    Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker

    It takes the second film before Luke moves any object with the force at all and even then he's staring death by yeti right in the face. The prequels are heavily at fault emphasizing all the fancy acrobatics and mind powers versus what Ben and Yoda teach Luke and what Vader says/does. I've always...

    World of Warcraft: Classic

    I'm regretting not doing any AVs until the weekend. It feels like all the fast wins and loses have come to a close as people finished out their rep grind. Every game from late Sunday evening and now this afternoon has been really bad with no rep from Galv and a loss that takes more time than it...

    What did you just read?

    There's a bad trope that I think originated in anime in where a character is presented as childlike in appearance but is totally legal. Oh yeah, that loli is 100% a 2000 year old dragon that just happened to take that particular form. I couldn't not think of that with Fizzy. Her journey is...

    World of Warcraft: Classic

    Did 51 - 52 and up to Reverered with only a single person getting mouthy about my level and/or shitter mount and that was mostly because I snowballed him off a tower. The community has vastly exceeded my expectations.

    Best Terminator story in years, laughed hard a couple of times. They're good lines but I feel like they are being delivered by Dan Harmon to me personally.

    What did you just read?

    Finished all of the Everybody Loves Large Chests books, 1-4. The NC-17 stuff is the weakest part of the series and make it hard to recommend to people I actually know in the physical. As time goes on the books are better written and that stuff is a smaller and smaller percentage of what is...

    Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker

    It sounds like we're going to get the FF4 ending where all is lost before the omni-bad as a parade of all the people we've met appear to give their power to the fallen hero. I doubt it is going to have quite as much Meteo as I would like however.

    Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker

    Using a panorama of past characters to put over your new hero as she takes down a villain we weren't even aware was on the table is so odd. I guess it fits JJ Abrams but I still find it odd. Also -

    It Comes at Night (2017)

    It Comes at Night, aside from the marketing and title giving you an impression that things come at night (they don't) is alright but it's got this annoying gimmick baked in to the story that really held it back for me. The film doesn't come out and tell you anything. Everything is kept...

    The Red Letter Media Appreciation Thread

    I didn't realize how tired I was of him until the mood whiplash I felt from starting the video to his appearance. Sweet, one of their goofy themed Christmas episodes! Oh, it's ruined. I haven't finished it yet but them picking Silent Night Deadly Night 2 feels like they cheated a little to help...

    World of Warcraft: Classic

    It is unfortunate (predictable, yet unfortunate) that a big part of the Classic experience has been watching every single thing gamed as absolutely hard as possible and then seeing the consequences when these very old systems are pushed to their limit.

    The D&D thread

    It was originally a competition module. I honestly wouldn't recommend it to anyone running a campaign where story was in the front seat and player character deaths were rare. I can't see ever running a first edition campaign but should something really unlikely occur I'd want to run it as some...

    Flow My Tears was like an awesome premise and setting but you spend almost all of the book with the main character having long conversations that are not very interesting.

    I just rewatched that a month or so ago and it definitely still holds up. It suffers a little bit from tone whiplash as it is both very funny and very dark at times but I think it really pulls it off. If you've never seen Emperor of the North I would recommend that one to you. Lee Marvin is...

    World of Warcraft: Classic

    I found the loot system to be utterly joyless. A box pops up, you are obligated on each relevant drop to select whether it is an upgrade or your best in slot, and it is handed out. Fair? You betcha. It also completely removes any agency on behalf of the player. If someone was so inclined to do...

    The Island (2005)

    The Island is a complete ripoff of Parts : The Clonus Horror. I'm not even joking either. The entire premise and a bunch of the story is copy/pasted. I first saw Parts after The Island and was positive that The Island was just a big budget remake of it. Oh, it's the same movie. That's sorta...

    The forum guild's loot council is in the running for "most fairly operated loot council I've dealt with" which is nice. Loot in general seems pretty shitty however. Getting one shot at MC a week with a whole bunch of people interested in whatever you're interested in is unfortunate but just...
