    Marvel's Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.

    Weird start. I liked it, but felt off a bit. Coulson stuff was good, Secret Warriors stuff was meh. Looking forward to the Coulson Talbot banter.

    Star Trek: Discovery

    I guess I meant what they are try to do with movies now. "Holy shit Deadpool made money! R rated Wolverine! R rated Superman! What other movies can we make R rated?" My main point was TV though... GoT has been out for 5-6 years now and there are so many shows trying to be the next GoT. But...

    Star Wars: The Force Awakens (2015)

    I think the movie theme will start to explore the strength of using both sides of the force. The Sith uses the Dark side, and it's powerful, but they were eventually beaten. Jedi use the light side, but prove ineffective.

    Star Trek: Discovery

    I hope I'm wrong, because TNG and DS9 are two of my favorite shows, but I think Star Trek is past it's time. You have us nerds who will watch, but studios want more than just nerds. They want Joe and Jane Random to boost rating numbers. That why we ended up with the JJ movies. More action, more...

    Star Wars: The Force Awakens (2015)

    Costume and CGI were awesome. Rest was ok. Perm jedi and Iwanna-Be Kanobi were a little over the top.

    The Shannara Chronicles

    The use of the Elfstones in this show was more like how Wil's dad, Shea, used them in LotR... I mean Sword of Shannara. Wil's use of them in the book is similar, but after removing a mental block, his overuse of them towards the end to protect Amberle effectively saturates his body with the...

    Fuller House

    Watched 7 episodes with the wife so far. Overall a pretty solid show. It would never thrive on a major network though. My biggest issue is Candace Cameron. After seeing her on DWTS, all I can see and hear is Jesus Jesus love the Lord and my faith and family. So when she makes an adult joke it...

    The Shannara Chronicles

    If you had no foreknowledge of the the story or the history of the four lands... and you're 14-18 years old... then yeah maybe I could agree. It had its moments, but those were quickly swallowed but cringe-worthy dialogue and fake/forced teenage drama. Pros: Allanon Eventine The look of...

    The Shannara Chronicles

    Well... hmm... Finale wasn't bad (except the painful vocal soundtrack) but it wasn't great either. It really needed more with Wil and the consequences of using the elfstones. To leave it open at the end without a guarantee of a second season was odd as well. If it does get renewed then we will...

    Star Wars Rebels

    Episode is up on the XD app. Really good episode. Looks like some fan theories are true.

    Marvel's Agent Carter

    Solid finale. The golf balls into the rift had me laughing thinking about Window of Opportunity SG-1. Frost at the end with the scratches on her face was a nice touch. Sad to see Jack killed. Hopefully we get one more season to find out what the key is for and get the start of SHIELD. Also...

    Star Wars: The Last Jedi (2017)

    I agree, but I was addressing the loobies who said Rey's trip to Luke was 5 minutes.

    Star Wars: The Last Jedi (2017)

    Well, that and the teaser of them filming on the island with her still holding the saber. With Finn being KO'ed at the end when she left, him waking up will give a sense of the time her and Chewie spent in hyperspace.

    Pacific Rim: Uprising (2018)

    Wasn't Del Toro working on an Eva movie like 15 years ago? I just assumed when that project got canned he took his ideas to Pacific Rim.

    Marvel's Daredevil

    Marvel gets the benefit of the doubt until they screw up. So far there has been zero tv to movie crossover, so if Iron Fist flops, 80% + aren't even going to notice. Then again, Agents of SHIELD doesnt back flow into the movies either. Guess you could say The Avengers knew where to find the...

    The Shannara Chronicles

    Will 'Shannara Chronicles' get a second season? Maybe there might be a season 2. TLDR, it's exceed expectations and the streaming numbers aren't being counted yet. We'll see.

    Guild Wars 2

    What is the status of this game? I used to get emails from ArenaNet with updates and new events/story chapters. Haven't seen one in a long time. Are they still riding on the Expansion?

    The Shannara Chronicles

    It's bittersweet. Happy it was made, sad it strayed from the source. There were so many great things it did. Didn't like Allanon at first but he's my favorite now. She's super hot, but show needed less Eretria and more of the love of Wil and Amberle. I feel like her loss isn't going to have the...

    Star Wars Rebels

    That was a very solid episode. Zeb is a cool character and to Enemy Mine him with Kallus was great character building for both. The way Kallus looked at the end, I wonder if he will defect? Looks like next week we see Brother and Sister again. Saw a theory that the Grand Inquisitor was a Jedi...

    Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice (2016)

    It's weird because a lot of people grew up with The Super friends so most folk know who AquaMan, Green Lantern, and Flash are. But other than Lex and the main Batman villians, casuals won't know who Darkseid and Doomsday are. Remember back to Avengers, no one knew who Thanos was, but we are...

    Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice (2016)

    So if they didn't let him see the movie, does that me the fanboi on Reddit who posted all the BvS spoilers was wrong? Cause if they let a bunch of mouthbreather watch it that's pretty shitty.

    Deadpool (2016)

    There is a SJW blogger for Tor.com who liked the movie but was butt hurt over the male vs female nudity, the bring your girlfriend line, and the Star Wars/made you in a lab line. Her point is that girls like comics and Star Wars and studios can't see past the white male. My point is... she's a...

    Star Wars: The Force Awakens (2015)

    Hampton's Handcrafted Lightsaber are pretty amazing. He uses an handmade LED string in his combat blades that look amazing. There is a new method out there that another guy makes that is so bright they look real, at least on camera. Ultrasabers and what not would be your more common affordable...

    The Shannara Chronicles

    It bugs me because she a Roc. And Rocs are giant hawks/eagles. It's not like it's some random thing Brooks came up with.

    The Shannara Chronicles

    I get that too... but when you make Genewen a fucking dinosaur?! And this shit with Bandon is odd. Kid better get his head crushed by a demon next episode. Kind of screws up Walker Boh. Guess it doesn't matter, doubt we'll see a second season.

    The Shannara Chronicles

    Just watched episode 8. Jesus tap dancing christ. Should have known beings this is MTV, but come on. The only part I liked was them hating Spock because they thought he was an elf lol. But that's not enough to make up for the sins. When is Hollywood going to understand is that we want this shit...

    Did the Federation have guns in Heritage or am I mixing that up with the flash forwards in WoT?

    Captain America: Civil War (2016)

    Was there another story with Thor-bot? Dark Reign or Dark Avengers? Only story I know if from the MPQ mobile game where Norman Osborn steals Thor's blood to create him. Not sure if that's a comic story or made up for the game.

    The Shannara Chronicles

    To be honest, Elfstones is the only Shannara book I can vaguely remember. Sword doesn't count because it is just LotR, but I'll be dammed if I don't remember more than the major brush stroke of Wishsong, and even less than that of Heritage. Episodes 3 and 4 got the show on track... kind of...

    The Shannara Chronicles

    How many episodes are in an MTV season? Guessing 10-12? The pacing keeps going from way too slow to way too fast. It's awkward. If there are that many demons out, shouldn't the tree be almost bare? I still enjoy it and look forward to watching each week.

    Star Wars: The Force Awakens (2015)

    Aren't they going Grey Jedi route in Rebels? You have Ahsoka with her white sabers who no longer follows the Jedi Code, and Ezra who taps into the dark side on occasion. Then there are the masked dudes in white we still have no idea who they are. Rebels is canon and there are going to start...
