My immediate thought after last episodes cliffhanger was… So what? Do we care? And sure enough, we don’t.
I wonder if this, combined with the helplessness the hive seems to have regarding food, is meant to highlight just how much the hive isn’t what Carol wants it to be.
Carol wants the hive to be an enemy. Ah ha! They’re eating people! That’s evil enemy behavior! But… it’s really not a big deal.
I do my best to avoid putting toilet data on my hand.
Surprised they are spinning off instead of doing sonic 4 with the girl sonic like is teased at the end.
Don’t worry.
The upcoming “Sonic” entry, based on the Sega video game franchise, is separate from “Sonic the Hedgehog 4,” which is slated for March 19, 2027.
They are. Gotta spinoff fast. :)
I don’t know that I agree. AI will continue to grow stronger and heartier, just like Campbell’s new Extra Chunky™ All Americanado™ Chicken Noodle Soup.
Absolutely.
I’ve seen the Broadway show and when they announced they were splitting the film into two I thought it was a huge mistake. It just seemed so unnecessary. After watching the first film I admit I was completely wrong.
The first film covered the first half perfectly. Excellent story and excellent music. I walked out thinking… Oh shit… What the hell is the second film going to look like?
When you watch the Broadway show you kinda forgive the weaker second half. You judge the whole thing together and it comes out ahead. But if you have to focus on just the second half. If you have to stretch it out to match the runtime of the first… The cracks are going to be obvious and the weaknesses highlighted.
It’s the weaker film, but it’s a fun conclusion.
“Reunion episodes” have been a thing for years. Wikipedia even has a whole list of them.
Originally most of them were just getting the cast back together to talk about the show. The TV show Friends did a version of this a few years ago.
We also got the film or TV movie that revisited the cast and story, usually a few years after the show ended. The TV show Psych did a handful of these.
And of course more recently, as you noted, we’ve started to get the new seasons version. King of the Hill would be a good recent example of this format.
It’s fun to revisit the worlds these shows created. Some suck. Some are great. Some are just sorta in the middle.
This whole thread is just ignoring Clone Wars, Rebels & Bad Batch. (And the “Tales of” series.)
To add, give me some way of tracking these collectables.
If I’ve collected all of the trinkets in a given area, mark that area in some way. If there are 100 trinkets, number them and give me a list. Give me a map, hints, thing that beeps, something.
I don’t need any of the above to be unlocked from the start. You can add it in the post game or after I’ve collected some percentage of them or make it a side quest.
It’s annoying going online and someone has posted “I found 99 of 100 things, where else to look?” and basically no one can help them. It’s annoying being that person, to be so close and yet so far.
I mean, they’d get more money for a theatrical/streaming release.
The argument and implied reason for scrapping the film is that they wouldn’t. Look at “Shazam! Fury of the Gods” on a budget of ~$125 million the box office return was ~$135 million. Add in the theater split, any level of marketing, etc and the film lost money. For a streaming release you need to ensure you’ll retain, ideally gain new subscribers.
The number crunchers ran the numbers and said it wasn’t worth it. Although the funny thing is, with all the news about it, they could probably release it now and it would do fine.
That said I don’t agree with what happened, it just seems ridiculous.
So technically, in this specific instance, Trump Mobile isn’t run by Donald Trump. It’s instead a separate company run by Don Jr and Eric Trump. That company is then licensing the “Trump” name from The Trump Organization.
Now The Trump Organization is owned by Donald Trump, although officially run by Don Jr, Eric, etc.
But you’re absolutely right that all of this is bullshit. It’s also why Trump is so pissed at New York AG Letitia James for investigating and uncovering all sorts of shady business practices.
You’re absolutely right that Congress should be doing something about it.
You’re absolutely right. There is IMAX, “IMAX,” and IMAX?
I do have a theater near me that is proper IMAX IMAX, but it’s a rare once a year maybe treat.
I was fully against splitting Wicked into two films. That being says part one was basically a perfect adaptation. I’m planning to see part two next weekend (purely for scheduling reasons) and I fully expect it will be excellent.
Just so it’s not forgotten to time I want to recommend AM2R (Another Metroid 2 Remake). It’s basically what if Metroid 2 was made in the Super Metroid engine.
I’d recommend any of the 2D Metroids, but if you’re going to play Metroid 2, that’s the version to play.
No, the man in the rowboat is on his way to fix door hinges so it’s basically the same thing.
A new house! Just think of all the new doors with hinges that need adjusting.
Yes. I can spend those two hours watching door hinge repair videos on YouTube, I was going to do that anyway.
Sinners spoilers
I liked the movie, but it had issues.
The first half of the film sets up a story of two brothers coming back from war. We learn their backstory, we meet others, it’s got “based on a true story” vibes and it’s well told… But it isn’t that interesting. It’s just setup that you hope pays off later.
Then we first meet the vampire. It’s a weird scene. You’re primed for a realistic story but then the guy is adamant about being invited in, that’s weird. He’s being hunted, that’s weird. And then sure enough, he’s a vampire.
Now the film is interesting. From that point up until the vampires are all (mostly) defeated, it’s a banger of a film. Action. Intrigue. Music. It’s got it all.
Then we have an extra bit of action killing KKK members. It doesn’t really need to happen for the story, but it’s fun action and it kinda wraps around to the first part of the film.
Then we have like 3 endings. The third one is just a bonus, but 1 & 2 leave you feeling differently about the world and story you’ve watched.
The truth is you could cut away about half the film and it would still be a good film. That’s why it feels boring. You need to get the audience into thinking it’s one kind of film, just so you can surprise them with the other.
