    The Umbrella Academy

    They are actually named in order of their perceived "usefulness" by Reginald Hargreeves, not necessarily power. The question is, usefulness in what scenario.

    The Umbrella Academy

    Holy crap the Ben-Vanya scene from episode 9 just wrecked me. Ben is by far my favorite, his character, the idea of metaphorical "inner demons" in his powers, the mystery surrounding his death, and the actor playing him to be one of my favorite parts of this show. That actor is fucking killing...

    The Umbrella Academy

    I've watched season 1 three times through and it 100% tickles my pickle. I cannot believe it but season 2, especially after ep 6 and 7, is actually better than S1. Fucking awesome.

    The Umbrella Academy

    Season 2 started like gangbusters. Everything I liked about s1 taken to a slightly higher level. First few minutes before the title were perfect. I'm going to savor this one and not binge it.

    Star Wars general purpose movie stuff

    I don't believe most of that but if "Clone Wars and Rebels lore was to be discarded for this trilogy entirely" is even remotely true for anything moving forward even I will turn in my fanboy card. Animated SW has been the best SW in the last 25 years and it ain't even close.

    Star Wars general purpose movie stuff

    Mike Zeroh is the laughingstock of Star Wars leakers. He's been almost completely discredited through his "leaks" of the last couple movies. But if he's right, for once, that will indeed be garbage.

    Disagree with you but respect your opinion. Movie is fun across the board.

    Star Wars general purpose movie stuff

    Buzz out today that Disney signed Donald Glover for a Lando series, with Billy Dee also rumored to be involved. Seems like a SW version of Young Indy series. I'm in, Solo is still in my upper half ranking wise. I'd love to see more of that type of thing.

    Aquarists unite: fish are friends, and food

    After not having any fish for almost 25 years (used to have a 50 gallon reef tank and a 30 gallon fresh water tank) my coworkers gifted me a beta-fish because reasons...anyways, I'm doing well taking care of him the last 4 months but even with regular water cleaning/changes in his 2 gallon tank...

    Star Wars: The Clone Wars

    This wasn't the series I would have hoped for, but as a positive it will leave open the strong possibility of more Ahsoka and Rex action, and keeps it in the era where we could see them incorporate the Dark Disciple storyline. Could even see some stories involving them helping the few surviving...

    The Old Guard (2020)

    Beginning and ending are really solid. There is so much potential for continuation here, they barely scratched the surface of the mythology. Nice job not shooting their wad entirely with this one.

    What We Do in the Shadows

    I work with a Jeff that I have called Jesk for months. No one but a few of us get it but it kills me everytime I do it.

    Definitely my favorite episode of the entire run. Thats some bullshit.

    What We Do in the Shadows

    great season finale. Nadja not having any idea how long humans live, and all the corpses in the house they kept tripping over slayed me.

    Star Wars Novels (Keep your EU shit out of here!)

    more interested in the stuff involving hyperspace lanes and how they were using them then, and the rumored unsettled outer rim wild west type setting. I was actually fairly put off by the character descriptions but I'll give them a chance.

    Star Wars Novels (Keep your EU shit out of here!)

    yeah, I'm not holding my breath on the High Republic stuff although the bones of it sounds interesting.

    Star Wars Novels (Keep your EU shit out of here!)

    absolutely zero chance, although I would think new old republic stuff based on the old stuff is very forthcoming from what I have heard. They know that is where the interest lies.

    Show's been almost unwatchable for 2 seasons, /shrug

    Star Wars: The Clone Wars

    I agree with most of this. The final 4 episodes in nonstop movie format would probably give Empire something to worry very seriously about. It's pretty much perfection.

    What We Do in the Shadows

    Second watch through of the latest episode and it might be in my top 2 now. So much going on and there are at least half a dozen candidates for best line in the show ever. "Once again into the shitpipe!"

    The Mandalorian

    This is true, but his books were among the first of the new canon. Count on it being who you think it is.

    The Mandalorian

    More likely Cobb Vanth, the "sheriff" of a Tatooine town who ended up with Boba Fett's armor after Jawas recovered it from outside the Sarlaac pit. From the Aftermath books.

    Mr. Bungle playing shows in 2020

    This will probably be on the new Bungle LP in a form somewhat similar to this but with Trey, Trevor, and fucking Lombardo, but Charlie and Scott from Anthrax have been killing it on social media through this strange time. Hope you enjoy.

    What We Do in the Shadows

    The Baron from season 1 was pretty much the TV version of Petyr I think, just a little softer around the edges lol

    The Mandalorian

    I will most likely spontaneously ejaculate with intense velocity if both Ahsoka and Sabine appear in the upcoming season. You've been warned.

    The Mandalorian

    TBH I was hoping more he'd be playing Rex again, but still looking like its going to be a wild season 2 adding this to the Ahsoka appearance. https://www.hollywoodreporter.com/heat-vision/mandalorian-finds-boba-fett-temuera-morrison-1293675

    Star Wars: The Clone Wars

    For the record, its not one of the best books in the new canon but it does have its moments, especially if you are a huge Ahsoka fan as I am. A few things from the book actually got contradicted/retconned by the final arc but nothing super major. You do learn how Ahsoka ends up with the...

    Star Wars: The Clone Wars

    That final arc is pretty much as good as Star Wars has ever been. Every element, the animation, music, voice acting, pacing, and story were absolutely top notch. I love how the music changed in the second episode to mirror the moody music in ROTS when Mace was going to confront Palpatine. I felt...

    Star Wars: The Clone Wars

    Rumor is the armorer already showed up in the last ep of the middle arc. 3 mandos, and one of them that spoke sounded a ton like the armorer and wasn't credited at the end.

    Star Wars: The Clone Wars

    Yeah @Gavinmad I'm not sure how I missed out on this now. I thought I was in on all the new canon Marvel SW stuff from the get go. I must have misread some things about this along the way. I stand corrected on the publishing. Pretty good read and definitely caps off a few loose threads heading...

    Star Wars: The Clone Wars

    Its Darkhorse Comics, and was one of the last things published before Disney bought everything. But specifically, things involving the Pykes and Ahsoka's lightsabers colors have been overwritten in the novels and movies since. Like I said, minor changes that don't matter much in the grand scheme...

    Star Wars: The Clone Wars

    I'm holding out until all 4 are out. From what I've heard, Filoni and co wrote and produced this final arc more as a single movie than 4 separate episodes, like everything else they've done. Plus I also have Son of Dathomir being delivered in a few days, and although its not canon anymore it...

    Godzilla: Planet of the Monsters (2017)

    I worked with a girl that did one of the english voiceovers for this and the sequel. Even that connection couldn't make me last more than 15 minutes into it. Fucking terrible.
