Noticed I was 'gifted' a 3 day access to explore the new patch (has to be activated and expires end of the month). I might check it out this weekend since I am intrigued by Mechagon but from what I see here I doubt I will be suckered into a sub.

They had Dave & Buster's in 1934?

They are usually very tight lipped on viewing numbers so they must be super pumped about this. I would hate to be one of the dozen+ media executives who told the Duffer Bros to pound salt as they shopped the idea around to everyone before Netflix threw some $ at them as part of their shotgun...

Well it also serves the story of Steve never being able to catch a break...which I am okay with since his character arc is amazing.

I had not realized the pedigree of the cast until now. Dustin and Lucas got their start on Broadway and Max was Annie for fuck's sake!

One of the most remarkable aspects is just how tight some of these episodes are. There were a couple where the episode ended and you go 'wait...that was only an hour?!?'. Even with some bits that go on too long, seemingly intentionally, there is a lot of story packed into 8 episodes. Does this...

The Warlock and Shaman bonuses are just crap now. They really only come into play once you are already steamrolling the opposition.

Watched the first two episodes for a Fourth of July 1985 party (complete with New Coke and 'Pepsi Challenge' re-enactments) and everyone was really happy with it so far. I'm actually just enjoying the interaction of the characters independent of the new big bad thing going on. It's just fun...

The casting for this show is amazing. There were times when a new era's version of an existing character popped up and you could tell exactly who it was by their look / mannerisms even before they got named. I agree that you do need a scorecard at times to keep track of everyone.

Can we talk for just a moment about how truly awful the dub is for this show? I had wanted some friends to get into the show because of how great it is, only they aren't the type of people who do will with subtitles and so they wanted to watch the dub. It is AWFUL! I swear to god they...

Note that while they have 3 episodes up today, they will be doing 1 episode per week from now on, which gets us to October. This helps bridge the content gap left by the shorter than intended Swamp Thing season plus the delay in Stargirl and Titans season 2.

Back today! Guy Gardner with a Boston accent is just perfect.

'Sandman' TV Series From Neil Gaiman, David Goyer — With Huge Price Tag — a Go at Netflix The fact that this is a major Netflix exclusive and not a DCUniverse exclusive in the US with Netflix streaming it for everyone else should clue us all in that DCUniverse is gonna be killed off momentarily.

Title: The Sandman Genre: Sci-Fi & Fantasy, Drama First aired: 2021-12-31 Creator: Allan Heinberg Cast: Tom Sturridge, Gwendoline Christie, Vivienne Acheampong, Charles Dance, Boyd Holbrook, Asim Chaudhry, Sanjeev Bhaskar Overview: Adaptation of Neil Gaiman's famous The Sandman...

Have been rationing the episodes and so just watched the Danny episode. I am so fucking pumped that they did Danny the Street... Goddamn why won't they renew this?!?

This is a bad 'review' inasmuch as a number of their 'why is this happening??' points are actually clearly addressed in the show. I suspect they just skimmed summaries of the season rather than actually watching the relevant episodes. These arent even 'blink and you'll miss it' type of...

I REALLY want the Unicornsplosion so we had to go back to Tiny Tina's Assault on Dragon Keep to get the amulet necessary for the quest. This is a good thing because we had never finished it the first time round and it really is an amazing bit of DLC.

They could have written around this very easily: The bomber itself was thus designed to work solely by being a flying brick that got in REALLY close to the target and then deliver a large number of the exceptionally volatile explosives at point blank range. The bombers move so freaking slow...

This is meant to be a fun entertainment activity. Blizzard's whole value proposition from day 1 was to take basic game types and make them incredibly accessible for people to enjoy and thus open up the hobby to more and more people. When you are hemorrhaging subscriptions and customers are...

I would really like to check out Mechagon... but I know that by now people will need some ludicrous gear score to be allowed in a group for even a Mythic-0 run of the new Mega Dungeon which effectively locks me out of ever experiencing the content. You would think they would do more to lure...

This show is now on HBO following it's run in the UK. It is, apparently, a present-to-near-future series that is sci-fi/futurist in nature. Done by Russel Davies (behind modern Doctor Who and Torchwood) it has similar themes to Black Mirror but in a more continuous narrative way as it follows...

Title: Years and Years Genre: Drama, War & Politics, Sci-Fi & Fantasy Cast: Emma Thompson, Russell Tovey, Rory Kinnear, T'Nia Miller, Ruth Madeley, Anne Reid, Jessica Hynes First aired: 2019-05-14 Overview: As Britain is rocked by unstable political, economic and technological...

Yeah I think it was a victim of the Perlmuter / Feige feud. Its sad because it really wouldn't take much effort to have had the Netflix / Hulu / ABC series all true active parts of the MCU but it couldnt' be allowed to happen because they hate each other.

https://deadline.com/2019/06/taika-waititi-flash-gordon-animated-movie-thor-ragnarok-jojo-rabbit-fox-disney-1202637059/ This is about the best I could hope for as a chance to rez Flash Gordon

I got caught up with this finally. Damn I do love me some FitzSimmons.

I'm a few episodes in and keeping track of everything / everyone in the different eras is quite complex. Just when I think I might know what is really going on some new little wrinkle pops up.

Screening is awesome for this, plus it filters out known scammers so they don't even get that far. As a side perk it's super fun to use on whatever good friend you know that will be most triggered by being subjected to it

I thought it wasn't so much that the test audiences preferred Discovery but that the only people who responded well to the Picard test screenings preferred Discovery / Kelvin timeline. The TNG / Original Series folk didn't care for it at all.

https://www.theguardian.com/books/2019/jun/20/petition-netflix-cancel-amazon-prime-good-omens-christian-neil-gaiman-terry-pratchett I mean... Good grief people.

Did the Boss tonight and that was fun as hell. We had the presence of mind to spend a little time farming Toothpicks and the shield that goes with it which made the Boss quite doable with only two people. Started over in Ultimate Vault Hunter mode so we could get fancy level 55+ stuff. The...

Got the gang back together to do the DLC. At first we had no idea what the fuck we were doing but it didn't take long for the muscle memory to kick in. All in all this is a fun romp to revisit 'friends' from 7 years ago. I will say that all of us have now pre-ordered BL3 and are eager for it...

I like that Strange gets his nuts cracked everytime he Zeta beams. That has got to get to him lol

The original movie is on Netflix now in 4K. It isn't the best transfer I've seen, but it is very pretty.

With Avengers kicking things off very early it has felt like the entire typical 'summer' movie season was dead by the traditional start. My local crew are movie geeks (including but not limited to making short films) and normally the summer has us going every weekend to the cinema , but not...

Yeah if I could just motor through a whole swarm of a single color before having to switch brushes it'd be crazy handy. It comes out in some of the reviews, but it is very important to note that some colors are intrinsically thinner than others. The paper/flesh tone above is skeleton horde and...

This is an example of ~10 mins of just slapping on a few colors without much finesse. Not revolutionary, but easier to get something passable in a short amount of time.

It's an addition. The idea is that you prime your minis and then use these in lieu of a base/shader/wash. So you get to a base+wash stage after one cost of this thin yet incredibly pigment dense paint and can then do additional shades / washes if you want or skip straight to picking out detail...

I was going to hold off on this until home release, but a local showing was completely empty** yesterday when we were at the mall so we jumped in to hate-watch it as a group. The movie was a lot of fun to rip on MST3K style, especially with a bunch of comic fans, and so it had quite a lot of...

I picked up some of those new Citadel Contrast paints today and have been trying them out. Definitely requires rethinking how you go about painting but not entirely sure if they will save much time.
