    Interstellar (2014)

    I love all things space opera and hard science, and this movie did not fail to deliver. I find it highly amusing, however, that you also have to kinda-sorta shut off your brain to get the full enjoyment of the movie, not unlike a schlock sci-fi movie. Clearly, the eggheads have a problem with...

    Fury (2014)

    It was an incredible movie partially ruined by a horrible, over-the top, against-all-odds ending. That last stand was retarded. But up until then? Some of the best tank combat represented in a movie in memory. And some great acting. I think Shia is literally insane, but I have some love for...

    Damn how old is the original amine/cartoon, because I am old and I seem to recall this was one of my favorites as a kid - a flying battleship in space - yes please! I did not even know this movie existed.

    Dune (2020)

    Paul Atreides the super white dude........that released a Jihad on the universe. After integrating with the locals, helping to defend them from the colonizers, and then having half-desert babies. Did they ever actually describe him as white in the books? I always thought of him as light...

    Aladdin (2019)

    Sooooooo, are we going to hear cries of black-washing for putting WIll Smith in the role of someone middle-easternererer? Even if he is blue........ If this was already said in jest, I apologize, I did not read the thread.......

    Pet Sematary (2019)

    Seriously - can't writers come up with something fucking original? Although it scared me as a kid, it was a terrible movie overall. The premise is good, the book was okay, but the movie was schlock. Between actors thinking we give two shits about what they think or say outside movies/TV and...

    Resident Evil Whatever - The Final Chapter Well, I watched it from start to finish. It wasn't the worst thing I have seen, but hopefully it is the end of the series. 2/10

    Solo - 5/10 - It was aight, decent story, the only fault being the inevitable pandering lines dropped to tie it all to the Star Wars story. Woody was especially good. Han and Leia 0.5 were not. Is there a Kira (?) dark jedi/Sith in the lore? Although I grew up with Star Wars my fanaticism...

    Fast & Furious Presents: Hobbs & Shaw (2019)

    Bahahaha I can't wait to shut off my brain and enjoy the crap out of this, looks great - with these three guys it will have to be at least worth the price of a ticket. The only way you can fight Statham and the Rock is to create a pretend superhero. Stupidly awesome.

    Polar (2019)

    This thing is transparently two separate movies. I am not sure it was intentional. The stuff with Mads is black, white and gray, slow, plodding, a well acted, decent romp. Everything about the rest of the Syndicate or whatever it is looks like a Stream of someone playing Saints Row - flashy...

    I told you, I have binged A LOT of movies lately. Fine, I will drop it down to the 5 "best".

    Catching up on movies carried by Crave that I have not seen, so I have watched a ton lately. I also have a busy, complex life, so in my dotage I find myself incapable of drumming up the energy to watch anything deep or complex - I don't care to watch a deep retrospective about two gay cowboys...

    Mandy (2018)

    Neato. I will keep an eye on that one. I think I now see where Vandermeer got the inspiration for the Annihilation series of books. Very cool. Should I start reading Lovecraft books? I've read a lot of the old classics like 1984 and War of the Worlds and stuff like that, but never any...

    91st Academy Awards - Hoping to be the most woke Academy Awards ever!

    I haven't tuned in to one of these awards shows in years - I am pretty sure the last one I watched was more than a decade ago, and was purely for the sexytime I was guaranteed afterwards from the woman I was schmoozing at the time. True story. Same reason I used to suffer through the first...

    Give kudos to an actor you can't stand

    Richard Gere, my most hated actor of all time - The Hunting Party was a pretty good movie. Viggo Mortensen - I hate his face and his Kermit the Frog shouting voice in Lord of the Rings, but damn has he made some good movies: The aforementioned LOTRs, The Road, Eastern Promises (wherein he...

    John Wick: Chapter 3 (2019)

    I watched JW2 last night and it was just off a bit. Every fight was about 15% too long. Maybe even a little more. Like they didn't have much of a movie so they said "shit, kill about 35 more guys in this scene, that will stretch it out. The bullet proof suit is a point of contention to some...

    Bioware's "Anthem"

    So this is just EA Warframe? My computer here at work is slogging bad so I only watched bits and pieces of that video. but the moveset and the combat looked like a complete copy of Warframe. And for some bizarre reason I despise Warframe. I tried so hard to like it and just hate it with a...

    Diablo 3 - Reaper of Souls

    Dammit I have tried at least 5 times to get this to work on my computer and failed every time. I think I give up too easy. May have to try again.

    John Wick: Chapter 3 (2019)

    Constantine remains my top guilty pleasure movie of all time. I've watched that movie a dozen times, love it love it, and I don't care how much he varies from the graphic novel source material. Best on screen Satan of all time as well. Even better than the South Park movie, although him...

    John Wick: Chapter 3 (2019)

    The first John Wick was a revenge flick masterpiece - I mean, you layer the loss of a puppy on everything else and you just want him to juice every bad guy in the movie. Which he does. It failed a bit at the end where the only real extended fight was against the softest opponent in the movie...

    Spider-Man: Far from Home (2019)

    So I don't know nothing from comic books (the last comic book I read was in the early 80's and I was an X-Men, Conan, fan back then) but I have read this thread. And let me just say, with respect to Mysterio, the sheer way they have Jake looking in that clip implies he is the villain. Jake G...

    Which games did you enjoy/disliked most in 2018?

    Path of Exile for both. I played it until my eyes bled, but I quit and uninstalled recently with the new league/expansion. Liked: I've been playing the crap out of Terraria and finally made it to the Moon Lord but could not kill him. I've owned that game nearly from the start. Also enjoyed...

    Glass (2019)

    What a tweeeest! Unbreakable was a remarkable movie, with a dark, droning tone that a lot of people try and fail at maintaining in a movie. Sicario, and most of Hold the Dark, have similar tones. I loved all three. And hated most of Shamalamalama's other movies. The Sixth Sense was...

    Velvet Buzzsaw (2019)

    So Nightcrawler was a judgement on the paparazzi. This is a judgement on the art scene? What's next, some weird movie about wine tasters? That preview was confusing. Based on Jake's acting, I am not sure if this is going to be dark and cynically funny or it is going for purposely serious and...

    The Netflix Thread

    Yeah I am a yuuuuuge fan of Mads, but you can see how flat that blonde acts even in 3 second excerpts in the trailer. I won't lie, this is probably one of my favorite genre of movies at the moment (retired hitman revenge flick ell o ell) but I expect this to disappoint. Will watch for sure though.

    Scenes from movies that make you cry?

    Just about half of Dead Man Walking. The English Patient - when he is carrying her body (spoilers) out of the cave and bawling his eyes out, and she is narrating over it with "All I ever wanted was to be in a place like this, with you". The ending scene of Man on Fire (dude I love that friggin...

    Hellboy (2019)

    Well I guess in this movie David Harbour gets to punch all those people he talked about. Looks okay, in an epic special effects kind of way, but I expect it to be full of political shit if Harbour agreed to the role. With his assistants being a black girl and an Asian guy, it is already...

    2036 Origin Unknown (2018)

    I am disappoint after reading all the comments as to the actual content of the movie. Because when I watched the trailer and realized how low budget the movie was, what I was really hoping for was some sort of prequel to Cube - when the preview showed a close-up of the box I was all "That's...

    VR Gaming - Oculus Rift, Playstation VR, HTC Vive

    So here is my frustrating VR story. I bought a Vive about a year ago, installed a couple of games including Elite Dangerous, Subnautica and Everspace. I played the two space games a bit and then tried Subnautica. After about 30 mins in the game I broke out in a cold sweat and took off my...

    Path of Exile

    Welp, this was my earliest exit from a league since 2015 or so. Even earlier than Bestiary. I didn't stop playing PoE, don't be silly, I moved to Standard to finish leveling my PP build to 90 and fill out my now reset Atlas. And deal with 2 full tabs of "old" map inventory. I may go back to...

    Path of Exile

    Hahaha I have a Double Strike build on my list of things I want to try this league (SSF) and do you think through 2 other characters to 70+ I have seen a Vaal Double Strike drop? Of course not. I loathe having to start vaaling regular gems because I only have about 20 vaal orbs to my name and...

    Fortnite - Epic Games - Team Survival/Strategy/Crafting/Combat

    So This whole Alfonso thing - can it possibly appear as more of a money grab? Is he currently using it as a core way of making money/a living? If he was going around doing this ridiculous dance to crowds as his core source of income, then I could see how this would be legit and he should get a...

    Path of Exile

    So I am hoping the new changes to Syndicate are good for me (selfish!). I played an Arc Totem Hiero up to 86 and I am just getting surprise buttsexxed by almost every encounter higher than T6. Admittedly my SSF gear has been behind the curve, and I am still 4L in my set up, but even with 5800...

    Path of Exile

    I typically put a golem in a 4L with CWDT, Immortal Call and Increased Duration. So 3 red and whatever your golem is. The golem is a little fragile if you set it around required level 52, but you keep resummoning. And typically your buff from the golem does not scale all that much above that...

    Godzilla: King of the Monsters (2019)

    Um, okay, that second preview was a FAAAAAAR cry from the first. I am officially chubbing up. If the movie is more like the first preview than the second, I will write a strongly worded letter. But if like the second - Wowza!

    Path of Exile

    Wait, what? FFS. Now I am stuck with an odd number of fucking totems until I manage to find a +1 totem unique. Great. THIS is the issue with the multiple totems support. Edit: Aaaaaaaand just got to your second post. I expect to get the unique before the craft based on that wording. Will...

    Path of Exile

    Also, I note that Delve starts at, what, level 34 or 38 now. And GGG did not change the Azurite drops at lower levels to account for that. You get 5-10 at the initial levels and even down there a ways you are still only picking up 15-20 at like level 40-50. Do I not remember the Azurite...
  40. Slaanesh69

    Path of Exile

    So am I crazy, or did GGG downgrade some of the affixes on gear to account for the increase in power in the crafting table? Or made the T1-3 stuff rarer on drops? I mean, I know it could be shit RNG, but this is the first time in a long while I hit maps with my league starter with sub-par life...
