  1. Didn’t love it. Dude waited a whole year to go after Will Smith? Not that it wasn’t deserved but I dunno, if you’re going to wait a full year at least come up with something more nuanced and clever. All that just sounded like an angry social media post he coulda put out the next day.
  2. Wow, compete and utter wow. The show has been so excellent so far but in the back of my head I was always wondering if they’d really be able to pull off winter. After that part of the game is when I had to take a break for a week or so. It was so emotionally draining and depressing. The scene in the restaurant will always be one of my top most memorable video game moments. I didn’t know a video game could make me feel that way. So for them to have completely nailed the whole damn thing and some how also made it better is incredible. The violence line, the baby girl line. Perfect. I have no doubt that they will stick the landing and that the ending will land as hard if not harder than it did in the game.
  3. This! That FOMO out that @skillzdadirecta talked about is really hard to overcome. It’s taken me personally a long time to get to a place where I don’t feel guilty about not buying every AAA game that comes out. Wasted a lot of money on Bethesda games before I finally admitted to myself that I just don’t love their games and there’s nothing wrong with that. Plenty of other games to be spending time not having fun. Now we’re just working on not feeling guilty about not finishing games haha.
  4. Souls games(the real ones from From) don’t really require extra skill though. They’re not like fighters or shooters where diminishing twitch reflexes have an effect on your ability to compete. Souls games are way more about patience and a willingness to learn patterns than actual skill. People beat these games with dance pads lol.
  5. It’s crazy how many times they keep introducing new combat mechanics. Each I got to a point where I thought “huh, this is the combat? I’m gonna get bored soon” boom, new mechanic that completely changes it. I didn’t finish it because I’m also at a point in my life where I struggle to finish 20 hour games let alone 120 hours games but I genuinely enjoyed my time with it despite not finishing it. It’s a great game.
  6. Or just find a recap on YouTube that takes 5 minutes? Or read the Wiki real quick? It’s not that big a deal.
  7. Good, it’s not good for them. Next pass a bill banning idiots from jogging with their dogs. Also not good for the dog.
  8. She’s pretty shitty for the things she said. But this particular thing I don’t really see the issue. She’s not wrong about legacies and why people care about them. Granted I didn’t read that article I’m just going off the short quotes from it.
  9. Yep I have the same issues with red screens from my LG(around the same time as yours). Initially they replaced the panel for free even though it was 6 months out of warranty. Happened again with the replacement and now I just live with it and I’ll get a new TV in a year or so. Seemed like it was a fairly common issue with those screens back then but not an issue anymore
  10. Oh I forgot to mention. Just to add to the surreal feeling of the night. There were no trailers, not even the normal Regal “welcome to the show” thing they run. Lights go down and here we go. Then the movie is only like 75 minutes. Followed by about 5 minutes of credits because like 12 people made the movie 😂
  11. Soooooo I went to to see this tonight. My buddy and I bought tickets a month ago 😂 We were convinced we’d be the only ones in the theater. But to my absolute delight, the show(only 1 showing) was SOLD OUT. Packed theater and a such an amazing time. This is about as B movie slasher as it can get. But the plot works, there’s actual logic for why they are the way they are lol. Tons of gore but campy enough it doesn’t gross you out, great creative kills, every horror trope box gets checked. Truly a great time at the movies. I think this is only in theaters till the 23rd and I’d highly recommend going, cause why the fuck not 😂
  12. I stood in front of the living painting that plays the string instrument just listening for like 5 minutes yesterday. Yeah I’m gonna be playing this for awhile
  13. I have a LG B9 that’s a few years old and I have the balanced option so I’d assume you’ll have it as well
  14. I didn’t really care about the Bat Girl movie but after hearing him talk about it on Stern, now I REALLY want to see it.
  15. Very interested to hear your impressions. I’ve been teetering on getting one for a couple months now. I don’t have any kind of ability to play PC games(just have a work laptop) so that alone feels worth it.
  16. That absolutely exists but that’s not at all the reason for the hype. It’s 100% the fans of arguably the biggest IP out there right now. The developers knew exactly what they were doing in the marketing, it wasn’t until very recently they got into combat or even the dam story. The bulk of the early marketing all centered around “Look you can actually walk around Hogwarts! We have all the common rooms!” THAT is where the hype is coming from for the legion of Harry Potter fans. Hell I don’t even care about Harry Porter that much but even I think it’ll be cool to walk about that school/world haha
  17. Another very solid episode. Coming off of what is arguably one of the best episodes of television ever, it was naturally going to come down a bit. After a bit of a breather this week looks like next week is gonna go nuts again.
  18. To be fair I didn’t read the article. So just based on the quoted statement alone. When was there a shift in the thinking that the mega pharmaceutical companies aren’t evil as fuck? They 1000% are. Now if he’s also actually an anti-vaxxer than he’s an idiot. But he’s not more of an idiot than Phizer is evil so 🤷🏻‍♂️ And lol at asking James Gunn to comment on other people’s tweets.
  19. Just watched it. Absolutely fucking loved it. The whole scene with the boyfriend in the kitchen was brilliant and then the description of his course 😂😂😂 that might be my favorite scene out of any movie I’ve seen in the last year.
