AGREED.

We are still very much at the nascent stage of AI, and the notion of AI being able produce anything other than what is put into it is at best financially foolish and at worst, reminds one of the joke of a thousand chimps at typewriters eventually composing a Shakespeare play. The hubris is unsurprising, but…

Now how can you insult Jonathan Livingston Seagull that way? He’s been doing his best for years going fatly around corners for our entertainment. It seems that the least we could do is be grateful for his stellar contributions to modern cinema!

GR means Greater Rift. These are basically levels where you can field test your gear to see how high of a level you clear before the baddies best you. They can be a BLAST with groups because if you were a noob like me, your clan would do a bunch and all you’d have to do is try not to die and you’d get most of the loot…

For me, Pixar started losing their unique spark about twenty years ago. It would be a toss-up between Monsters, Inc or Finding Nemo as their last truly great film, but I would probably choose Monsters, Inc because despite the fact that I’m not a father nor will I ever be one, hearing “Kitty!” in the very last scene…

Yeah, it looked great!  SO many memories of Ball runs, Tristram runs, CE’ing my way every-freakin-where with my Necro.  Good times.

I don’t remember the difficulty level I started on with D3, but I’m pretty sure it wasn’t the lowest. Regardless, even with no knowledge of the game, I felt like I just waltzed through the entire thing.

You can take your selective soapbox and pound it up your ass.

I stopped playing D3 right before the recent sexual assault allegations came out because it was my second time trying the game, and unfortunately, I came away with the same appraisal. The story was terrible, and I blew threw the entire game in less than a week. That left nothing but eons of endless grinding for…

That part has certainly not aged well, but for me, it’s not as bad as the abundant and appalling racism in ToD. Additionally, when Indy and Marion meet again at her bar, she gives him a big rasher of shit for his behavior, and I feel like that scene in her bar is meant to show that while Indy has a heroic side which…

It’s been a while since I’ve seen it, but I doubt that I would rate it much higher than KotCS because it’s got too many things that I cannot tolerate: a shrieking , useless harpy of a stereotype, a plucky little sidekick who’s just too cute and whose presence is solely to appeal to the children in the audience, and a…

If you haven’t read it, Dark Horse comics did a four issue mini-series in the early Nineties called “The Thing: Climate of Fear” which was pretty good. It answers the big question, but takes the story in a fun direction.

Agreed. I don’t care about the Snyder cut of “Justice League”, but I’d LOVE to see the original version of the Thing prequel. That director got gang-banged by the studio a la Indiana Jones in that South Park episode.

It wouldn’t be be possible now, but after I read the Dark Horse mini-series “The Thing: Climate of Fear”, I though it was a good story and at least provide a concept for how to start the next film.

Ah, okay!  That certainly sounds better.  I hope fans can enjoy the film as I don’t personally care for the animation style, but I’m glad to know that the writing is sensitive.

Oh, I remember!  I didn’t want to dig into all the things that don’t make sense in that series because it would take about as long as the series did just to write it all out!

Is that revealed in the trailer? If it is, I missed it. I’m not well-versed in TMNT lore, so if that character is black, that’s fine, but it wasn’t at all clear to me from the trailer.

While I can appreciate the incredible dedication and skill involved in staging and shooting the eye-popping stunts in this franchise, I’ve struggled to enjoy the films beyond the action. I LOVED the original film, and what has lost me in most of the sequels is that the plots feel so needlessly nebulous and/or complicat…

I gotta agree with Duffin on this one. The art style is terrible. It looks like they tried to kitbash graffiti over stop-motion, which isn’t a bad concept, but the execution makes the action feel a bizarre hybrid of freeze frames and stop-motion.

*The inability to edit posts after 15 minutes is a real PITA sometimes. So, my only recourse is to reply to my own post with corrections.

Despite the abundant talent involved, I was only mildly curious this film when I first heard about it, but now I’m really looking forward to it. It looks insanely faithful to the…
