Finally saw Thor Ragnarok. I really enjoyed it.

Now I can try to watch black panther tomorrow hopefully.

Good

I went and enjoyed it alot. Solid cast for the most part. The exception was W’Kabi.

Just what the hell? Best friend ( I think) of black panther gets annoyed at failure of mission, so fully supports an outsider, even when that guy killed his friend? And what lame resolution to a weird conflict between him and his wife? The whole villan plot was weak.

Other than that, a really neat film. Would see again.

Still haven’t found a really good pizza place here.

Do you have any Casey’s gas stations nearby? It’s not like super deluxe authentic pizza but their pizza is actually pretty good. It’s not your typical gas station pizza they actually have a kitchen with workers whose only job is to make food in house it’s not like most gas stations where they basically just made you a frozen pizza then sneezed on it. I get it sometimes even though I have other choices it’s definitely worth trying. It is also pretty greasy though.

You had me at gas

The Last Jedi Digital/Blu-Ray Release: NOT Theatrical Cut?

I’m pretty sure they changed the Superman scene slightly. Looked less like unfreezing, more like waking up and twitching a little.

I doubt that. I haven’t seen the home release, but all you did was describe what happened in theaters.

Yeah, that sounds exactly like the movie I saw in the theater 4+ times.

Is this text clearer?

native: onscreen text is not subtitled, designed to accompany video that already includes burnt-in alien subtitles
nocrawl: onscreen text is not subtitled, designed to accompany video that does not include burnt-in alien subtitles

It’s a bit clearer. I guess for me what is confusing is that they both state that on-screen text does not subtitled. But it isn’t immediately clear to me what on-screen text is being referred to. Because it is the exact same description “on-screen text is not subtitled”, I automatically think that they are equivalent statements. But since what the on-screen text is, is different, those are not equivalent statements.

Not sure if I’m adequately describing what I find confusing about it or if I’m just being confusing myself.

Is this accurate?

native: opening crawl and alien language is not subtitled, designed to accompany video that already includes burnt-in alien subtitles
nocrawl: opening crawl is not subtitled, but alien language is, designed to accompany video that does not include burnt-in alien subtitles

Thanks for all the information about the compat subtitles. Still seems quite confusing to me… Is the compat more for Hardware players and the straight-up ones are better for software players or is it really a who knows what you will need type of situation? I wonder if you’ve gotten feedback from people about which ones they have tended to use for those languages? Wondering if there is an easy way to say what the specific file each language user should use in most cases.
