I’m kinda split on that. It did open a lot of things but Ren was never portrayed as someone who was stable. He was outright insane so I couldn’t even see how they’d go for unification using him. I had thought that TLJ was hinting that Rey could use the Dark Side without going nuts/evil given that whole scene with the…

3D hangs around for 10 years or so then vanishes for another 10 before returning. It’ll be back.

Odds are Ritchie’s film would be the one with at least one memorable monologue and characters with more than a single defining trait.

Millar’s work always needs someone willing to filter out the 90's edgelord tendencies when adapting it. I always feel like Millar’s work runs on red bull, cocaine, and the word extreme spelled as ‘Exxxtreme’.

Saving the X-men series isn’t really a high bar though. I mean, there is a lot of stupid in First Class. A whole lot of stupid (seriously, did they forget what Darwin’s power was?). It also starts the ‘You’re only watching this to see what Magneto will do’ era of X-men films.

I mean... there wasn’t any way it wasn’t going to be a typical trilogy though. TLJ was like someone at planning took a ‘story’ movie and made it a ‘main’ movie by mistake before doing a quick rewrite to include all the force-related content. If you cut every Rey/Kylo/Luke/Snoke scene from the film (except Rey showing…

The biggest issue I have with TLJ was that it didn’t actually seem to want to be a mainline film. It seemed more focused on subverting the franchise tropes only to circle back to them in the last 20 minutes so that there could actually be a followup. Meanwhile, Rey, Finn, and Poe are portrayed as screw-ups who…

I think part of Palpatine’s backstory involved killing his family prior to the Disney purchase.

To be fair, anyone who assumes Kylo knew what he was talking about needs to rethink things anyway. The guy was shown to be crazy multiple times before the rant and tripled-down on the crazy right after. He was a half-trained nutcase that only even got to give that rant because the script had Rey surrender herself to…

I don’t think anyone in the cast was the problem. The directors and scriptwriters though.... No one was on the same page. As much as people like TLJ, it seemed inclined to do its own thing rather than be the midpoint of a trilogy. RoS was two movies shoved into one and directed by a guy who is only good at starting…

I honestly thought the solution would be to make an official ‘stock’ database for AI to use that is made entirely out of art/music/voices/whatever that people are paid to contribute to. Meanwhile set up a standard for celebrities to license their images/voices/whatever for use so that they can approve/deny projects as…

One got shot in the foot, the other did some seriously sketchy stuff as a stripper and is quick to throw down. Both still seem like better people to be friends with. I think Remy Ma might be the only one (in terms of the sorta-mainstream crew) with a worse reputation and that is mainly because she gets herself locked…

Still preferable to the massive decrease from Mortal Kombat 11 to Mortal Kombat 1 though.

M.I.A.’s music always sounded unique. The entire production of her songs was just... fresh compared to how most of the music put out by female hip-hope/pop artists.

Out of all the GotG, Star Lord is the blandest of the bunch and never seemed to develop as a character. His arc in every film is just him running into danger where the only reason he’ll survive is because the actions of his allies usually ends up saving him at the last second. Plus he’s the one that ruined the plan to…

For some reason, I still feel like Soul Calibur 3 was the peak of Bandai/Namco’s Character Customization in their main fighting game franchises. 

Given how nuts she was in FF7: Remake, I’d definitely give her a vote for inclusion on some kind of poll. Tifa was the boss breaker that carried me through Hard mode and the ‘hidden’ boss fights.

Honestly, Hela could’ve survived just by taking a portal or something. She was introduced taking a portal to where Odin died from wherever she was sealed away. Just toss in that New Asgard counts as a power source for her since she’s got a conceptual thing going with her domain.

I mean... he’s still better than Star Lord I guess? 

Plus Stewart’s run ended right as the world transitioned from ‘things are going downhill but it can be fixed’ to ‘everything’s on fire now but half of us don’t think fire is real’. Noah’s run ended right as the world decided fire is real but nostalgia, regression, were more important than solving anything.
