    The Legend of Vox Machina

    well, the hope is that the show does well despite this and allows for more/longer seasons so that they can take their time a little more, as well as open the door for more shows like this

    The Legend of Vox Machina

    last week on their watch party (it's on youtube now, don't bother it's mostly boring) i think matt or travis said the entire briarwood arc was 40+ hours streaming, and they needed to bring that down to like 5 hours. it is, and always will be the problem with this show specifically. they have...

    The Book of Boba Fett

    you know the saying, dont assume conspiracy when stupidity suffices. you're all just trying to find a reason why the first chunk sucked instead of just understanding most people are varying degrees of incompetent. i really don't think pedro's contract played much a part of this.

    Peacemaker

    so like most of us, i wasn't REALLY that interested in a show about ANY of the characters from suicide squad, much less peacemaker, but, again like most of us have been extremely surprised and happy with this show every week. the other day i was just watching some interviews that the cast and...

    it was ahsoka. he didn't even really know about the force with grogu, but someone he knows gave him a brief rundown. by the time he met ahsoka he was somewhat familiar

    The Book of Boba Fett

    he said in response to feeling like an inadequate teacher. he says he's not even really training grogu, grogu is just remembering his old training. ahsoka saying that he was just like his father because anakin, despite all his bravado, felt like an inadequate teacher towards her. it was meant as...

    The Book of Boba Fett

    well, on top of that, luke says that with grogu it's less training and more remembering, so maybe his lesson plan is just being truncated. but yeah, i don't like the choice he's given grogu, i feel like luke is coming across as an oversensitive bad girlfriend

    The Book of Boba Fett

    yeah, i can respect your viewpoint on that... but overall, i think this is the primary issue people are having with the current show. the movies don't give an any answers on this stuff. i just easily assume that vader has worked with bounty hunters in the past, and has a modicum of respect for...

    The Book of Boba Fett

    Just context clues, I guess. We already know that Vader doesn't tolerate insolence. He chokes his own officers out on several occasions. If he's dealing with bounty hunters, it's not because he "has to" in the sense that he's surrounded by idiots. He uses them because they are effective. edit...

    The Book of Boba Fett

    i'm not saying it's an excuse for the show to be boring and shitty. i'm saying that the show ISN'T boring and shitty, but most of us have a very specific idea of who boba fett is because of all the extended universe stuff. but the writers are purposely ignoring all that, they are making a show...

    I Think You Should Leave with Tim Robinson

    i definitely think you need to be in the right mood for most of the series. a lot of it is REALLY dark, atypical humor. this is probably my favorite, not because it's overly funny, but because it's just so... odd. like there's no real context for it. you watch it as part of a comedy sketch show...

    The Book of Boba Fett

    I think the show would be received very differently if it was about a character that people weren't familiar with. Or, I guess that's the problem. It IS about a character that people aren't familiar with. People have a view of boba fett that isn't canon and that the writers aren't making a show...

    The Book of Boba Fett

    honestly i think the primary issue is that there is a certain mythos surrounding boba fett that is almost 100% created by non-canon sources. sure there are moments in the films that really inspire you to think that there's something really special about boba fett... vader is surrounded by the...

    The Legend of Vox Machina

    i THINK part of pike's narrative early on was because their home game was pathfinder. same story, just pathfinder rules. when they swtched to streaming they had JUST switched to 5e dnd rules because pathfinder rules are really chunky with modifiers. a typical pathfinder attack role is basically...

    The Book of Boba Fett

    i think the issue with that village episode was that it was one of several episodes in a row where it felt like it didn't really do anything to move the plot along. i remember actually liking it, but i also have this terrible memory of it that has degraded into this awful B movie monster reveal...

    The Legend of Vox Machina

    yeah, there's a reason why they always knew they'd be doing the briarwood arc. the first two episodes are decent, but i think they are the weakest because they were jamming too much into too short a time frame. the biggest critiques (from both critics and the cast themselves) is that they are...

    The Legend of Vox Machina

    i think initially taliesin as percy was pretty unbearable, but i softened up on him during the briarwood arc. i think part of it was that he was always trying to be the main character and the briarwood arc gave him enough attention that even after the arc, he was satiated. but yes, he is CLEARLY...

    Marvel Universe stuff

    I thought it was less about not ever wanting to work with marvel, and more about the makeup for red skull being miserable. The problem is that he's already red skull so you can't just bring him in for a new character. Sure, they did it with Gemma Chan, but her part in captain marvel was...

    The Legend of Vox Machina

    In campaign one, there were a COUPLE bi-curious characters. Vax had a flirtatious thing going on with Gilmore, but it felt pretty harmless since that came out AFTER he was clearly committed to keyleth. There was a one or two blink and you'll miss it moments where matt had some female characters...

    who? are you talking jango fett? that's boba's "dad" sort of... jango was the template for the clone army and as part of his payment he was given an unmodified clone that he could raise as his son. the rest of the clone army was modified in a bunch of ways to make them function as better...

    The Legend of Vox Machina

    first 3 episodes are out today. was pretty good. they changed some things from the table, but mostly just to streamline the story i think. i'm glad they kept some running gags from the stream. like trinket not actually contributing in ANY possible way and percy's gun jamming every fight.

    that's right, totally forgot they did that. lucas made such a big deal about the fett's not being mandalorians, i don't know why favreau going against the grain didn't stick with me

    The Book of Boba Fett

    it's pretty obvious that she kept it and made some more foundling armor with it, that's what they do. she told mando that beskar weapons are offensive to the clan at large and he specifically said, melt it down for foundling armor. so she used the spearhead to make chainmail for grogu and kept...

    The Book of Boba Fett

    after some clarification from that rebels clip (i've never watched rebels, i honeslty can't get past how the lightsabers in that show look), i watched a couple short clips of some other stuff and i guess the idea is that, yes, he is back with his clan and he was expecting it to be familiar...

    i mean, the whole argument is pedantic. a sword requires a handle. sure i GUESS i can understand the argument that the hilt itself isn't the weapon, but it's PART of a weapon. LISTEN IT'S A STUPID PLOT POINT OKAY LET ME HAVE THIS

    The Book of Boba Fett

    honestly i took it to be less about the darksaber itself being heavy, and just that lightsabers are super awkward to use. people say that lightsabers are weightless but the going theory is that the blade is made of plasma in a magnetic casing. the plasma itself could just be heavy and require a...

    SWTOR

    there are a good chunk of "dungeons" and even a couple raids i think that have "story" difficulty, which means you run through the whole thing solo with some npc's. as far as i know the gear is the same? but again, it's not all the dungeons though, but they do have a group finder so you can just...
