The only thing I hated more than Star Trek: Into Darkness, was Star Trek: Beyond.

Yes, they knew you were expecting the shark to attack the helicopter, so they set it up... and then refused to pay it off. They were toying with you. Through the whole movie.
For me it’s the weird aspect ratio... too tall and skinny. Side by side, I went with the LG V30 instead of the Galaxy S9. Looked better, felt better, had better proportions.
Nope. Notches are a terrible thing. A ‘solution’ in search of a problem. Ugly. Unnecessary. A pain to deal with as a user/consumer and as a developer. And I’m sure as a hardware/screen manufacturer. I will be glad when this stupid ‘notch’ fad is over. I will never buy a phone with a notch. And the day all phones have…
I. Will. Never. Buy. A. Phone. With. A. “Notch”.
I’ll also likely never buy a Pixel phone just because they’re all so ugly.
The show is anything but boring and slow. It’s very entertaining, and it’s among my favorite Marvel TV Series. It’s constantly surprising me with how good it is. Everything that happens feels EARNED. Especially the emotional and relationship beats. Compare and contrast with the utterly crap way the CW super-hero shows…
FC2 was very good (but had many annoying bits). FC3 was a great refinement (but still had annoying bits and the boss fights were kinda stupid). FC4 was pretty awesome. Primal was amazing considering there were no guns, and is easily my favorite of the series. FC5 started out fine, I liked about the first 3rd, then it…
It’s an amazing over-sight if they don’t connect to that at all...
I’m upset that Wes Chatham isn’t recognized for his role of Amos Burton in The Expanse. He’s absolutely amazing in it.
I feel like the only one that thinks the original was significantly better than the sequel. I found the sequel to be exceedingly predictable and thus kind of dull. The best scene by far was the baby/racoon fight, but most of the rest was kind of un-inspired, IMHO. I mean, it was okay, but it won’t make my top five…
Didn’t they already de-fatten Shatners butt in one of the Star Trek movies, and haven’t they routinely de-bald-spotted actors as well? I’m not sure “vanity cosmetic CGI” is anything new at all.
Almost everything was rushed. They packed all of book 3 into half a dozen episodes. The entire battle for the Behemoth was highly condensed, and the entire line about going back to the station to turn off the security measures and the speed-limit so they could release their ships and get back home was just completely…
The series is a trilogy of trilogies. We’ve just completed the first trilogy in the TV show. You should feel free to read the first three books. The series is augmented by half a dozen novellas... one of which made it into season one (“The Butcher of Anderson Station”), and another which has been obliquely referenced…
The actor is just brilliant, bringing to life and giving flesh to a deeply complex and nuanced character unlike any character we’ve ever seen before. He can say more with a glance or a gesture or a subtle change in posture than most actors can with an entire page of dialog. Amos is the best character on TV, and I hope…
So I have to admit to being a little irked at how much of Book 3 they cut out. Mashing together the “turn off the reactors” with the station security being turned off and opening the gates and removing teh speed limit was … nonsensical. In the book, it was a whole separate thing where Miller and Holden went back to…
Exactly this... the central station “reaches out” and stops the ships. It then applies an inertial damper to prevent anything from accelerating beyond a chosen speed by tweaking the physics of ring-space. As Bobbie said, it’s a purely defensive measure. It’s trying to avoid threats. It’s not really fully conscious of…
The ring in Sol system is the only operational ring. In the past, there were thousands of systems with active rings all linked to the transit hub with the station at the center. But then something happened. Bad. Something attacked. Whole systems went dark. THe station even tried to kill the ‘bad’ by blowing up stars.…
My understanding is that there are two more books, and then the series is done.
If it’s not available on Xbox, it pretty much doesn’t exist to me. Sad.
