    Star Trek Beyond (2016)

    Between this and Age of Apocalypse I expect a repeat of the Spiderman 3 / Pirates of the Caribbean 3 summer where everyone just completely gives up on those properties.

    Seeing that Drtyrm has taken a position similar to mine I would like to formally retract my prior statement and instead agree that getting into eternal formats quote "ain't no big thang" - Heylel 2016

    I guarantee you that the amount of resources that you have invested to enter the eternal formats would look like madness to an outsider.

    Ghostbusters (2016)

    I'm seeing some bits of a good film in there but it just looks like its going to be too jokey plus the jokes aren't great. If it was a bit more serious and a little less live action Scooby Doo I'd be damned interested. I always liked when Mr. Staypuft would make an appearance in the cartoon...

    Is this a multi-player EDH that you are playing in? Anyone who plays multi-player EDH is a crazy person.

    Ghostbusters (2016)

    Right, so I didn't check back in to this thread to see Tanoomba had responded to something I had said. I'm going to go back and quote the last sentence of the post that I made that I don't think he read. In response to Feig - I stand by that. It's a terrible idea for a director to take the low...

    Ghostbusters (2016)

    I had been softening on this movie or time and was thinking about checking it out when it released. I think one of the theaters around me runs a special on Thursdays where the first showing of the day is half off or something so now that the weather's nice I was maybe going to give it a go. With...

    Interview with the Vampire remake

    Boo, I love the original. 1. River Phoenix was going to play the role of the interviewer until he OD'd. Christian Slater did the job for basically nothing. 2. The cover of Sympathy for the Devil was the final straw for Guns and Roses. Axel didn't like Slash's guitar work, sent him a memo to...

    The Video Thread

    Everything about that kids behavior screams out that he has been a victim of repeat abuse. Combine that with a lifetime of poverty and the dropout factory schools he attended and it's going to take more than a Scared Straight program to get him back on track.

    Hearthstone

    I don't think it is likely that new sets will have reprints in them given Blizzard's history and Hearthstone's model but even so I don't think you should decide now to just never play Wild.

    Batman: The Killing Joke (2016)

    Looks a little on the cheap side.

    X-Men: Apocalypse (2016)

    That trailer looks horrible but I liked the other two films enough to go see this one. I'm expecting to leave feeling about the same as I felt leaving the theater from X-3.

    Yesterday or the day before I was watching a bit of Xixo grinding to rank 1 legend with a dude heavy warrior deck. It had a Varian in it and he managed to get rank 1.

    It seems possible that WotC has taken sufficient advantage of its volunteers such that they have crossed into actionable territory.

    Hearthstone

    Ice Block not getting changed is surprising to me. That's a card I definitely would have tinkered with over something like Arcane Golem.

    Hearthstone

    I would have preferred that they kicked all of those cards out of the core set and had them be Wild only rather than the route they've chosen. Those are some huuuuuuge changes. The Blade Flurry change is really unusual. I guess their Future Future League testing showed that Rogue was going to...

    Looks fun even if it isn't going to be a competitive powerhouse, should be many amusing highlight reels with it.

    Batman: The Killing Joke (2016)

    Writers have done the "Joker's come back but THIS time it's different!" story a bunch of times. From the Killing Joke to Grant Morrison's Thin White Duke of Death to the Joker that cut his face off to this latest memetic virus-through-history plague factory that infected all of Gotham with the...

    He stopped being cool when he got kicked off a flight for being too fat and went on to cry about all over the internet. Even if you don't know it that's the exact moment you stopped liking him.

    Batman: The Killing Joke (2016)

    I know that and you know that but the redesign of that character is very clearly trying to drag in younger (and maybe even female) readers who don't really have any idea what is going on. It's not like on the outer cover there's a picture of Batgirl triumphing. It's just this one dark image...

    Batman: The Killing Joke (2016)

    It's a fine variant cover, it just doesn't make much business sense to use it after you'vejustrebooted Barbara into a perky teen college something lol selfies. There she is, right there in her new costume, placed back at her lowest point so we can put over the Joker for the Nth time. They should...

    Batman: The Killing Joke (2016)

    Wanting to do a variant cover that referenced The Killing Joke was fine but I don't think it made any sense to go that route. They had just relaunched the Batgirl comic and went on to immediately bury their own character. They should have gone with something that put over both the Joker for...

    Hearthstone

    Looks fine for arena, good for highlight reels, and constructed unplayable. That's not really a bad place for any card to be in.

    Even if the enforcement has been between spotty and non-existent they've been clear that training was a no-no from the very beginning and people do get randomly popped for doing it. KSing/dps racing/whatever is all 100% fine.

    There's nothing wrong with unloading it all to a store if you don't want to mess around. At any large event there will be stores set up there that do just that so you don't even have to muck about with shipping. I've personally never had a problem with eBay but I know other people have.

    Suicide Squad (2016)

    For me it looks like the opposite. He's just very obviously Will Smith. He's even got the titular line in one of the other trailers.

    Suicide Squad (2016)

    Whoever put that trailer together thinks Will Smith is a bigger star than he is. Harley Quinn is mega popular and she looks very well written. Chance that she steals the entire movie is 100%. When the cash for this starts rolling in the suits will be green lighting a Harley stand alone...
