    Wheel of Time

    the really really shitty volcano obviously. so, is the volcano's location in the book accurate? an active volcano right next to the city? are Aei Sedai even strong enough to control a volcano, should it decide to kill them all? they don't seem to be.

    Vi was introduced in dec. 2012. it was a simpler time. Jinx june 2013 I think. Caitlin jan 2011 Jayce june 2012. Vi's design was always ridiculous. so was Caitlins.

    Riot got metooed/blizzard a few years before it all got out of control. Accused of frat bro culture and toxic masculinity. and all their female characters having giant tits. they've been going through and virtue signaling to keep their heads down since. Shrinking tits, covering them up...

    actually had meant Matt, not Thom at all. typo there. but yeah, was considering, were my suspicions on the knife based on things show in this, versus out of media knowledge, and cliches had they actually established that enchanted items even existed. did that questioner scene happen in the...

    again, not read the books. are magical items a thing in this world? or cursed? is the knife magical, cursed? or is it just Tom and the taint?

    jeez, how long has it been? Don't remember shit about the last season. Starting up. interestingly, they straight up time skip a year right at the beginning. helps with the aging of the kids.

    do you mean, "414,441.79 shib, or 35,000 Satoshi"? We can actually change the names of things. Like 1 dollar even. There was a time, when 1 dollar was ALOT. coins actually mattered. A sandwich was 10c.. http://www.choosingvoluntarysimplicity.com/what-did-things-cost-in-1860/ A dollar...

    its more then that though. you can have people waving their hands, dancing, etc just for visual effect.. like Xavier touching his eyebrows to show him using his psychic power. But, specifically, they showed an Aes Sadai with her hands cut off, presumably to stop her from channeling. thats...

    Well I mean, they had franchise lore. they just keep retconning it over and over. as a hero battler, they don't go too deep at first directly.. its like a Streetfighter, etc. just some basic character setups. Then they established the summoners rift, summoners. Which was a tribunal. take...

    The Riftbreaker

    the scanning is a huge oversight for sure. as you say, all these buildings/upgrades... none of them for scanning. constantly having to hold that his is a pita. There should be scanning upgrades. wider/faster. items. an active aoe scan pulse on timer. equipable, passive scanner. maybe...

    Super Crooks

    And... the last 3 and half episodes actually ARE the comic storyline. they do eventually get to it. its a rough tonal shift as its a notch darker, with more kills. The writing gets noticeable tighter as well.. from the elements directly lifted. The prequel elements introduced a number of...

    ok, so none of this electro boy stuff was in the comic... its a bit odd. while the dark comedy is a amusing and fairly on point... its kindof a giant change in Johnny's powerlevel and personality. comic starts off with johnny as a small time hood trying to rob banks.. and summarily getting...

    oh? I think shad did imply it was possible to break out of shields. Although he did put emphasis on cutting the weave before the shield landed as being the primary means. It might be related to the power levels going on in the show. the one Aei sadai, suggested new mages have been getting...

    Just started watching this a few days ago. Does this happened before or after the events of Shannara? I don't hate this like the book readers. but, yeah, its not very good. reading the book readers freaking out is more amusing then the show for sure.

    Jurassic World: Dominion (2022)

    see there. Grabboids really would be a very difficult creature for us to deal with. assuming we ignore the logistics of a creature that large burrowing underground. rocks, ledge, etc.. they'd have to displace the ground somehow as well.

    I thought this slide was over. but not so sure anymore. bounced off the 50day repeatedly. I thought the MACD was at its tipping point, and about to cross back over the signal. but, it didn't. it dropped down again. so, appears to be mirroring the larger corrections like in sept-0ct. so...

    The Last Duel (2021)

    Period pieces aren't in vogue. it was always a tough sell. Made worse as wokesters don't like history, and the anti-sjw people are sick and tired of historical pieces being rewritten with a modern lens, or outright having history be rewritten to inject "diversity". So neither side is going to...

    A thousand velociraptors would be massacred as well. we also hunted wolves to extinction in the 1800s. you really think any dinos would be a problem with todays arms, and helocopters, planes, etc? the US has wolves, lions, bears, and boar. you think the hunters here don't know a thing or two...

    funny, Riot doesnt know the difference between cities and Nations. they do seem to use them interchangeably. There is no mention of other cities, within those nations. Shurima, Mt. Targon, Frejiord are two others. Shurima I think is a dead civilization. Mt. Targon has Solari and Lunari...
