    WandaVision

    Ya, Monica/Photon is an interesting character, but they did feel rather wasted in the show. Beyond it serving as an origin story and a setup for CM2, she could have been almost completely absent and not a whole lot would have changed to the plot. And ya, Xmen Quicksilver just being a meta...

    Marvel Universe stuff

    I think because of the escalating stakes, they've had to power up everyone a lot more than normal. At this point, it's like Dragon Ball Z. Hawkeye and Black Widow were basically the Yamcha and Krillans, while everyone else is a Saiyan or Nameckian or Android. And when you become a Yamcha...

    Twitch.tv

    Streaming can be very stressful if it is your only source of income 1) Requires significant time investment to be successful in most cases, especially when you include the stuff beyond the actual stream (promoting on other platforms, etc) 2) You're basically an independent contractor. Unless...

    WandaVision

    Good point, I think a lot of it has to do with age. Anyone who grew up watching Full House or all those direct-to-TV/DVD movies they produced post-Full House will know who they are. They even had video games for Gameboy based on those movies. To Ambiturner's point, they would probably be more...

    You're an idiot if you don't think that certain elements or metals, and knowledge on how to best use them or exploit them, don't have an impact on the technological advancement of a society. Then couple that with an abundant supply of said mineral and you're off to the races. The...

    WandaVision

    The final stinger is significant because the Darkholdt book is basically an intelligent book that will show you what you want to see and give you instructions on how to get what you want. The catch is that the longer you read it, the more corrupted you become and begin to covet the knowledge in...

    WandaVision

    Ya, Hayward becoming some cartoonish villain willing to murder kids and crush skulls with no understandable motivation was stupid. At least Agatha we could understand her POV: She wanted power and felt like Wanda was just wasting it. Hayward wanted a Vision he could control to do...what? They...

    WandaVision

    It's an interesting thought experiment that frequently comes up when discussing advancements in technology that could replace parts of your body with artificial replacements, or the possibility of consciousness/mind transference into an artificial vessel: At a certain point, are you still you...

    WandaVision

    Ya, I liked that part. Using logic to resolve the conflict. The show essentially setup multiple movie threads.

    I'm staying away from the internet until I watch it lol

    Theater Chain Death Watch? Chapter 11s inc

    I vaguely recall some article by him where he claimed to have worked towards that on that site, but that would have been like 15+ years ago

    Ashes of Creation

    It’s a combo of both. Certain nodes will spawn different dungeons/bosses.

    Ashes of Creation

    Unless they changed it, based on prior talks it sounds like most of it will be procedurally generated (although they claim it won’t feel that way. Insert grain of salt here)

    The Mandalorian

    Arnold probably didn’t tell his wife because she is part of the Kennedy family and he was running Republican (moderate, but still)

    Artifact - The DOTA Card Game

    They really fucked themselves with the half baked, ultra monetized launch and steep learning curve. Awesome they tried to retool it, but they had to do a lot more to make it accessible

    Ashes of Creation

    Beyond his “dynamic dungeon” mechanic, I am dubious about PVE content in this game

    Ashes of Creation

    He was trying to basically make his own version of Archeage, so not surprising there are lots of familiar elements

    Theater Chain Death Watch? Chapter 11s inc

    Harry Knowles LOL, haven’t heard that in forever. His website used to be the go to for movie news back in the early 2000s. That site is where I first heard about Alamo Drafthouse.

    Yes, they’re lampooning Qanon as well

    Theater Chain Death Watch? Chapter 11s inc

    The FDA had given "emergency" approval for the Pfizer, J&J, and Modera vaccines. That means they haven't undergone the normal scrutiny most drugs have to go through, but the data provided by the manufacturers is sufficient enough to allow for it under current federal guidelines for the COVID...

    Theater Chain Death Watch? Chapter 11s inc

    They limit spread, like sneezing into your arm limits spread of droplets instead of just hosing your fucking mucus into the air. No one is pretending cloth masks you buy from Target = N95 or other medical grade shit that are going to filter viral particles, except fucking idiots. Cloth masks...

    Superman & Lois

    This has some HBO Max funding behind it, so the tonal shift might have a good deal to do with that.

    Theater Chain Death Watch? Chapter 11s inc

    Government of Texas (who are trying to conservative virtue signal), not the rest of the country. But right, at restaurants and the theater people are going sans-mask while eating, which is a major reason why many people are staying clear of those locations for now. Consumer behavior isn't...

    Theater Chain Death Watch? Chapter 11s inc

    The masks aren't meant to be viral protection, just limiters on spread of aerosolized droplets from people. People wearing masks has more to do with them not spreading to others vs. stopping something from spreading to you. Because people are fucking idiots and get others sick all the time...

    Stargate: Origins

    I wonder if they saw the writing on the wall regarding Showtime and figured making something more syndication friendly was a better long term solution. It always did feel sort of out of place, it was like "we're on Showtime, we need tits and swearing!", then they realized they didn't lol

    They've been advertising the special for around a month, this is just the newest promo spot

    2021 NFL Offseason: QB Carousel Imminent -- Retirement Boogaloo

    Cheerleaders don’t even show up on TV outside of pre-commercial breaks when they do those montages of fans and the sideline shit to fill screen time

    WandaVision

    They did mention Nexus in a commercial, so that will fact in to a degree

    Superman & Lois

    Looks like the newest episode confirmed some theories about Captain Luthor

    WandaVision

    Ya, that tweet probably means no Mephisto or Doctor Strange. It will be White Vision and they all have to team to fight him, then Monica helps out.

    Ghost n' Goblins is one of the few NES games I owed as a kid that I never beat. I think the furthest I ever got was like the third stage or something. It was an incredibly unforgiving game and the jump and knockback mechanics are mostly to blame for that. When you jumped in that game, it felt...

    Clips shows usually do suck when they are just reused old clips. Though SG1's ending to their clip episode was super memorable lol

    If you accept that the Infinity Stones are basically energy, then energy cannot be destroyed. It just changes forms. Presumably given enough time, or the right conditions, I am assuming they would eventually reconstitute.

    Defiance

    Tabula Rasa felt like it set a record for shortest lived MMO. Been so long, but wasn't it basically just tab target and didn't even have shooting mechanics legitimately? At least Defiance had actual gunplay, even if the gunplay wasn't the best.

    Right, not sure where this Kathleen Kennedy rumor started and caused the knee jerk dorks on the forum to review bomb it already lol
