Yes. This is correct. He’s just a local ADA who happens to have prosecuted some cases that involved mutants. He looks at Sentinel Services the way a local prosecutor would look at some special FBI task force or Homeland Security or something. They’re “way above his pay grade” as they say.

I’m pretty sure that Reed’s job is not working for Sentinel Services, but occasionally with them. He mentions they are a Federal agency, I got the impression that Reed is a local Atlanta prosecutor (he points out that contacting the District Attorney won’t do any good, this situation is way outside his jurisdiction to…

this, plus its also basically the propaganda arm of the gun manufacturers, who couldnt give a shit what happens as long as they can sell, sell, sell!

We just had an episode prior to ABC’s of Beth where we were repeatedly shown how easy it is for Rick to manipulate the memories of his family why would he allow a clone Beth to have any memory of what happened in ABC’s of Beth?

I was going to say that the Nazis never would have gotten their hands on the Ark in the first place without him, which means they never would have had their faces melted off. But then I remembered that the Nazis were only digging in the wrong place because Indy had stopped them from taking Marion’s amulet in the first…

I’ve personally never like nor even understood the “Deckard is a replicant” plot. To me, the entire point of the story is the dramatic irony that the replicants desperately cling to life and crave to be real humans whereas the genuine human (Deckard) is bored, detached and indifferent to life. The entire climax is…

Why is is the idea that Deckard is a replicant even an interesting idea? The whole point of Roy saving him on the roof was that Roy had shown himself to be more humane than humans, willing to save a human whom he had every right to hate. If Deckard is a replicant, it’s just about a replicant helping another replicant…

No, I’m pretty sure that at the end of the theatrical release, Deckard’s voiceover notes that she isn’t subject to the four-year lifespan. He says something like, “We don’t know how long she’ll live, but who does?”

I laughed at the line in the trailer where Deckard is like “I had your job once. I was good at it” because, good god, dude, no you weren’t. You were absolutely terrible at blade running. The only blade you managed to run was that one poor stripper you murdered in cold blood who wasn’t hurting anybody. The rest of the…

I’ve always been of the opinion that if he didn’t know he was a replicant, he had essentially self-imposed restrictions on what he thought he could or couldn’t do physically.

I have yet to play the 2nd one, but I remember the first Dishonored had a “good” option to kidnap a woman and hand her over to her stalker rather than just killing her. That hardly seems preferable.

Bad idea, they’re totally going to be “those space-smuggler guys” now.

Seems to me like your biases against Katie overrode your reading comprehension. Katie said she was fine with the film being shown, but recognized that other women apparently weren’t in the right headspace to enjoy it given the climate. I fail to see what’s incoherent or misandrist about that.

“He did look like he would taste good with melted butter, though.”

“Back then, we called Donkey Kong ‘Professor Bananas,’ and he didn’t throw barrels, he threw disobedient Irishmen! Most of the videy games cost one horsepenny and were eight seconds long! All of them were about a man trying to marry a potato, which was the style at the time.”

Except it doesn’t. I’ve watched Star Trek since I was six - I’ve watched every movie, every series, repeatedly. Except Nemesis, because Jesus, it’s Nemesis. The Orville is a throwback to optimistic days, the lighting, the music - hell, Brannon Braga’s an executive producer and it shows. It looks like TOS and TNG had a…

It seems to me that they’re also betting against Trekkies being tech-savvy enough to pirate the show, rather than shelling out monies for a streaming service that offers them little else of interest.

Yeah, I tried that move on my brother once—he ended up kicking my ass.

Yeah, every Trek fan worth his salt knows that the Kirk double chop is the most dangerous move in his arsenal.

Because Kinja is terrible
