    Star Wars : Rogue One

    Gee, I wonder why they decided to suddenly add Thrawn to the Rebels series, now that they're making movies on pre-ANH era.. ;-) Look forward to seeing the blue guy in movie form someday.

    Doctor Strange (2016)

    Thought the movie was very entertaining, lots of humor and awesome visuals. I was looking forward to it coming out but at the same time wary about how they'd handle bringing magic into the Marvel universe but they did a homerun with it, I cannot think of a better way to introduce magic into this...

    Star Wars : Rogue One

    Yeah, as much of a huge fan as I am of the Star Wars classics, it's like some people expect to get that new car smell all over again with these new movies. Star Wars classic trilogy is like EverQuest guys, it was awesome because we were virgins to this stuff, now we are jaded old fucks and we...

    World of Warcraft: Current Year

    A lot of shortcuts and false assumptions regarding Sargeras in some of the previous comments... At the beginning, there was Light and Dark in the universe. Titans are cosmic beings born from world-souls (a seed that develops rarely inside planets and evolves into a full-blown cosmic being, made...

    World of Warcraft: Current Year

    Thanks for the tip, I did all this across 10 characters to get all the skins available from all Dalaran vendors and the only money spent was the void storage fees, so basically 200-300 gold per character, it worked like a charm. Now if only I could win some PvP to earn marks of honor and do the...

    World of Warcraft: Current Year

    No heirloom weapons like SoO this time around, but heirloom trinkets that go up to level 110 that drop randomly off Mythic-difficulty dungeon bosses. The end bosses of Blackrock Foundry and Hellfire Citadel raids drop a mount 100% but on August 30th will be nerfed to 1-3% drop rate as per usual...

    World of Warcraft: Current Year

    Demonic invasions start in about 3 weeks tops, during which you'll be able to push back the demon invaders and earn tokens to buy an exclusive pet, armor transmogs, and other goodies. Also you'll be able to start playing a Demon Hunter in their prologue instance (if you pre-ordered Legion only)...

    World of Warcraft: Current Year

    Yes and no. The really old wand is still in the game for those that obtained it back then but is not a toy, but they made a more recent version in the Cataclysm quest revamp, and that one is a toy. You can use both.

    World of Warcraft: Current Year

    Yes. Also for the toys, some are learned automatically and some aren't, so make sure before vendoring everything that the toy items have actually been learned (if it says "Already known" in red you can safely destroy/vendor it).

    World of Warcraft: Current Year

    Spent 6 hours yesterday opening salvage boxes, emptying banks/void storage/bags/mailboxes and vendoring everything that wasn't nailed down (only keeping a select few items that have sentimental value, or don't exist anymore in game and aren't able to be learned in wardrobe tab, and obviously the...

    <Fires of Heaven> WoW Guild - [Horde] [Hyjal-US]

    For people in my situation where you pre-ordered the physical Collectors Edition box (from overseas) but don't want to miss out on opening day and plan to get a digital pre-order of the regular version too, a GM confirmed to me that doing this gets you TWO level 100 boosts. One for the digital...

    Overwatch

    In my experience, healers and tanks are good/useful on all maps, there's not really a map where you can wrong with those. Wrong maps for characters would be places with low ceilings for Pharah, or a sniper on a map where they can easily get harassed/sniped back, etc..

    Star Wars Novels (Keep your EU shit out of here!)

    Adding something to the theory that the mysterious admiral at the end of Aftermath is Thrawn... Thrawn is now officially canon. Skip to 1:44 if you don't want to see the full trailer for season 3 of Star Wars Rebels (looks awesome). https://youtu.be/xmXp802sFgQ

    The way this new character talks and looks reminds me a lot of the old woman sniper in Fury Road. I wonder if that's intended by its creators.

    Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Out of the Shadows (2016)

    This came out yesterday here and we saw it with the wife and a couple of friends, everyone was a bit disappointed, some a lot. We had all enjoyed the first movie to a point (I thought it was never as good as the original TMNT movie, but it was so much better than TMNT 3 that I gave it a free...

    Star Wars : Rogue One

    Considering none of the characters from Rogue One appear in A New Hope, it's fair to say none of them have plot armor. So I expect the troopers will finally be able to shoot people in this one.

    GoT - Is Over, Post Your Drogon Sightings

    I'm still thinking that this flash vision Bran had of green fire explosions in tunnels/buildings is the outcome of Cersei losing the last of her children and going full Aerys Targaryen on everyone by blowing up the humongous stocks of wildfire they have under the city/keep. It's time to move...

    Just had the whole chat laugh itself to tears because I threw a mine in front of a charging Reinhardt and he went flying off the map on Lijiang Tower. Good times as Junkrat in every goddamn game.

    There IS a "white walker god", he's called "The Great Other" and is the enemy of Rh'lorr the Lord of Fire, worshipped by the red priests.

    This is word for word the same kind of article that was written about Suicide Squad a few weeks ago, just replaced the words Suicide Squad with Rogue One. I would take it with a huge pinch of salt.

    WarCraft (2016)

    I'm a huge fan of Warcraft, and I really enjoyed this movie. Warcraft is a story that is not super easy to get into movie form, and I think they did the best they could and it was not perfect but really entertaining. I went with the wife and a friend who both knew almost nothing about Warcraft...

    X-Men: Apocalypse (2016)

    Psylocke was ridiculous from start to finish in the movie, no idea why Apocalypse would surround himself with lame ass mutants like Angel or Psylocke, I kept wishing in the movie that we would have seen his ancient Egyptian Horsemen instead, those seemed super badass, especially the one that...

    WarCraft (2016)

    EQ gave birth to WoW. The core concept and the brains behind WoW all came from EQ. It was both the first victim of WoW's success and ironically is still one of the few that survived it well enough.

    X-Men: Apocalypse (2016)

    Because they painted themselves into a corner at the end of the previous movie ending in the 60's, so when they want to use the same actors for the sequel, it's either "not too long later" or they have to get new actors, or they have to explain why everyone looks the same after nearly 60 years...

    X-Men: Apocalypse (2016)

    I saw it today, and I'd say it's... an X-Men movie. I enjoyed it less than First Class and Days of Future Past but that could be because the novelty is wearing off or because the story was more simplistic. I didn't care much for most of the new mutants but the main cast was still good, except...

    Marvel Universe stuff

    I agree. If anything, Jennifer Lawrence is a handicap this time around, as her popularity is going down and she is becoming more and more annoying, sort of like Halle Berry. Those movies have been so far carried mostly by Fassbender and McAvoy (70/30) and Hugh Jackman. This upcoming one MAY get...

    Captain America: Civil War (2016)

    A bit of both. The plot is mostly centered around Captain America, but some of the events were set in motion by Avengers 2 and will definitely impact Avengers 3. It also leads right into the Black Panther movie, basically.

    Captain America: Civil War (2016)

    Just got back from seeing it. It was awesome. The trailers are very well done because they don't reveal much of what's going to happen. Go see it.
