    The music choice wasn't bad, but I wish they used the exact soundtrack ("Anakin's Betrayal" for those with the Ep 3 soundtrack). To paraphrase a YT comment, Order 66 never felt as bad until Clone Wars gave the clones personalities and watching it now really drives a nail into the heart.

    Looks ok, but good gawd, the stuttering....
  3. azrael
    Figured it was. There was a certain fluidity to the scene which can only be done by really people, i.e. mo-cap.

    They are much farther along than I thought, running parallel to Episode 3 so yeah, it will be interesting how the next 2 episodes play out.

    I know...kids these days and their Discord-Tik-Tokin-whipper snappers...

    I actually have a 2018 Macbook Air for a work laptop, supplementing my work desktop. Honestly, I don't mind the 2 Thunderbolt 3 USB-C ports. I haven't run into a situation where I actually need both ports active. It's lightweight, has a work-suitable screen and resolution (bonus points for being a 16:10 screen). Processor is fine for what I use it for. I would definitely trade it for a better keyboard, but I haven't had at situation where I've had to push this little thing that hard. iGPUs are good enough for every day tasks of web, email, or media consumption where you don't need a discrete graphics card. A Ryzen 4900HS vs a i5-1060NG7 is a hands-down win for Ryzen. But that's comparing 2 different classes of CPUs. The Ryzen is a 35W TDP designed for all-around use cases while the i5 is a 10W TDP designed for low wattage systems. Back to the thread at hand, I'm working at home currently so gaming is pretty much a no-go for a while.

    At least Fallen Order was a good game.

    Neal Adams-ish and very Year 1-ish. Hopefully the black...tank comes in the next movie.

    Yeah. You don't want to hear me rant about this...AGAIN. Game developers all think their customers all have gigabit internet or have the funds to get gigabit internet.

    Just to back up my statement, exhibit A from November 2019 Lucasfilm’s Kathleen Kennedy on ‘Rise of Skywalker’ and the Future of ‘Star Wars’ There's literally a treasure trove of material from pre-Disney, but you know, it's pre-Disney. Pre-people-with-actual-imaginations.

    They're not necessarily making more movies. They're making their own books to make movies out of. Cuz KOTOR and all the pre-Disney stuff are taboo Legends.

    They say it because it looks like 2 halves of a gun handle. Also, they note this from the comics:

    I kept wondering where they got that idea for the Bat-symbol, then it finally hit me, It's the original Bob Kane-symbol. Cool. So it is a ver 1.x suit. (yes, I'm using the Arkham-games notation) Here's another shot of the suit: It's the stunt double but now that I see it, it's not bad for the Ver. 1 suit. Except for the ears. Too thin. I would prefer fatter ears There's also an additional note about the suit
  16. azrael
    Sorry. Only enterprise-use. I haven’t touched a desktop-distro in years.

    Suit feels very Arkham Origins-like. Plates over an inner suit. Not sure if I like the collar. I would prefer collar-less. Now for the cowl...Has a very stitched look to it. Not sure I like all that cheek showing. If they added another .5" to each side, I think it would be better. Robert Pattison has that Wilson Bethel cheek & chin from Daredevil S3 from that suit. The suit is okay for a Ver 1/Ver 1.5-suit that this movie takes place in (This flick is supposed to occur during his 2nd year-ish. Gordon is only a detective or Lt., not a captain and definitely no commish)

    People can scream “actively being developed” all they want. Someone can attach all the names and faces they want. But until a studio greenlights it, books shooting venues, hires actors and crews, etc., it’s all vaporware.

    Yeah, literally had to look up those 2 episodes...and they're gone. Q, literally, has eternity to smack that "holier-than-thou" attitude out of humans.
  21. azrael
    Yeah. In fact, I don't even remember the first 2 seasons of DS9 outside of the series premiere and the 2nd season finale. TNG had good episodes sprinkled during its first 2 seasons but with DS9, I can't recall an episode from the first 2 seasons that stuck with me.

    The Zhat Vash seem more akin to a zealot society than Section 31.
  23. azrael
    Or they can say this... Robert April’s NCC-1701 looked like this: Chris Pike’s 1701 was refitted to Disco-prise. Kirk’s was refitted to 1960s-prise. But frankly this is the problem with updating stuff design nearly 60 years ago that was made on what is today a shoe-string budget. It’s always going to look more advanced today.
  24. azrael
    So what I read is true. Episode 3 is part 3 of this series premiere. Episode 1 setup this show, episode 2 was all exposition, and now episode 3 is launching us onto this grand adventure(?). And we're picking up more strays next episode...

    Any VF could be used for decades. It just depends on usage and need.
