    Teaching Sports

    best advice i can give is to remember you are not there to win games. you're not some high paid ncaa or nfl coach or something. you are NOT there to win games. you are there to teach the kids to enjoy their time with you. winning games is fun, but not for the kid who sits on the bench. i...

    Deadpool 2 (2018)

    yes, he wrote it the night they announced he was too busy to do the show. so he wrote a 15 page script to show them that he is not, in fact, too busy.

    Deadpool 2 (2018)

    there WERE scripts written. that's why it got canned actually. he made a joke about taylor swift and they didn't want to deal with the legions of taylor fans boycotting. the higher ups SAID it was because donald glover was too busy to write the script, but the dude put out a 15 page script the...

    Grand Theft Auto V

    if you play by yourself, it looses it's luster after a few hours. with a friend or two? it's responsible for some of the best chaos i've had in my life. it's stuff that if you explain it's totally "had to be there," but it's definitely worth your time. it's EXTREMELY grindy though, so you gotta...

    Far Cry 5

    as said earlier in the thread, pretty much every ubisoft game in the last half decade has had microtransactions. they are really fairly pointless. the assassin's creed microtransactions are basically "show all X on the map." they were all previously classifed as DLC, but they doesn't really make...

    The Netflix Thread

    I watched it while i was texting the out of town girlfriend. I feel like I missed some key moments, like why is this dude in a Japanese prison? Why does he feel so drawn to join the yakuza? He KNOWS they don't really think of him as a real brother... why does the family head even bring him into...

    God of War (2018)

    i think people are saying last of us because combat seems WAY more slowed down that normal, the over the shoulder camera, and having a young tag-a-long with you. beyond that, i don't really think it's much of TLOU. the story MAY be somewhat similar in that joel was ellie's father figure. an...

    God of War (2018)

    yeah, it seems the entire game is a pretty huge departure from the prior games. as far as i'm concerned i'm cool with that. i LOVED the other games but they started to drone on. kratos was a great vehicle for teenage masculinity, but the character got pretty dull pretty quick. what's that...

    Avengers: Infinity War (2018)

    i don't know what it is. logic tells me that 60fps is better. intellectually speaking, it looks so much closer to real life, almost like a filter is taken off and you are stepping INTO the film world... but something about 60fps just puts me in the uncanny valley.

    Avengers: Infinity War (2018)

    hawkeye is in it. i haven't heard anything official that he's ronin, but that seems to be the general understanding. jeremy renner was talking about not being in the trailer. he was like, "hawkeye retired. he's with his family, remember?" i wouldn't be surprised if he has a smallish part in...

    Nailed It!

    Manufactured is a perfect word for this show. I got through the cake pop challenge and turned it off. When they revealed their mess and they each exclaimed "nailed it!" With the exact same level of enthusiasm independently, i was done. I wanted to like it... i love the idea of amateurs trying to...

    Avengers: Infinity War (2018)

    especially in the mcu. mcu hulk is VERY strong but nowhere near the comic version. comic version has no upper limit to his strength, but MCU hulk has been beaten into submission by stark.

    pretty sure it's old dandelion. novigrad had some great story elements, dijkstra was great, the witch hunter stuff was great. i just... it's the city itself. i can't stand navigating in cities.

    there's a lot going on in that interview... most of it is pretty subtle. i don't really like dr phil, but this interview doesn't demonstrate he's a hack, per se. well, it does, but not for the obvious reasons. first off, he's a hack because he's trying to monetize a mental health issue that...

    I, Tonya (2017)

    i was pretty young when it happened and didn't really care enough to follow much of it afterwards, but i NEVER thought tonya wasn't an olympic level skater. i THOUGHT it had more to do with personal issues than professional ones. at the time i thought the narrative was that it was a personal...

    Stephen Hawking, 1942-2018.

    i think edison was well known, probably just because he brought the lightbulb to people's houses. similarly to how, i think a guy like elon musk is pretty well known. but i like elon musk a lot more than i like edison, so that's not quite a far comparison

    Stephen Hawking, 1942-2018.

    this will start to get a bit philosophical, but the truly intelligent people in the world can't really be famous anymore. it's very much the tesla vs edison situation. edison didn't invent the light bulb, tesla did. edison just figured out how to make money off the idea. the current world really...

    Justice League (2017)

    No your right, that works specifically for the killing joke, but it also works if he's got no real origin as well. Because at the end of the day, joker does what he does because he WANTS to. Same as batman. People like to mirror origins for heroes and villains because it's the idea of, if one...

    honestly, joker works best as a no one. ledger's joker nailed the origin... every time he tells someone where he got his scars from, it's a different story. his origin stories should be taken as a madman looking through a lens. and every time he looks at his past, he's looking through a...

    Marvel's Jessica Jones

    i enjoyed all of punisher immensely, though i completely understand the middle slump being unappealing for a lot of people. we'll see if it rings true in s2, but i think the middle subplot was much more of a response to possible public derision due to recent publicity of gun violence. remember...

    Endless Space 2

    combat in moo2 was very dependent on tech. there were a couple of end(ish) game techs that almost completely trivialized combat and made it super quick. i think it was the phase cloak and the warp space interdicter. basically made it so that you would do your turn and phase out of existence...
