    Fallout 76

    Even an Obsidian-made Fallout would get E3 stage treatment, so this is some non-entity that would get buried at E3 otherwise: Metal Gear Survive Fallout? Fortnite Fallout? Hard pass. But if this non-game means the A team is on Starfield, all the better. TLDR: Don't fuck up Starfield and I...

    Destiny 2 - Clan Link 1st Post

    Patch game yesterday, play today, 340+ in all slots, only real option for progression already is praying to the RNG Powerful Loot Pinata in future weeks, memorized new planet already, "New" Strikes are missions I did earlier today. I actually wish the shooting didn't feel so damn good, then I...

    I wish they hadn't included that shot of flashback David halfway in, ruined any mystery in the episode.

    Avengers: Infinity War (2018)

    The Homecomings are Sony pictures and wouldn't be part of that. RDJ, Evans, etc. had separate contracts with Sony to appear in those. It would put an interesting twist on whatever the Phase 4 mashup will be though (assuming Spidey is in enough of A4 to count).

    Avengers: Infinity War (2018)

    Like everyone else, I sat through the credits, and I was utterly befuddled when they credited Arrested Development. "Was there a TV on in the background on Earth?", I thought. Then again, the guys (who directed the AD pilot, remember) also did this...

    Avengers: Infinity War (2018)

    God damnit I can't stand that ending. The only announced Marvel or Marvel-related movies after Avengers 4 are New New Spidey 2, Strange 2, Panther 2, and a Guardians featuring Groot and Rocket - and that ending invalidates every one of them. NO ONE IS GOING TO BELIEVE THIS STICKS. Now, if all...

    Heh, Barnwell's review: "It’s hard to believe that the Browns couldn’t have traded down and still grabbed Denzel Ward. Really hard to believe. Like maybe their phone lines are down."

    Who did the Browns think was going to take a CB that they couldn't have traded down, at least until SF?

    I havent heard the trade alert. Are they Brown really keeping Chubb over all the picks they could get in trade?

    When Bill Barnwell preemptively writes a piece saying how dumb that pick will be, you know you dun goofed.

    The Giants would be absolutely fools to think Manning will cover them for years more (especially when you see what the Glennons of the world get paid, much less Mannings). Everything suggests the Giants are so beholden to Eli for getting them SB victories that they will be fools. I'd love to...

    Actually no, not in the least. The 'facts' are: Benny was a chubby dude that fingerbanged some gal, stole her oven, did drugs with David, and got in a fight with David's sister (speaking of which, what ever happened to her or her husband?) "Lenny" was a person with Aubrey Plaza's physical...

    I hope this season was written with a firm ending in mind, because considering the ratings trajectory, that premiere will not win any new converts. Also really fuzzy on what Plaza is now. If she's SK, how can she be trapped in SK's mind (the pool)? Is she just his id or negative aspects?!?

    That noise you just heard was the entire NBA saying "THIS". Seriously, the Jets' meaningless (in the long-term) 3 point wins against the Browns and Jaguars pushed them from 2/3 to 6. Each of those wins essentially cost then 1.5 second round draft picks. If ever there needed to be a defense...

    Well, the set shots from Avengers 4 are reportedly filled with people in old outfits. Whether Thanos nukes the timeline, the heroes give up on beating him in the present and try to alter the past to do it, or it is some weird montage where Stark gets the gauntlet and tries to come up with a...

    If you somehow couldn't understand why Garrapolo got the contract he did, $15 Mil guaranteed for 1 year of Bradford says it all. As for Cousins, smells like Elway's feeling the heat - how Cousins turns out will either end Elway or get him another decade in the job. I doubt the contract will...

    I desperately hope Pederson's half time speech is just a clip of the Jags at half time saying "This is what happens to us if you slow down for even a minute".

    NFL 2017-18: Watch athletes destroy their brains

    Obviously, I'm rooting for the Eagles. Obviously, I'm picking the Patriots. The Patriots can be beat, but it takes four quarters of constant pressure while not having their opponent make any turnovers. The odds are against that happening. (Also, totally not trying to reverse-jinx.)

    None of the females have repeated between movies until now.
