She's unpopular in most districts in the US except the one that matters: her district. She's extremely popular in her district as she won basically 70-30.

Yes, that means most people in that district are just as stupid as her. Yes, I'm generalizing.
I was in her district last weekend.

No, you're not generalizing. They are that stupid.

What I've taken from this topic is that apparently Nintendo should make a console that costs over a thousand dollars and has a half hour of battery life so that it can have a handheld that competes with PC specs. Because apparently that will be a smart business decision.

And if they won't do that, they should ditch the handheld market altogether. Sure, it was the entire reason the switch was as successful as it was, but fuck it. Grafix.

Conversely, they should just abandon their most successful product line and go third party, because some people want to count Mario's mustache hairs.

I still think our best chance of saving CE as a community is reaching out to the guide creators and get them to threaten to pull their work if the boards get shut down.

The guides are the only things driving traffic here. Without them their purchase of the site is a net loss. That would probably be a ton of work though when we could just keep with the migration plan we currently have.
The only one that matters is CyricZ, and he won't do it.

That's exactly what the Mandalorian, Aksoka, and Bad Batch are supposed to be.

Literally the entire purpose of all three is to explain away "somehow, Palpatine returned" and give background to the First Order. It's trying to do exactly what Clone Wars did for the prequels. It just isn't working, because the sequels are making the series worse, rather than the series making the sequels better.

The prequels had a cohesive story, better actors, MUCH better fight choreography, and were marred mostly by terrible dialogue.

The sequels had better CGI and... that's basically it.

Both were bad. But The Clone Wars and other supplementary material retroactively supplemented the prequels and made them much better. Disney is currently trying to do the same thing for the ST through the Mandalorian, Bad Batch, and Ahsoka... but it's not working. If anything, it's making those series worse, rather than making the ST better. Which I think itself speaks to the quality difference in the stories.

On the one hand, if less volume means increased focus/quality per film, then great.

On the other hand... They're talking about "more avengers" in 2026. Look, it's been 5 years since Endgame. They've MORE than spent their "we need to build back up like phase one" token, by now. And there is NOTHING to care about, anymore. Cap amd Tony were the heart of the team, and there's still no good replacement for them. Thor's fucked off to do his own thing, the Guardians have split up, and Gamora still doesn't give a shit since she was replaced, spider man deleted himself from everyone's mind, Dr strange was barely a member in the first place, and has ALSO fucked off to do his own thing, Captain Marvel is a charisma vacuum who does not give a single shit about anyone else on the team... like, there IS no "Avengers" anymore, and what they have isn't nearly cohesive enough to stand next to the original group, even in their first movie.

To say nothing about how directionless it all feels. Kang was a flop, and now They're pivoting to Galactus, it looks like. Phase 4 was a bunch of pointless, disconnected character pieces that fizzled out without a capstone movie. Half the movies ended major character arcs, dissolved groups, etc. and replaced them with nothing, so there's nothing left to be invested in. It's clear they were banking on people resonating with Captain Marvel and The Marvels so they'd be the new "heart and soul" of the group... but that didn't happen.

Now they have three (?) Movies to pull it all together and make it work? Yeah, I REALLY don't see that happening.
Series should have ended with Endgame.

I'll be honest, I don't really disagree (except for the Danny Elfman score). The film is pretty dull, and while Jack Nicholson is, himself, great, his joker was nothing special. Most jokers feel unique and twisted in their own special way; his was a generic mob boss with maybe a couple jokes, and a catchphrase that could have made him one of the Wet Bandits.

The best part about the movie was that it inspired the Animated Series, which is incredible

Also, the BS way they get out of the situation with Doctor really does a disservice to the story.

I get it. Yusuke has never killed a pureblood human being before, and we have to give him the good-hearted-anime-boy thing. But honestly? He should have killed him. He should have been forced to kill him to save lives, and struggled with the choice for the rest of the arc. Forces him to content with Sensui's philosophy because he's sentenced a monster to death for the "greater good." Then it can come to a head with Gamemaster, when they have to make the same choice with a less sinister target. They do. And now they aren't so removed from Sensui's grand plan. And yusuke's teetering on a moral event horizon.

The biggest problem I have with it is that I have a very hard time seeing most of the Seven as credible threats.

Like, after the Dark Tournament, Kido, Yanagisawa, Seaman, Sniper, and Doctor should be absolute fodder. The fact they aren't instantly speedblitzed and KOd is silly.

And to be fair, some of them are... but the fact that Sniper can fuck with them the way he does is ridiculous considering he's basically just a regular dude.

Things were at their best when the crew were dealing with things that their powers couldn't help with. Kaito and Gamemaster were the most interesting challenges in the whole arc.
