    Get a free Kyle Rittenhouse at Culver's

    The longer the jury deliberates, the easier it is for a couple holdouts who think 'Kyle acted in self-defense but contributed by bringing the rifle along' to flip over to the 'vote guilty on at least one charge to avoid getting targetted'.

    No Time to Die (007 Bond)

    Don't you mean Eddie Izzard would be Glorious compared to whatever shit we're going to end up with?

    Get a free Kyle Rittenhouse at Culver's

    I was at a Culver's today, but yeah, they've expanded pretty significantly recently. But if we're talking SE WI hamburger places, Nite Owl Drive In - Old-Fashioned Ice Cream Parlor and Sandwich Shoppe wins, though Welcome to Burger + Custard Heaven | Kopp's Frozen Custard isn't bad.

    2021-2022 NFL Season: Deshaun Watson will die a Texan!

    Don't worry, even if the Packers win, a couple of these injuries look like boomerang IR at best scenarios. The Packers aren't going the distance.

    2021-2022 NFL Season: Deshaun Watson will die a Texan!

    I am sure Gruden's contract had any number of 'Conduct Unbecoming' clauses that would justify Davis' firing him. Furthermore, Davis can, of course, fire him at will. Now, whether Davis can legally break the remainder of Gruden's contract is another matter - especially since, as we keep...

    Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings (2021)

    Asians are literally only minorities when it suits the purposes of the person running the statistics. As soon as Asians' success vs time in country, or academic success vs other races (I believe Asians scores best on both of those, including over whites) gets in the way of leftist narratives...

    We can confirm that Love played in college? All kidding aside, the Packers are going to overpay for some veteran backup next year.

    Eternals (2021)

    Audiences have self-selection bias (i.e. the vast majority of people choosing to show up to a Marvel movie on day one are fans of Marvel movies). Critics do not. Those values match the common perception of 'Mediocre-tier Marvel factory film'.

    Wow, where has this defense been this year.

    2021-2022 NFL Season: Deshaun Watson will die a Texan!

    I honestly didn't have high hopes for the Packers to start with, but no WRs should make this painful to watch.

    Blizzard dies and Bobby rides

    All kidding aside, there's no hint of 9.2, which given that its basically November and how the year has gone, means 9.2 is a late Spring / early Summer release, and 10.0 is Spring 2023 at best? Is there even a boxed 10.0, or is that the conversion to free to play?

    Does anyone think the Packers are winning this week? Stick everyone on the covid 19 list.

    2021-2022 NFL Season: Deshaun Watson will die a Texan!

    Everyone assumed prior to the season the NFC went to TB. Nearly halfway in, I think the NFC West may have some say in the matter (Cardinals, Rams), and a couple others could play spoiler in the playoffs (Cowboys, Saints), but good money is still on TB, and thus the AFC is the far more...

    To be clear, the guys have gone after press material before (cough*Captain Marvel* cough), but mostly when the movie is so mediocre or bad I think _they_ are looking for answers on why. But when it comes to savagery, I'm not sure anything tops the American Ultra review.

    Cowboy Bebop

    Jet seemed fantastic. Spike came across as autistic more than exhausted. I don't even know what character the woman was supposed to be, since it sure wasn't Faye.

    I also wonder if getting out of the contract early wasn't a strong factor.

    2021-2022 NFL Season: Deshaun Watson will die a Texan!

    Much like the back half of the '07 Patriots season, everyone brings their A-game against the Chiefs. That said, I wouldn't mind a deepdive that goes into how much of this is Mahomes vs the O-line vs the defense's problems forcing the offense to play too aggressively. To be blunt, when many...

    This game needs to end on a tie, doesn't it?

    It has been a couple years since Crosby completely fell apart, but this is just absurd.

    Packers / Bengals looks like as much of a contest as I thought it would be.

    I don't know how Youtube finances work, but they have no sponsors (outside of occasional Trover Saves the Universe bits) and can't imagine their Patreon brings in that much. Space Cop doesn't look like the work of someone with 8 digits to burn either. Then again, they haven't even hawked new...

    The Boys

    The Chinese Democratic Cultural Revolution may be in full swing, but Fazekas and Butters put out Reaper, Dollhouse, and Agent Carter, none of which were glaringly leftist. Then again, they've hardly been successful in their careers either.

    The refs have more yardage in this game than both teams combined, right?

    Cowboy Bebop

    Judging by the charcters, I was not expecting that level of direct adaptation of individual episodes. If anything, that makes me less interested - the anime episodes still exist. Especially when some of those character designs weren't all that original themselves.

    2021-2022 NFL Season: Deshaun Watson will die a Texan!

    Maybe this new Packers defense will gel later in the season, and I think they win the division, but they will have a hard time getting out of the wildcard round.

    Manning mode has too much internet chat delay for good flow, but I like the concept. Are they really broadcasting the director audio?

    Packers defense is nonexistent under the new DC, so far.

    NFC: TB, Packers, Rams, Cowboys WC: Seahawks, 49ers, Redskins AFC: KC, Bills, Titans, Ravens WC: Dolphins, Browns, Colts Without knowing injuries in advance, TB still has the best roster in the NFC, AND I don't have any faith in the new Saints in being competitive with them. The NFC West...

    Star Trek: Picard

    Once, long ago, I was excited for the Picard show, as we would finally get to see something past DS9 in the timeline. Now, when I see 'they time travel to the 21st century', the only question is "Did they have to cut the budget to that degree since no one wants this show' or 'Are they...

    The Matrix Resurrections (2021)

    This smells like a Terminator: Genisys deal, where the trailers make it look like its a defacto remake, but that is really just the first act of the movie. I referenced Terminator: Genisys for a reason.

    The Matrix Resurrections (2021)

    The original casting plan for the first Matrix was that all of the heroes would be black, and all the agents white. Hollywood creatives haven't become more liberal, the studio heads have stopped reigning them in.

    The photo was commenting on the wealth disparity, not the size. Ironically, the photographer probably didn't know that Amazon wouldn't build a building that tall unless there are 3+ floors and millions? of dollars of robotics equipment (the Roombas SeanDoe1z1 referenced) packed inside there...

    None of them show any sign they are making major income, and unlike a lot of Youtubers, have to pay rent on warehouse space. I'd be shocked if any of them are making much beyond $100k, with the caveat that a lot of silly personal things (Gremlin arms) get listed as business expenses for their...

    2021 NFL Offseason: QB Carousel Imminent -- Retirement Boogaloo

    Honestly, by modern QB backup pay standards, $5.1 Mil wasn't too expensive for draft insurance. It does throw out any ideas that this is a 'Playoffs or Bust' scenario in NE.

    Saints Row 5

    This game feels like an alternate universe where THQ turned into Ubisoft and churned out SR2 sequels every two years. Maybe I'll be surprised, but this just feels like Watch Dogs 17. (P.S. Actually, forget giving out SR3 - I am tempted to play SR4 again. Too bad all the great stuff is way...

    What If...?

    Does it? All we really know is: Coulson is a 'Steve' fanboy.. but Hydra Smasher existed in that timeline. Hawkeye and Fury were alive when they pulled Captain Carter out of the Shuma Gorath portal... but we don't know when that was relative to the first Thor movie. Something with a Captain...

    What If...?

    Much like Mysterio in the second Marvel Spiderman, it does feel like there has to be a second level twist for the comics audience, and not having this be the What If concept we know by having a single timeline would qualify, as well as providing cover for annoying details people point out, like...

    What If...?

    Supposedly a number of voice actors show up in multiple episodes, and I can't imagine they would bring Kurt Russell or Jeremy Renner in for literally one line - we'll probably get followup episodes with Captain Carter in the present and Yondu's crew fighting Ego. Plot twist: Maybe all of the...
