    I just watched the first episode of Kaiju. Really strong episode. I'm digging it.

    Spring 2024 Anime Thread

    My favorite new show of the season is that Chinese one. Dragon Raja is just incredible. But I'm only watching the Japanese version, which audibly sounds nice as opposed to the horrendous sounds that is spoken Chinese. Vile sounding language. I'm also really enjoying Elf Bride, and the Goblin...

    It's a badass show. My wife hasn't tried watching it yet, so I'll get her to as soon as it's over.

    Playstation 5

    When I was out visiting my parents out in PA, they shared an easy dice game they've been playing. Farkle. And you can play it with 2 or more people (no limit). Very easy game. My kids seem to really like it as well. You can buy a cheap plastic version on Amazon for $8. Or a nicer (less...

    I'm with you on that list.. mostly. I took Dainanaoji off because the 2nd episode bugged me. Mainly that fucking old man that runs around controlling things. Oh, and Bartender is also a great show. Add that to your list.

    The Joe Rogan Experience (JRE)

    Yeah, that makes a lot of sense. I just think it would be neat being able to speak to everyone, even if you hate them. Just the ability to talk with someone in important.

    The Joe Rogan Experience (JRE)

    I listened to #2117 with Ray Kurzweil today at work. During the podcast, Ray kept talking about how AI is going to make the world a better place or something along those lines. I hardly agree with him, but it could make it an interesting place. Joe brought up that what AI should work on is...

    Dune: Part Two (2023)

    Just got done watching this. I wasn't a fan of the first one, so I was going to skip this all together, but a friend asked if I was going to see it, so I went as a friend thing. This one was a lot more enjoyable than the first for me. It was definitely long, but it wasn't bad. And Zendya's...

    I just watched Dragon Raja. When it first started, I really wasn't expecting ANYTHING. But I watched the entire 47 minute episode and I really liked it. Even though it's a Chinese show. I'm down for this one.

    I hung out with a few Clan of Shadows people IRL. They seemed to mostly be located in or around Philly. I drove Makaveli & Luna to parties and shit because they drank WAY too much. Good times.

    The X-Files

    I remember the tiny indian guy that didn't have legs but would roll around on a skateboard to get places. I'm pretty sure he had something to do with aliens. Or maybe he was just a weird looking dude that was what they guessed was the bad guy, but turned out not to be. I don't remember that...

    I've been reading the manhwa for Wind Breaker for years, and I really like it. The ONLY thing I haven't liked is just how fucking thuggish all the Korean gang guys really think they are. A bunch of tiny rice joggers.

    Oppenheimer (2023)

    On my fight from Philly back to Hawaii, I gave this a watch. It was decent enough, but the only reason I kept watching it was because I was stuck in an airplane. I'd rather be just browsing the net, if that makes sense. It told the story, but I didn't really care about it. Oh well.

    Just gotta jump into the new shit. I haven't watched any of it yet, though. That said, the return of slime is good and Moonlight Fantasy is continuing. And with this season being complete and I've finished watching everything I was watching, I'll jump over to the spring 2024 thread.

    The season finale of Dangers of my Heart was a homerun as well. I really liked how this season worked out.

    Season Finale of Solo Leveling was good shit. I like how it's animated. Excellent action sequences. And the voice actors are doing it well. Even making a Korean light novel into a Japanese language anime. No complaints.

    Kinds of Kindness (2024)

    I don't understand at all what the trailer was trying to show. It didn't seem like a movie. More of a "and this happened". Could be a random YouTube video.

    Ghostbusters: Frozen Empire (2024)

    The villain was pretty pointless, but I still enjoyed the movie for what it was. A brainless popcorn flick. The motorcycle they rode in the beginning had the license plate of ECTO C, which made me think of Ecto Cooler, the Hi-C drink.

    That was best military commercial in history. The full song.

    LitRPG

    If you haven't read it yet, I strongly suggest giving Overgeared a try. It's a very involved web novel about a guy that plays the worlds best VR MMO and is terrible at it, only to eventually become pretty good. Great characters all around. Good battle sequences, good plot. Fantastic story...

    I agree. And through that whole almost lesbian encounter, we learn that women cause the problems then somehow fix them. I guess?

    I saw it today while visiting my Dad. He wanted to watch it. I didn't think it was bad. It kept my attention, even though I suspected almost the entire end. Not a fantastic movie, but I didn't dislike it. So that's a plus. Now to show my kids the first 2 and the first with Paul Rudd.
