- Comment on ‘Pacific Rim’ TV Series From Legendary, Eric Heisserer Lands at Amazon for Development (EXCLUSIVE) 14 hours ago:
I really enjoyed the first movie. I fear that the show is going to be more of the same of the second movie.
- Comment on Are there any Trek episodes where they enforce the Prime Directive to protect a developing world within Federation space from an external influence? 1 day ago:
I always felt that they only mentioned the Prime Directive when they were going to violate it
- Comment on Borderlands film director blames flop on Zoom and Covid 1 day ago:
I watched all of Madame Web. I couldn’t get through 20 minutes of Borderlands.
- Comment on Liz Truss to launch ‘uncensored’ social network to counter mainstream media 2 days ago:
It might be fun to sign up and then just post unhinged stuff and see what it takes to get banned.
- Comment on Liz Truss to launch ‘uncensored’ social network to counter mainstream media 2 days ago:
Wet paper towels can be helpful though.
- Comment on History is rewritten by victors. How can I find books about actual history? 3 weeks ago:
It’s the primary mission of pretty all colonizing societies - destroy the sources and you destroy a cultures collective memory.
- Comment on "I Was So Surprised and Shocked": Shohreh Aghdashloo on How Devoted 'Expanse' Fans Manifested Her Casting in 'The Wheel of Time' Season 3 3 weeks ago:
Season one is garbage. I gave up halfway through then picked it back up after S2 started.
It’s been a lot better and the deviations from the books have been well thought out and make sense.
Her character, though, is really one dimensional so far - scheming, plotting, do anything to get her way. Like pretty much all the other Aes Sedai, just with less charisma.

I’m not sure I’d even pirate this

- Comment on The creator of upcoming life sim Inzoi says he was "recklessly brave to even think about creating a game of this scale" 5 weeks ago:
What do giant radishes have to do with anything?
- Comment on A Fifth John Wick Will Happen, Come Hell or High Water 5 weeks ago:
Maybe it’ll be about his secret twin sister, Jane Wax.
- Comment on Disney Scales Back 'Snow White' Premiere Amid Zegler, Gadot Controversies 5 weeks ago:
The only thing I got from this is Peter Dinklage is a good guy.
I had zero interest in watching this movie before and that’s been reinforced by this article.
The Disneyholics will support it like they always do and the constant stream of rehash will continue unabated.
- Comment on Utah Senator Mike Lee Introduces Bills to Value and Audit Federal Spectrum Use 1 month ago:
What’s nice is that as soon as you know Mike Lee is behind some legislation, you automatically know it’s garbage.
- Comment on 2025 Razzie Award Winners: Madame Web, Megalopolis, Joker 2, Unfrosted 1 month ago:
I was able to watch all of Madame Web. I couldn’t get through 20 minutes of Borderlands.
I think piling on Sony is just a thing now.
- Comment on why do transphobes mention pedophiles/compare them to pedophiles when most trans people (as do most people) hate pedophiles? 1 month ago:
Also, pedophiles are not all child molesters and vice versa.
In fact, most child abusers are not pedophiles. They victimize children not because they are children but because they are easy prey.
It’s about the power and control. If their victims weren’t children, they’d be called sociopaths or psychopaths.
Pedophilia can be easily treated but because of hate-mongers who have conflated these two things, many fear they’ll be arrested if they seek help. Even if they’ve never done anything wrong. Some do become abusers because they feel like they have no safe way of dealing with their feelings.
Trying to equate LGBTQ to pedophilia is using misinformation and lies to hurt and scare.
It’s the ultimate in hate and ignorance.

Robbie Reyes Ghost Rider, of course.
- Comment on Master Replicas Reveals New Line of Star Trek Action Figures 2 months ago:
I saw it. It is mildly terrifying. Those eyes…I wouldn’t be able to sleep with it in my room.
Tendi as an Orion pirate would have been a nice one.
- Comment on Master Replicas Reveals New Line of Star Trek Action Figures 2 months ago:
No Rutherford or T’Lyn?
- Comment on Doordash deserves it's fate 2 months ago:
So, you’re a homophobe? Transphobe?
I ask that of everyone who says they spend money at CFA.
- Comment on 2025 Razzie nominations [Full List]: 'Joker 2' up for Worst Picture, Lady Gaga & Joaquin Phoenix nab nods for Worst Actor & Actress 2 months ago:
Of that list, I’ve only watched Madame Web. It was awful but I did get through it.
I started watching Borderlands and only got through 20 minutes before I shut it off.
I had no interest in any of the rest so I can’t speak to their quality.
- Comment on ADL defends Nazi salute 2 months ago:
It used to be Anti-Defamation League but it’s looking more like AIPAC Defense League.
- Comment on UK ‘one of world’s least work-oriented countries’ claims BrewDog founder - as he slams obsession with 'work-life balance' 2 months ago:
I think it’s pretty obvious. The moment you start treating people as resources, putting policy over people, you’ve declared that you have little to no empathy and place little value on human life, aside from your own.
- Comment on The Academy says that ‘Madame Web’ is not eligible to be nominated for Best Picture at the Oscars 3 months ago:
There was a soundtrack? There was music when the fugitives were table dancing but my attention was focused elsewhere.
So, probably not awful.
Soundtrack wasn’t awful and attractive people to look at.
Maybe not best picture but maybe some award for Sydneys hero suit?
- Comment on The Academy says that ‘Madame Web’ is not eligible to be nominated for Best Picture at the Oscars 3 months ago:
If you ignore the minor problems with the movie - writing, acting, vfx, and editing - it’s quite good.
- Comment on 'Baldur's Gate 3': Patch 8 Will Get TWELVE New Subclasses In 2025 4 months ago:
I’ve downloaded a bunch of dice skins and subclasses. I’ve yet to actually finish the game bc I keep changing mods.
I like the mystic class I just played. Just started a new one with an Astral Weaver.
I’m using party size mod and double xp mod but upped the difficulty and installed a mod that ups enemy stats if the party exceeds 5 people.
I’ve actually got over a dozen mods installed - mostly QoL mods and cosmetic.
- Comment on KRAVEN THE HUNTER - Opening 8 Minutes 4 months ago:
I get free passes from work so I’ll go see this in theatres. Preferably, late night with few other people.
It caught my eye but not my wallet. Though I might splurge at the concession stand a little.
- Comment on According to the Wall Street Journal, "Wicked" Parts One and Two cost $320 million ($160 million per film). Both parts were shot back-to-back. 4 months ago:
Ahem. Cats.
