The computer and electronics super geek thread
TangledThorns replied to azrael's topic in Anime or Science Fiction
I thought about the Costco or pre-built PC route and there are some that are good deals but I'm a control freak and wanted a specific parts for my PC. That being said my MSI RTX 5080 Shadow OC was delivered this week, thankfully it was bought before the recent price bump. On a last note I have everything I need for my build except MSI's new 850 MAG Mortar mobo that should be released sometime this month. -
[Warner Bros] Minecraft - The Movie
TangledThorns replied to Old_Nash_II's topic in Anime or Science Fiction
My wife took the children instead so I can have a range day with a neighbor. Kids enjoyed it and so did my wife, said she never felt bored. -
All those films aren't big sci-fi nor comic book franchises. Jared Leto is a great actor but somehow he has a poor track record with mainstream action/sci-fi films. Probably not his fault and he seems to keep trying so props for effort I guess, lol.

Garret Hedlund has been in Taylor Sheridan's series Tulsa King and Bass Reeves on Paramount+ and he looks completely different. Age is a mf'er, ugh. Still, he should be in this movie but it seems they written him and Olivia Wilde's characters out ☹️

Apparently Disney pissed off Bruce Boxleitner when the sequel to Legacy was cancelled last minute before production. Disney also cancelled Tron Uprising too early imho. I love Tron but I'm not feeling it with this teaser like I did with Legacy's teaser. I am curious about NIN's soundtrack though!

Guess I'm taking my children to see the MINECRAFT tomorrow. RIP to my wallet 💸 -
Automan was a TRON ripoff but now Disney is ripping off Automan 🤣 Who else here remembers watching this series? I loved it as a kid.

General TV & Streaming series thread
TangledThorns replied to Tking22's topic in Anime or Science Fiction
Ehhh, Rick & Morty's last season was pretty weak and struggled to get a laugh out of me. No surprise after their staff "shakeup" and should have ended there. -
Val's health has been terrible because of the cancer and surgeries for it. If it wasn't for that I'm sure Val Kilmer would still be making awesome movies or streaming series. Hope he has found peace.

2027? That seems like a long way off. Might as well be a legacy sequel by then, lol. EDIT: Feels weird typing 2027. It's the future but not as sci-fi like as I expected as a kid 😟

The computer and electronics super geek thread
TangledThorns replied to azrael's topic in Anime or Science Fiction
Monitoring Trackalaker all day is not ideal but it beats getting in line at my local Microcenter at 2am, lol. Apparently some people are still doing that, ugh. For the last several years its been a painful time to be a gamer caused by pandemic chip shortage, crypto, and now AI. I'm concerned it'll get worse even with the RTX 60xx series with nVIdia and AMD is chasing wholesale AI bucks. But I hope I'm wrong. -

Watching the new season of The White Lotus and some of the plot line is really f'd up. Yeah, I know its HBO Max but wadafuq? -
The computer and electronics super geek thread
TangledThorns replied to azrael's topic in Anime or Science Fiction
I've been following Trackalacker like it was a stock ticker yesterday and though I wanted a 5070 Ti I decided to splurge on a MSI GeForce RTX 5080 16G SHADOW 3X OC for $1249 from their website. Still above my planned budget but I've always had mid-range cards so what the heck, lol. That being said supply seems to be improving, not great, but still improving. So scalpers can get f'd! Now I'm waiting on MSI to release their new MAG 850M mobo so can start on my next complete build soon!! -
New Harry Potter series Via HBO Max.
TangledThorns replied to 505thAirborne's topic in Anime or Science Fiction
I'm using the Resurrection Stone for this thread, lol. So far it's John Lithgow as Dumbledore, hope he is in excellent health to make it to the final season. Not sure about the rumored casting too. https://people.com/harry-potter-show-cast-side-by-side-with-original-actors-11703797 -
Kinda sad I'm not the only one underwhelmed by this. Hollywood should move on to other properties and there many out there that they already bought the rights to. Tops for me in no special order would be: 1. Warhammer 40K 2. Attack on Titan 3. AKIRA 4. Deus Ex 5. The Adventures of the Galaxy Rangers

How about a show based on pod racing?!! It'll be like Speed Racer but in Star Wars form!! -
The computer and electronics super geek thread
TangledThorns replied to azrael's topic in Anime or Science Fiction
I used Win11 for work and its fine for me. I think as long as its not like Win8 I'll be OK with it. OMFG those stupid tiles. Win8 is one Microsoft OS that I'm glad I skipped. -
The only time nostalgia in ALIEN worked well was in Isolation which I think is still the best media in the ALIEN franchise since ALIENS.

Weird clip that is trying to hit the nostalgia buttons. They keep forgetting what made ALIEN and ALIENS (even for a sequel!) so successful is that both felt fresh. Still, I'll check it out if it has good reviews.

TangledThorns replied to azrael's topic in Anime or Science Fiction
Yeah, Win10 is still good imo but its EOL is why I'm building a new PCs with Win11 for me and my children this year. For my children's PCs the parts will mostly be hand me downs from my current rig or used parts. Only part will be new will be the case so it'll look like a new PC to them.
