specialkid8 10/25/23 6:50:35 PM #6 | I don't know when the book was finished but that takes time and then adapting it takes time. They're never going to pass up an opportunity to tap back into a popular franchise and there's no such thing as too late. Just look at Avatar. It took Jim Cameron 35 years to finally make the sequel.

A part of me feels like McConnell is probably confused af why the Republican party, the party that started the Red Scare, elected Reagan, and nominated Romney, is now not wanting to put their foot to Russia's throat. People like having an enemy but dumb people can only handle one thing at a time. They aren't really paying attention to Russia because they're being told that democrats are their enemy at the moment. --- https://i.imgur.com/AUXKMK4.jpg |

this has vibes of the celebrity lockdown music video from their palatial estates as others lost their homes, died, and were bullied by work to come in and get exposed to corona (and/or were forced to -- the lowest of the low earners) This is exactly what it reminded me of. If you ever think any celebrity is a normal down to earth kind of dude, remember that they are pretty much all, secretly or not, crazy or dumb as shit. It's just the kind of personality Hollywood attracts/creates. --- https://i.imgur.com/AUXKMK4.jpg |

My brother in Christ, from Winter Soldier through Endgame, every movie aside from Captain Marvel and Black Panther is an easy 8/10 or better.I'll give you credit for not thinking Black Panther is great. I know I'm in the minority but I think it's bottom of the barrel. Other than that, you're gonna tell me Ant Man and Doctor Strange are at least 8/10? They are both the definition of middle of the road. No ones favorite movies. Also, let's not forget that Iron Man 3 and Thor 2 are in Phase 2. And as much as I think they're full of shit, a lot of people hate Avengers 2 for whatever reason. So phase 2 has, at best, a 50% hit rate. Phase 3 is around 50% as well including what I mentioned above. Outside of Thor 4 (even the hate for it is overblown) I cannot comprehend most of the hate any of the phase 4 movies get. Black Widow is a bit uneven but the core family drama and actor chemistry easily carries the movie. Eternals has a lot going on but, again, the core story is some super cool golden age scifi stuff. MoM, I think people just had wild expectations for what they thought the movie was and are upset at the movie for some reason for being wrong. --- https://i.imgur.com/AUXKMK4.jpg |

specialkid8 10/24/23 3:42:48 PM #1 | The ip is super hot right now and it would be really easy for them to just shine up 1,2,3, and CV and release them together. The remakes are great but the originals haven't been easily available on modern hardware for years. A few of them already got the HD treatment but even which ones were chosen and what system they went to has been kind of random. Seems like an easy way for Capcom to earn a quick buck.

The reboot trilogy was fine. There were plenty of, ahem, less than stellar entries in the series long before them (6, Resurrection, and Rob Zombie's Halloween II are all easily at the bottom of the list).6 is really the only terrible one. Resurrection is full camp and borders on so bad it's good and I will defend the zombie movies til the day I die. They aren't traditional Halloween movies but you can't deny Rob has a style of his own and they do exactly what they set out to do even if it's not what people wanted. 2018 is decent enough but has wild tonal shifts and the partial reboot aspect feels unnecessary. The other two are completely embarrassing jokes. --- https://i.imgur.com/AUXKMK4.jpg |

specialkid8 10/22/23 10:08:26 AM #12 | PeteyParker posted...
It's not that the EU wasn't canon, it was that anything in the EU was given the caveat that it could be ignored should Lucas choose to do something that contradicts it in the future. There were even certain subjects that weren't allowed to be used for stories because Lucas wouldn't allow it. So everything in the EU was canon until it wasn't and then Disney came along and the "wasn't" happened for all of it.Yes, that's what not canon means Dark_Arbron posted... If you enjoy it, who cares if its canon? That only matters when trying to use something as evidence in a debate. It should have no effect on your ability to enjoy something.I only ever bring it up because people still like to shake their fists at Disney for "destroying" the EU when it never existed to begin with. They just like being mad. --- https://i.imgur.com/AUXKMK4.jpg |

specialkid8 10/22/23 9:02:38 AM #1 | Since there still seems to be confusion about this. The only thing officially decanonized after the Disney buyout was the Force Unleashed games. Although one of them is a great game it's no great loss to the Star Wars story. Lucas gave the stamp of approval for people to play in his sandbox but did not accept anything else as part of it.
