    NHL 22-23: Tanking hard for Bedard

    Someone needs to tell Suzuki and Canfield that we are after Bedard and that’s not the way to do it. ;)

    She-Hulk

    This is my least favorite MCU show so far. It lack direction, it was all over the place and I feel it didn’t much to advance the character. One of the core aspect of She-Hulk was the fact the Jennifer enjoyed being She-Hulk because it made her feel strong and confident. I think they stayed away...

    Andor

    Once again, an excellent episode. I know I repeat myself every episode but the production values are so high for this show compared to the other Star Wars shows. Mandalorian is pretty good but production values are way lower. It’s a slow show but it works really well, the 2 episodes build up...

    Overwatch 2

    So, I restarted playing this after 2-3 years away. I used to oscillate between Gold and Silver in all roles, with a few times going into Platinum. I got put into Bronze 1 as a healer, Silver 2 as a DPS(Mei), and Bronze 4 as a tank. Pretty disappointing results, I guess 2-3 years away from...

    Well Leafs are in playoff mode already. :)

    NHL 22-23: Tanking hard for Bedard

    Montreal played for 100%(0-8) in pre-season, they are good to go in their quest of tanking hard for Bedard. I'm going to cheer them on. :)

    The Sandman

    Finally got around to finishing this. I enjoyed it, and will watch more if they make more.

    Andor

    This continues to be a very well written and well acted show that is a slow burn. That’s fine by me, as mentioned the characters are well developed and you understand why they are there. They managed in a short period of time to make me anxious about how this mission will go, there are stakes to...

    Overwatch 2

    The little girl running with the axe was hilarious. Their animation team still has it.

    Andor

    I’m enjoying this despite the slow pace, but I have to agree that it’s probably going to better watching a few episode at a time since they seem to be taking an episode or two to set things up and then have an episode that pays off. The production value are really amazing.

    Andor

    So finished all 3 episodes, this is a well made show. Everything is week done, great locations, sets, etc…well written and well acted, by far the best made Disney+ Star Wars tv show. That said, it’s definitely slow which I don’t mind when setting stuff up, hopefully they are mostly done with...

    She-Hulk

    5 episodes in and i have no clue where they heading with the story, actually there doesn’t seem to be any story. I’m not sure what they are planning the character either. It just feels aimless right now. Probably the MCU show I’ve enjoyed the least so far.

    The Sandman

    I started this last night and ended up watching the first 4 episodes. I really enjoyed it, I thought the visuals were great, and the casting for Dream is spot on. Since I've read the original, I've always loved the battle between Dream and the demon(in the tv show vs Lucifer). I love the "I am...

    Marvel Universe stuff

    Secret Invasion looks like it’s going to be light on superheroes and focused more on Fury and the human aspect of it. Great cast, hopefully it turns out good.

    Willow

    Well that looks better than I expected, bar was low but still it looks pretty good.

    Andor

    I cannot express how unexcited I was by this when it was announced and how I became slightly more interested every time they showed a new trailer, to the point where I am genuinely exited about it now. I still don’t like the prequel idea because we know nothing happens to Andor who is alive...

    Thor: Love and Thunder (2021)

    I just finished watching this. It was bad, the humor wasn’t good, not a lot of actually funny lines or situations. The worse part is that it turned everything into a joke. The god city was a joke, Zeus was a joke. I liked Thor the Dark World better to be honest, and thats at the bottom of the list.

    Black Adam (2021)

    I‘m a fan of Dwayne Johnson, I like the character in this Black Adam, Dr. Fate, Hawkman…yet I’m still at best lukewarm for this. Either the constant disappointment of the DCU movies makes me unable to get excited about anything they do, or theres just something off about this one that I cannot...

    Death Stranding

    We’ll just finished my 3rd play through, this time of the Director’s Cut. I finished it in 65 hours compared to 90 hours the first time. I did pretty much the same thing, which is to build all the roads, and get almost all of the destination to 5 stars. Think I have only the Collector and First...

    Rings of Power: Tolkien's Shambling Skinsuit

    So I finally watched both episodes and enjoyed it. I thought the production values were great. I did have issues with pacing, very little happened in 2 episodes of 1 hour each, it’s a lot of setup which is rarely the most exciting aspect of a show. Hopefully there will be a payoff that will make...

    Samaritan (2022)

    It was ok but pretty forgettable. You saw the twist from a mile away, it was pretty obvious from the first few minutes.

    She-Hulk

    I'd disagree with the Ms. Marvel comparison, I'll admit though that I thoroughly enjoyed the show. Yes she got her powers by just putting on the bracelet, but she didn't immediately master her powers. She is shown working on learning how to use them, and she makes mistake even dropping down a...

    She-Hulk

    She enjoyed being She-Hulk because she felt more confident compared to her weaker human form. This is going to be difficult to portray in today's woke society as women should always be portrayed as strong. So what they did is make Jennifer have the confidence of the comic She-Hulk...so the...

    She-Hulk

    Episode was better but bar was low, so that’s not saying much. Episode was only 30 and I feel like nothing happened, she lost her job as Jennifer and found a new one as She-Hulk. Right now she doesn’t like being She-Hulk, but in the comics she loves it more than being Jennifer, so I wonder if...

    The Last of Us

    Are they going after Skyrim for the record of the most times releasing the same game?

    Death Stranding

    Since there is such a drought of games right now, I started my 3rd playthrough of this, this time the Director's Cut. I know I'm strange, but I just enjoy this game so much. It's so chill to just carry stuff from A to B and build stuff. I'm still in Episode 1 in this playthrough, just going...

    NHL 2021-22 Season - Now A Turner Classic

    Well looks like Price won't play this season, most likely his career is over. Too bad for him that he was not a competitive team his entire career and didn't get to win a cup. Him being out for the seasons allowed us to help Calgary though by taking Monahan and a 1st pick for nothing(future...

    She-Hulk

    Well I’m glad I read the post about the first episode before watching it because you guys seriously lowered my expectation, so I ended up actually enjoying it. :) Now that the origin story is over I’m looking forward to see where they go from here. I read somewhere from the press that saw the...

    DC Universe (Batman vs Superman thread).

    Well WB just basically got a get out of jail card right there with him admitting he has mental issues and apologizing. /sarcasm I mean it's not his fault right, this could have happened to anyone. We can't add to his problems by cancelling the biggest movie of his career, we risk to...

    DC Universe (Batman vs Superman thread).

    Yeah as far as I understand it, the Flash movie is the setup of their multiverse upon which everything that follows is based on. It's essentially the cornerstone of the future of the DCU.

    Marvel Universe stuff

    I think one of the issue is the loss of some major actors/characters like Robert Downey, Chris Evans, Scarlett Johansson and Chadwick Boseman(fuck cancer). The casting of these actors is as good as it gets, and they were major players. Add to that the end of the Infinity War saga, and having to...

    Prey

    I think the movie did a good job of trying to explain why she was able to defeat the predator. It clearly established that the flower lowered body temperature, they showed her using it on someone and the predator not seeing him. Big stretch for her to make the connection, but at least they...

    Luck (2022)

    I watched this tonight, it was enjoyable but also forgettable. There‘s nothing really wrong with it, but also nothing really stood out.
  34. Valderen

    Prey

    This was a surprise, didn’t expect much but it was pretty good. They kept thing simple, focused on the hunt and gave her a chance to slowly learn about the predator and it’s weaknesses. She used what she learned and outsmarted it rather than overpowered it so it felt more realistic and satisfying.

    WarnerMedia launching HBO Max Spring 2020

    If these people really thought that consumers would start subscribing to 20 different services then they are completely delusional.

    MLB 2022: Georgia Gets the Last Laugh

    Shohei used to smile all the time, he almost never smiles anymore. There's no way he'll resign with the Angels, they'll have to trade him next year, I wonder what he'll bring.

    Andor

    This is interesting, by far the show I was looking forward to the least…but every time they show something my interest goes up. This latest trailer looks really really good. I‘m now officially excited for this show.

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

    I enjoyed D3, I think their support for it was lacking with only 1 full expansion and 1 class expansion. Their season are lacking compared to POE, they don't necessarily have to match it by introducing completely new mechanics each time but they have to do more so they feel more unique. What...

    STAR WARS Jedi: Survivor™ (PS5, XSX, Steam, Epic) - early 2023

    I liked the first one, wasn't the greatest gameplay or level design both wasn't really bad either in my opinion. I enjoyed it well enough. What it did very well though was create a very good Star Wars experience. I really liked the story and it had some pretty awesome set piece. So I'm looking...

    Stray - get your pussy on (PS4,5 and Windoze)

    I just finished the game, it was surprisingly good. Really enjoyed it. High quality production value, simple but good gameplay. The story was also quite good for what it was.
