| AlCalavicci 01/18/25 2:49:08 PM #79 | It was pretty wild near the end of the series when they had the morphing cube and started getting random people to join in on the war and start morphing to fight theYeerks. I didn't get into the end of the series when I was a kid, but as an adult caught up on all the books and it was interesting to see how much changed after I stopped - basically a small band of unknown secretive morphing teens turning into an army of kids whose identities were known once the Yeerks discovered who they were. --- Sent from my AI Chatbot |

| AlCalavicci 01/15/25 6:42:11 PM #59 | Top tier OST. As someone who grew up loving Trigger, there is a part of me that is compelled by certain aspects of returning to that "world", but overall, I did not like this game. It was kinda boring. I remember trying to play the OG on PS. I think I probably started it 4-5 times and always stopped near the beginning because it was so dull. I somehow pushed through it years later and finished it. Then a few years back when the Remaster came out I replayed it, intending to do all the endings. I don't think I could get past the 2nd or 3rd NG+ ending because the game was just so fucking boring. That battle system is so dull and unfun HudGard posted... Maybe not an excuse but the story outlines for the next game after Cross revolved around saving the original cast. So basically a callback to what Trigger did when Is there a source for this? First time I've heard of it --- Sent from my AI Chatbot |

I'm going to price compare and see if I find it any cheaper, but expecting that will be the price I pay. I have a ton of credit card rewards I might use on this.

| AlCalavicci 01/13/25 12:39:02 PM #21 | Yeah that was awful. The ref clearly saw the belt (in kayfabe) so why did he go to Jericho rather than grab the foreign object to remove it from the ring? Jericho is washed up. I think he was ok the first few years of AEW but man what a drop off. He's also a right winger who has donated to Trump, and his wife was at J6. Kamil posted... The Learning Tree was never going to get over. I haven't been watching AEW the past 1-2 years but I've checked in every now and then and this gimmick is so fucking stupid and I'm appalled that someone like Jericho, who has successfully rebranded himself and gotten unexpected things over so many times in the past, would even think it was a smart idea. Just shows how washed up he is. --- Sent from my AI Chatbot |

I talked about budget near the end of my post but went on the assumption you had an open budget since it wasn't originally stated. I'll take a look at these - I may be able to stretch budget a little bit depending on the price and quality. I also don't necessarily need absolute best, so I can maybe start here and then backtrack with other lower priced ones --- Sent from my AI Chatbot |

I was like 15 I think and I found some of them in my school library. I don't remember how far I got but I know I never finished the series. Did it ever get a proper and satisfying conclusion to the story? I might try to read them again on kindle someday The later half of the series got pretty dark.

Obviously it would only show up there if someone who owned it passed away before selling it and whoever dealt with the estate didn't know the value and Goodwill didn't care to check the value.

As for the expected wait time, it would depend on how small that probability is, but it could range from a few hundred thousand to millions of gummi bears, depending on ppp. The more uncertain the pattern is, the longer it might take before the moon blows up, on average. --- Sent from my AI Chatbot |

I don't remember specifically what Kingambit requirement was but I do remember it being annoying as shit. Was it that a move has to be used x amount of times without dying?

| Topic | Beetlejuice 2 was ok... kinda? Actually I'm a teensy bit disappointed. |
| AlCalavicci 01/07/25 12:50:49 PM #27 | I didn't love it or hate it, it was just ok. My main gripes with it were the makeup and prosthetics. Specifically, BJ's eyes just looked like makeup around the eyes rather than a dark sunken face, and Dafoe's revealed skull didn't look realistic to me. So that took me out of it. I also am not a big fan of choices made just so the audience can identify the familiarness, even when it doesn't make sense for the setting. The example I'll give is Lydia's hair. Her bizarre, jagged bangs from the first movie is the same exact hair style she keeps several decades later? I get it - some people only live in the past with their hair styles, but I thought if they had at least referenced her keeping that look specifically to support her psychic career, I wouldn't have had an issue with it. --- Sent from my AI Chatbot |
| Topic | Final Fantasy 5 and 6 gba are superior to pixel remaster |
| AlCalavicci 01/06/25 12:51:54 PM #43 | Tyranthraxus posted... Correct. They replaced the cameo bosses with the lunar eidolons from FF4DS and also cut about half of the final dungeon. And while it wasn't in the original game, they also cut the super boss from the PSP version. Is it worth going back to the OG TAY? I recall buying the first episode way back in the Wii days and never really gave it much of a chance, didn't play very far.

| Topic | Could Kevin from Home Alone defeat Kevin from Home Alone 2? |
| AlCalavicci 01/06/25 12:47:41 PM #12 | SpawnShadow posted... No. Home Alone 2 Kevin knows exactly how to beat Home Alone Kevin, having once been Home Alone Kevin. This, but I think it depends on venue. In either settings (Kevin's house or that relative's/NY house in HA2), HA2 Kevin takes it. HA2 Kevin has experienced the HA1 house situation, so on that ground he knows what to expect, is familiar with the territory, and knows what his past self did to avoid falling for any of those traps. In the HA2 setting, HA2 Kevin is no worse than HA1 Kevin, and is actually better, because he has the experience of what he did in the HA1 house. The only variable that could help HA1 Kevin IMO is if it is a territory neither of them have been in. But even still, HA2 Kevin has more experience than HA1 Kevin in working with random things to create boobie traps. --- Sent from my AI Chatbot |

I wouldn't call them hastily writing an end to the character by sticking him on the Alien Ranger planet due to him walking off set because of bigotry from the crew "sort of" a proper exit. If we are ignoring behind the scenes details, The 3 OG that left for the peace conference got a better exit. If you're including behind the scenes stuff, Yost's exit was not good by any means and is right up there (and arguably worse) than why the other 3 left (he was right to leave obv) --- Sent from my AI Chatbot |

I have a new outlook on ASJ over the last few years since the legal and Hitler stuff, sucks to see your heroes do shit like that. But knowing who he is as a person and watching him tell the story versus the way Walter tells the story, you can tell ASJ is still high and mighty about all of it while Walter is more controlled and probably mostly over what happened. They weren't wrong to leave. As much as I would love to see the world where they stayed (including them in the MMPR movie, which is a movie that I fucking love even with it's faults), they shouldn't have had to put up with those conditions.
