    World of Warcraft: Current Year

    Not a big transmog guy, but hopefully I'm in the beta before I finish my Ulduar and ICC legendary weapons (halfway done w/ shards for each) or I might turn to the dark side.

    Locally there's a lot of 'then the Fertitas could contribute to the Las Vegas stadium deal and/or buy/become part owners of the Raiders and finish bringing them to town' locally. They sold the Palms this week too.

    Yeah, I got one a few years ago for the same reasons, he's not going to be around much longer and got a poor quality copy of an old spider man book signed just as a fan, not really as a collector (or I'd have gotten something nicer than ASM #41 and gotten it CGC'd). Was kind of a sad...

    Comic Books

    I'm down to a couple of books a week, if that. Nothing is interesting and have never been able to really get into indie stuff. Not sure I'd buy any Marvel aside from recent #1s if I wasn't interested in the Apocalypse stuff going on in the X-books. Standoff so completely boring and couldn't...

    I liked DOFP overall, but after how good First Class was I was ready to never revisit that old cast again.

    Yeah, it was a really nice call back to the comic, a nice moment not spoiled by trailers somehow.

    Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice (2016)

    Which I then justified with the rest of my post, what do you disagree with? As demonstrated above by Caliane these movies will continue to be made. What would get people to stop showing up in droves for the MCU would be some poor casting and poor quality outings. Thankfully we don't seem to...

    Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice (2016)

    If there's any bubble, it's probably the MCU. If they have some big misses, push out a couple of movies that aren't that great, miss on recasting Cap and Iron Man among others when the time comes... that momentum for the world they've built and the tempo they release films. Otherwise maybe...

    Deadpool (2016)

    She probably would have chosen one over the other just for the expected residuals, before Deadpool became a surprise blockbuster.

    Marvel Universe stuff

    Definitely know what you mean. They also lack the cohesiveness and continuity of the MCU. Instead we have loosely tied together X-Men movies and spin-offs that are for the most part disconnected. Legion's show and Wolverine movies completely disconnected, New Mutants likely about as connected...

    Virtual Reality

    Having a hell of a time getting room-scale VR working well. Then when things get going OK for a bit the headset just decides to stop tracking (meanwhile you can see the controllers moving on the mirrored screen). Frustrating, will do more troubleshooting tomorrow and rework how I've setup my...

    Got some cables in, so setting up room-space VR in the living room tonight. Office where my PC is right next to it, just wanted to extend the length of the cables connected to the breakout box and get a longer HDMI to feed the living room TV for spectators - having friends over tomorrow night...

    World of Warcraft: Current Year

    They'd probably increase in line with quest rewards, if at all. I'm relatively poor, probably 70k across all my toons. Just didn't care to do the garrison money farming and have unsubbed twice since this expansion released.

    World of Warcraft: Current Year

    Wonder if they're just letting inflation go nuts this expansion, watch it cost 3k to repair our gear.

    Captain America: Civil War (2016)

    $25m Thursday, short of Age of Ultron's $27.6m (BvS 27.7m), but edged it out in IMAX returns ($3 v $3.1m). Still expected to do around $200m this weekend. Scores $25m at Domestic Box Office Haul on Thursday | Comic Book Resources

    I'd kinda forgotten about this until they went into the recruitment bit, the whole theater was giggling and happy, it was awesome. Biggest laugh, maybe of the movie were nearly back to back:

    Dark Souls hit $2.8m, so they added another $51 add-on, oof. Up to about $332 for the game ($80) all the purchasable boss expansions.

    While I'm not a fan of the FF, I just have faith they could be done well and entertaining in the right hands... and their property allows for a lot of things to drive future phases of the MCU.

    Watching a movie was neat, watched a chunk of Deadpool. Couldn't play world of Warcraft on a 100"+ screen though, text too small and an occasional flicker depending on how much was going on on the screen. Audioshield my favorite thing so far. Will do some room scale stuff tomorrow after my...
