  1. So... Liam Hemsworth is replacing Henry Cavill in the final season of The Witcher. Very odd and I think it has to do with the recent news of Cavill returning as Superman. The Witcher Renewed for Season 4 by Netflix, Liam Hemsworth to Replace Henry Cavill as Geralt of Rivia https://www.ign.com/articles/the-witcher-renewed-for-season-4-by-netflix-liam-hemsworth-to-replace-henry-cavill-as-geralt-of-rivia
  2. Not shocked by this. I remember visiting WDW and Univeral Studios back in 2010 and thought Disney was waaaay behind Universal. There is some rides that Disney should get rid of at WDW for newer attractions, namely Its a Small World. I went on it for nostalgia reasons but it was was the worst ride evar!
  3. Though I have yet to see Yellowstone I thought 1883 was an unexpectedly great series on Paramount+ and I'll resubscribe for their next series 1923 with Harrison Ford! That being said, Paramount giving away Yellowstone to Peacock has to be one of the biggest blunders in modern media ever. https://www.ign.com/articles/1923-yellowstone-prequel-has-a-release-date
  4. On the electronics front I upgraded to Google Pixel 7 (non-pro) from my trusty 3.5 year old Pixel 2 last week. My Pixel 2 was still working great (including battery) but no security support in over two years had me concerned so I made the upgrade. The Pixel 7 is an amazing value and so nice, matches the excellent reviews its been receiving online. I hope to keep my Pixel 7 operating in good condition for at least five years. When it comes to extending battery life on my phones it best to keep its charge levels between 20% to 80%. I use the Accubattery app to send me a notification when to unplug my phone from its charger when it hits 80%.
  5. THE NORTHMAN is on PRIME and it's one of the better movies I've seen all year!
  6. I'll watch it when it comes to HBO Max. I resigned up for HBO Max last week for their annual $104.99 plan plus $50 cash back from my AMEX credit card which is a steal IMO.
  7. I enjoyed MoS, don't get the hate for it. That being said we already had two sequels, lol.
  8. Finished the finale. Decent series, just needs more of the last two episodes to keep it interesting. I will say the Middle Earth: Shadow of Mordow/War games does better in telling old lore.
  9. That season finale episode could have been far better, especially after the previous two which were the best in the season IMO. Still, I'm very much looking forward to more She-Hulk and I expect her to be super popular in the films.
  10. A multi-generational actress, Recommend seeing her in original The Manchurian Candidate. RIP
  11. Heh, looks like it was a good thing Netflix lost out though I think HBO could have made a good series still. Netflix and HBO Reportedly Pitched Lord of the Rings TV Shows Alongside Amazon https://www.ign.com/articles/netflix-and-hbo-reportedly-pitched-lord-of-the-rings-tv-shows-alongside-amazon
  12. Too late imo. Jamie Foxx is a good actor but I think they need to find younger talent.
  13. Yeah, the episodes are long and there is a long build up that I hope pays off. Though I felt the same about Game of Thrones early in its first season too. That being said, as much money as Amazon put into Rings of Power (and it shows!) I still think THE BOYS is their top series imho.
  14. Trailer was decent but the last season lowered the bar significantly.
  15. Already planning our next family trip and its to San Diego in late May of next year. We plan on visiting Disney World there. Hadn't visited there since 2005 so I expect much changes.
  16. Showed the trailer to my 8 year old daughter, the targeted audience, and she can't wait to see the movie next April!
  17. Yeah, the onslaught of cheaped out post-process 3D movies killed 3D which is a shame. Outside of AVATAR were few 3D movies that stood out during that phase, namely TRON: legacy and The Hobbit trilogy, because they were actually filmed in 3D. That being said I still have two Panasonic plasma 3D televisions that I never watched a 3D movie on. Wearing the glasses seem like a pain to set up, lol.
  18. Ali is a good actor and I suspect he can only take so much crap before quitting himself.
  19. Iconic music for its day. RIP
  20. We do have young children, my daughter turned 8 while we were there and my son turns 5 before Christmas, so it was not a very relaxing trip lol. Having a stroller for my son helped a lot!! But yeah, we thought the same about EPCOT's attractions too. The food was good but way over priced. We stayed on resort at Art of Animation and we were paying between $120 to $150 a day on food alone there and at the parks! Next time we'll do AirBnB to save money on stay and food.
