  1. Yeah, I'll bet this trailer is focusing on the straightforward action/revenge movie stuff because that's easy to sell. I don't know if this means anything, but his co-writer on this also has a credit on Lamb, so between that and Eggers' own track record, I'm guessing the movie will be... different.
  2. CODA- I’m a sucker for coming of age movies. This one hits a lot of familiar notes (ha), but is well made and worth watching. I don’t know if it would hit a lot of people like this, but there were tears. Happy tears.
  3. I’ve been actively avoiding all trailers and casting news/rumors because I don’t want to know anything, but I want to know what y’all think of it, so I’m jumping into page 5 of this thread.
  4. Theaters are saved! Now more than ever, we just need to churn out nostalgia-laden entries in the most successful series of all time!
  5. Who wants to organize the D1P GOTY list? Surely we, a small band of real, “core” gamers can put together a list that will make everyone happy.
  6. That just seems like a fancy way of saying “we’ll use your likeness for an NPC”. I get that NFTs are dumb and so are the people who spend money on them, but people spend dumb money on shit in games all the time. How is this different, other than using an easily hate-able buzzword?
  7. I got you. He’s getting up there in age, and any movie could be his last. I was just saying that we don’t even have to consider it about WSS.
  8. True, it would be a good note to end on, but he’s already got another movie on track for next year, the semi-autobiographical The Fabelmans. Just imagine making a movie about your childhood and getting Michelle Williams and Paul Dano to play your parents. King shit.
  9. It would be hilarious if the posters shipped torn in half. Or they were printed on special paper made to deteriorate within a year.
  10. Ah yes, the one issue where we all pretend like Time magazine is relevant.
  11. I tried to go back to multiplayer and was lost. My right bumper wasn’t doing anything. No hook! How can I ever play Halo again without constant hook access?
  12. There was quite a bit of Spanish, and nothing is subtitled. My high school Spanish is extremely rusty (and was never good to begin with), but most of it you can follow easily enough through context clues. There might be some jokes and smaller things in there that I missed, but you'll never lose the plot.
  13. I saw this without ever seeing the original. It was an interesting experience. It's really good, and you could probably trace back anything I didn't like about it to the source material. Like for some reason, I just can't deal with these fucking gang members doing synchronized balletic leaps through the street on their way to do some hate crimes. I know there's a general suspension of disbelief involved in musical theater, but I couldn't get on board for some of that. There are great performances, and it looks incredible. Even as I was having a hard time digesting some of the material, I was transfixed.
  14. Hard for me to say, since I dug it from the beginning. Maybe try one more. If you're not invested by that point you're probably safe to drop it. Like you said earlier - there's a lot good shows out there. No need to power through something you're not enjoying.
  15. If there’s a market for ridiculous Americans over there, sign me up!
