    GoT - Is Over, Post Your Drogon Sightings

    I'll forgive Euron having Romulan Cloaking tech since that sequence effectively dealt with both Dorne and the Iron Islands, the two families I genuinely had little interest in when they got added into the story in the books.

    Valerian and the City of a Thousand Planets (2017)

    I saw it, theater was virtually empty on opening weekend... not a good sign. The movie was incredibly 'French'. Hell the first 10 or so minutes is just a long cold opening bit that went on waaaay longer than I expected. At one point I leaned over and asked "is this Avatar 2?" owing to the...

    World of Warcraft: Current Year

    Flight Whistle is, indeed, one of the best things they did this expansion. Even with flying I find myself using the whistle, especially when I want to go AFK right after finishing a world quest or whatever.

    Young Justice

    That is indeed Traci 13, and she is Asian...just hard to tell with the Young Justice art style. Good to see them using both Static and Traci 13 although I would have thought they'd keep Rocket from Milestone as well. They seem to be trying to minimize the "Titans" crossover with Young Justice...

    Mass Effect: Andromeda - Autism reaches outer space

    I was reading over the Bioware posting welcoming back Casey Hudson and only then remembered that Shadow Realms was announced and then immediately aborted a couple years ago. So under the previous Bioware leadership they have really been floundering. I have to wonder what life is like right...

    Nintendo Switch (previously NX)

    I can't even begin to imagine who thought this was a good idea... More likely than not they KNOW its a terrible idea, but it was the least terrible idea they could come up with to implement such a fundamental core element that somehow got overlooked in the broader development cycle.

    Destiny 2 - Clan Link 1st Post

    It is very pretty (not even on 4k here) but it is most definitely an 'expansion' and not a new title. What changes exist are functionally similar to the sorts of changes we see with new WoW expansions -- some details of the 'spec' is altered but the overall game engine and mechanics are exactly...

    Home buying thread

    So, ever the financially responsible good-guy, I've carried a renter's insurance policy ever since getting my first apartment in college. Turns out this has paid off a bit as my homeowners insurance is being written as transformation of that original policy. With the long history and such my...

    Mistbox -- flim flammery is alive and well

    Someone at work linked to this in Slack: I mean it sounds really cool and all, especially since it runs by using a turbine fan to leech off your condenser vented air... but using vaporization to significantly lower air temperature is only going to really work in a very arid environment. It...

    Star Wars: The Last Jedi (2017)

    I have to wonder to what degree they are wanting to Marvel-ize Star Wars post Ep 9. If you treat the mainline Star Wars Saga films like you do the team flicks like Avengers then you have room to do things like a Poe/BB8 buddy cop adventure movie or a Rey lone warrior film or even a Kylo Ren...

    The Fast Food Thread

    They have a large number of reports, many from Chipotles in other locales, although obviously people are getting the link from the stories about Chipotle so there is likely a selection bias. I too had no idea such a thing existed.

    The Fast Food Thread

    I would say Stranger Things because it really moved the needle and captured the imagination of everyone out of left field.

    Home buying thread

    Small update. I guess their OMG 3 week delay on the closing was an overreaction to their predicament as they ended up formally requesting a two day extension. I did a ton of research on appliances and there are horror stories with every brand. Consumer Reports includes some basic stats on...

    Home buying thread

    Grrrrr. Sellers have requested we move the closing date back to Sept 7th as it took them a long time to find a new place and they can't get into that before Labor Day. They also asked if we wanted to buy the washer/dryer from them since they wouldn't be able to take those with them now...

    The Void (2016)

    It has a definite John Carpenter vibe, but with a nice sprig of Lovecraft thrown in. It was a pleasant relief from the borderline grindhouse or Ed & Lorraine Warren based fare that dominates lately.

    Spider-Man: Homecoming (2017)

    I also like the character building they do with the Vulture. Michael Keaton does a great job with the role and having him be a literal scavenger was a very nice touch.

    Mystery Science Theater 3000: The Return

    Went to the MST3K 'Watch Out For Snakes' LIVE tour last night here in Boston. They only did Eegah here in Boston (other towns get a second 'secret' movie as a separate ticket) but they managed to create some quality riffs considering it had already been covered once before on the show...

    World of Warcraft: Current Year

    Given that Azeroth is 'The Last Titan' I keep hoping the planet undergoes a Unicron-like transformation into battle mode thus resetting the landmasses again. I was recently helping a buddy get over his wife leaving him through MMO-therapy and running new characters in WoW and the Cataclysm...

    There was no season pass this time around. So perhaps someone at Mama EA saw the writing on the wall.

    Mass Effect: Andromeda - Autism reaches outer space

    What I don't get is how, of all the games they have made, THIS was the one where they intentionally left out story elements for post-Netflix DLC. Leaving out mid-game content like Javik is one thing, but this was very cocky.

    Mass Effect: Andromeda - Autism reaches outer space

    http://kotaku.com/sources-mass-effect-andromeda-will-not-get-single-pla-1796548159 So while the statement that the DLC was cancelled was a hoax, it seems to be that it couldn't be cancelled because it was never going to happen anyway. This is pretty sad given that they intentionally put the...

    Transformers: The Last Knight (2017)

    I fear that Transformers, as a property, is just too far gone to salvage at this point. Its been a decade now and several films so the Michael Bay version has cemented itself in the public consciousness. None of his efforts are truly what I would consider 'good' as they perpetually focus more...

    Star Trek: Discovery

    TNG movies should just have never happened, at least not in the way they did. The story of Picard and Q bookended the entire series and really set it as a complete work. The only way to do a TNG movie properly would have been to come at the fundamental premise in a different way. Given that...

    The Secret World

    I was playing again last night after the servers finally came back, and I still feel the combat as overly clunky. Perhaps this is due to some server lag, but the targets AOE base ability for Warlocks seems to use an animation that is suited more for a finisher (big bloody pentagram on the...

    The Secret World

    I really liked my old character on TSW and found myself unable to replicate his look even when I got to Agartha and was able to get all the legacy cosmetic options. All of the present facial options look like a bad Korean MMO and without any clear way to tweak it I felt shortchanged. The...
