Officially canon in history btw

[gloomy cape]

Same.

[unkempt agate]

funny dame da ne guy

[gloomy cape]

Kdot is amazing, I still gotta finish all his albums

[unkempt agate]

cant wait to see him live a happy life in series form

[gloomy cape]

After 8 seasons

[wooden swift]

I've got every Kenny album on vinyl and have played every Yakuza game. Funny lol

Two of my favourite things

[gloomy cape]

Super based

[gloomy cape]

I still need to play part 8

And the side game

[unkempt agate]

i wonder if this series will feature the original voice actors though... if not...

[gloomy cape]

Featuring kiryu chan

[wooden swift]

Hot take but Gaiden>8

[gloomy cape]

If kiryu doesn't have the jotaro deep voice like he has in the game

Then idk

[gloomy cape]

Good take...imo

[unkempt agate]

can the cuck amazon sign the mighty Takaya Kuroda

[wooden swift]

They can't afford him

[gloomy cape]

Hope so

[gloomy cape]

Why

DiscussingFilm (@DiscussingFilm) on X

Eric Kripke teases that ‘THE BOYS’ will likely go beyond the initial 5-season plan.

“No one was more wrong in all of human history about how many seasons their show was going to go than this guy.”

[gloomy cape]

Are these the real voice actors

[wooden swift]

Joking. Most likely can but they ain't going to when they've already gotten their guy. Also Kuroda is probably too busy w the games and his own other projects

They likely tried though

Also no

[gloomy cape]

Yeah makes sense

[gloomy cape]

I hope so

[gloomy cape]

Sad man

[unkempt agate]

lmao I hope its live action

funny as hell

Im not really expecting anything even close to as peak as 0 so might aswell make it funny

[wooden swift]

There's a 50/50 shot that there's a moment where Majima looks into the camera

[unkempt agate]

https://tenor.com/view/goro-majima-hustle-yakuza-dance-moves-gif-17250580

feature this

[wooden swift]

You know what

Amazon did good with fallout

They can do this

[modern lichen]

i was about to mention fallout

but it also depends on the showrunners

fallout had jonathan nolan writing it

[unkempt agate]

Did they

[modern lichen]

he was the showrunner

[unkempt agate]

come to think of it I havent actually ever read someone talk about if fallout is good of not since it came out

but if its good then thats good

[wooden swift]

It actually is, surprisingly

As someone who's played mostly every fallout game

[unkempt agate]

I C !

[modern lichen]

this dude on the right is kiryu, he apparently bulked up

[wooden swift]

[unkempt agate]

[modern lichen]

that promo shot itself apparently took 2 hours to prepare for

[unkempt agate]

Hes smiling too much not my Yakuza

jokes aside he looks pretty cool

[modern lichen]

he's got the height and build for it imo

[wooden swift]

Ok so yeah fallout
Pretty accurate to the source material, new story so it's not just shit being retold (although lots of callbacks to the games), only a small handful of cringe/stupid moments

[modern lichen]

i havent seen fallout past the 2nd episode

but i liked what i saw

pretty competently done all things considered

[wooden swift]

I doubt they go this route with Yakuza, would be hard to create a fully new storyline for Kiryu since it's all been told

[unkempt agate]

are these shots from a video

if so send

[modern lichen]

these are just promo images from the announcement event

[unkempt agate]

but yeah he looks pretty sick. kiryu will look his age for the first time

[modern lichen]

there's no video for it as far as i have checked

[wooden swift]

I just hope they know the goal with this is to not remake the wheel

Too many video game shows and films try that

[unkempt agate]

emphasis on try

[modern lichen]

i dont have much hope in video game adaptations as is

but lately its been in a bit of a better spot

[wooden swift]

Before fallout I didn't either

[unkempt agate]

I mean

[wooden swift]

You know this. I've openly torn apart things like last of us because they just weren't needed

[unkempt agate]

the last of us is pretty good

[modern lichen]

the last of us is probably the exception

[wooden swift]

LMAO

[unkempt agate]

[modern lichen]

its a great show

[wooden swift]

Exit stage left

[modern lichen]

idk what else to say

[unkempt agate]

Big man doesn't like something

[wooden swift]

So here's my thing

[modern lichen]

meh, its a good show

[unkempt agate]

I think so

[modern lichen]

craig mazin knows how to write good stuff

episode 3 of the show especially is a masterclass in adapting an element of the game and making it into an emotionally potent drama

[unkempt agate]

When is something needed

This is interesting criteria to me

[wooden swift]

I liked fallout because even though it has things in it that are familiar to us, and based off of the games, it isn't retelling anything. There's no fallout game you'd get the story of (not that fallout is like. Known for amazing stories besides NV and maybe the OG 2), so it isn't kneecapping games as a medium of storytelling by it's existence

Last of Us, while probably a good show, does do that

[unkempt agate]

probably

[modern lichen]

episode 3 is entirely new material that completely tells an independent story from the game and how it approaches that point

heck the show does something different and adds a shit ton of stuff in every episode imo

[unkempt agate]

ep 3 is the only episode that really diverts from canon material but its so good it balances out everything else

[wooden swift]

Lmfao

[modern lichen]

only the finale seems really conventional and thus pretty boring to me

[wooden swift]

Well John

[unkempt agate]

it kind of was

[wooden swift]

I think we know what Kuroda was busy with

That doesn’t help either

Batman has the most adaptations out of any comic character

[tall mortar]

that's great yeah

[modern lichen]

But yeah, if you’re new, start from the animated series

If you wanna get into the movies, then watch Batman 1989 and then Batman Returns, then watch the Nolan trilogy and then the new one with Pattinson

[final cedar]

Watched the first two episodes of The Acolyte and it was fine, I'm gonna keep watching as I'm interested in the overall mystery and why ||is Mae killing those Jedis and who's her master??||. I didn't expect ||death of Jedi master Indara so fast and a jedi master should have been more powerful. ||

A really dumb thing was ||prisoners including a murder suspect of a Jedi left alone with a ship manned by just droids||, that makes no sense.

Heard some theatres are gonna be playing 7 samurai for a bit

Please be here please be here please be here

[steel vapor]

7 Samurai is great but my favorite Kurosawa samurai movie has got to be Kagemusha

[coarse flower]

Kurosawa has a lot of great movies

My favorite is probably Rashomon

[steel vapor]

He is quite possibly the greatest director of all time

his entire massive filmography is incredible

[coarse flower]

It is

So many hits and masterpieces

[steel vapor]

And his influence cannot be overstated

He inspired much of the modern sci-fi and action genres with movies like Hidden Fortress and the Yojimbo series

he’s one of those oldhead directors where you hear all these legends about him
and think how can such old fashioned movies be so amazing, but when you watch them, they’re still so entertaining to this day

weirdly tho I have heard he is not that popular in Japan

[coarse flower]

He is very influnced by western writers and directors like John Ford, Dostoevsky and Shakespeare

Which could play a factor in that

But he is still fairly well know as far as I know

Maybe not as popular as in the west

Where he is unanimously revered

[steel vapor]

Yes I consider Ran to be possibly the best Shakespeare film adaptation

[modern lichen]

I think Throne of Blood is a stronger film and adaptation but Ran is just so endlessly beautiful

[worthy crypt]

Contextless/spoilerless ramble from one of my favorite guys in malazan:

News? Why, Kruppe is news personified! Details, analysis, reactions from common folk in the streets; all in the blink of an eye and the puff of a single breath. Who needs more?
This new madness we must witness now weekly and all the bolts of burlap wasted on which some purple fool blathers all manner of foul gossip. Why, tis nothing but rags for the ragman, or wipes for the asswipes, or indeed blots for the blotters - bless their feminine wiles. Kruppe rails at this elevation of circumstance and incidence. A profession, the fops now claim, as if baying hounds need certification to justify their slathering barks and snarls.
Whatever happened to common decency? To decent commonry? What's decent is rarely common, that is true enough. While the obverse is perverse in all prickly irony. Would you not agree? Kruppe would, being such an agreeable sort.

Tomb Raider 2001 is the most 2001 movie ive ever seen

3 stars

I like how they made up for Angelina Jolies fake british accent by giving Daniel Craig a fake American one, they achieved perfect balance

[modern lichen]

@brave orbit watching episode 2, really like the concept of this one

[glacial jetty]

finally

[modern lichen]

Dr Who new season ep 2 || the Maestro is a lovecraftian horror being but I love how they have been portrayed here, I love the Doctor genuinely is doubtful and existentially torn by this threat, some really cool shots and imagery as well ||

[brave orbit]

Poggiess

[modern lichen]

watching "hit-man"

genuinely hilarious and fun time

[brave orbit]

Great ep

just watched

||Need Rogue to come back|| Doctor who latest

[trim crown]

So I'm reading the witcher

First book

Witcher book 1 ||I hate how the author tries to sexualize every single woman, jesus wept, and in such a pathetic forced way. Literally someone who never interacted with a woman before. Sheesh||

[sage remnant]

Everyone I know who has read and played it says the games are the definitive experience btw.

[trim crown]

Yea, I can imagine why

Lmao

[crimson lance]

Pretty silly thing to say considering how the games butcher the story

I love the games but they get so much wrong just to make their games work it also treats the women from the books worse

[sage remnant]

I haven't read the books

so can't say

[safe rune]

I been meaning to ask you goro did you ever read hellboy seed of destruction

[sage remnant]

I wanted to read something which required less effort than say reading a book. For a change of pace.

Hellboy had like so much text and I would have to zoom in and out a lot time, making it more difficult to read than an ebook

[modern lichen]

bro cant even read text lmfaooo look at this loser

[coarse flower]

Lol, I know the feel of wanting to read a comic because it has less text,but then you find out it has as much text as a novel

But hellboy's art is quite gorgeous

[modern lichen]

mignola is a master of the comic medium

his pages flow like butter to me

[burnt lake]

@brave orbit this latest DW episode is like a fever dream cause I've been watching Bridgerton 😭

[brave orbit]

LOL

[burnt lake]

I'm almost caught up too

[brave orbit]

This was written by the Loki writers

Neat stuff

[burnt lake]

Oh man

It's also pretty 1:1 on a lot of the clothing

[brave orbit]

Ncuti's outfit is 💯💯💯💯💯

[burnt lake]

The hair in bridgerton is a lot more uhh

Well it's a lot

Bridgerton

Man they really did a 1:1 on the dating seasons as well

At least in high society

AINT NO WAY THEY'RE DOING BAD GUY IN ORCHESTRAL

THEY DO THE SAME SHIT IN BRIDGERTON

[sage remnant]

It's not really the text that's issue but that I would have to zoom into a lot and read the text.
if I could get the app to auto adjust the text like a epub would have then I would easily read it ig

I really dislike reading pdf on phone but love reading epubs

so similar-ish issue

@brave orbit finally watched ittttt Dw latest || another solid episode. I love a good period piece. Definitely wishing these episodes were a bit longer, feels like they could all use just a bit more fluff. Only thing I didn’t really like was the transporter plot device, felt kind of poorly defined. Rogue was just sort of able to yank ruby off at the end so I’m not really sure why it was such a big deal. ||

|| that scene of the doctor playing through song in the spaceship 🤌||

[brave orbit]

Yea

Still thought it was great tho

||Need Rogue back as a companion... Hopefully its for S3||

[glacial jetty]

yea it was

[modern lichen]

[brave orbit]

Its my fav of the season so far

[glacial jetty]

3, 4, and 5 are all bangers

[brave orbit]

I think 2 is too

[modern lichen]

2 is good as well

i lived in wales last year so the next episode should hit a bit close to home i guess

[glacial jetty]

well its alright

[brave orbit]

I have a dog his name's Fred 🎶

[modern lichen]

one thing i like a lot now is the visual upgrade

its that disney money

[glacial jetty]

its very crisp

[brave orbit]

Boom wasnt filmed on green screen

The set was there fully with LED screens

Also @glacial jetty not sure if you saw but there is gonna be another Tales of the tardis ep for the finale 👀

I think its between Ruby and Mel

[glacial jetty]

I did not but that’s sick

[modern lichen]

@brave orbit @glacial jetty episode 4 is dope as fuck

[brave orbit]

Who know a website where I can read batman comics on my phone with no ads

[modern lichen]

i'm afraid there's no such website

if you are willing to have something like a browser with an adblocker

wow this is an unsettling episode

my god

[brave orbit]

The funniest thing is the UK calling the general election the day before the ep aired

[lime stratus]

How can I get no ads on phone

[modern lichen]

just hopeless throughout

[modern lichen]

do you have an iphone

download the adguard app

[lime stratus]

Yeah

[modern lichen]

if your default browser is safari, then adguard works well enough

otherwise you can download brave too

Is this really the end of batman year one ?

it's one of the more annoying things I've watched

only saw an episode but still

[modern lichen]

its not good

i love its always sunny though

[young compass]

it feels very disingenuous

did you see that always sunny podcast

where rob made a fool of himself

yeah idk lmao, very quickly has been revealed to me how much of a tool this guy is

was painful to watch for poor charlie

[modern lichen]

i mean, rob is kinda like.. not the reason i check that out, usually i go for glenn howerton or charlie day

[young compass]

I guess anyone who associates with ryan reynolds is a red flag tbh

I guess I specifically mean that one clip

[modern lichen]

oh i did yeah lol

[young compass]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Td9RXWDwj18

[modern lichen]

not a good look

[young compass]

Charlie saying Rob's ideas seemed inorganic while Rob sits there with his new plastic face is hilarious. Funnier than anything in the show in years
from the comments, yep lol

though, i haven't seen the show in quite a few seasons

[modern lichen]

its still really good

[young compass]

did you like that season where they went to ireland

i heard it was divisive

[modern lichen]

it wasnt like, my favorite thing the show has done but i think i found it fun enough to keep watching

[glacial jetty]

[dim hedge]

It was also extra fun because this was the first one this season that i finally caught up to so i talked about it with my other dr who fan friend and the one whos first ep it was

Dr who latest || the 3 of us cried on call about it for a while ||

[glacial jetty]

not a bad episode to be the first one you watch tbh

[dim hedge]

Yeah pretty good one

Got her invested in the characters and excited to check out the rest of Ncuti

And hopefully the rest someday

Dr who latest || helped that shes a huge bridgerton fan and out other friend told her about that part of the ep ||

Also now that I’m caught up to this run, it’s incredible so far

Oh and beyond the soiderverse, i actually forgot about that

[sage remnant]

oh that too

[dim hedge]

Forgot about that too

I don't see that being as good as the hype movie 2 sets for it

but it would be obv very good I hope

[dim hedge]

Dune hasn’t left my head since February and i love it

[sage remnant]

don't read the books. Just finish with deni V's movies

[dim hedge]

I think they’re 2 movies very strong rn so i don’t see them messing up the third

[sage remnant]

and only read the books after if you like

[sage remnant]

It's not about messing up the third
it's about the way second movie ended

[dim hedge]

Was planning on reading the books

Might just read the first then and read messiah and the rest after movie messiah

[sage remnant]

villeneuve tells the story in the better way than the books

you know what you should do?

that you haven't been doing for last 3 years?

finish The way of kings 😭

Damn

[arctic flax]

Mcu stuff tend to be more enjoyable if u avoid trailers and anything else in my experience.Nowdays, ppl know the whole movie before it comes out

[modern lichen]

I've been checked out of the MCU for a while now tbh

The last thing I watched was Quantamania I think

[arctic flax]

same, I used to watch everything but stopped after the secret invasion

What a wasted potential piece of trash that was

[modern lichen]

Secret Invasion is one of my favorite comic arcs, I love a good paranoid mystery thriller, as a fan of Hitchcock but I never saw the show even try to attempt something, I dropped the show halfway through the first episode i think

[arctic flax]

lost faith in disney making a good tv series. all their shit is 2 hours movies broken into 6 episodrs

[modern lichen]

I mean

They made X-Men 97

[arctic flax]

a cartoon did it much better

[modern lichen]

Which is a masterpiece

[arctic flax]

I gotta see that and loki s2

[modern lichen]

I have heard good things about Loki S2 but X-Men 97 is just incredible from start to finish

[arctic flax]

They needa get back to doing more animated content, they had lot of gems

avengers earth mightiest heroes one of the best comic animated shows

criminal it got cancelled

[modern lichen]

That was not a Marvel Studios production but yeah I get your point, DC usually has Marvel beat in the animation department

[arctic flax]

even dc animation nowdays isnt touching the timmverse era but some of the shows have been fun

im pissed they lift young justice in limbo again

[modern lichen]

I don't think anything now can reach the heights of the DCAU

But I'm very excited about Caped Crusader

It's a very intriguing concept already and made more exciting by Timm returning to the sort of stuff that gave him a start

[arctic flax]

yeah dcau had lot of peak superhero content. my favorite is JLU

[modern lichen]

Batman the Animated Series might be my favorite show ever, tied to Mr. Robot, I'd say

[arctic flax]

Timms a good writer, he just need to stay away from writing romance, that batgirl-batman stuff is gross

[modern lichen]

Oh brother

That shit haunts me

[arctic flax]

fellow mr robot enjoyer. fking love that show

top 5 all time to me

[modern lichen]

Yeah, I watched the final season as it came out and it changed the way I look at TV

[arctic flax]

wish i could watch it for first time

i binged it in 2021

[modern lichen]

[brave orbit]

Is this the best TARDIS set ever

[modern lichen]

Yeah

Easily

[brave orbit]

true

I liked 12's too

but this has 12's cool multilevel interior and 11's cool lighting

So would he

(it was unscripted)

[modern lichen]

@young compass maybe this counts? there wasnt much thought behind it though

[young compass]

that's sort of humorous but more due to just how sardonic you were

ive heard that movie was awful l o l

literally never heard praise

[modern lichen]

its horrible

i watched it out of obligation from watching the first one

which is already like fucking horrible

[arctic flax]

lowkey wanna see it to see how bad it is

[modern lichen]

its barely legible slop, in every way

[arctic flax]

is it even so bad its good or boring bad?

[modern lichen]

its just basically libertarian fantasy scifi

boring bad

[arctic flax]

damn

[young compass]

but yeah, i guess i ask out of pure curiosity. I generally end up being a bit silly when i write stuff due to it being discord and finding it fun as an exercise, but obviously in more serious situations id write around humor i guess, like nothing super overt just a bit silly.

[arctic flax]

snyderfans were hyping tf out of it lmao

wonder how they coping

[modern lichen]

i dont usually write on discord because like, i end up writing a bit too much about stuff i like, if something is bad i just dont have the capacity to talk about it in a verbose manner so i end up being very sardonic

[arctic flax]

i should get back to watching more movies. only been watching anime/manga for past 8 months

[scenic frost]

CR c3e68 || man Marisha mixed up the lore so well Matt had to eventually give up and intervene ||

What happens this episode I forgot

I love severance

[arctic flax]

such a unique concept

[burnt lake]

Fr

I'm so excited for s2

[scenic frost]

CR c2e68 || keyleth got healed ||

[mild seal]

Cr c3e68 ||oh they got the gooch flower||

[scenic frost]

CR c3e68 || they used it, yeah ||

Cr c3e68 || that divination shit at the end was so broken ||

https://fixupx.com/discussingfilm/status/1800226116155941365?s=46 LETS GOOOOOOO @burnt lake

[arctic flax]

man, im gonna be feasting. all my anticipated shows dropping 2nd half of this year, starting with this month

[burnt lake]

LRTS GOOOO

[glacial jetty]

no tbh

most of the time in the show its white too, gives it kind of a sterile feel

[brave orbit]

12 one is great yea

But eh i do like the sterile look

This is what the og one looked like too

[glacial jetty]

i always prefer a more lived in feel

15's is just a bunch of ramps, kind of explains why they haven't spent much time in there this season

[brave orbit]

I love the ramps 😭

[golden lynx]

Anyone else who feels a general lack of excitement for the MCU?

[young compass]

I feel none at all actually

I don’t think I ever truly have. The films are just fun social events if you have friends into that sort of thing, can small talk about them as well with all sorts of folks

Think you’re probably just sick of it after all these fucking movies and such lol

[arctic flax]

multiverse saga is a flop. bunch of plots that go nowhere and it feels directionless. though there were a couple good movies

no longer feel excitement for every release

[golden lynx]

After all the Avengers craze, it feels like it was doomed to die down.

[arctic flax]

they are doing quantity over quality

[golden lynx]

Yeah, sadly...

[arctic flax]

and handing important projects to shit writers

[golden lynx]

Lmfao, that's one way to word it, but I don't disagree.

[worthy crypt]

I don't think the point was ever to create profound art out of superhero ip

Its like transformers but with slightly more continuity. Explosions and super powered punches

[fickle ember]

Shit, really wasn’t expecting this

Use to watch his videos many years ago before he took off

[safe rune]

I'm sad now

Rest in peace Benny

[regal root]

RIP Benny

[worthy crypt]

Just finished malazan 8 || what a great climax. The convergence in darujistan and the battle in dragnipor were almost perfect. Kalor, rake, karsa, the standoff between kruppe and iskaral pust to break up the serious action. So much to love || looking forward to moving on to 9 but gonna listen to the dark forest 3 body book 2 first

[north sun]

||Kallor ending though|| Malazan 8

[worthy crypt]

Malazan 8 || I already liked kallor but his confrontation with spinnock pushed it up a level, I loved that. ||

[little hull]

Oh.. R.I.P

was really big on his videos a few years back damn.. may he rest in peace

[pliant gust]

rip black goku

hau

[golden lynx]

That's so sad... Benny was the go-to for any comic related content to me, so many good memories.
Rest in peace, Benny ❤️‍🔥

[tall mortar]

The Director’s Cuts of both of Zack Snyder’s ‘REBEL MOON’ films will debut on Netflix on August 2.

[worthy crypt]

Hey I'm sure there's some tiny minority who enjoyed it and will be happy to get a director's cut

No need to get mad, can just shrug and say "not for me" and move on to something you like

[modern lichen]

lmao

[dim hedge]

Cinema has truly peaked

I still wanna know whats the point of having a directors cut on a fucking streaming movie

[modern lichen]

snyder didnt have any pressure from netflix either

he had full control

both the versions currently out on netflix are the PG ones

the ones he's releasing are R-rated ones

[jolly heath]

https://x.com/hollywoodhandle/status/1800543768476807198 i wont believe it till i see official confirmation..

‘ARCANE’ Season 2 will be the final season of the series.

Twitter · Jun 11, 2024, 3:01 PM

[modern lichen]

i think i like the idea

2 seasons, done and dusted

[jolly heath]

there's so many other characters whose stories they can tell though

[modern lichen]

true

[tawny parcel]

Maybe they’ll just have a differently titled show

[jolly heath]

true. . .

[jolly heath]

https://vxtwitter.com/arcaneshow/status/1800545290241667414

seems to be the case...

👁️

[modern lichen]

if i wanted this story to run longer i'd like it to be more episodic so this is a great decision for the kind of format they're telling this one through

[tawny parcel]

[modern lichen]

and i'm glad they're working on a new project that looks extremely interesting

[tawny parcel]

Yeah, in and out. Not making 8 seasons of one champion

[jolly heath]

indeed

give me a season that features rengar and kha'zix... (this will never happen)

they'll probably do some demacia/noxus stuff

[tawny parcel]

https://youtu.be/AEbfiLaOdJA?si=hBrivaoPTCUAtcSb awesome score

[modern lichen]

also, next season of boys being the final one is also good news

glad its ending without going through extra loops

on the other hand, severance s2

[uncut yarrow]

ive downloaded the movie! ill let u know once i watched it

watched little miss sunshine yesterday

[cursive venture]

Andor doing the same I think

[modern lichen]

yep, i love that decision

[arctic flax]

huh? saw a tweet few days ago that boys will go on for more seasons according to kripke

damn, its actually fr

||maybe homelander is defeated this season and butcher is final villian, similar to breaking bad||

man, ill be missing it when its over

they can still milk the franchise with spin offs

heard gen v is good, need to check that out

[modern lichen]

the spin off is intertwined with the series at a basic fundamental level

Arcane is going to finish Jinx's and Vi's story. ❤️ I can't wait to see which story riot/studio fortiche work on next

[modern lichen]

They’re doing an original story next I believe

[scenic terrace]

Maybe Arcane was so successful, they could hire additional staff and grow to be able to work on a 2nd project

[modern lichen]

I think this is a great idea

Utilizing the already incredible style of Arcane and pushing it to be more for the big cinematic canvas

Plus with an original IP of their own

[scenic terrace]

Pretty big risk if it's the only project they'll work on, but I'm hopeful about my previous statement

[modern lichen]

You mean a second project that’s related to Arcane or that world?

[scenic terrace]

That whatever team that worked on Arcane will continue to work on league of legends IP

[modern lichen]

I think the contrary on that

I love the original IP idea for a movie made for the big screen, that poster is just gorgeous btw

[regal root]

There's a lot of fun they could do TV wise set in the LoL universe
