    I think it's what most of us were expecting anyway, so I wouldn't really call that a spoiler. More just a confirmation.

    13 Reasons Why

    I read the wikipedia plot of the book they made the show from. It didn't really seem to have any sort of resolution. Just a bunch of blaming (in the form of who gets the tapes) of why the fat girl offed herself. I doubt I will ever actually watch this. Really though, what was the point? Did...

    Kingsman: The Golden Circle (2017)

    Well, this is in the Aliens universe, so it probably doesn't also share with Wick. But I hear that Wick shares with Jurassic World.

    Is there enough time in golden week to watch Naruto? There were like hundreds of episodes... 3 = about 67-68 minutes.

    I just tore through all 4 episodes of Quan. Wow, this show is great. I'm glad it's not "stuck in the game" style, and instead, just like watching some dude play a 1st person CoD style MMO. It's actually entertaining. Only thing I don't like are the stupid smiles the main character makes all...

    The Rock wasn't in 2 Fast 2 Furious. Hell, neither was Vin Diesel. Or Jason Statham for that matter.

    I loved the new offices overlooking the Men's Room. Funny shit. New Internet sounds cool.

    It's not just blue trim. It's blue that's really black trim. How could you NOT betray your species for that? Yum.

    Avatar 2 (2020)

    I must be a heathen, because I still like Avatar for what it was. The story is decent. It gives me a great "MMO" vibe. Remember the reports of all these people killing themselves after it came out, hoping that they would return to life in the world of Avatar? fucking idiots. But the movie...

    Regarding today's shows... Attack on Titan was pretty dope. It looks like the Titans are just Russians, though (ha). Hero Academy was a little dull, but I guess that was to be expected. He doesn't have full All-Might powers yet, so he's a weak bitch relying on others. Re:Creators, the flying...

    Losing your Job

    My wife moved to the US from Japan like 4 years before we met. So she was definitely some of the catalyst for moving. I NEVER thought I was going to leave Pennsylvania outside from taking vacations elsewhere, but then I actually thought about it. She left her parents to go to college and...

    The Magicians

    That's the vibe I got watching the plumber in action. Their parents are the ones that created the spring (turned on the hose), and then the kids are the ones that made a mud village around it.

    Losing your Job

    My old business still exists in Pennsylvania. My father owns it. I was merely the vice-president (in title only). I mainly did sales, though. I live in Hawaii, though. After 20 years doing, sheet metal, I realized it wasn't a passion. And that I didn't even know what my passion actually...

    Losing your Job

    It's a strange question. I've never really thought about what I "like" doing, because I've always had my life pre-planned out by my father who owns the family business. I was eventually going to take over when he died, but then we moved and it changed everything. I realize that I really like...

    Losing your Job

    Haha, you're not kidding. I have a friend that's a police officer. He said the #1 crime out here is crystal. #2 is actually child trafficking. That's on the DL though, because the politicians don't want it to be known because Hawaii is a state that is 100% dependent upon tourists, which is...

    Losing your Job

    How do you choose a new career? I'm only 35, and I have 20 years experience working with my family business. That business was Sheet Metal Fabrication, where I slowly grew from the kid sweeping the floor up to a required position needed for part production, up to sales, then eventually the...

    Berserk

    I'll be honest. I like Berserk as a concept, but the first 2 episodes of this season have done absolutely nothing for me. Granted, the animation is great. I like the rugged look of the show. The fighting/violence is good as well. But the story the first two episodes was more of the same as...

    Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2 (2017)

    I'm under the impression at this stage of the game that Marvel fully trusts in their product (for good reason), so they allow the directors to do what would be best for the brand. The universe isn't ending in the foreseeable future, so there is ALWAYS time to add more at a later date, rather...

    I enjoyed episode 3 of Tsuki ga Kirei. I'm glad that the kid manned so quickly and it wasn't 8-10 episodes of endless moments that could have been. We'll see how it goes, but it's a good start.

    The Magicians

    That was a very good close to the 2nd season. I'm still very much hooked to this show. I wonder how they will fix things for 3. Good job on Quentin from being a hero to a complete failure in a matter of minutes.

    Yeah, I definitely get that vibe also. It was a good episode with a pretty interesting concept for the show. I don't understand how knowing what the kids are would change your disposition towards them, though. Sure, the kids are born just to die, but you wouldn't shit on them for doing that...

    Fast 8 (2017)

    I saw this tonight. It was a dumb movie, but I still enjoyed it. Not a dull moment. It would have been so easy to stop this hacking bitch, but that would have stopped the movie all together. Oh well, at least it was a fun ride.

    I just saw the trailer for this movie for the first time in theaters and honestly, it looked a lot better than when I saw it on my computer. I'll definitely go out to watch this. It'll be the first I didn't wait for dvd to see.

    I liked the new Billions a lot. Looks like Axe is taking the first steps to returning to his old self. It may blow up in his face, though. Especially with Chuck being so hot on his tail. Not to mention that Laura is PISSED. Wendy did a number on her. I wonder if Taylor will crumble under...

    Gundam Thunderbolt has a first season? I see that the very first episode came out back in December 2015, but episode 2 didn't come out until a month ago. And they're only on episode 5 now. Was there something before this?
