Which speaks to why it was such a good game. Despite being a mediocre port (I played the 360 version), mechanically complex, and story dense it was still eminently playable for noobs to the genre. Old school Bioware was a glorious company, shame what happened to them...

“And if that doesn’t work, they’re suggesting “restarting the game client” or “uninstalling and reinstalling the game”.”

It seems like the music/background sounds are super load, while the dialogue is muted and the actors mumble. I’ve always had a bit of trouble hearing a conversation when there’s a lot of background noise (noisy restaurants and bars), or even when my cousins would whisper to me.

He’s not wrong - I can sit in one theater, watching a movie, and hear the explosion of another movie playing next door. It’s a bit disconcerting.

Whenever this subject comes up, I will always post this succinct breakdown of the problem with Luke’s arc, which was posted on this very site by another user when TLJ came out.

The issues I take is of redefining the heroes journey to lead Luke to where he was. But I blame that on Rian Johnson’s hero deconstruction bent. The Luke at the end of Return of the Jedi was not the kind of Luke that could toss one of his father’s lightsabers over his shoulder like a piece of junk. They didn’t *earn*…

This really wasn't a funny story. I don't know why it was treated like it was.

I lost it here. Picard has always been friendly with Riker and Riker has always been loyal to Picard (alternate universes notwithstanding) but I always felt that friendship that characterized Kirk, McCoy and Spock and would have been natural in the cerebral Picard and the more raw Riker would come through in TNG and…

He does have extensive sword-fighting experience though. All those episodes with him fencing.

Truth. It’s fun to see old people maintaining healthy and stable relationships with their peers even after countless crises.

Riker has a beard.

It appears they’ve done it — nostalgia finally done right! I’m tired of seeing my heroes turn into selfish shells of their former selves. From Kirk’s complacency in the Nexus, to Han’s abandonment of Leia, and especially Luke’s blue-milk fueled island self-imprisonment — the torchbearers of sci-fi legacies seem to…

I may have shed a tear when the Rikers appeared on screen.

I mean, Jimmy Buffett realized probably 20 years before anyone else that there was such a thing as a lifestyle artist and said lifestyle should revolve around Caribbean vacations. Like Ibiza for boomers.

It would also dilute his message. He knew about Paltrow and the message was “if you go after her again, I’ll kill you”. Expanding that to other women (unknown to Pitt and Paltrow, as in they didn’t even know there WERE others) just gives Weinstein an opening to muddy things.

To defend Pitt a bit, in that moment it probably didn’t occur to him that there were other women who had gone through abuse similar to Paltrow from that POS.  

So Brad did a thing, and still needs to have that touch of snark, that too bad he didn’t do more?

Honestly Interstellar would have been a much better movie if Matthew McConneghey’s character became a Star Saphire and was given their requisite skimpy outfit.

Did someone tell NBC they were part of Hulu already or is that basically Disney’s thing now? In any case, CBS All Access is essentially crap that forces me to obtain Star Trek by Alternate Means; I expect Peacock will be the same.
