  1. Now I'm feeling like I need to work "Admiral Hunter" into every post that I make.
  2. Had we this community back when Armageddon came out, a good chunk of the people on the forum would have been loving all over it. Even if I don't always comment, I dip into every movie thread on this forum. I know what you guys like and don't like, don't kid yourselves.
  3. Except he's not done being an Avenger, because Infinity War. And you can't go from him being done at the end of 3 to showing up in Ultron without a single word. You shouldn't need headcanon here; it was sloppy storytelling.
  4. "Robinson Crusoe on Mars" is a classic. I absolutely love it.
  5. Because he's essentially done at the end of 3, and he comes back with no explanation. Then he's done again at the end of Ultron, but we already know he's back for Civil War and Infinity War.
  6. You can look at the Trek writing credits, his name isn't among them. The usual suspects of shite writing are on the Trek credits. You know who's name is on TFA writing credits? Lawrence Kasdan's (along with Abrams).Abrams also excells at getting good performances out of his cast.
  7. Yeah, Ultron isn't a bad movie by any stretch, but if I were making recommendations it would be Ex Machina all the way. Some movies deserve to get crapped on. Ultron isn't one of them (though, it does deserve some criticism).
  8. I'll add another: Alex Garland - Ex Machina Q&A Host Jeff Goldsmith interviews writer-director Alex Garland about Ex Machina on "The Q&A with Jeff Goldsmith" podcast. Spoilers, of course.
  9. Beat me to it. After Winter Soldier it really seemed like they were firing on all cylinders, but after Ultron (including this Civil War news), it's starting to look like the wheels are going to come off the bus.
  10. The entire teaser is all CG. Wake me up when they show some actual footage.
  11. Ok, finally saw this today. First off, no Star Wars teaser, but instead got a Batman v Superman trailer. TOTAL FAIL. Anyway, the movie, it was definitely entertaining--and even good--but not as good as the first one. It seemed like a much longer movie crammed into a smaller space. Ultron as a character was silly. His personality seemed way out of place. For the entire cast, many of the quips and jokes seemed off; right intent, but wrong line or delivery. Also, the dream sequence stuff was silly and unneeded, we know who these people are. And what was with that shoehorned Banner/Widow romance? Dafuq did that come from? Oh, and didn't Tony Stark "quit" at the end of Iron Man 3? And he quits again here? Well, until Civil War, lol. But hey, I liked it, though. And I kept getting this vibe from it like Marvel was showing DC how to do a proper Superman movie, if you catch my meaning.
  12. Cut the show down to just its intro, and it'd be perfect. Too short, you say? Ok, well, you I suppose you could cut it down to "Fleet of the Strongest Women" and it would still be pretty good.
  13. Bounty hunters are cool. He was mysterious. His outfit was cool. His voice was cool. His ship was cool. He had a rocket pack. Then RotJ happened. (The prequels don't exist for me any more, so IDGAF about AotC). Now, if this anthology film can establish him as a Mandalorian, he'll totally be cool again.
  14. Business as usual, minus Kojima. The stock exchange thing really isn't news at all.
  15. Working in gaming on the development side is murderous.
  16. Um, no? We're talking about video games and how businesses operate.
  17. I wasn't trolling at all, with any of it. I stand by everything I said.
  18. So the show finally brought R+L=J to the screen, and in a big way. I wonder how many show watchers caught it?
  19. Generally speaking, I don't believe in ore-ordering or buying expansion passes. If the game is that good I can afford to buy DLC as it comes without the discount.
