. Also you can watch them easily on...

    GoT - Is Over, Post Your Drogon Sightings

    The end of season 5 was kind of ahead of the end of book 4/5 so that could mean anything depending how they meant it, and there's also all the unaccounted for characters in the show that either vanished into thin air suddenly or were never introduced in the first place / merged with another...

    Rick and Morty

    I can associate some with Rick, I like the direction they've gone with Morty, but I think Summer might be one of my favorite characters now actually. They've done some really funny bits with her and she seems like the most... grounded? Like "oh well this is nine kinds of crazy fucked up but...

    Kingsman: The Golden Circle (2017)

    I mean, I wasn't taking it for granted. I was going to see it regardless but the trailers looked like it had shark-jumping potential which is saying something considering the first movie. I'm glad to hear positive things.

    Tomb Raider (2018)

    Why is everything super tinted blue or dusty yellow? And why is the released poster one of the single worst posters ever made for any movie ever? Those two things alone are off putting no matter how the rest of the trailer looks.

    Star Trek: Discovery

    I don't know if that was directed at my post but I never said the captains were paragons of virtue, I said the moral dilemmas were ultimately up their decision, for good or evil, and the point is that a lot of the time the choice isn't clear. If the captain is going to just be always wrong in...

    Rick and Morty

    I appreciate what they're trying to do with the Cable bits but I just don't think they do it that well. I prefer Robot Chicken's take on totally random mini-skits by a lot, and this is coming from someone who has re-watched all the R&M episodes like 4-5 times this year alone. It comes off as...

    Middle-earth: Shadow of War (Shadow of Mordor Sequel)

    I 100% the first game and not really fond of rewards being tied to (extensive) collection requirements. If there was like, 1 thing per "region" then sure, that seems fair, but when it's dozens and dozens it needs to be for its' own sake and nothing else. I'm still not buying this until real...

    Rick and Morty

    I'll take random character development episode over random intergalactic cable any day. I don't really enjoy those episodes but I liked this one a lot, maybe not crazy funny but had good moments and a lot of interesting things.

    Star Trek: Discovery

    Difficult / questionable moral choices are like the fucking foundation of Trek. Having the captain not have a major impact on that would be utter absurdity. It's always the person in charge that makes the final call, sometimes after consulting and sometimes just based on their own interpretation...

    PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds

    I dunno if they ever changed it, but also used to be bans didn't get scrubbed from the leaderboards automatically, so a lot of obvious cheaters were banned but still on the top of the board. Kinda dumb.

    Bojack Horseman

    The Portney alliteration gags were great, the first one was insane and I didn't expect them to keep happening. I think Todd being a background character is the best for his character, he does make me laugh occasionally butting in. Pretty much just agree with this statement I guess. Between...

    Marvel Netflix: Defenders

    I was going to go with monk but the archtype monk fills changes depending what game you look at :P So I guess just "dps" instead of "rogue" but he does use stealth to his advantage when he's not being an idiot (which is rare enough)

    Marvel Netflix: Defenders

    So Luke is the tank, DD is the rogue, Jessica is the mage, and IF is the sniper. And Claire is the healer that they retreat to periodically between dungeon runs.

    League Of Legends

    Kinda lame that C9 and FNC (if they win) will get shoved into groups with their region represented already.

    Rick and Morty

    It's absolutely one of the best. It's hard to identify a single other one that does so much so well. I like the Unity and Car Battery ones a ton still. Season 3 is just making writers of every other show look bad at this point. I was thinking about it though, I think R&M found a formula to...

    Bojack Horseman

    I'm about halfway through right now and it's pretty great. Episode 2 was fantastic, the banter was top notch, and the line from the grandfather was out of nowhere amazing.... "If anything, blame the Jews for peeving off Hitler so much" delivered so perfectly too. So many good lines in that...

    Cyberpunk 2077

    Mad Max's game world was pretty fucking huge but also largely not that fun, I'm not sure I see the point of this as a highlight if you don't know the quality of what's inside it :P

    Star Trek: Discovery

    It's almost like if you look for it you can find idiotic articles about anything now. Because there's so goddamn much of it. Maybe best to just ignore the idiot attention whores since that is literally what they're after, attention? If it's really that meaningless there's no point even talking...

    PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds

    Something like 5% probably right now. So 500,000 which will almost surely get filled in by real players at some point here. They claim they have a fix for the botting in the pipeline and there's a patch next week so maybe.

    Star Trek: Discovery

    Ship is fine, looks Starfleet-ish, has a tad too much TNG Klingon cruiser design but not every ship can be super unique. I would defend the shoulder pads if they didn't look hollow, I thought at first they'd have some purpose like power storage or something but yea they just look dumb. They...

    Hearthstone

    I don't think Jade druid will be affected beyond a rounding error. UI is the culprit there. The fact you could knock everything down from 5 to 4 and it would STILL probably be autoinclude shows how strong it is. But really, they could keep everything at 5 but drop the card draw down to 2 or...

    Middle-earth: Shadow of War (Shadow of Mordor Sequel)

    It's a company trying to add gacha grabs into a single player Bat-Creed game, no one should have any doubt in their mind that they are heavily greed motivated. Because obviously.

    PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds

    Grimmz kinda turned it back around the past week or so, more like when I first saw him start playing PUBG. Really seemed to calm down a lot. I also recommend Shroud, Aculite, Anthony_Kongphan, BreaK, all are great

    GoT - Is Over, Post Your Drogon Sightings

    That is so close to being a great bit of writing. Or at least containing some.

    GoT - Is Over, Post Your Drogon Sightings

    Yea I feel the same way about both. Both characters are still kicking around and clearly have room to be more interesting and developed (I still like Arya because I liked book Arya a lot and TV Arya is reasonably close) and they totally dropped the ball, basically making them hapless despite...

    Rick and Morty

    I think the high-school background conversation has happened like once or twice in the show before and I hope they keep doing it, it's one of my favorite "running" gags.

    Blade of the Immortal (2017)

    I love the premise. I also like how it looks like it will show what a preposterous amount 1,000 kills is considering the multiple scenes of ground covered in corpses. It doesn't sound super high after gaming for a while but it really is :P

    PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds

    I know there's a few open custom match makers out there but I really want them to open that up more. I want to do some pistol only matches damnit.

    GoT - Is Over, Post Your Drogon Sightings

    Nothing's too complicated for the writing right now, just omit important stuff and make things happen for no reason and show the flashy / dramatic parts with no build up and you're good to go. They could do that easily enough, and certainly have been, no reason to expect it to magically get...

    The Netflix Thread

    Just want to come in and reiterate the new MST3K episodes are fantastic (although I haven't watched all of them yet). "Cry of the Wild" as a movie legitimately has me concerned for everyone that was involved in making it because there is more than likely some Lovecraftian madness in the air and...

    GoT - Is Over, Post Your Drogon Sightings

    At this point the writers left forgot about more side characters and side plots than there are characters left on screen. It's pretty ridiculous just how much is glossed over, forgotten, or ignored. Some of it (like the Golden Company, maybe, we'll see) can be attributed to shortening things up...

    GoT - Is Over, Post Your Drogon Sightings

    It's been so long since I read the books I completely forgot about this. I actually think this is going to depart entirely from the books then. Show-Aegon probably got merged with show-Jon and the Golden Company is going to just be a fancy sellsword group with no particular ties. The...

    Marvel Netflix: Defenders

    Oh, interesting. They could totally be building up to that, considering that with the Netflix style approach they can basically put out as many new series as they want. I felt like Misty could have been way more developed or consistent as a character so maybe going with their own show would be...

    What stuff with Misty and Colleen are you referring to? Something from the comics?

    GoT - Is Over, Post Your Drogon Sightings

    The problem with the necrodragon is it doesn't have to be bad writing but they haven't given us any hints that it isn't. Maybe they will in several episodes in 2019 or whatever but if you have to explain your questionable story points posthumously you perhaps did not do well in the first...

    Rick and Morty

    That was one of my favorite episodes yet. Although the drone bit at the end is what really got me so maybe it doesn't take that much.
