    Are there polar bears in this? I really liked the polar bears in the film.

    Edge of Tomorrow (2014)

    Cage performed better in attempts where he didn't know what was going on. The dude can really fucking move when he thinks it's all or nothing.

    Edge of Tomorrow (2014)

    If you scroll through the thread waaaaay back you'll see a post by me of the same thing. One of the dudes I see movies with came up with that explanation walking out of the theater (the ass) and it basically fixes the entire last act. I'm not saying it's intended or anything but it fits so well...

    Edge of Tomorrow (2014)

    When she taunts Cage about how long it took him to get out of the stretcher (that she was already out of lightning quick due to several repetitions of practice) she has her full powers. We see the antenna monster that powered her back up a little later on. The entire final action sequence where...

    Edge of Tomorrow (2014)

    The book is really good and just different enough to be also be worth your time if you've seen the movie. Reminder that in the last act of the film the Full Metal Bitch has her powers back and has been looping for a while trying to get Cage through the last action sequence without him turning...

    World of Warcraft: Current Year

    I still say go hipster and select no covenant. Also probably gotta make three more Demon Hunters while they still start out boosted.

    Murderhobos.

    If I found myself having to run an open table I'd 100% murder bitches but goddamn does that sound unappealing. I guess as a favor as part of a promotional thing for a store? I've played in a few long running "anyone who walks in the door" type of campaigns and they can have some charm but...

    Is the game not comprised of your friends and by extension people you want to spend time with in a collective activity?

    Everquest TLP - Aradune and Rizlona Servers (Now with real customer service)

    There is definitely a trajectory of commodification as these servers continue. With each new TLP a few more camps and a few more items get added to the sweatshop assembly line. It's gotten real, real tough to be anywhere or do anything that's pretty decent and not see people. Previously fringe...

    Patrick Rothfuss Kingkiller Chronicles

    The King he kills is his rival Ambrose after he climbs the line of succession, Denna's patron is one of the Seven, Bredon (the cool noble that takes Kvothe the game of Tak) is one of the Seven, maybe the same one and a bunch of other characters are also secretly other people. Kvothe had his...

    World of Warcraft: Current Year

    Having systems that you have been carrying forward for a number of years and wanting to be free of them I can completely get, clean slate and all that. The players that have been collecting and upgrading heirlooms are going to feel like they've had something taken away from them which is true.

    This comic is months old and even when it was new the issues it addresses were themselves months old but we're still just trucking forward like everyone doesn't know exactly how it is going to turn out.

    Covenants cannot be changed -> they can be changed but it is very hard -> they can be changed and its no big thing. Look at all that content we've stretched out. "What we are seeing at the high end is players with four of the same character class just so they can have each covenant available...

    There needs to be something in between intentional training intended to wipe or push someone out of an area and the perfectly normal situations where something cocks up. Right now it sounds like they gave quite a few people week vacations on some fairly small shit.

    It's just that the Intendant, her mirror, is exactly Lady Gul Dukat. The person she hates the most in the universe is her. That would fuck with your head.

    Two different actresses play Ziyal but I don't remember either looking underage. That one has some damned fucked up subtext for Major Kira. Dealt a different hand you would have been exactly Gul Dukat.

    A Song of Ice and Fire (Released Spoilers)

    She's had a villain's trajectory since book one but it was so absent from the show I get why everyone was surprised. Hell, from watching the show I was pretty sure my impressions on the character were just flat wrong. From the show I thought what we were going to get was the birth of a new age...

    At least with Game of Thrones there's a lot of people in the same boat. It would be the way worse to be permanently salty over something like Dune novels Frank Herbert's kid had made after his death. Ain't no one going to have any idea what the fuck you are even on about. Three and four are...

    On the extra features of that season's DVDs she says that she begged for Dax to die in that episode rather than the finale. Everyone already knew she was leaving including herself.

    The only thing I can come up with Ira Steven Behr (the dyed beard guy) wanted Gul Dukat to kill the character so people stopped cheering for him.

    While I hate that ending to this day and will still randomly bitch about it the Dark Tower was also an immunization against further disappointment of that scale. It's much, much easier for me to be happy with what I've gotten even if everything turns to complete shit somewhere along the way. A...
