  1. Black Panther was a fine movie. Couldn't quite live up to the hype, but I was entertained. And they thankfully didn't shovel in a lot of needless and unnecesary other Marvel characters into it, like with Spider-Man Homecoming and Ant-Man. Black Panther was allowed to pretty much stand on it's own two feet, to be it's own fairly fresh movie - and it worked.
  2. <p>The Last Jedi was good. It was fresh and different and far, far better than The Force Awakens.</p><p> </p><p> That said... I strongly disliked what they did with Luke. Nearly ruined the experience for me.</p><p> </p><p> ---</p><p> </p><p> Black Panther can't possibly live up to the hype, but I'll go watch it. After watching the boring trailers, I was going to wait for the blu-ray release - but after the recent hype, I'll be caving. I'm a bit down on Marvel lately though, after Spider-man dissappointing me greatly after rave reviews and Thor, while certainly a good and entertaining movie, was too much slapstick for the serious subject.</p>
  3. So the AI doesn't automatically fire a guy who gets convicted for murder? Surely, that must be a bug.

I like the style better.</p>
  6. <p>New Vegas is the best of the newer Fallout games (though I haven't played 4 yet, so there's that) - but Fallout 2 is the best overall.</p><p> </p><p> If you guys haven't already given Wasteland 2 a spin, do so... it's basically a spiritual successor to the original Fallout games (which were a spiritual successor to the original Wasteland). It's great.</p>

  8. <p>After having vowed for so long never to waste time watching the most recent Fantastic Four movie, I finally did so a few days ago...</p><p> </p><p> And to my surprise, it didn't bother me as much as I had expected that they changed the skin colour of Johnny Storm for no good reason (other than to be 'hip' and 'political correct'). And the back story was actually quite interesting.</p><p> </p><p> ...but once the back story was over with, the movie was basically over as well. There was little time left for an awkward big (and only) battle against a completely botched and terrible Dr. Doom who had the strangest and most absurdly altered (from a comics perspective) motivations and powers. Ruined the movie for me. If you felt the last Dr. Doom did injustice to the comics version (it did), this one... wow.</p><p> </p><p> But still, overall not as terrible a movie as most people say.</p>
  9. Tennant as Purple Man was amazing. He's right up there alongside Loki as the best MCU villains so far. It was outright moronic to kill him off.

I did not mind the first few episodes of the Defenders but I felt it went downhill towards the end.<p> </p><p> It is almost as if the shows are getting progressively worse.

I did finish Iron Fist, but it was uneventful, uneven and absurdly uninteresting. And boy have they picked the wrong actor for the part... I don't remember Danny Rand being a naive, whiny boy in the comics...</p><p> </p><p> The Defenders arc would have worked so much better as part of Daredevil season 3, without Jessica Jones, Luke Cage and Iron Fist involved at all. And I would have expected a much better villain instead of wasting Sigourney Weaver on someone that ridiculously weak and uninteresting.</p>
  11. <p>Defenders was... underwhelming. But better than Luke Cage and, especially, Iron Fist.</p><p> </p><p> Have high hopes for Punisher though.</p>

It would appear I need the voice modulator and can't seem to figure out how to acquire it.

  13. <p>The game looks terrible and should have stayed in the 90's.</p><p> </p><p> There, I said it.</p>

  16. Guardians of The Galaxy 2 was amazing. It far exceeded my expectations. It had action, drama, comedy (a bit too much, but eh) and even emotional moments. I was well entertained right from the beginning, and I'm surprised to say that this turned out to be one of my favourite superhero movies ever made. Yes, it's simply <em>that</em> entertaining.
  17. Unfortunately, both mass retirings and people dying on the same day as they retire happen way too often to be rare and funny occurances.
  18. Sounds good, I look forward to seeing the completed works. <img alt="" data-src="//content.invisioncic.com/g322608/emoticons/smile.png.142cfa0a1cd2925c0463c1d00f499df2.png" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" />

  20. I'm playing through that currently! I love the gore and detailed Orc-murders. ...though it gets repetitive rather fast.
  21. Magnificent stuff, as always. <img alt="" data-src="//content.invisioncic.com/g322608/emoticons/smile.png.142cfa0a1cd2925c0463c1d00f499df2.png" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" />
  22. <p>Iron Fist was dissapointing. Overall story was slightly better than the likewise lukewark Luke Cage, while I like the actor portraying Danny Rand, I just don't feel he was right for the part - unlike with Luke Cage, where he felt so right in that role.</p><p> </p><p> Here's hoping The Defenders will impress. And Punisher, oh so much Punisher.</p>

  24. I was completely unaware of this nice little change, thanks for the info.
