I’m still not totally convinced. The trailer focusing on the more lurid aspects (AND WE DO MEAN GRAPHIC!) makes me a bit worried this is gonna be all flash and no bang, y’know?

After GotG struck big, I’m absolutely astounded this hasn’t happened yet.

I was significantly later in the business than you. Just under five years, 07-12. I honestly can’t remember what the first thing I laced up was. It was late 07, I remember Beowulf being out at the time. Definitely nothing quite so iconic as Superman the Movie!

Really depends what you want to get from it. The combat is fun but PvP is largely dominated by ultra optimised tryhards like Harry Potter who just barely avoid being classified as full on griefers. Haulage is tedious as hell but by far the most profitable activity. Exploration can be an awe inspiring way to play the…

I was a cinema projectionist back in the 35mm era. Which seems a ridiculous thing to say when that era only ended five years ago. But it was the best job I ever had, for the most part.

Water memory! I always loved that one. So it remembers that it had medicine in it, but it conveniently manages to forget all the shit, piss and assorted animal corpses that have been through it at some point? Water really is amazing stuff, huh?

My Warlock went FWC for the guns. My Titan went NM so I can cosplay as Iron Man.

I absolutely adore Hertzfeldt’s work, but I still haven’t quite forgiven him for emotionally annihilating me with It’s Such A Beautiful Day. At least this doesn’t sound like it’ll leave me in tears for half an hour.

Brachydios was in 4U and Gen, Lagiacrus was also in Gen. I’ve got no idea what their plans for the games going forward are, since this seems like a big turning point for the series, but I’d be surprised if we didn’t at least see Brachydios.

Wait, Marvel ISN’T running a director driven studio? Employing people like Kenneth Branagh, Shane Black, James Gunn, Ryan Coogler and Taika Waititi isn’t an attempt to bring in a wide range of directorial styles? Or that these directors aren’t being given the freedom to make the movies they want to make with those…

Peter Dinklage wasn’t in In Bruges. That was Jordan Prentice. A considerably less well known actor, but weirdly enough he was one of the people inside the costume in Howard the Duck.

In fairness, I have seen a LOT of people ranting about Scorched Earth on here in the last year.

Ha! I forgot I even wrote this! Bloody hell, how glad am I that I was wrong?

I like it SP (Xbox player) because I’m a PvE player primarily and trying to load into a PvE server mostly seems to involve flipping between dozens of servers that players have already covered in wooden posts so you can’t build anywhere.

That was... Pretty decent. Nice direction, good performances. Script probably needs to get over itself a bit. I suppose it’s trying to convey that young Baxter is a bit of a try hard, but the narration is... Eh. Pretty conceptually interesting, though. Urban fantasy by way of South Africa is a very cool idea.

OK, the only other time Dany is shown to be immune to fire, is when she explicitly performs blood magic. We know blood magic is real and powerful. We also know the blood of kings has power, and since Melisandre considered Mance Rayder King enough to count, that has nothing to do with nobility.

Wight dragons might be highly susceptible to live dragonfire, but since we’ve established the Walkers have magic spears that can instakill a live dragon, it’s potentially going to be way too big a risk to field them in that fight. Against Wights, they’re the best possible weapon, but they’re not remotely safe vs White…

You are taking symbolism and metaphor WAY too literally. Targaryens are dragons in the same way Starks are wolves and Lannisters are lions. That statement from Dany regarding Viserys is simply her finally stepping out from his abusive behaviour towards her. She’s saying he’s unworthy.

It’s all still pretty vague because we have no first hand accounts of exactly what Rheagar knew, or how he knew it. For all we know, Bran eventually goes back and gives him a detailed list of instructions and he just followed them.

Well, we still don’t know exactly what information Rheagar had, and how he acquired it. If it was just stuff he had read in books, he might have had flawed or incorrect information. If he had seen events through some sort of vision, then presumably he’d just have done whatever he believed he needed to to make that…
