    The Woman King (2022)

    Props to Lupita Nyong'o for walking away from this trash after she got a good look from the inside, even if she probably isn't bold enough to call it out for being trash.

    If your ankle was that fucked up you'd know before being helped to your feet.

    After catching a clip of the injury, maybe it isn't a season ender. Looks like he didn't even know he was hurt until someone helped him up and he tried to put weight on it.

    So I guess the eye-surgery didn't make a difference after all.

    Fall 2022 Anime Thread

    The Progressive LNs are a retelling of the Aincrad arc from Asuna's POV instead of Kirito, the movies could be called a very soft reboot since I think the events progress slightly differently.

    Arm roast without much fat on it but the only thing I did significantly different was I normally slow-cook roasts in a lipton soup mix with enough water so its about half submerged and this time I guess I used more water than usual because it was fully submerged (but just barely).

    Wonder if there is any connection between that and a lot of people not feeling safe in Paris these days.

    This was also probably the most tender I've ever gotten a roast in a slow-cooker. They always come apart pretty easily but yesterday's arm roast absolutely disintegrated, which contributed to the overall glop appearance.

    I did thicken it up with corn starch, it was just too much sauce. It's easy to mess up when you're making a slow-cooker sized meal and just sorta flying by the seat of your pants, but I think going forward I'll have the process ironed out a bit better. The important thing was that it didn't...

    Fall 2022 Anime Thread

    On the one hand, I want to be excited about MHA S6, Uzaki-Chan S2, Spy x Family S2, Jujutsu Kaisen movie, and Slime movie all in one season but it's hard to get enthusiastic when I think of someone who will watch literally any garbage classified as anime but won't watch Kaguya.

    Wow, almost like I used the qualifier "pretty sure" for a reason. Also a pretty big difference between 'limited forms of jus soli' and 'fuck it any wetback who manages to pop out their anchor-baby north of the rio grande gets to stay here forever'

    You're Eurotrash iirc, and I'm pretty sure every single muslim infested shithole in your entire god forsaken union still requires that the parents be citizens for the child to be granted citizenship.

    well the noodles i thought looked good were actually cheap and i made a little too much sauce, so it was stroganoff flavored beef and noodle glop that looked pretty terrible tbh, but it tastes great so whatever.

    Rings of Power: Tolkien's Shambling Skinsuit

    This attempt to excuse her shitty portrayal is so bad it could have come straight from Morfydd Clark herself. Galadriel was described as one of the greatest Eldar of Valinor, second perhaps only to Feanor himself in power but surpassing him in wisdom. This is while she's still in Valinor, before...

    Watson is not the main character, he's a framing device. Holmes is still the main character.

    lol that's a big whoopsie from me, I forgot that Mon Mothma doesn't give the briefing until RotJ. So another strike against Rogue One is the plothole they created of why the de facto leader of the Rebellion after the death of Senator Organa fled the Yavin base when everyone else stayed to fight...

    Rings of Power: Tolkien's Shambling Skinsuit

    Who the fuck are you talking to clown? Do you realize Chris claimed that Sherlock Holmes isn't the protagonist of his own fucking story and that that the deuteragonist Watson is actually the protagonist? The meaning of protagonist is very fucking simple and has nothing to do with that nonsense...

    Rings of Power: Tolkien's Shambling Skinsuit

    I'm pretty sure that Morfydd Clark is just as much of a problem as the terrible writing. The Dol Guldur scene in the Hobbit movies is is not particularly well written (seeing as how its completely made the fuck up and contrary to what we are told in the books) but Cate Blanchett had the gravitas...

    The galaxy being a big place is indeed why you don't need to explain where Ahsoka or the crew of the Ghost is (although from the easter eggs you could infer that the remnants of Phoenix Wing likely took part in the Battle of Scarif), but Rogue One transitions directly into A New Hope. If Mon...

    I try not to join the dogpile on you when you say stupid things but god damn man there are limits. Whoever taught you that bullshit definition of protagonist is a fucking moron, and so are you if you keep insisting that it's accurate.

    No, actually, we don't fucking like it at all. Because they took an story idea that probably could have been done in an episode or two of a TV show, painfully padded the run time out well past two hours, and wedged it into a tiny time period where if any of the characters did survive it would...

    2022-23 NFL Season : Herbert's march to Glendale

    I think I posted a summary of their QB draft failures just yesterday, they also drafted one of the Brady 6 and in 91 the Falcons barely saved them from missing on Favre as well.

    Anybody got a good recipe for stroganoff sauce? I'd like to think I can come up with something a bit more sophisticated than lipton onion-mushroom + sour cream.

    Try a 45 year search, Namath is still their franchise passing leader. I don't think anybody has wasted as many QB draft picks as the Jets, either by forcing a QB pick in a year without a QB worth picking (Mark Sanchez, Geno Smith) or picking the wrong goddamn player (O'Brien over Marino...

    She's still stupid even after she finally starts learning, she's just not confidently aggressive with her stupidity like her mother was. But that meek, sheltered, kinda stupid girl she started the series as was right out of the books. And I think Arya herself was fine, the shit writers just did...

    I mean he even fooled Galadriel when you come down to it. Her suspicion may have ultimately led to Celebrimbor forging the Three in secret (which was a really big deal), but they didn't stop all the other shit Sauron managed to do in the guise of Annatar.

    I didn't say it would be a hand to hand fight, I just said a no rules fight to the death. But yes, 'stay alive until your buddy can shoot him' is the training standard in the military and it's appropriate.

    Second this. There are no words in Elvish, Entish, or the tongues of Men to adequately describe how badly Season 4 ruins the series. I've never even gone back for a re-watch.
