  1. So does Optimus Prime become Primal or is Primal a totally different bot like in regular Transformers continuity? Is this set after the Marky-Mark films or after the Bumblebee solo movie? I'm so confused, I thought Bumblebee was getting a sequel and Bay was done with this franchise.
  2. Starfield looks insanely epic, I'm hyped! It's a really ambitious looking game, only thing I'm worried about is performance. Even on the newer Series S and X hardware Bethesda games are known for being rough at launch, I can't imagine Starfield will be any different, if anything, with it's scale, probably worse. Hopefully all those delays helped and it's mostly smooth at launch, the game looks phenomenal!
  3. This looks far, far, far more interesting then every Predator sequel since the second movie, I'm pretty excited. I read there's a Comanche dub, but the movie was filmed in English so I'm not too sure how that will look, I may just stick with English if it looks too off-putting with the Comanche track.
  4. Resident Evil isn't really a "zombie" series, there's zombies in it, yes, but it's not like it's Walking Dead or a Romero of the Dead film. Zombies are just another BOW in the RE universe, most games in the series don't even feature them, so I've never considered the Jovovich series a "zombie" series, those are just bad action movies with lots of monsters. I think they switched to a rip-off Las Plagas in the third film, they were zombie-ish but opened their heads up like Las Plagas and Oroboros infected. I'm in, because I have Netflix and have played and enjoyed every RE game since the first game in the series, but I'm utterly confused by the timeline and continuity. This isn't a reboot series, apparently this is a sequel to the game universe continuity and timeline, but it's a non-canon sequel. So the games happened in this universe, not the newer crappy Raccoon City movie or the Jovovich movies, but the actual Capcom game timeline, but Wesker died in Resident Evil 5 in a volcano. So Wesker is alive, has children, Raccoon City is being rebuilt, people still trust or now have a renewed trust in Umbrella, and Wesker is black?
  5. This actually looks pretty cool, much better then most of the previous films. I think the only newer Predator sequel I liked was with Adrien Brody and Topher Grace, the last one with Rick Flag was beyond god awful, that crap was unapologetically bad.
  6. Shoresy was short, but an easy 10/10 for me, hot damn what a hilarious show. Keeso made him into a full fledged character, not just the one-note mother frakking chirp-master he was on Letterkenny. Highly recommended, only 6 episode and they go fast, but it's a fun little ride, easily one of the greatest hockey-based shows or films I've ever seen, up there with the best for sure like Goon and Enforcer.
  7. Either Vader was Worfed or he is just relishing the chase and the final vengeance over Obi-Wan, and so doesn't mind him getting away a time or two. Doesn't really jive, I know, seeing how it has taken ten years just to get to him again, but there you have it. That's the only way I can interpret it as well, Vader is fine with some cat and mouse now that Obi is flushed out, otherwise he could've and should've just walked through the fire to grab him back. Couldn't he have just force grabbed him again as well?
  8. Damn this looks really good, and dumb, I'm in! Now just bring King of the Hill back.
  9. I managed to get the Forbidden West set off Amazon, arrived last night. I wanted to get it off lego.com so I could get and possibly use some points but oh well, lego.com seems to not be getting stock as quickly as some other sites, which is a bit odd. I just need someone, anyone, to get more Deloreans in at retail price.
  10. Price is better then expected, but still an easy pass for me, Phoenix is perfectly sufficient, this isn't doing anything extraordinary over that figure.
  11. Anyone catch the first episode of the new "Horizons" Hulu season? I really liked it, pretty long too, it was a nice start for the new season. I'm pretty happy to see it's business as usual, you just get right back into this universe and feel you haven't missed a beat, everyone is there and yes, there's a nice little tribute to Norm Macdonald right in the beginning. I am a bit bummed it's one episode per week, I should've expected it, Hulu's bigger originals like Handmaids Tale follow that format, I was just hoping it would get dumped at once like some of the animated stuff like Hit Monkey and Animaniacs. Oh well, I've got something new to look forward to every week, it's still a really fun show with some great characters.
  12. I feel Mando gets to have his cake and eat it too so to speak. He's not a returning character so he's not really beholden to strict continuity, and yet he gets to interact with the big name legacy characters like Luke and Ahsoka, he's still firmly in the "bigger picture". It doesn't hurt that the whole wandering cowboy/Lone Wolf and Cub thing just works really well, the whole space cowboy thing was what I would've expected from a Boba show before Mandalorian happened. Poor Boba, they just didn't really know what to do with him besides bring him back and get him back in his armor.
  13. It's a bummer this series is so divisive, it should've been a smash hit, no-brainer easy win for Disney+. Unfortunately I said the same about Book of Boba, and while not terrible, and I don't think Obi-Wan is terrible either, both series have been pretty disappointing overall.
  14. One day, some day, possibly on my deathbed, I'll have Mezco One:12 89 Batman in hand. Any updates on Ghost Rider? I've had him on PO for quite a while now as well, looks fantastic, I want him to finish off my Mezco One:12 Marvel Knights.
  15. MP Skyfire? Easy pass, FT Phoenix is easily one of my favorite third party figures ever, and definitely one of my favorite MP figures in my entire collection. Looks pretty much like Phoenix, with more articulation, more accessories to stay in the box forever, and I'm sure, a hefty price tag.
  16. There was meaningful discussion to be had complaining about a children's movie that featured characters starting a family?
  17. I really liked this movie, IMO, best game adaptation film ever, passing the original MK film for me.
  18. I'm enjoying it for the most part, last night's episode had some pretty good stuff, but there's no denying there's some odd story beats and beyond questionable decisions being made. Also, at this point, agreed, trying to fit a show in 2022 into continuity with a movie from the 70s is proving a tricky task, there's too many things we're expected to just accept and roll with. It's pretty goofy that fans are now dissecting Vader's lines from ANH to see if everything fits and makes sense, now we're also expected to believe Leia had a whole adventure with "Ben", and had a close encounter with an inquisitor. I guess if she never mentioned it in ANH doesn't mean it didn't happen, it's just getting harder to believe she wouldn't have mentioned any of that now that we're seeing how close she actually was to all of this jedi and sith stuff.
  19. I'm still a bit baffled some of you guys are getting weirded out about Gadget and Zipper, I mean, thinking about living cartoons procreating at all is frakking weird. Then there's the rabbit-hole of interspecies, I guess, relationships. Live action people with cartoons, you know that's a thing too.
  20. Lego Optimus ordered! I was a bit worried this morning because I forgot this dropped today, but at 10am Vegas time lego.com still had stock, that's awesome! If only the same had happened with the Delorean...

    Hi-Metal R

    I grabbed mine at BBTS, they offer $4 flat rate shipping, and I order a ton of stuff from them, I'll ship my 0S out with a bunch of other items, I don't mind the markup for the convenience.
  22. I'm thinking Reva knowing Anakin is Vader will be incredibly circumstantial. I'm guessing she was a youngling at the temple when 66 went down, obviously knew of and had seen the great Anakin and Obi-Wan, and while the attack is happening sees "Anakin" on his holo answering The Emperor or a clone commander as Vader. Then, sometime later, Vader makes his appearance proper, in armor. I'm wondering if anyone else, Vader included, knows that she knows the truth.
  23. Wow, only 67, that's way too young. Holy crap, what an absolute legend. Obviously yes, Goodfellas, but so much more, even his rolls in crappy films like Wild Hogs were really fun, not to mention I grew up with him in GTA Vice City. He was great in Many Saints of Newark on HBO recently, what an icon, RIP Ray, you were in one of the best films ever made IMO, and you entertained many.
  24. I didn't know the Cobra Kai kid was cast as Reyes, that's solid casting and works for me, I'm in.
