I was pretty lukewarm toward the film, but man that is one of most awesome movie soundtracks ever.

Seriously. Social apps and platforms have changed pretty often at least as long as I’ve been using it, and I started in 1990. People will go somewhere else if it’s banned.

I thought the headline said “Rob Schneider’s Spinal Tap Sequel” when I first glanced at it and thought he was trying to get in on LeBron’s action.

Totally. If memory serves it was right in the midst of the trend with all those winking adaptations of old TV shows (Beverly Hillbillies, Starsky and Hutch, etc.) that got kicked off by The Brady Bunch Movie. Most of those were dire.

And if that’s the binary, as I said originally, I’ll be out. I’d prefer not to be, but I have other things I can do with my time.

Cloud is a non sequitur here, which is why I mentioned it dismissively. I don’t want that to become the “replacement” for consoles because it’s apples and cheesesteaks. I want an option that allows me to install and play games locally but avoids all the PC/Windows bullshit I mentioned above. Cloud is not that and it…

I like things to be simple. That’s the main reason I like consoles. If I buy a game for an Xbox Series S|X or a PlayStation 5 I know it’s going to work exactly as it should. I don’t have to worry about whether I need to buy a new GPU, if my CPU is going to throttle performance, or if Windows is going to be an asshole…

My only regret is not seeing it in the theater.

That’s the thing that amazes me about it! I always say “why remake the classics, remake bad movies better.” LeBron tried it and somehow managed to make it worse.

Couldn’t agree more. Good heavens was Space Jam 2 terrible. It was even worse than those kinds of reboots usually are because instead of being a soulless nostalgia cash grab, it was a soulless vanity project.

Eh, we did the wedding party introductions to the Imperial March at our wedding because we thought it was funny. I was 29 and my wife was 30 when we got married.

Episode 3: Lucy blithely stands at a vendor while other Wastelanders wait behind her and get increasingly irritated by how long she’s taking.

You should check out the various fan-produced audio dramas. One of them is going to be featured on fallout dot com later today, in fact.

200 years out from when the bombs fell, yes, but only 9 years after Fallout 4 and 15 years after New Vegas.

Fallout is one of those franchises, I think, where you can stay totally true to lore/canon and still make a highly compelling and entertaining movie or TV show that has broad appeal. They’ve stated that that’s exactly what they’re trying to do, and although we won’t know whether they nailed it for sure until April…

Hell yes!

I love Scheer but I’d prefer Mantzoukas as a long-lost magical relative.

They did a good job with the original Young Ducky (a show, by the way, that I’d watch), so hopefully they’ll pick someone at least as good in the appropriate age range for this show.

I live in the South but all of my American ancestors are from the Northeast. My great-great grandfather fought for the Union and even escaped from a Confederate POW camp in Alabama near the end of the war.
