[burnt lake]

[modern lichen]

you gotta wait a month then

i'm doing the same

[burnt lake]

I'm fine with that

[dim hedge]

Would’ve been better to give us the regular length ep in the first batch and makes us wait for the movie ep instead of both

[modern lichen]

its like they're being too ambitious

its just the penultimate season man

do it in a regular way

[burnt lake]

I heard the comics are pretty interesting for ST

[modern lichen]

you can do all of this with the final one

[burnt lake]

Stranger Things s1/comics

[proper flare]

BB S2E10 i cant think of any better line from this

[dim hedge]

ST s4 ep 6 || STEVE OH SHIT ||

ST s4 ep 7 || STEVE OH SHIT ||

[proper flare]

BB S2E11 POV: it's you winning argument after a debate with 14 yo kid on discord server

[modern lichen]

watched the first 2 episodes of obi wan kenobi

obi wan kenobi ||i hope they do the inquisitors better but goddamn, is the vader reveal cool||

[copper phoenix]

kenobi ep 2 || the problem with the inquisitors is because they're never gonna be strong enough to deal with obiwan even if he's rusty for 10 years atm they're just being clowns ||

I still have hopes

[modern lichen]

obi wan kenobi ||i wish they could do better but lets see||

obi wan kenobi ||gotta love the transition from obi wan having a meltdown to vader just seething in that fuckin tank with the music blaring||

obi wan kenobi ||leia right there too thats gotta hurt||

[copper phoenix]

kenobi ep 2 || that's what I'm mostly looking forward to, the whole exploration of obiwan's trauma and regrets after the events and his interaction with vader ||

kenobi || because the action is really not looking good ||

[modern lichen]

kenobi ep 2 ||i really like the idea of him going full hermit and renouncing the force and having to face his regrets when he confronts vader||

kenobi ep 2 ||i do think a full action overhaul in the coming episodes at least with obi wan and vader coming at each other||

[dim hedge]

Finished season 4, well whats out for season 4

I’ll write down my thoughts in the morning, why wasn’t ep 8 released in the first volume it’s a regular length ep

At least in a month ep 8 and 9 will be out

[modern lichen]

@jolly heath are you gonna watch the exandria unlimited calamity episode that will come out day after?

[jolly heath]

im assuming it takes place during current campaign stuff/time so probably not

[modern lichen]

No

[jolly heath]

since i havent even finished c2 yet

[modern lichen]

Exandria Unlimited Calamity|| takes place before the calamity ||

Exandria Unlimited Calamity || during the age of the arcanum just before the calamity, it's a story of how the calamity happens ||

[jolly heath]

ohh so its like a super prequel

interesting

[modern lichen]

It's a prequel yep

[jolly heath]

hmm

[modern lichen]

And it's fuckin amazing

[jolly heath]

i still kinda wanna watch it after i catch up fully though

😭

[modern lichen]

Man you're missing out

The first episode was mind-blowing

[jolly heath]

👀

aaaa i just wish i had the time to catch up right now

[modern lichen]

It's not Matt DMing tho

It's Brennan Lee Mulligan

Who does Dimension 20

But holy fuck is he incredible in this with his DMing

[jolly heath]

hmm

i heard dimension 20 is pretty good

but matt is my boy...

[modern lichen]

Matt highly respects Brennan and Brennan delivered more than what was expected

Dude does tone so incredibly well

[jolly heath]

👀

intriguing

[modern lichen]

Brennan worked with Matt on this and Matt loved it so much he apparently cried in joy

You should've seen the twitch chat man

We were going wild

[crimson lance]

clone wars || RIP blue lightsaber ||

[keen badger]

Anyone who's into the A Song of Ice and Fire Universe? I'm having a hard time looking for a discord channel.

[modern lichen]

yeah, this is the right channel for that

i have given up on martin honestly

so if winds comes out as anticipated then thats great

i dont know if that will ever happen

[crimson lance]

asoiaf reddit probably has their own discord

[keen badger]

i'll look into it.

[copper phoenix]

even if winds come it's not even the final book

I don't even care anymore

[crimson lance]

winds being finished would probably make it easier to write the next one

[brave orbit]

I can link the interview but it has lots of spoilers for random stuff

[fickle ember]

So was got tv ending an equivalent to an anime original ending? Or did the guy work with the tv people for an ending

Since books aren’t done

[brave orbit]

GRRM interview (Star wars spoilers, Stan lee comics, General Marvel stuff, GoT, LOTR) || https://www.independent.co.uk/arts-entertainment/books/features/george-rr-martin-interview-game-of-thrones-b2088451.html?utm_source=reddit.com ||

[modern lichen]

yeah

martin gave a rough structure to the tv showrunners

and when the books were adapted, the showrunners just took it forward from there

and they fucked that up

[fickle ember]

ic ic

I fell off mid s5 I think, want to eventually finish it but so many haters now

[modern lichen]

the previous book was released before the show and while the show has ended, the book is nowhere near coming out

s6 is where you can stop imo

s7 and 8 just are so bad

8 is egregiously bad

[outer tulip]

I heard the new book will have a different ending or something

[sonic quail]

Yea but i feel like if u know going in what a shit show it will be u can at least enjoy the spectacle

Bad things can still be entertaining imo

[sacred notch]

The owl house s2 finale, it hit me deeply in my kokoro 😭

[shadow sequoia]

I need to watch it

[cunning spruce]

I feel that actually. Maybe not so much hate, more like, tired and sick of it.

[cunning spruce]

It's behind a paywall 😦

[copper phoenix]

then pay

[cunning spruce]

I dun wanna

[fickle ember]

http://archive.today/

Just enter paywall sites into that

[cunning spruce]

Ooh, thank oyuu

[fickle ember]

[crimson lance]

not even a paywall

just a sign up for free wall

[cunning spruce]

I just noticed that. Lolol

I was like, "Oh wait"

[fickle ember]

Don’t do it meu

They’ll spam your email

[cunning spruce]

I already get enough emails, so I'll pass on this. Lolol

[rich meadow]

I've been hearing mixed things about Kenobi

React to this with a thumbs up or down if it's worth watching

[feral blaze]

can always unsubscribe from them.

[cunning spruce]

True

[outer tulip]

Chances are the stuff introduced will be included in future Star Wars stuff so def worth watching

[rich meadow]

nice, good to know

[sage sleet]

how many eps is obi supposed to be

also my roku remote absolutely eats through my batteries that claim to be "guaranteed for 10 years" in no more than 2-3 weeks

[hoary hawk]

6

[sage sleet]

tyty

might wait a week or 2 if i have other things to watch

[feral kettle]

seated for top gun 2

[hoary hawk]

have fun

[leaden depot]

||Holy fuck, I cant with this, is Alfred E Neuman lmfao|| Superman #126

[white smelt]

To be decided

[fickle ember]

You use anything to track your comic readings hog?

[leaden depot]

comicgeeks, altho they lack on non-american books

https://leagueofcomicgeeks.com/profile/jmfr95/read-list

[fickle ember]

You been busy

Most read character stats are cool

[hoary hawk]

wheres urs?

[fickle ember]

Read too much Spider-Man so his supporting cast end up being in my stats

[hoary hawk]

dang i didnt know u were a huge robbie robertson fan

[fickle ember]

It’s auto generated based on character appearances smh

[leaden depot]

Yep lol

lol yeah is based on the character list of each issue

So even if they appear for 2 panels they count

Also if you think that number is big

lol

And I have only tracked titles that start in 1967 or earlier

[fickle ember]

[leaden depot]

And yeah this is why my anime/manga pace plummeted

My pfp there is from this btw https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Eternaut

Actually is not just comics

Is movies too

The top ones so far

This may be controversial but Ikiru > Seven Samurai imo

[fickle ember]

I have a pic of spidey reading the newspaper

[burnt lake]

Hog what are you gonna do when you catch up with everything

[simple epoch]

should I give GoT a chance, I heard the 8th season is kinda trash so I'm hesitant to pick up the show.

[hoary hawk]

go to disneyland

yea

first few seasons still worth it

honestly last few seasons have ruined its image

[fickle ember]

8th season pretty far away, enjoy what’s before it

[hoary hawk]

but first few seasons were some of the best stuff

i enjoyed watching every year

[leaden depot]

Go to a retirement home probably

[burnt lake]

Lmfao

[simple epoch]

ok thx guess I'll check it out then.

[leaden depot]

My boys as my background pic

[fickle ember]

I use the app so I can’t see my background enough to take a pic

[leaden depot]

Golden Age was pretty DC centric

[copper phoenix]

hog is your goal to consume every single piece of media in the universe?

[fickle ember]

I’ve only read golden age batman

Skipped that age for everyone else

[leaden depot]

lol

I dont blame you

I skipped most WW2 issues

Especially the Marvel ones, whew

[leaden depot]

For comics so far is been mostly super hero stuff, I ignored most of the rest

Mid 1960s are gonna be the start of underground comix tho, gonna be something

[copper phoenix]

enjoy

[leaden depot]

But yeah I'm finishing 1958 stuff, shit is gonna hit the fan soon

Silver Age already starting its motion

[fickle ember]

Just noticed but I’m ahead just barely

[leaden depot]

lol

Well I started in like

November 2020

1.5 years to go through a lil over 20 years

But that pace gonna slow bad now that Marvel is gonna throw a bazillion heroes lol

[fickle ember]

you planning to do everyone or just characters you're interested in?

[leaden depot]

Like man, 1961-1964 Marvel was all hits

Every hero they introduced is still around today

[fickle ember]

don't get burned out

[leaden depot]

I did a list just recently

[leaden depot]

Fantastic Four
Ant Man and The Wasp
Hulk
Spider-Man
Thor
Dr Strange
Ironman
Spider-Man
Sgt. Fury
Reintroduced Captain America and Namor
Avengers
X-Men
Daredevil

Altho X-Men is an asterisk lol

The 1960s team wasnt really popular

[copper phoenix]

xmen in the 60s was JANK

but I loved the campy vibe

[leaden depot]

Oh 1960s is the age of campy

Also I'm in that weird era of Batman

1956-1964

Where is mostly sci-fi related stuff or Batfamily stuff

This Batfamily I may add

[fickle ember]

speaking of batfamily, the batman webtoon is pretty wholesome

[leaden depot]

Altho Batgirl (not that one) and Bat-Mite havent debuted yet

Batwoman is legit just

"We cant use Catwoman anymore so let's make a similar character that is not a criminal"

[fickle ember]

bathound's intro issue is something i still remember despite not remembering most of the older stuff

[leaden depot]

Catwoman wont come back until... the TV show lol

And then back to the comics in 1967

[leaden depot]

lmao

iirc they even do like

A Justice League of super pets lmao

Cause everyone ends up with one

[fickle ember]

[leaden depot]

And of course Teen Titans for all the young sidekicks

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Legion_of_Super-Pets

[fickle ember]

problem with team books, which you probably won't have since you're reading everything is the references to everyones backstories in separate past titles

[leaden depot]

Yeah I'm going in chronological order

Altho I will read events as a whole

So all those issues in a row

I feel it will make things less confusing

[burnt lake]

Adventure Time s2 ||didn't realize The Litch was introduced here||

[leaden depot]

Also soon

[fickle ember]

[leaden depot]

Always love MAD self-promotion stuff lol

[burnt lake]

Adventure Time s2 ||forgot PB fuckin dies||

[burnt lake]

Finished s2

[hoary hawk]

i finished s2 of atlanta too

on szn 3 now

[nova zephyr]

thoughts?

[burnt lake]

Adventure Time s2 ||s1 felt like it was introducing the world through the eyes of Finn, being a kid, and s2 is him starting to wake up to the idea that the world is a lot darker than he realizes, especially with the eye-opener being The Litch||

[patent sparrow]

Top Gun Maverick ||better than the first one by far. every second was entertaining and that last part was really cool!||

[outer tulip]

Top Gun || the dog fight at the end has to be my favorite aviation scene ever.,, with the flares and all that shit just had me hype and on edge. Excellent movie ||

[hoary hawk]

loving it

but ||szn 3 has been a bit meh from what i seen so far. ep 1 was interesting doe, i remembered the story it was based on irl when they mentioned grand canyon and then everything clicked for me. glad they survived doe. but ye the barbershop ep was funny af in szn 2|| atlanta szn 2/3

[nova zephyr]

yea

[nova zephyr]

atl s3 || it's really...disconnected from the whole make it out of the hood schtick and went international, so alot of people feel weird about it and thought it wasnt as relatable, episodes still slap imo tho||

[feral kettle]

S3 is heat

super different tho

Saw top gun maverick btw

[hoary hawk]

||yea ive only seen 2 eps so i wont make up my mind about it. but from ep 2 alone (since ep 1 was about something else) i feel the disconnection becuz what i loved about the show was it was just atlanta man and the characters around the city. europe is just a diff vibe. BUT one thing i can see the szn doing is its showing paper boi is changing too, like he becoming like the more mainstream rappers and more 'diva' like which kinda messes with earn too. not sure about how darius/val will facotr in doe|| szn 3 atlanta (only 2 eps)

[hoary hawk]

how was it?

[feral kettle]

I liked it alot

[hoary hawk]

thats literally been the general consensus online and irl haha

[feral kettle]

yea

ngl maverick and the first one have the same thing dragging them down

[hoary hawk]

tom cruise?

[feral kettle]

but its worse in this one

nah i love cruise

Top gun ||the romance subplots feel super forced||

[hoary hawk]

ok well

[nova zephyr]

i really feel like im tom cruise

[hoary hawk]

thats true in the first one at least

lmao

[feral kettle]

its way worse in 2

[hoary hawk]

i havent seen the second movie

[feral kettle]

my dad said ||its only purpose was to show his character is straight lil||

[hoary hawk]

but ||if its involving the only girl ive seen in the trailer then meh. if its about cruise then thats cringe||

[feral kettle]

i said long live tom cruise in my review

[hoary hawk]

||idk whats with enforcing pointless romance subplots in movies like this but i will say as a kid growing up watching top gun, his relationship with the girl was wild. still the main audience for these kinda movies dont care for stuff like that, we just wanna see jet woosh|| top gun

[nova zephyr]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PvUeUZ5PrJw

[feral kettle]

top gun ||the jets do in fact woosh much better in this one, the romance makes less sense but it has less screentime so take that as u will||

[outer tulip]

Top gun || the romance made zero sense… what was that bitch even doing at the beach anyway 🙄 ||

[feral kettle]

who was she???

😭

[outer tulip]

She’ll always be the mean chick from Charlie’s Angel to me

Jon Hamm was really good in this movie I felt

Honestly I really enjoyed the whole cast

[hoary hawk]

jon hamm?

mr mad man?

[feral kettle]

he was very good but i didnt like his character

i think you can tell who my favorite new addition is

[hoary hawk]

its morbin time

[outer tulip]

Yeahh

[outer tulip]

Which one?

[feral kettle]

hangman💪

[outer tulip]

Top gun maverick || ahh.. I didn’t like him until the very end haha ||

[feral kettle]

Top gun maverick ||yea he was a major asshole but his character was fun and he got humbled in the end||

[outer tulip]

Top Gun maverick || yeah he redeemed himself ||

[rigid rock]

Anyone watched stranger things szn 4 yet? Rate out of 10?

[hoary hawk]

i havent yet, still on szn3

but general consensus was that it was good

from ppl

[rigid rock]

Okkkk ima start it tonight then

[hoary hawk]

are u caught up?

[rigid rock]

Yeahh

But barely remember what happened last season so I hope there’s a recap

[hoary hawk]

there usually is

gonna finish atlanta szn 3 tonight

and then try to finish szn 3 of stranger things

[burnt lake]

Ugh s3 ST

[hoary hawk]

dw star

ill power thru it

for szn 4

but im rlly enjoying atlanta doe in the meantime

[modern lichen]

s3 of ST better than s2

[burnt lake]

Through the writing maybe but execution not at all

[feral kettle]

through both

[modern lichen]

through both ye

s2 is the worst by a mile

[burnt lake]

I disagree

[outer tulip]

This movies starting to get some real crossover success

[feral kettle]

3 more days

god im gonna get home so late that day

the movies at like 6

[rigid rock]

Kgf still better tho

RRR was great too don’t get me wrong

[outer tulip]

I asked Harsh about that movie and he told me not to worry about it

[rigid rock]

He said he didn’t even bother watching kgf chapter 1 or he didn’t like it, something like that

[modern lichen]

kgf 1 sucked ass

[jade siren]

oh shit ray liotta died 3 days ago

I didn't even see until now

rip

[modern lichen]

ye

[jade siren]

:grief:

goodfellas kinogoat

[modern lichen]

i watched kgf 2

slightly better than 1 but come on

[jade siren]

kgf

?

[modern lichen]

it doesnt compare to RRR

an indian movie, check the convo above

[jade siren]

ah ok

cool cool

[feral kettle]

yaa

my fav scorsese rn is taxi driver i think

[rigid rock]

The ||police scene in the beginning|| was godly but then idk it kinda went meh

[modern lichen]

no?

wtf

LMAO

[feral kettle]

what movie is this ab

kgf?

[rigid rock]

RRR

I watched both on big screens btw, rrr had more crowd

[modern lichen]

kgf 2 still suffered from shit editing and stuffy performances barring a few performances

the flow of the movie felt extremely weird

[rigid rock]

All hype

[modern lichen]

not really my dude

[rigid rock]

But the soundtracks plus camera work was insane

I’m no movie expert, only speaking from my experience

Hit me with that big paragraph harsh I’m ready

[modern lichen]

kgf 2 ||the romance subplot felt like a joke because rocky basically kept her at home as a captive and it just was so forced, a majority of the movie was bogged down by that, sanjay dutt was alright, raveena tandon and yash's dynamic was easily the best part of the movie, i'd say raveena tandon was the showstealer here but it still doesnt mitigate from the issues of having subpar flow and editing, the soundtrack is less blaring but again it just felt too aggressive and in your face||

[rigid rock]

I agree with most of this

[modern lichen]

the cinematography was good but shit was just a series of cool shots and no narrative flow, felt extremely janky

makes sense since a 19 year old dude edited the movie

[rigid rock]

RRR || the ending was kinda unbelievable tho, the way the Governor died, plus all them arrows which were faster than bullets apparently?||

[modern lichen]

RRR ||they didnt even load their guns there lmao||

[rigid rock]

[modern lichen]

RRR ||if you have people still reeling from shock with their guns out unloaded, a fast archer can just get you||

[rigid rock]

Still

[modern lichen]

still what lol

[rigid rock]

||Not a single scratch ?||

Or there was? Idk I don’t remember

But was hard to believe

[modern lichen]

what?

who are you talking about

[rigid rock]

I don’t even remember the movie that much to continue talking here so I respectfully withdraw

[modern lichen]

lmao

alright

[rigid rock]

Kgf was a level above imo. That’s it sir

[modern lichen]

good for you man lmfao

[crimson lance]

top gun 2 || She was the admiral's daughter from the first movie, never seen only mentioned that he slept with her. they didn't bring back the previous love interest because she's 60 and looks like it ||

[modern lichen]

?

oh

right

[feral kettle]

both ass

could shave time off both movies

[crimson lance]

youre right about it being weird in the second one but || he needed someone to mourn him like they talked about, he was alone and fine with dying. i just wish they wrote an actual character for her ||

top gun 2

[outer tulip]

🤷‍♂️

[modern lichen]

LMAO

[feral kettle]

the last jedi is so good

[modern lichen]

its ok

[hoary hawk]

u think so?

[crimson lance]

[feral kettle]

2nd

[hoary hawk]

2nd

[outer tulip]

not the last jedi

[feral kettle]

ya

[crimson lance]

ah

[feral kettle]

only sequel that feels original

[crimson lance]

ive only seen the original starwars and the first 2 sequels

[modern lichen]

none of the sequel films are better than "good"

[crimson lance]

the rest is non existant to me

[hoary hawk]

why didnt u watch

the 3rd one

[feral kettle]

TLJ is sadly great

[outer tulip]

the 3rd one is the best

[crimson lance]

because i dont like starwars

[feral kettle]

tfa is bad and tros is terrible

[hoary hawk]

but

[feral kettle]

nah u gotta stop

[hoary hawk]

its the best one

[modern lichen]

the 3rd prequel is the best one ye

[hoary hawk]

^

[outer tulip]

but if you really like TLJ you'd wanna watch the third lol

[crimson lance]

i said sequel btw

[modern lichen]

attack of the clones sucked ass

[feral kettle]

its disappointing

[hoary hawk]

so

[feral kettle]

i like aotc its fun

[hoary hawk]

what do u mean

by original starwars

[feral kettle]

revenge of the sith is also fun

[hoary hawk]

the 70s or 00s

[feral kettle]

70s

[crimson lance]

the first movie

[fallen oak]

I only cared for 4, 5, 6

[crimson lance]

not a sequel or a prequel but the first one

[hoary hawk]

[outer tulip]

me too i love AOTC

[hoary hawk]

the prequel?

[crimson lance]

[hoary hawk]

oh

[feral kettle]

6 is lowkey not as good as the other 2

[crimson lance]

ive only seen 3/9 movies

[outer tulip]

Will watch the prequels

[fallen oak]

Prequels aren't bad

[outer tulip]

like tonight

[crimson lance]

no 👍

[feral kettle]

haha i know

ur pfp

[modern lichen]

prequels suck overall

[crimson lance]

the most interesting thing about star wars is the video games

[feral kettle]

nahh

[modern lichen]

but they had their moments

[outer tulip]

i've only played fallen order

[hoary hawk]

prequels are whatever and the sequels definitely suck

clone wars is where its at

[modern lichen]

at least they had an overarching story and planning

[feral kettle]

i like prequels over sequels cuz they actually feel like

[outer tulip]

clone wars is the best

[feral kettle]

they are something

they have a vision

jj js such a hack

[hoary hawk]

ye jj is a hack

[modern lichen]

jj is not the problem

[fallen oak]

Disney ruined everything

[feral kettle]

He is a problem

[hoary hawk]

nah

[modern lichen]

its the fuckin lucasfilm planing team

[hoary hawk]

jj was def a problem

in the prequels

he wanted it to be "different"

[modern lichen]

prequels?

[outer tulip]

Rian was a problem

[hoary hawk]

oops

[feral kettle]

nah

[glacial jetty]

theres multiple problems lol

[feral kettle]

rian was great

[glacial jetty]

it doesnt all come down to one person

[feral kettle]

TLJ is visually the best star wars film

[outer tulip]

Kathleen's going to get fired soon

cause she wants Rian for Acolytes

[fallen oak]

It comes down to politics and big corporations I'd say

[modern lichen]

it came down to the lucasfilm story planning team

[crimson lance]

the last jedi || is this the one with the fight againts all those red storm troopers ||

[feral kettle]

george lucas likes TLJ the best too🤷‍♂️

[hoary hawk]

lucas is the problem****

[feral kettle]

uh i think so

[glacial jetty]

yeh

[crimson lance]

yeah that shit was ugly

that scene at least

[feral kettle]

star wars is the problem

[feral kettle]

???

[glacial jetty]

the sequels have excelled at cinematography if nothing else

they always look beautiful

[feral kettle]

only last jedi :/

[hoary hawk]

any series that ranges over 50 years and has fanbases from so many diff generations/demographics is going to have a lot of haters

[glacial jetty]

even if the plot is shit

[hoary hawk]

and problems

[feral kettle]

star wars fans are

[hoary hawk]

like peoples expectations are different

[feral kettle]

a different breed

[hoary hawk]

depending on when u was born

[outer tulip]

they're built diff

[hoary hawk]

and what ur first movie was

[modern lichen]

fuck star wars

[feral kettle]

star wars is dead

ngl

[outer tulip]

[hoary hawk]

[hoary hawk]

star wars still pulls

[glacial jetty]

star wars has been lukewarm for a while now yee

[feral kettle]

1 million viewers

[hoary hawk]

and then a "windu" show

[feral kettle]

Andor does look promising

[modern lichen]

fate btw riverdale ending with season 7 apparently

[feral kettle]

the visuals were wayy better than every orher show

[glacial jetty]

maybe they'll fast forward a couple hundred years

[outer tulip]

we are getting a series (or video game) about prequels characters

[glacial jetty]

and do something fresh

[hoary hawk]

harsh arent they shutting down

[feral kettle]

they need tk explore a new era

[hoary hawk]

every cw show

[outer tulip]

like qui gon and windu

[glacial jetty]

[feral kettle]

its just been 3-4 era and 6-7 era

[outer tulip]

i think its an animated series

[hoary hawk]

didnt they get acquired by some company

[modern lichen]

[hoary hawk]

and shutting down

all super hero shows

and the bad shows

[crimson lance]

[feral kettle]

like a new time period

[outer tulip]

i hope its good

[modern lichen]

watch superman and lois fate its so good

[feral kettle]

is acolyte rhe first one?

[hoary hawk]

i heard its their only good thing

[outer tulip]

you should read light of the jedi

[hoary hawk]

but superman and lois will suffer

from the same fate

of degrading in quality

[modern lichen]

its an HBO coproduction

[hoary hawk]

what happened to stargirl btw

werent people hyped about szn 1

[modern lichen]

it hasnt suffered from anything imo

[feral kettle]

i tried to follow rhe high republic stuff but there were so many books

[modern lichen]

s2 is just as good as s1

[feral kettle]

i really hope we get a trilogy

[outer tulip]

books and comics... I kept up with the books but not comics.. the comics are better though

[feral kettle]

loll

[outer tulip]

Kathleens going to ruin the tv series

[hoary hawk]

btw

have they announced if theyre gonna replace

ezra miller

[feral kettle]

i dont think kathleen does that much

[hoary hawk]

or is he still flash

[modern lichen]

stargirl has been renewed for s3 @hoary hawk

[feral kettle]

lucas films directions been pretty shit but i blame alot of the problems on the directors

[outer tulip]

she literally said she doesn't care about Star Wars

[feral kettle]

lol did she

thats funny

[modern lichen]

when

she is pretty involved in the star wars celebration going on now

[feral kettle]

so many shows

😵‍💫

[hoary hawk]

yea

too many shows

[outer tulip]

she is cause she's pres but she said it in some press thing earlier in the year she doesn't care about it

[hoary hawk]

d+ just marvel and sw

[feral kettle]

entire purpose of d+ is for me to watch an episode a week and get disappointed

cuz i dont use it for anything else

[hoary hawk]

rlly?

[feral kettle]

nah lol

[hoary hawk]

oh

well moonknight didnt impress me

[outer tulip]

i dont use it for anythign else either

[modern lichen]

What's the source on this

[feral kettle]

same

hbo max is the best platform

[hoary hawk]

fx is the best platform

[feral kettle]

didnt even know that existed

[crimson lance]

probably nothing star wars fans love to make shit up about her

[feral kettle]

anyways so many movies coming out too

i think i need to get amc a list

[crimson lance]

a list is such a good deal if you see more than 1 movie a month

its like 5$ more than 1 ticket per month, and you get 12 tickets per month instead

[outer tulip]

I'll have to find it but I was watching Star Wars Theory react to her comment on it

[feral kettle]

if j had a list id see like 4 a month at least

like bullet train thor and elvis coming out soon

[crimson lance]

Im going to see crimes of the future this month and hopefully RRR

[feral kettle]

crimes of the future

[crimson lance]

might watch bad guys or some other shit too just to use my tickets

[feral kettle]

i saw a trailer for a david bowie doc which id watch

uhh

i have to catch up on some stuff like Men and Ambulance

[modern lichen]

I'm pretty sure it's something out of context that rabid star Wars nerds will try to blame on her

[feral kettle]

lol

prob

[modern lichen]

Star Wars is Lucasfilms biggest cash cow lmao

[crimson lance]

Ambulance is cool but don't go unless you get a list, you could see something better for 12$

[outer tulip]

I mean yeah she might've said something about still learning about star wars and people took it out of context

[feral kettle]

thats the plan

[hoary hawk]

What about elvis

[feral kettle]

i mentioned elvis

[modern lichen]

Heard it's ok

[feral kettle]

my dad likes baz luhrmann

[crimson lance]

yeah im going to see elvis, looks cool

[feral kettle]

the bad elvis reviews make it sound good

[hoary hawk]

ive likes the trailer

[crimson lance]

alot of people are upset with the movie which makes it seem cooler

[hoary hawk]

yea agreed

[modern lichen]

Gotta say, 2022 has been a great year for films

[feral kettle]

“most visually chaotic movie since speed racer” yea sigh me up hro

[modern lichen]

[modern lichen]

"northman movie of the year"

[feral kettle]

top gun is like top 5

everything everywhere, the batman, and rhe northman are above it

[crimson lance]

top gun 2 probably the best "generic" action movie this year

[feral kettle]

PLANESS

[outer tulip]

[feral kettle]

2022 is so stacked

[hoary hawk]

[feral kettle]

Men

[crimson lance]

well i might see it, but i have no real interest

[hoary hawk]

in black?

[feral kettle]

i like the director

[hoary hawk]

why is it named just men

[crimson lance]

only thing interesting is the lead lady was in a good movie before

[outer tulip]

for Amc Stubs you can

[feral kettle]

idk

[crimson lance]

its about men being evil

[feral kettle]

i have stubs

[crimson lance]

men are the topic

[feral kettle]

but not a list

[hoary hawk]

well that parts true

will women watch men?

[feral kettle]

its about you specifically

[outer tulip]

ofcourse they will

[feral kettle]

its a feminist type movie i heard

[crimson lance]

man i wished i saw Dual when it was out

[feral kettle]

thats kind of alex garlands trade

[crimson lance]

its from the guy who made The art of self defence

[feral kettle]

ex machina and annhilation

[modern lichen]

Feminist type movie 😭😭

Dawg

[feral kettle]

IT ISSS

[hoary hawk]

i love feminist movies

[outer tulip]

never heard of a feminist type move

what a feminist movie?

[crimson lance]

Of course you havent

[feral kettle]

bruh i havent seen it

[hoary hawk]

ghostbusters women version

[feral kettle]

its just a movie that has a femjnist message

[hoary hawk]

U ever seen it?

[feral kettle]

its not a bad thing

im jusr describing it😭

[modern lichen]

Annihilation is not a "feminist type movie" tho

[outer tulip]

I know but I couldn't think of one

[feral kettle]

i havent seen that one

[outer tulip]

Hidden Figures is a feminist movie

[feral kettle]

bur someone told me it is

so i went with it

ex machina definitely is tho

[modern lichen]

Who gives a shit, if it's a good movie it's a good movie

Is it?

[hoary hawk]

what’s a men empowerment movie, fast and furious?

[feral kettle]

cuz rhe theme of the movie matters

[crimson lance]

the northman

batman

everything everywhere

[outer tulip]

any movie where the guy is a mc

[feral kettle]

not as a quality thing but

themes

yk

[hoary hawk]

so basically Vikings or dark superheroes

[modern lichen]

Ex Machina definitely seems like it's just more than "feminism" tho

[crimson lance]

peanuts

[feral kettle]

yea i know

[crimson lance]

this is the perfect time to peanut post since youre all stuck here talking about feminism or something

[modern lichen]

Right lol

Fuck off

[hoary hawk]

[crimson lance]

[feral kettle]

[modern lichen]

[outer tulip]

DM it to me.. i need to know

[feral kettle]

no

[outer tulip]

I love controversial takes

[hoary hawk]

it’s prob he hates Jurassic park

which isn’t really controversial

[crimson lance]

its just going to be something like he doesn't like goldblum or the original 3 movies

[feral kettle]

😅

[modern lichen]

Yeah shit opinion time

[feral kettle]

3 > 2 > 1

🤷‍♂️

[modern lichen]

Oh lord

[crimson lance]

yeah that's weird but not that bad

[outer tulip]

I asked you not to !

[hoary hawk]

wait we haven’t discussed this but what’s y’all’s opinion of bullet train it looks trash to me

[feral kettle]

it looks fun

[crimson lance]

looks like an insurance commercial

[hoary hawk]

But I see the trailer every time I go theaters

[feral kettle]

it has actors i like

[modern lichen]

The Brad Pitt movie?

[hoary hawk]

and I love the sound track

[crimson lance]

yeah

[feral kettle]

i like brad pitt

i like paper boi

[modern lichen]

I don't care about it

[crimson lance]

bradd pitt's on a train in japan i think

[feral kettle]

i like zazie

my dad wants to see it so ill see it

[outer tulip]

I'll end up seeing the bullet train movie

eventually

[hoary hawk]

but it just seems brad Pitt in a future japanese dystopia pandering to the current love for Japanese stuff on a bullet train

I however LOVE the sound track

but then again why brad Pitt

[proper flare]

speaking of brad pitt, havent heard anything from super mario live action

[crimson lance]

Bullet train || https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UgTPhaNQTWg || the first 10 seconds of this just look so boring and like a comercial

[modern lichen]

It has been delayed and it's not live action

[hoary hawk]

I see the whole movie in the trailer

what am I missing by not watching the movie

[outer tulip]

yeah

the plot is all there

[crimson lance]

Brad pitt is too cool for this role

[modern lichen]

Fuck all that, Mission Impossible

[crimson lance]

He should be out doing good things

[outer tulip]

you're basically watching it for the action sequences

[modern lichen]

Gimme more Mission Impossible

[outer tulip]

yes

[hoary hawk]

he should learn from a real actor like Tom cruise

Am I right boys

[outer tulip]

they showed the new trailer during top gun

[proper flare]

MI boring without tom cruise

[modern lichen]

....

Well

Yeah

[outer tulip]

I mean

[hoary hawk]

Tom cruise is MI

[outer tulip]

what is MI without tom cruise?

[feral kettle]

nothing

[proper flare]

exactly

[modern lichen]

Without Cruise there's no MI lmao

[hoary hawk]

yea it’s a moot point

[feral kettle]

cruise is the goat

[hoary hawk]

u tryna do bourne without Damon?

[outer tulip]

ok ready?

[crimson lance]

ive only seen one mission impossible, might watch the others to see the new one

[feral kettle]

didnt they

lol

[outer tulip]

cruise vs keanu?

[feral kettle]

cruise easily

[glacial jetty]

in a fight?

[feral kettle]

as an actor

i like keanu but hes not oscar worthy

[hoary hawk]

isn’t keanu like 10000x more loved in Hollywood compared to cruise who is loathed for being a Scientologist

lmao

[outer tulip]

actor, roles and their movies

[hoary hawk]

like as a human I prefer keanu

[feral kettle]

yea

[crimson lance]

tom cruise's hate is literally random people

[feral kettle]

but cruise is more talented

[crimson lance]

alot of hollywood doesnt care or are scientologist themselves

[hoary hawk]

isn’t everyone’s hate random people

[outer tulip]

tom cruise hate is actually a thing and its weird

[crimson lance]

peanuts

[feral kettle]

i mean hes weird for beint a scientologist but he could be alot worse

[proper flare]

is it because keanu didnt do stun himself like cruise?

[glacial jetty]

he's a bit of a weirdo for sure

[feral kettle]

nah cruise just has better emotional acting

like magnolia

[crimson lance]

Being a scientologist is literally the worse thing he's done, but he's cool so it cancels out

[feral kettle]

his performance in magnolia is excellent

[outer tulip]

but he plays a weirdo in his movies...

[hoary hawk]

Yea but keanu is just loved more than everyone not just cruise

[modern lichen]

Cruise is a better actor

Keanu is a better person

[hoary hawk]

But cruise is a better actor yes

[feral kettle]

keanu is a good action actor

hes not an amazing actor

[hoary hawk]

keanu is more of a meme actor now unironically

[modern lichen]

Keanu is fine, his John Wick performances are great

[feral kettle]

both are cool in my book

[modern lichen]

Especially that first one

[feral kettle]

john wick movies fit his style of acting more

[hoary hawk]

or matrix

[feral kettle]

they were pretty much tailored to him ngl

i like constantine

its not a great movie but its fun asf

[hoary hawk]

the show?

it was good

[feral kettle]

nah keanu

[hoary hawk]

but cancelled too early

oh

[feral kettle]

is anyone gonna watch barbie

[hoary hawk]

[feral kettle]

oh fuck yea

[modern lichen]

I am, it's Gerwig

[crimson lance]

[proper flare]

nah

whats good about it

[crimson lance]

barbie most anticipated movie of 2023

[hoary hawk]

I’m so confused by the trailer

[feral kettle]

barbie is gonna be so good

[hoary hawk]

for nope

[feral kettle]

gerwig is a great writer

[feral kettle]

yea i feel like it’s intentionally confusing

[feral kettle]

good director and a good cast

[hoary hawk]

Is it bexuz of Margot Robbie and her twin that looks like her from sex education?

[crimson lance]

i just know you're going to have a margot robbie pfp a year from now

[feral kettle]

[hoary hawk]

yea that’s a poop thing

[crimson lance]

her and greta gerwig

yeah

[feral kettle]

i almost did when the poster dropped

like a month ago

[hoary hawk]

Idek what the movie will be about

does Barbie have lore

or is it just a name

[feral kettle]

i think its gonna be like

meta

[crimson lance]

she has tons of lore

she's done like every job in the canon

[hoary hawk]

so who’s ken

[feral kettle]

william has seen every barbie movie

[feral kettle]

ryan gosling

[proper flare]

ngl she looks fine here

[hoary hawk]

u a big Barbie guy?

[feral kettle]

but also 2 other actors

theres 3 barbie actors and 3 ken actors so far

[hoary hawk]

wait they made gosling ken and Margot Robbie barbie?

[feral kettle]

ya

[hoary hawk]

that is the most perfect casting ever
