With Game of Thrones functioning in part as a response to and a subversion of Tolkien's Lord of the Rings I must say that never finishing the story fits perfectly. Instead of your son protecting your most important literary contribution and stewarding it through the decades you instead don't...

Hey, Rich quit reading Spiderman the same time I did with One More Day. Spiderman makes a deal with the devil to nuke his marriage so his elderly aunt can live a little bit longer. This nukes a bunch of character development and shreds several currently running plots all at the same time...

Boner comedy about nerds driving across country for the best deal on computer parts

Growing up raised by humans he became a total weeb (for Klingon stuff). His idealism runs head first in to the reality of the Klingon Empire on numerous occasions across both TNG and DS9 adding depth to the character and conflict for the writers to explore. Hell, towards the end of DS9 he...

There's more than you might think

I've got it in the "like" category but it can be a challenge. The distance between the cool parts gets pretty fucking wide. I caught the sequel for the first time last year and actually really liked it. Hal gets a character arc even. It shares nothing in terms of aesthetic with Kubrick's film...

Pacing? I've got your pacing right here. I was in to sci fi and horror at an irresponsibly early age so I was willing to give a lot of stuff a chance. When I first saw Planet of the Apes it was 25 years old it wasn't even as old then as The Matrix is now. It made a fucking mountain of cash...

Didn't Tuco play all those games and report on them?

I caught a ton of movies when I was a 90s kid that were from the 60s and 70s because of basic cable combined with nothing else going on. Given all of the available options today I can't see how young people would choose to sit down and watch any particular movie of 20/30/40/whatever years ago...

They tweeted no Trial of the Sekhema as soon as people saw the hourglass and freaked out.

I'm a little more interested in seeing if Trial of the Ancients or Mercenaries make it back in than how the new mechanic works.

I like Flags of Our Fathers and the book as well but something about the film comes off a little corny. It's off in some way. Iwo Jima doesn't have that problem. At all.

You put in Chatterbox, you get a talking vagina, all is well in the world. Deep Throat? The Devil in Miss Jones? They delivered. You know with Mondo Topless that you're in Russ Meyer's safe hands. Then someone unscrupulous producer decides to take advantage of porn's good name and fleece honest...

It's time to explain the birds, the bees and that Debbie never actually goes to the city of Dallas Texas.

There's enough meat on that tree that you could nerf it quite a lot and have it still be good for early atlas progression. We've had Rog for a while now and if they dial the tree in to somewhere around where Expedition is at that would be fine.

Expected but still nice to see. Having another early game atlas option is going to be nice assuming the tree isn't fucked with too much.

I'm a sucker for the scion so I'm all for them getting access to their Phrecia ascendancy. The only drawback I could think of for core Scavenger was it would add a lot of junky Flame/Flesh combos and dilute the overall pool for everyone a bit. I expected more people in Keepers to hop on the...

A bold design decision.

They had been married since '91 with the eventual divorce in '99. I know it was a time before the smartphone but "fuck me in public in this leather bar" is some real dumb shit for someone with political aspirations. Bro had to know her tastes by then and pushed anyway.

Is it as accessible as League of Legends was in comparison to DotA? If the inputs and timing are mechanically demanding then I'm not sure how the free to play microtransaction model was ever going to work.

The odds that it does not eventually end up in the hands of someone willing to dig up the corpse and make it dance for cash are zero. He's fucked. He knows he's fucked. Dying with it undone might be optimal.

2KXO is a three versus three Japanese style tag fighter. Those games are incredibly complex. It was never going to have mass appeal.

"There’s supposed to be another Fire and Blood book" Martin, Fire and Blood fucking sucked.

There are striking similarities but I always thought pornhub was a meme

I finished up A Stitch in Time and for someone who regards DS9 as their favorite Star Trek series it exceeded all expectations. As Garak's memoirs and gift of sorts to Bashir it's both prequel and epilogue taking place along different times in his Garak's life through childhood to the end of the...

There's the famous Robbers Cave Experiment where two groups of boys at a camp were pitted against each other but they were kinda getting fucked with by the experimenters the entire time...

This is Ira Steven Behr. He was one of the producers. Why yes, his beard is purple.

Yeah, basically

As far as gritty reboots go this short film puts in more effort than projects with 100x the budget.

If breach didn't have those fucking hives filling huge swaths of areas with obstructive ugly shit it would have been better received. If you're trying to speed through the campaign quickly it's all burden no benefit. When you get to mapping it can get in the way of or otherwise play no part in a...

I never did so I'm not completely burned out on the format.

It's a pretty dumb show but it is fun enough to stick with.

This is the last book in The Laundry series. Initially described as Dilbert meets Cthulhu when the series began it's really far more serious than that with an increasingly dark tone from book to book. The author got 9 or so books in and then stopped telling stories about the fictional Laundry...

Bigger runtime than I was expecting and he's in character? This is more effort than I am accustomed to which a television show tie in novel.

SFDebris started out doing written (yes, really) reviews of Voyager and his production quality has never kept up with advancements but today he uploaded the first part of a review of Andrew Robinson's book about Garak. During the show he had written a diary for Garak to help him understand the...

You move the timeline up so that all the slaves are free and the desertification through magic is mostly fixed (heroic cabal of women practitioners) but there's a holdout of baddies for our diverse team of diversity to go stop. They want to make everything a slave desert again because they're...
