    Westworld

    even s1 had major flaws. the highs let you mostly overlook them. and the mystery box. Like Lost, the promise of some deep mystery to be revealed kept you moving forward and not thinking too much. The completely inept security was an issue even in s1.

    Avatar 2 (2020)

    I can't say that trailer was very intriguing. I def don't care about Sully and his "family". the navi at all really. the world building didn't spark much interest. They are actually working together now for some reason? or, was it just more humans using navi suits?

    The Pentaverate

    it feels like its mike myers surrounded by a 20 something "diverse" writing room. Race is brought up repeatedly. Q-anon, pizzagate, alex jones are mocked. not a single left wing conspiracy is. "pizzagate is not real, but the goverment gave placebos to 600 infected black men in Tuskagee...

    Comic Books

    yeah. Perez was a king. the almost perfect comic book art. Clear, readable, etc. its frustratingly sad there aren't really any people that based their work off his.

    The Netflix Thread

    seems that way. although, I would say its not just netflix. l think its just about all media. games, other streaming, movies, etc as well. the vast majority of media these days is kindof depressing.

    Ozark

    I need to go back and look. I haven't finished part 2 of season 4 yet.. but I had already noted how trash part 1 of s4 was. I don't think I liked s3 much either though. hrm. looking at the episode list... its really just the FBI stuff that falls flat in my mind. Ben, the kids, ruth, all seem...

    Star Trek: Picard

    the borg queen itself never many any sense btw. like, it could make some sense as a criticism of real communism corruption as noted.. but again, hivemind expressly without the bureaucracy. its clearly a mixed metaphor of the writers wanting them to just be evil and scary, and a plot...

    "ice are awful and dehumanize these poor refugees, and we need to shine a light on that!" "also the borg aren't people and we can kill them all on sight. even the borg that were taken into the collective recently, and if removed would 100% still have their sense of self." Should build a wall...

    Outer Range

    caught up, to epi 6. its a struggle.. theres just too much people acting like crazy lunatics. no one acts or talks like a normal human being. everyone talks in weird vague terms as if they are prescient. too many plots going no where. hole plot, land grab plot, murder plot, sheriff...

    Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness (2022)

    I don't follow this shit. Has it been revealed via casting or anything who they are even going to be in this version? They got a black bolt, namor, or reed? a new panther?

    Baldur's Gate 3 by Larian Games

    They had been trying to partner up with WotC for some time. trying to make their campaign creators even compatible with live DMing. I do think this BG 3 is a misstep. its NEVER going to feel like Baldur's gate. As noted, pathfinder does a much better job at that. they could have gotten away...

    Outer Range

    haven't caught the second two episodes yet. But, I thought it was amusing the show is called "outer range", yet it feels so claustrophobic. it doesn't FEEL like deep open country. and the wilderness doesn't fit into the story at all. The closet is the girl camping... but, the little girl...

    The Netflix Thread

    wow. this factors into a discussion I was having with my brother today, about too many subscriptions, etc. This splintering of services greatly diminishes the potential viewer count, thus word of mouth, and buzz for any show. Viewership on any given show is going to get smaller and smaller...

    Morbius (2020)

    rotten tomatoes scores can be baffling. how the fuck is Birds of Prey, 79%/78%? they MUST have culled the scores. bland IS worse then bad. How the fuck does anyone call Darkman bad? that shit is fantastic. Sam Rami, Liam nelson.. the sequels however.. those are real contenders for worst...

    Outer Range

    hiding the hole at first is a bit odd. really, at the start, as bizarre as a perfectly round sink hole is, its not as weird as that chick showing up to camp. normal reaction would have been to tell the kids, put up a fence around it. take some photos. they are ranchers, so not telling...

    Divinity: Original Sin 2

    yeah. retrospective on this. I also burned out mid act 3. The story slows down in a bad way. you get distracted by side quests, etc. rpgs like this can do that. you can have slow points, and open up the gameplay to adventures. but, it doesn't quite work well here. works better with world...

    Diablo 4 / IV / IIII / Fore / Cope / Seethe

    player shadows are locked to the character there. its always behind them. if you stand in place and rotate, it will rotate with you.
