    Objectivist libertarian aliens reject your calls for regulation.

    The Tomorrow War (2021)

    They're already making a sequel. 200 million more just shoved onto the fire. Why not?

    Loki

    This is definitely the best show they've done so far. We'll see if they fuck it up next week. It's pretty weird and random, the whole TVA thing is just off the wall, I was truly expecting celestials. Kind of captures my memory of these weird galactic-lore comics, strange and random. Not great...

    What did you just read?

    I dont want to spoil anything for people who care about that, but generally speaking everything after they entered the tomb was some of the best fantasy I've ever read. Fucking legit amazing story and characters. I don't know if I would have that same opinion if I hadn't supplemented with...

    The Tomorrow War (2021)

    I could swear there was a moment where they figure out that they don't send back people living in that time period to prevent a "time paradox" which isn't explained and also makes no sense given there are only like 35 humans left at the end. 200 million fucking dollars. Jesus christ dudes.

    The Tomorrow War (2021)

    I was going to say you're wrong, but I couldn't think or tons of great examples, so I looked up some list of the best sci-fi of the past 20 years and it had Reign of Fire on it so lol guess not

    What did you just read?

    I finished Gardens of the Moon recently and I actually loved it, even though I couldn't tell you what it was about until towards the end. Even then I had to relisten to several portions and read chapter summaries on some of the early chapters , so dense. I had to put Deadhouse Gates on pause...

    This movie was not good. The central premise makes zero fucking sense.

    Marriage and the Power of Divorce

    Do you think she will be better off 10 years from now? A house isn't everything, if a new partner is something she wants it will get harder and harder with each passing year for her to find someone. I get it, it's a rough decision. But the real talk is that you have fucked up your marriage over...

    Marriage and the Power of Divorce

    13 years here. You've fucked things up super badly. You're clearly not with her out of love, or at least not the same kind of love she is wanting. And she is not providing you with what you want, although you almost certainly have some sort of psycho-sexual disorder, still even if you address...

    This is definitely turning out to be a weird series. What in the fuck did I just watch.

    Comic Books

    Yeah, they've tried to replace them in some ways. Savage was kind of like a Turok replacement that they then turned into a farce, which is weird. They really expanded on the Shadowman stuff and that was always cool. But not a cool as Solar.

    Comic Books

    I loved Valiant, easily my favorite super hero comics from the 90s. Barry Windsor Smith is a goddamn artistic genius. Solar was far and away my favorite but I liked most of their titles up until Unity. I even bought Jim Shooters Plasma bullshit after he left the company. They recently brought...

    Indiana Jones 5 (2020)

    I remember reading about all the accounting shenanigans that the studio was using to get out of paying, to the point where they hadn't even paid the Tolkien estate like 10 years later. Connery would have sucked and he wouldn't have gotten paid.

    Star Trek: Picard

    In the end they threw it out for a system focused on equity, social programs, and reparations. Truly ahead of their time.

    Rumors they were pushing at the time is that he was partying a lot, drug use etc. Drug addled famous person makes bad decisions, news at 11.

    They released this I guess intended as a primer, I dont think it shows anything new besides more specifically breaking out the characters.

    What are people using for comics these days? Since 32pag.es went down I haven't really been reading as much. There are 2 comic shops near me with tons of back catalog, tempting to start buying physical copies again but I don't have the space to keep up with all that anymore.

    Yeah I have a faint memory of there being some kind of conflict surrounding both her exit and Tasha Yar's, but when I looked it up there was nothing.

    Star Trek: Picard

    I read some article where she said that she didn't reup the contract because it was only for 1 year and she thought Becker had potential to take off. Then it didn't work out, but she was already written out and one of the main issues she had with the show was the schedule anyway.

    Star Trek: Picard

    I really liked that part of the show. It had a lot of the same traps that other Star Trek shows fall into, but the growth of these characters over the series really stands out in all of Trek. Dumar is a good example, but I think Dukat is a more negative example. His whole thing after the death...

    I was pumped for it initially but when it came out I quickly realized it was bad and pointless. Doomsday was so lame. Same thing with Bane and breaking batman, lame event comics that dont really mean anything.

    The Matrix Resurrections (2021)

    I don't think that race or gender swampping necessarily doom a production, especially in cases were it truly does not matter helmed by one of the greatest creators of our times. You're so busy being salty you can't even enjoy the amazing bounty we couldn't have even hoped for 20 years ago.

    The Matrix Resurrections (2021)

    Think of all the time you've wasted on shitty movies and you still haven't see Bladerunner. The money behind both Sicario and Fury Road was American. And both are great movies, one made by the creator of Bladerunner 2049 which is amazing and I can't beleive you haven't seen yet. It's easy to...

    Mostly yeah, but they mostly always were. Most movies have always been garbage, the idea that the MCU worked at all is a god damn miracle.The sheer volume of shit being put out these days makes it difficult to be too overly critical. And gives voices to shit that just couldn't get support...

    Dude, you're lost. There's so much good content out now you can't even feasibly watch it all. I'm with you on the Marvel movies though, I think most of them are bad, or at least not great. But they serve a different purpose. I didn't read X-Men comics as a kid because I thought Chris Claremont...

    Valheim - Viking Survival Game (Early Access)

    I picked up Conan with some friends after we stopped playing Valheim. I love the game and it is a huge, huge improvement over Valheim in many ways. Except building. Building in Valheim is way easier, more intuitive, and gratifying. And my god the grind to build anything large scale is catass EQ...

    Invincible

    In the Three Body Problem series of books, they are looking at long term data storage (very, very long term, like a billion years) and they go through the options, then eventually settle on carving into rock on distant planets with no atmosphere to speak of and talk about how that will outlast...

    Star Trek: Picard

    since there's no DS9 thread or general ST thread Another good thing about DS9, the Ferengi. I may have gripes with how Quark is treated as a character sometimes and the Nagus is just silly, but every Ferengi episode is classic. Do not like Jake episodes or god forbid anything with Kai Winn.

    Indiana Jones 5 (2020)

    I think that's a good synopsis. Chuk is right too, Raiders and Last Crusade have unrealistic stuff in them comparable to the raft and minecart and the fridge thing, without even getting into the religious or magical stuff. It was just executed better. I know it's hip to hate on Shia Labeef, but...

    Do what Fogel said. I bought a giant pry bar for mine that helped for a couple but isn't really needed. Just dig around the roots, cut the roots out in sections (if they are big enough that they are interfering with digging), and loosen the stump bit by bit. I've heard that some people just...

    Yeah, there are a million scenes like that in action movies that are just completely implausible, it doesn't ruin the movie or anything.

    Indiana Jones 5 (2020)

    The mountain raft was definitely the worst part of the movie. But really it's just cheesy and dumb, similar to the fridge scene. Everything else in the movie is great.
