    American Gods

    As a Wisconsinite I've been to The Rock many a time (I had Floridian relatives that dragged us along everytime they came up, probably because it was the only thing in the whIole state that qualifies as bugnuts), and can confirm it is trashy as hell, a recent revamp has made it waaay too...

    Star Wars: The Last Jedi (2017)

    I was thinking Lord of the Rings, personally. (Though I've always assumed Roddenberry straight up stole the races from LOTR and its spinoffs when making Star Trek, with Vulcans = Elves, Klingons = Orcs, Ferengi = Goblins, Romulans = Dark Elves, etc.) But Poe's the thing everyone loved the most...

    NFL 2017 Offseason - Where does Romo go?

    Didn't Jerrah "cut" Kyle Orton and let Kitna keep all his bonuses in the last couple years? It may not make sense to cut Romo, but there is precedent.

    Legion

    Unfortunately, David has shown his memory is not to be trusted. But I can't express how smitten I am with the Shadow King (or whomever) feeling his power at birth, marrying his mom, and corrupting him in person throughout childhood. Now that's some supervilliany. Though I expect we'll get a...

    John Wick: Chapter Two (2017)

    While it has way more kills, that infographic is flat out wrong. None of the chop shop fights are (intended as, anyway) kills - he was trying to make peace with Stormare and pointedly did not go for confirmation headshots like he does everywhere else. And again, both of the knife "kills" aren't...

    Legion

    Well the weird (and suggestive of him being a different being that is poisoning David's mind) thing is that Yellow Bastard's height changes - tall when he's attempting suicide or the rookie Syd has taken his body (and has no experience defending against him?), and much shorter otherwise.)

    John Wick: Chapter Two (2017)

    I thought it was a significant step back from the original. First you have the shoehorned marker background that drives the plot, then you have the stereotypical five-minutes-with-each-character-from-the-first, then (ironically in a movie with multiple Matrix actors), every named character but...

    Legion

    Nah, I am pretty sure everyone is real at the end - the camera goes out of its way to not show David specifically kill the one guard, which wouldn't track with the rest of the guards that get murdered in the escape. Apparently his father is the same as the comics, but I'm not sure anything else...

    Legion

    This first episode is borderline fantastic. Which could be a problem. Like all superhero stories, you have the issue of what you do once you are done with their origin. On top of that, it is difficult to imagine future episodes given the time or budget this got. (Hell, if I remember they even...

    John Wick: Chapter Two (2017)

    Meh, I thought it was one of the weakest ones they've put out in a quite a while. The complaints were utterly toothless* (I think they spent more time griping about Taken and The Matrix) and didn't point out anything new or funny. Compare it to for legitimately funny "complaints". *Of course...

    Your Team Declarations...

    As someone who's lived in Wisconsin and only cares about the NFL, I won't even notice unless its Bucks / Badgers / Marquette. But for the NFL, I am a notorious two-team faggot: the Packers (obviously) and then my adopted AFC team, someone that hasn't been in the playoffs recently but seems to...

    NFL Postseason 2017 - Where Romo Gets His Ring

    I am so fucking disappointed the Patriots won. But man they earned it. Though Atlanta shot themselves in both feet and both hands. And that's before half the coaching staff leaves for San Fran.

    How the hell did the Patriots go from 0 TD plays to effectively four? WTF Atlanta.

    What the fuck is this field goal bullshit? You don't get style points for hitting double digits.

    This mix is bad, Gaga's beer abs are bad, and the Rocky Horror Gridiron Show look isn't working.

    Unless Julio has a coronary right now, this game is over. 2016 NFL season redeemed!

    NFL Postseason 2017 - Where Romo Gets His Ring

    I'd like to think it could be a real game, but the Patriots Defense is just way better than Atlanta's. Sure, Belichick could be too cautious again and keep it unnecessarily close, but I doubt it. And yeah, this is way quieter than usual. Half of it is the Pats have been the prohibitive...

    World of Warcraft: Current Year

    Am I missing something with the Artifact changes in 7.2? 1) They take away and bank all the points we've spent in the +Betterer final ability. 2) We do a trivial quest line. 3) We spend the banked points on the 6 or so new trait points... and then spend the rest of our points on the new...

    NFL Postseason 2017 - Where Romo Gets His Ring

    Do we really have to go through the definition argument every year? If it was Most Important (compared to replacement), it was Carr in a landslide. If it is Best 16 Games, it is Ryan. If it is Best 16 Plays, it is Rodgers. If it is Best Average Game, it is Brady. But since they usually vote...

    NFL Postseason 2017 - Where Romo Gets His Ring

    I remember when we thought this season was over once the Patriots' backup QBs managed to go 3-1. "The only chance the Pats don't have of winning it all is if they get a crappy playoff seed", we thought. God damn it.

    Hugh Jackman: Logan

    Last I heard: 1) McAvoy/Fassbender/Lawrence are no longer under contract, Fox doesn't want to pay Lawrence her now-going rate, and the three are saying they won't star in a movie without the other two. 2) Singer was supposed to jump ahead another decade and do a real "Phoenix Saga", set in the...

    NFL Postseason 2017 - Where Romo Gets His Ring

    I realize Yesterday was an eternity ago in internet years, but people do remember that out of the 8 teams that played this weekend, the Falcons were the only ones who looked like they wanted to win, right?

    You obnoxious Patriot-lite dickhead Cowboy fans can take this game and... console yourself with being the best NFC team for the next half decade or so.

    Fucking Patriots. They dick around for half a game and remind the Cowboys they can't assume the game is a gimme, reducing the Packers chances' even more. Bunch of assholes.

    Nintendo Switch (previously NX)

    Ninty followed up on their last overpriced, weak lineup portable... by creating an overpriced, weak lineup portable that has a cable out to your TV so they can call it a console and nickle and dime you to death. TLDR: CEMU the WiiU Zelda and see what price drop E3 2018 (yes, 8) has.

    Nintendo Switch (previously NX)

    Yeah, those prices for the Pro / controlettes your kids will lose instantly ain't cool. As mentioned above, CEMUing Zelda and any other Wii U titles you skipped and seeing how much Nintendo drops this by next January seems increasingly tempting.

    Nintendo Switch (previously NX)

    So just Zelda for launch? That worked on original Wii because Sports came packed in and was groundbreaking. I don't see Arms / 1-2 coming with or being anywhere in Sports' neighborhood. Again, the whole upside of Switch is the Nintendo ghetto is cheaper to cover, has all teams working on the...

    Justice League (2017)

    That picture is almost fractally weird. When did Batman become Owlman? (Obviously, once Snyder got involved.) Why did they drug the Wonder Woman mannequin? And why does she have hooves? Why is Cyborg's crotch made from a Transformer? Why are his dimensions so goofy to begin with? (Seriously...

    Eli's arm is gone (for good?) and a revolving door at RB. Any info on Ben? Hoping more than just Seahawks/Falcons is worth watching next week.

    Suicide Squad (2016)

    There's a well-publicized set of actors (Courtney, Dermot Mulroney, etc.) that keep getting work despite virtually no one enjoying their finished product. They are apparently all charismatic as hell... in person (which is why casting directors keep giving them work), with none of that...

    NFL 2016 - <whatever Tony is doing>

    I'm not even sure I want the Packers to win. 6 Seed going against Seattle (who gave up how much to the 49ers?) and then a sleepy Cowboys run by rookies? Or a home game against the Giants defense and then trying to outscore the Falcons?
