I hate Chris Stuckman too. I just hate that style. Neither he or that Jeremy guy have given me any reason to respect their opinions and have given me plenty of reasons to ignore them. Those guys irritate the hell out of me. Luckily, it’s easy to just not watch.
OH, and that other guy who always has his mouth hanging open in his thumbnails. Can’t remember his name, but I don’t like him either.

JEDIT- Got names mixed up. Chris Stuckman is the guy who always has his mouth hanging open. He’s not as irritating as Jeremy.
I can’t find the guy who I originally mixed for Chris…

Eh. The originals are fun and obviously get major props for starting the whole thing but the X series is, in my opinion, better in every conceivable way.

Having played X - X7 it’s hard to go back the originals due to the lack of Dash Boots. It makes them almost impossible for me to fully enjoy

Yeah, I get ya. I walked on the series after 3. Not because I didn’t still like the games, but age and life changes, ect. I have played some of the X games and, yeah, they are better all around. But I still love 2. I love the music (8bit fa lyfe!), the boss design, level design and that opening…
Nothing I’ve seen from the other games come even close to the opening of 2. The music slowly speeding up as the camera pans to the top of the building. MM standing there without his helmet. Heroic. Then the theme kicks in fully. Just awesome.
Then ya press start, the helmet goes on and yer ready to kick some ass!

The only good one was the one that came out about 2000 that has you stopping a bank robbery on first level. That game is fucking gold.

FACTS, man! I love that game and the sequel was alright too. Lot’s of hidden collectables and easter-eggs. All the costumes (ALL of the costumes!) and narration by Stan Lee! Perfect for it’s time. And the re-worked theme on the menu screen is fantastic. It’s right up there with the Ramones cover.

I think her performance felt very forced and like she was trying too hard.

Then that means Margot did a good job because that’s what the character is in general.

How do you mean? The only version of the character I’m even slightly familiar with is the one from the 90’s cartoon show. She seemed effortlessly crazy, like the joker.
But, again, I’m not very familiar with Batman. The Adam West series and 90’s cartoons are the only Batmans I’ve liked.

Note the Star Wars Celebration logo in the bottom left corner. 😉

Right. Didn’t see that.
Still doesn’t mean it’s canon though. Not that I’m complaining either way. Ewoks with guns is pretty awesome regardless.

Ewoks have guns in ROTJ. I don’t know if we see em firing, but I know there’s a shot of one holding a gun above his head in celebration near the end of the battle and we’re clearly meant to think he’s been using it. There needed to be more of that.

Say what you will about millennials — they’re trophy-hungry automatons whose valorization of their own self-esteem impedes their ability to develop interesting personalities and their comically earnest and perpetually irritating self-righteousness only serves to underline just how naive their understanding of the way power dynamics really work in societal structures is, plus you can never tear them away from the phones they keep close to themselves as if they were the only source of non-parental affection they’ve found in this world, which according to the Post is in fact the case — but they’re not stupid.

At least the author managed to work a compliment in there.

I love the one, lone millennial comment at the bottom.

Last Album Listened To
Time

Rock Lobster a great song! I don’t think it’s to long and it’s likely that you were listening to the Radio Edit which is more readily available and a couple minutes shorter than the original album track.
Cosmic Thing is an album I like, but for me it signals the beginning of the end for the B-52s. Ricky was the music man and his absence is felt very strongly here (he died while the band was completing their previous album). They followed it up with Good Stuff which isn’t very good and then disappeared until 2008 when they came back with a different, yet solid album Funplex.
Class dismissed.

Guys, this much salt is no good for you.

Nick66 said:

though you know, one doeS woNder why this project is tAking so long. lucas made the empire strikes back in thRee years, then later released all three films on blu-ray at the same time. And those were in 1080p. so doing one of these 720p projects should be easy, though we’ll be lucKy to see them before episode IX.

Aaaand you’re a dumbass. Way to go.
None of us “wonder” about it at all because the facts have been made plain to read. It was even collected for you and laid out on the previous page.
Dumbass.

JEDIT: “SNARK”… I see you…
Dumbass.

If you need to B*tch about something... this is the place

I’m sick of this trend to have that color-run color dust in every movie ad. It’s a cool effect, but it’s over used. Suicide Squad obviously uses it heavily, as does Ghostbusters. The ads for War Dogs use it at the beginning and the poster for Star Trek Beyond has it. There’s more. General advertisements, music videos, album covers, ect.
Too much!

Superman’s costume for Supergirl strangely looks a lot better in set photos than it did in that official image. Still no trunks, sadly, but other than that I kinda like this costume.

The gold pieces makes it look cheap and phony! And don’t get me started on the stupid looking boots!

He really looks like an embarrassed guy showing up to a kids birthday party to earn a few bucks.
Don’t be embarrassed, guy! Sure, you look totally silly, but those kids will remember this fondly for several hours! And you can take the money the parents give you and treat yourself to the dollar menu at McD’S! It’s not like you’ve been using your dignity for anything anyway…
