Elon is taking shots at Disney like crazy. Didn't read the entire thread so sorry if it was already mentioned. He put an open call for people wanting to sue Disney. The other night he was at a money premiere with Nelson Peltz (huge Disney stock owner who wants a seat on the board and thinks Iger is fucking up Disney big time) Elon said he was just hanging with friends discussing companies to buy. 

Hei Hei better return!

Can still remember seeing an early screening of the original on the beach at the Polynesian hotel.

Would have thought they'd do Part II first, but I'll take this too. 

what are you talking about? They already did part 2.

Anyway Grendizer was my favorite of the Force Five giant Robot cartoon. Him and Gaiking. Really need to find high quality DVDS of those cartoons. 

 

 

 

Gaiking was my favorite, then Grendizer, and then Starvengers.

Book five of the Stillhouse Lake series, Heartbreak Bay started. And I’m finally continuing the the Dark Tower series with Drawing of the Three. I hope it gets better after the first book, that was a drag. 

Drawing of the Three is one of my favorite books 

was a big fan of the show as a kid

was bummed when I saw the news the other day, what a loss

Sure is, but now he only wrestles like 5-6 times per year and is on basically a Brock Lesnar schedule

You're sort of getting that with the John Wick spin-off film Ballerina,

yes and no. As Wick spin off we'll see brutality we wouldn't see in a Bond film 

I remember loving Rallisport on xbox, the rumble on that game was insane, I think it blew out one of my controllers 

I'd take an entire movie of Ana De Armas's character  

been forever since I watched, Is jackass Roman still the champ?

Didn't realize he was 73! 

forgot to report back that I finally finished the series a couple of days ago and thought ...hmmm this series was pretty much pointless  

yes, but I know it's old age

loved the movie, will definitely check out the series

What would your ranking of MCU TV shows be (and rating for each)?

I'd have to give it some thought, and I will but need to finish Echo first. Of course its been a while since I watched some of them so not sure how accurate my memories of them will be.

Odd little tidbit in relation to Marvel shows (the Netflix ones), I really enjoyed the 1st season of Iron Fist. Not saying it was great and can;'t quite put my finger on it but just something about it I enjoyed. That's another character I'd like to see get a second chance. I actually liked all the actors they picked for the Netflix shows, some better than others but they all worked for me especially Colter as Cage.

10 mins into episode 3, this is better than the entire DCU

to be fair that's not a very high bar

I agree with you about the comics version having some insane stuff but this was an origin story and made on a low budget - I went into the show knowing the action would be primarily minimal and it was. It was pretty solid when it was there though. I suppose my expectations were just lower on that front - none of the action in any of the MCU TV shows have been good or memorable. The opening fight scene from The Continental blows everything MCU TV out of the water. Hell, Daredevil and Punisher action scenes in the old Netflix MCU shows were wayyyy better. MCU TV just isn't there with action in general, Moon Knight included.

I tried to temper my expectation, especially given the other shows so far, but I was just so thrilled to see MK actually brought to life I couldn't help but want more. It better get a second season.

Given the character and how insane the fights/violence can be in that comic I just thought it was crappy for us not to really get to see him in action. He's definitely one heck of a complex character and hope like hell we'll be seeing more of him the future.

Watching paint dry is more fun than Secret Invasion was 

tried out the demo and it plays pretty well. As for paying full price. It's a damn Ubisoft game so wait two and half weeks and it'll be available for 20

-Moon Knight: 7.5/10 (now that more shows are out, this looks better and better)

 

I am a huge Moon Knight fan and I think you're being generous here. There was plenty to enjoy but having almost all the fights, including the climax if I recall being 'blackouts' (no doubt with Jake likely being in control) felt damn cheap. There are definitely time where inferred events can heighten tension or enhance a story but that's usually in horror. You don't cut out action scenes and simply imply there was action in a show like Moon Knight. Yes the first one or two tines was fine as the Grant persona had no clue what was happening, but not almost every major action sequence.

I'll have give thought to the other shows, though I liked Hawkeye quite a bit. As for Echo, started watching the second epsiode and again the CC keeps crapping out. It's the only damn show that seems to be doing it!
