    Thor: Ragnarok (2017)

    Ok just saw it. first impression was TOOOOOO Jokey. Just over saturated with the attempts at lulz. However, I did love Goldblum and the Rock guy. Great fight scenes with Thor and Hulk. Good power up of Thor but man the little electric disk thing was lame. Once or twice ok, I get that it's...

    Monster Hunter: World

    While leveling should I bother with anything other than the assigned quests?

    Monster Hunter: World

    Any weapons that are more mainstream and popular? Or generally agreed on as being solid weapons? I've tried the Long Sword Katana which was pretty good. Also the Great Sword which I actually kicked ass with but the movement is sloooow. Now I'm looking at this Charged Blade thing, which is...

    Monster Hunter: World

    Right all weapons are different but is it a playstyle preference or are say hammers better vrs certain types of monsters, swords others.

    Monster Hunter: World

    Ok so yeah, can someone give me a good new player guide on this beast. I'm playing with my brother and I'm just barely past the intro, I think the second quest. All I want to know is the bigger concept stuff of killing shit. So far it seems like: 1. L2P noob - Figure out weapon combos and...

    Justice League (2017)

    They rarely bother making a fucking movie. They just throw heroes on screen, halfass some back story, and they fight shit. Wonder Woman basically cut and paste Captain America The First Avenger and it was their best movie by far since the Chris Nolan Batman movies. I get it that they are...

    Kevin Smith Suffers Massive Heart Attack (Feb '18).

    Ha well it's more like... you're heading for a heart attack. Might not be tomorrow but you already have symptoms and we see the blockages. It's in your future if you do nothing. Get this now while you still can, and recover relatively easily. If you wait a year and your health isn't as good...

    Kevin Smith Suffers Massive Heart Attack (Feb '18).

    Crazy shit. My dad just went in last Friday for a triple bypass. He's 72. And he only did it because it was suggested, not like a heart attack was imminent and you have to do this immediately or die. There are tons of tests for these things. I wonder if he's going to a cardiologist or just...

    Justice League (2017)

    Yeah I guess I was ok with Bats using a gun. I'm just not feeling the struggle for him to transition into working on a team. It could have been a good arc for him but they kinda ignore it. Superman's power level was always ridiculous and that's his biggest flaw. It's worse when he just...

    Justice League (2017)

    Just finished watching it. Terrible. Wonder Woman is their entire brand right now. She is great and all the rest of them suck imo.

    The F*** Cancer Thread

    I just wanted to share this video here. I wont go into a long story, but the bottom line is, a few months ago, my mother was healthy one day, felt "tired" the next with a bit of pain in her leg. Went to get checked out. Smash cut to hospitalized the next day, diagnosed with acute myloid...

    Doctor Who

    I knew Nebula but not Jumanji. Havent seen that yet. Yeah she's hot for sure. And 5'11? Super hot. Like a better Jennifer Lawrence type. Nebula is really pivotal in the Infinity War comics if I'm remembering right? Just change it so she is not a zombie, make her look like she was...

    Doctor Who

    First episode of the 11th (?) doctor was really good. The Matt Smith one with Amy Pond. Really great story on how they meet, I definitely liked it. He seems good so far and she is super hot.

    Doctor Who

    There was one episode where they are fighting the Sontarans I think, he was just being a dick to the British Military commander. Giving him shit for trying to defend people and carrying a gun and saluting. Anyway! Saw the last episode now where he DID use a gun, but of course they wrote him...

    Doctor Who

    Yeah Tennant stuff like I said just seems very contrived. I liked all the characters it just seemed like a quota system. I saw the one Capaldi episode... actually maybe 2? And I was eh with it. Seems clear they are done with the dynamic of the companion falling for the Dr ... but he is aloof...

    Doctor Who

    Ok yeah i was kind of thinking he is heading for a reckoning. I'll find out soon I suppose. I'm going to introduce my wife to it. She digs sci-fi stuff. I guess I'll start with "Rose" episode with that Eccleston guy, only because Rose seems pivotal and you get the whole Tardis introduction I...

    Doctor Who

    Still digging this show. I'm almost at the end of the David Tennant era I believe. It's the "Specials" series where he's kind of alone. Some of the social justice or generally political stuff is mildly annoying but it's not terrible. The Dr constantly complaining about guns and saluting...

    Doctor Who

    I'm just randomly jumping into this series. I've settled on the one with David Tennant and the girls name is Martha Jones. I've only seen one episode but it was fun so I'll continue on with this series. Any other particular Doctor/Sidekick match ups that were really good?

    Star Wars: The Last Jedi (2017)

    You know I'll actually give you that. Purely as a movie yeah it's pretty good. Not great, but visually tremendous in a lot of places and has some good action scenes. I even like some of the characters. It's got a zillion plot holes. It's disjointed and full of contrived bullshit. There are...

    Star Wars: The Last Jedi (2017)

    So here is my tinfoil hat question: Did it come down from Disney/Lucas/Whoever that they needed to make Rey a badass who doesn't need anyone's help. Period. I mean I am just wondering if that was something explicitly said to the directors and had a lot to do with these creative differences...

    Star Wars: The Last Jedi (2017)

    It's fine for him to be cut off from the force. What's not fine is the execution, direction and story telling of the character. I don't buy that Rian was hemmed into this direction by Han Solos death. All those posts were the author filling in enormous gaping chasms of plot holes with his own...

    Star Wars: The Last Jedi (2017)

    This latest movie honestly has me hoping the franchise just fucking tanks completely. Force Awakens I thought was good, possibly even very good. Although it had serious flaws it was well beyond the prequels. I really liked Rey, Finn, Poe and Kylo Ren in TFA. That's an enormous accomplishment...

    Star Wars: The Last Jedi (2017)

    Its not evem that it wasnt funny. I laughed. Kind of like Yoda saying "concentraaaaate!" In the originals as he falls because Luke drops him. There's just no gravity counterbalancing it. Training her in any meaningful way is at best an afterthought. Yoda tosses it out completely.

    Star Wars: The Last Jedi (2017)

    Rustled by a friend of a friend who is arguing Luke had a "great arc", was "sick of all the Jedi BS' and didn't really try to kill Ben Solo. The only Jedi experiences he had were with Obi Wan, Yoda and his father whom he successfully saved. I mean holy fuck. I can forgive so much of this...

    Star Wars: The Last Jedi (2017)

    They had it right with a new Sith lord, fine with him turning Ben Solo. They just decided to skip any motivations for either character and Snokes entire backstory. The First Order could have been a more guerilla fighter type underdog rather than just thrown in there with planet size weapons and...

    Star Wars: The Last Jedi (2017)

    He really laid out why it was extra retarded for Captain purple hair to not tell Poe anything. This guy is not only their best pilot, this is the guy that blew up the starkiller thing in the last movie and the dreadnaught thing in this one. I can get behind the "You don't have to always blow...

    Star Wars: The Last Jedi (2017)

    Oh yeah crystal dogs... I was fine with them in principle because they were used for the plot. CGI was meh on them. Speaking of CGI animals, that entire save the animals thing was super cringe too. The whole casino part should have been cut although I guess they couldn't because that's what...

    Star Wars: The Last Jedi (2017)

    Ok finally saw this yesterday. Just wanted to get down quick thoughts then I'll read this thread. Super Leia flying back and surviving bothered me. Whole "rich people suck" sequence in the casino was cringe. That has to be a meme "Only way you can be this rich is X" substitute "arms dealer...

    Retail Apocalypse aka The E-Commerce Thread

    It's just a huge paradigm shift from big box to online. I sell on Amazon, I love competing against big brands because they do not understand Amazon yet. They are catching on so it's getting a tiny bit more difficult. However they can't be nearly as nimble and their customer service is...

    Oh I forgot about that Ghost thing. I guess I should look into doing that. I like the events in this game. Although this gift thing is fucking grindy. I had kill 20 minotaurs and 3 dusklight crystals. Took a fair amount of time. No way I'm doing that on 3 characters every day. The armor...

    Masterwork Uriels Gift to go with my Master Nameless Midnight. Oh yeah. Still no Positive Outlook.

    Destiny 2 - Clan Link 1st Post

    Damn. Oh well. I'm having decent luck with masterworks at least. I have 6 including a Nameless Midnight and Last Hope and I'm not really playing too much. I'm somehow out of glimmer though. Too much dicking around with shaders I think.

    Destiny 2 - Clan Link 1st Post

    What is a good Energy weapon to pair with Nameless Midnight in PvE specifically. What is everyone using? I am committed to Nameless in kinetic, or possibly Better Devils. Energy I really like Uriels in PvP but i feel like it's not as great in PvE.

    Master Nameless Midnight and Solemn Hymn. I'm very happy with the Nameless, but not sure what the possible rolls are yet. Mine has 10 Reload which I like. Edit ok this guy details it. I'll just roll with it for now:

    I'm sure I'll get sick of them very very soon but for now I'm glad Heroic Strikes are back in.
