Not that I was going to be watching it anyway, but refresh my memory, this is the show where the fat chick from Discovery who somehow gained a dozen ranks over two years time is their main instructor? That said, SHOULD Paramount give a shit if I'm going to watch it? 1. Will less of our age...

The WB buyout is also a regulatory mess - all the players have their own services (Netflix, Paramount+, etc.), so whoever 'wins' still has to fight the US government as size of the new combined entity will be sizable. (Between Amazon, Paramount with Daddy Oracle's money, Netflix, etc...

There is zero evidence any corp has any interest in Snyder at the moment, and note that Netflix has exclusive rights to a final agreement to buy WB (Netflix has to pay WB $5 Billion even if the deal falls through) - considering that Rebel Moon and everything else Snyder appears to be dead at...

For Accident, I should say Oscar bait in terms of getting nominations. In terms of quality, sight unseen, it sounds like it's objectively the best film of the year.

To be clear, Micron will just stop selling finished products under their own brand (Crucial), component sales to others (like a G-skill or whomever) will continue... ... at least, until their contracts are up, then we'll see. Now, if you want to talk about secondary effects of AI bubbles...

I haven't seen any of them either (like a lot of the population, with so many damn streaming services, it has to be special for me to pay an additional fee and make time in my schedule to see in person), but even I know: The Phoenician Scheme - Wes Anderson does another Wes Anderson, diminishing...

The arguable frontrunner for this year's Oscar, from Chloe Zhao, who's Nomadland won Best Picture / Director in the irregular 2021 Oscars... ... who also directed The Eternals. lolz. But as you can probably guess from what the title sounds like, this is another Shakespeare movie, but do not...

Given how mediocre everyone is in the AFC, the Pats getting the one seed, barely squeaking by two teams and getting into the Super Bowl is way more plausoble than I could have imagined even a month ago.

Supposedly CDPR has a 'bridge' DLC in the works for Witcher 3, but that seems way too early for Cyberpunk. My vote is still on anime tie-in. Note that I have no idea if its pay-for or not..

Yeah, got some green Housing item doing something in Undermine, click on it and retroactively given another ~180 items, presumably from past Achievements. Which is nice. What's not nice is then trying to figure out from the UI what I don't have (not that I give a shit about housing itself, but...

Some of those are real but are very deep cuts, like Mrs Columbo - Mrs. Columbo (TV Series 1979–1980) ⭐ 5.7 | Crime, Drama, Mystery That said, probably everything has been optioned at one point or another, even if no one actually came up with a real plotline, much less a script for it.

So as of right now, the Bears and Patriots have the #1 seeds in their conferences. If anything, this just encourages coach churn, when there's really only so much a coach can do if their roster is bad enough.

As mentioned in the movie thread for it, the thing you think is a plot twist happens 25% of the way through the book, and that is really just introducing the second lead character in the movie, as well as distinguishing the plot from the otherwise very similar The Martian. Going back to the...

What Spronk said: Ahsoka wasn't bad (well, maybe the last episode was), it just wasn't worth your time, unless you have a preposterous amount of free time / nothing else to watch. Nothing about Thrawn was executed well; like usual for Disney Star Wars, the only interesting character was the...

We still don't even have any hints on the calendar. I still think a pack of missions explicitly tied into the second anime season (probably with some of the same characters / voice actors) is the most likely scenario - why would CDPR not announce this formally, unless it was tied to the anime...

Get 21-0 lead in 19 minutes. Do nothing for the next 41 minutes. So, I'm not the only one that considers the Rams the prohibitive favorite for the NFC this year, right?

I thought it was so obvious Hasten was QB, especially when the ending reveals that the Marines are back to stashing 'named characters' as lower level positions, that it smelled like it _should be_ a misdirect, and that your RGs and such might be more likely. A lot of fan theorycrafting (or...

It's another movie the marketing fucked over by revealing the secret Terminator. As far as the movie itself, it's as unnecessary as any other prequel, and frankly does nothing interesting with the machine war, but compared to much of the early CGI / quick editing era of the time, the action is...

It's been three weeks since I finished NLF and I barely remember anything about it. (I've read seven other books by others since, so that's also a me problem.) Abstractly, I can see the objectives Erikson wanted to hit - update the status of the Seven Cities (still unstable and rebellious...

Even the most positive reviews I've seen say it falls apart in the third act, and even the leftists find the social 'commentary' unimpressive. It's honestly kind of impressive that the combination of Edgar Wright and what's probably Arnold's fourth most entertaining movie (doesn't top Predator...

It looks like the movie ship has that long central section separate from _in between_ the fuel pylons (without hitting them, even when the ship is thrusting at an angle), feed differential lengths of spool (since in docked configuration, those two attachment points arent equidistant from the...

The book explicitly mentions that in a flatscreen era, any display can report anything and thus can all be interchangeable, and points out that he only has mission jumpsuits to wear. 1/10 slop adaptation, do not watch. But seriously, Grace runs into Rocky's ship only 25% of the way into the...

To be fair, the consensus before the season was that the Chiefs were unlikely to continue to win close games at the % they did last year, and would regress to the mean with a more 'expected' winning %. I would say that the Chiefs being in 11 one-score games _already_ marked them as not nearly...

Patriots / Bills / North Winner / Colts / Broncos. That leaves two slots, between the AFC North loser, Jaguars, Chargers, and Chiefs. The Chargers _had_ a great record, but their offense is not doing well. Though the Broncos potentially resting people in Week 18 (if the first seed is out of...

Denver's defense is very, very good. If their offense was even average they'd probably be the prohibitive SB favorite at this point. How far can NE and Denver take their high playoff seeds, defensive excellence, and rough January home conditions? We shall see.

Ever since we saw the electricity-less New Vegas at the end of Season 1 (and the ruined NCR vehicles in the credits, if they're canonical), the assumption was Bethesda had wimped out and said "Whoever you picked won in New Vegas! - and then everything got blown up five minutes later, so it...

Set photos highly suggested filming in multiple time periods (pre-war, New Vegas, and show era), so Mr House scene is probably New Vegas (given the elevation, probably Lucky 38), but a personality copy like a Yes Man in show era is also possible. Voice almost certainly is a Super Mutant (we...

Considering how volatile component pricing (especially RAM) is right now, I doubt they'll list any prices until pre-orders (if any) just before launch. Most estimates are in the $800-$900 range, but made with no actual knowledge of Valve's bulk rates with AMD, nor continued component price...

Yeah, 4k with only 8GB ram kinda requires FSR even if the video chips could handle it natively. To be clear, the mass market does not have great hardware - the most common video cards on Steam are still 3060 and 4060 families - but depending on when this comes out in 2026, this could look...

Unless I am forgetting someone, the only repeating character

As someone who played Vampire Survivors this weekend (the free Balatro DLC and the free addition to the previous paid-for Castlevania DLC), I am always up for more Vampire Survivors. Somewhat odd it is its own executable - the assumption will be James Workshop wanted more than DLC pricing for...

Steelers defense can't even handle the 5th and 6th backup Oline the Chargers are throwing out. I really think its the Chiefs again for the AFC. The Broncos have no offense, the Bills have no consistency and lose to mediocre teams, the Patriots have been beating up on chumps and how they handle...

Well, yeah, but then its not just ~13 characters anymore. The show explicitly mentioned people in orbit as well - both Y: The Last Man and Last Man on Earth added characters through astronauts returning from orbit. I _think_ we're headed into ugly philosophical dilemma territory. I highly...

It's tough to bet against Gilligan's track record, but I don't see how you can have a longrunning show with only ~13 characters (the 12 immune and The Hive Mind). Especially if most of those other characters have indeed internalized that the world they knew is effectively over, so why not enjoy...

I actually hope they don't redo the original trilogy We've covered that material, and other than the ending, its hard to imagine they'll do a better job. Give us the Human / Turian war, then the biotic revolution and you have more than enough material for a couple seasons.

I think even modern Lego is too angular to ever make that saucer look good. Given that I'd never spend $400 on nostalgia items, I admit I am weirdly triggered by the minifigs(?) - Wesley is clearly Season 1, but Riker's beard is Season 2. I guess they are aiming for the most memeable /...

The chronology seems kinda fuzzy to me - why would the cops do the welfare check if they knew he was the target of their canvas. Seems more likely to me he made comments to someone about killing himself, starts driving (probably north out of the city to do that), is distracted and commits...

Yeah, the limitations on which bonuses scale or not limit the wackiness compared to Mists Remix. The biggest sticking point to me is movement speed. Your warband doesn't inherit it and you don't get bonuses to it from thread drops. The only source is via armor mods, which are capped at 49% to...

Yeah, Remix is only like 25% over, AND the number of (daily clearable) raids increases each phase, AND there's some unknown catchup mechanic starting three weeks after Argus opens.There's still more than enough time to do everything before it ends. Hell, given that you can convert these...

GB / Carolina was a windy, offensive injury mess on both sides. Only GB was possessed by the ghost of Favre, however.
