Movie was shite. Stupid dialogue, stupid writing, and worst of all, stupid entire premise from the get-go. At this point, I'm not even angry. When I consider the disfigured mess this new trilogy was, I feel a deep sense of sadness. A new Star Wars trilogy. Not just a game or a TV show, but a...

I'm about 100 hours into Kingdom Come: Deliverance Pretty neato game. It's whole schtick is being somewhat realistic (eg 'medieval without fantasy'), and not giving you anything for free. It's quite unforgiving ('like reality') and you have to straight work for proficiency/success. As a result...

Physical and Streaming here. I held out against Streaming till ~2015, where Spotify had a crazy deal. I decided to try it, and after that point I just couldn't go back. The value proposition of Spotify is just too high. It's the Steam of music distribution. The service is just too good...

To be fair, the old EU was guilty of this tenfold, what with starfleet-destroying Palpatine and black-hole-manipulating Luke, etc The issue here though I suppose is that they scrapped the old EU ostensibly to avoid missteps like this. If they're just going to do it again, why throw away all that...

Some nitpicks: The animations seem a bit too 'game'-y for my liking Lack of dismemberment is annoying NPC script/event triggering seem slow. Reminds of old games lol. But it's not excusable for modern games imo I always want proper power paradigms in SW media. Something logical...

It's an artefact of some significance in context of the current pop-culture era. Also, I'm sure one can infer, but, being familiar with it will enable proper understanding of relevant references from people and other artefacts.

I think I will, if for nothing but the investment I had in the series throughout the years I watched it: I would actually advise the opposite, personally. I'd say do watch it, specifically because it's got immense cultural significance, and, the first 6 seasons are absolute top-notch, even...

Gamers have always had tendency to call for a movie to be made of any game they find remotely enjoyable, and I have always found that incredibly stupid. Games are an entirely mechanically different media, and narrative construction for it does not translate well to the screen, at all. This...

News has broken about a KotOR movie, possibly a trilogy, in the works. I am not happy about this -- not one bit. Read below for why.

mfw finale

I think the whole thing was perfectly in-character. Gendry was one of her few friends when she was younger, and not an unattractive lad too. As far as she's concerned, there was a very high chance that they were all going to die the next day, so to hell with it - might as well give it a go. And...

I actually disagree -- I thought Jaime's arc was quite fine. It was not about him changing, it was about him coming to terms and accepting the disparate parts of himself - the honor-focussed one and also the supremely selfish and immoral one. Completely agree; see below Agree Are you saying...

I had an iced coffee today; was dope Iced coffee can really really vary in quality; just fyi. May pay to ask people where the best is served if one wants to try it out without getting put off forever, lol

I haven't read the criticisms, but the more I think of it, the more absurdities come to my mind. Such as, I suspect this is a The Last Jedi situation where it sort of seems fine at first glance, but absolutely falls to pieces the moment you spend more than 2 minutes thinking about the plot. I...
