Supposedly that series is very good. Really hoping BONES does it so I can maybe get some 2D mecha. Pipedream I know.

Jarmel (29927082)

I was thinking of the Adama maneuver and lo and behold this is a BSG thread.

Jarmel (29914612)

those bloodshot numbers woof

Jarmel (29918235)

Ah okay, so it might drop interest rates on loans, not necessarily house loans, but loans in general.

Jarmel (29918171)

I have an economy degree and I’m utterly confused as to what this means. Well I understand the bank can borrow money for free but how does this help the average consumer?

Jarmel (29908542)

Upstate NY We have no cases in our county and people are already acting like this.

Jarmel (29908428)

This is insane. Went by the grocery store last night and everything was gone. All soup, canned vegetables, chicken, beef, and pork is gone. All toilet and paper towels are gone. Feels like the average consumer is overreacting and the federal government is underreacting.

Jarmel (29896189)

Why are the players coughing up money for the arena employees??? Owners should be paying every cent.

Jarmel (29887503)

I hope people like this lose all of their money. World's smallest violin.

Jarmel (29877807)

Nobody wants swamp ass in the apocalypse.

Jarmel (29882671)

Descent comes to mind. Movie fucked me up in a way horror movies rarely do nowadays.

Jarmel (29856076)

60s theme. I never even saw the cartoon and I know the song by heart.

Jarmel (29831864)

I really fucked up investing on Monday.

Jarmel (29831919)

big mood

Jarmel (29818410)

And I just checked prices for November and they actually went UP.

Jarmel (29815378)

Why the fuck aren’t Japanese airline prices going down?

Jarmel (29822530)

oh what the fuck how did nobody find this out sooner

Jarmel (29805819)

Japan will fight tooth and nail to prevent a delay. I’m willing to bet there are people on the IOC board that would rather roll the dice on a possible outbreak than delay it even a few months.

Jarmel (29792858)

He pretty much ran at the speed of light. According to Sonic Wiki, Sonic's max speed is Mach 15.

Jarmel (29792451)

Peak Sonic would get smoked even by this form of the Flash.

Jarmel (29791185)

Obama was definitely better than JFK. Bay of Pigs?

Jarmel (29792047)

I also have a few doctors in my family too and one is freaking out because they treat patients clinically so they're prone to catch it, one thinks it's a huge business opportunity because it's up their specialty, and one is stockpiling like crazy because they're just generally paranoid. All three are treating it very seriously. Doctors are humans just like everybody else.

Jarmel (29792219)

The clinical doctor that I know is freaking out is because they didn't receive any directions from their clinic about how to treat Corona patients such as special procedures. They're also not doing anything extra to keep the doctors safe. It's going to be bad when things get really heavy here.

Jarmel (29791985)

this is going to be a wild next few weeks

Jarmel (29777557)

My family lives in the containment zone. That McDonalds down the street, on North Avenue, is a hotspot waiting to happen.

Jarmel (29776823)

I love how detailed these specs are.

Jarmel (29781664)

I wonder what the tradeoff is. Stimulus package for the insurance companies down the road? They aren’t doing this for free.

Jarmel (29777767)

If only the Japanese airlines would reduce their prices.

Jarmel (29790004)

If you’re talking about youth as in someone not at college then I could sort of understand but then they’re facing the same issues a normal working adult would face. If you’re talking about a college student then I strongly disagree. College students have more than enough time and opportunities to vote nowadays with polling places on campuses.

Jarmel (29789828)

I’m referring to that tweet in which there was a long line of same day registrations on a college campus.

Jarmel (29789697)

Voter suppression is a serious and major issue facing many low income communities where parents are working and/or can’t get transportation or time to go out and vote. Not to mention just registering or lacking the proper IDs. Voter suppression is not a major issue on a college campus where kids can walk up and vote days in advance and are constantly hassled for weeks by volunteers on campus to vote in between college classes. The kids also have access to buses that can take them to other voting sites if they live off campus.

Jarmel (29789490)

Those are probably same day registrations in which case yes a long wait on election day is to be expected.

Jarmel (29789544)

That’s on a college campus so transportation isn’t really a good excuse. They also have early voting and a whole host of stuff. It’s an issue of apathy more than anything else.

Jarmel (29788963)

Why? These primaries showed how everybody absolutely loathed her guts.

Jarmel (29788664)

They're at 40% and Biden is up a bit short of 300 votes.

Jarmel (29788231)

I think they're still counting and Biden is up...

Jarmel (29783851)

Yea her endorsement never meant shit. Hopefully that stupid plot thread is dead now.

Jarmel (29783758)

Good luck with that.

Jarmel (29767942)

In the era of Trump? lol

Jarmel (29764931)

My mother is a doctor and she has a similar setup in regards to not having dedicated sick leave but just overall paid time off. It's been a recent trend by employers.

Jarmel (29774485)

Well nvm turns out they actually might be in the containment zone after all. Wonder if that means checkpoints and if people (ie me) are allowed to visit them.

Jarmel (29773982)

My family is in New Rochelle. They apparently are outside the containment zone by a quarter of a mile. Shit.

Jarmel (29758190)

Japan's numbers are so full of shit and they're so brazen about it.

Jarmel (29751724)

Charlie Work is indeed one of the best Always Sunny episodes and just a flat out amazing episode in of itself. Even besides the use of a faux one-take, it’s just a well written and executed episode.

Jarmel (29756617)

We’re getting into con season and a lot of cons will very much want to continue regardless of the risks.

Jarmel (29755310)

It’s because of how heavily armored it is. It’s pretty much a tank.

Jarmel (29754033)

I was thinking the same thing.

Jarmel (29738716)

Bought some index funds. First time in a while where I've invested.

Jarmel (29738068)

some of those gas company numbers...

Jarmel (29737619)

Well there were more fundamental issues in 08 leading to the recession but here there are much more immediate large scale issues. Panic selling is going to be intense for the next couple of weeks.

Jarmel (29743747)

I was definitely just charged. I have no fucking clue what is going on.

Jarmel (29744075)

Mine might be shipping soon? Unlike a separate order that says it'll ship in 8 weeks, the VR kit is listed under past orders with "View Shipment Details".

Jarmel (29743869)

It should be noted that when you're filling out the shipping info and try to complete it and it says "Out of Stock", just keep retrying and eventually it will go through???? absolute clusterfuck

Jarmel (29743193)

Wait hold on, maybe I purchased both the VR Kit and Index Headset+Controllers separately in my mad rush? This whole fucking thing is confusing. I only got one email so wtf.

Jarmel (29743516)

Now when I try to complete it, it says out of stock. What the hell.

Jarmel (29743086)

What an utter mess. Also a 2+ month delay is going to do a great job killing my hype for all of this.

Jarmel (29742917)

Oh hell I checked my purchase history and this won't ship for 8 weeks. wtf Valve made a shitshow out of this.

Jarmel (29742686)

I have it in my cart but they won't let me check out. damn it

Jarmel (29742759)

I got an email saying I have an order but I can't finish the order via their website.

Jarmel (29726860)

There are going to be so many quality Hector memes.

Jarmel (29730055)

yea those review snippets aint so hot

Jarmel (29706514)

All I can do is hope that it was business related because the guy had enough milk to take a bath in.

Jarmel (29706172)

It was ordinary milk.

Jarmel (29707255)

Hand sanitizer for $80 a bottle. Whew things are getting wild out there.

Jarmel (29705972)

People are fucking crazy. Just saw a guy at Walmart have an entire shopping cart full of milk. He must have had 30 gallons full of milk in his cart and was still taking more out of the shelves.

Jarmel (29706987)

Just saw the Nets’ news. What the hell. This Kyrie’s fault?

Jarmel (29690366)

I was wondering about that in regards to a mandatory quarantine. Do quarantined people have food being brought to them?

Jarmel (29689482)

ROTJ gets a lot of shit for stuff like the Ewoks but it has a number of high points in the franchise and I regard the Throne Room Duel as the best scene in the entire franchise.

Jarmel (29678071)

Emerald City Comic Con just postponed to Summer 2020.

Jarmel (29678143)

End state of an ignorant populace.

Jarmel (29664096)

Shutting down all international travel would cause a global depression overnight.

Jarmel (29659639)

*shakes head*

Jarmel (29659240)

Someone in Japan possibly got reinfected but we don’t know if they fully recovered or not from the initial bout. The article also mentions the possibility that it can just stay in your system for extended durations of time and flair up. Just a lot of question marks it seems.

Jarmel (29638728)

Yea, some of the rearrangements aren’t that great. I also think the sound mixing is occasionally off.

Jarmel (29586502)

It’s Dick and Terry. Dick for overcoming Batman’s shadow and Terry for becoming a proper successor.

Jarmel (29573315)

The poster wasn’t exactly arguing in good faith was he?

Jarmel (29573034)

That scene and the previously mentioned cutscene isn’t representative of the game as a whole and certainly not the more dramatic moments in Xenoblade 2. The point can be made about the difference in tone without contrasting Z-tier side content in one compared to a major cutscene in the other.

Jarmel (29572273)

I mean that is a BS comparison and the poster knows it.

Jarmel (29564805)

It’s absolutely going to be 4+. They’re already talking about expanding other parts of the game. They’re not rushing any of this, rather the opposite.

Jarmel (29563884)

It’s definitely going to be 4-6. People thinking 3 are being too hopeful.

Jarmel (29538073)

Yea this looks like trash. The best part of the early books is that Artemis is a total asshole and pretty much a villain in the making. The original novel also had him at odds with the Fairy Police and I think even his butler was thinking he was going off the rails until his plot is revealed at the end. This trailer just makes him look like a good guy.

Jarmel (29538208)

Also another great aspect of the early books was the mystery angle. This looks like everything is spelled out early on. Just utter garbage.

Jarmel (29538240)

Wasn’t the tagline or elevator pitch of the first book, “Die Hard with Faeries”?

Jarmel (29522320)

Nicolas Cage and Samuel L Jackson defined their careers with these sort of roles.

Jarmel (29487312)

Not a great staff list but whatever.

Jarmel (29479800)

Too street

Jarmel (29486285)

Doesnt deserve the legacy it has as being responsible for killing 2D animation at Disney.

Jarmel (29472978)

“Climate realism”

Jarmel (29472934)

What’s funny though is that it was the boyfriend who wanted to end it for most of the movie and she was the one who wouldn’t let go.

Jarmel (29476473)

Yea I could see that. Would be infinitely worse if she dumped you for some slob off the street. Then you’re thinking what the hell is wrong with you.

Jarmel (29444754)

Straight up fuck him for even remotely thinking that would be an acceptable ending. fucking hell my blood is boiling even thinking about this

Jarmel (29433757)

Cinematic masterpiece

Jarmel (29433909)

uhhhh yea im not sure what reaction they expected from consumers on this one

Jarmel (29430690)

I’m not going to shed a single tear over this. This was a case of Disney with money signs in their eyes and it sounds like it backfired.

Jarmel (29430717)

Horse sized duck

Jarmel (29418431)

This will cost 3k.

Jarmel (29419438)

This sounds like a no-tip scenario where there isn’t really table service and they’re just dropping the food off at a table.

Jarmel (29421114)

This movie was likely to be trash regardless of who directed it. Better that Spielberg didnt waste his last few years on this. Also couldn’t hurt to have a new perspective on Indy.

Jarmel (29403698)

Better animations than Andromeda.

Jarmel (29403739)

Eureka Seven thread

Jarmel (29382017)

The trailers seem like they gave away WAY too much so I’m surprised to hear that it didn’t spoil much. I mean the trailers I’m seeing felt like a full movie synopsis so I don’t even know where else they could go with it.

Jarmel (29381819)

Besides the Mr.Mime, this would be a fairly good team. Gengar, Dragonite, and a souped up Pikachu is a legit Kanto team. Ash needs to catch Mewtwo though.

Jarmel (29382085)

The finale will be Ash’s Charizard vs Leon’s Charizard.

Jarmel (29381855)

Too bad Jexhius and duckroll are banned so they can’t shill Fafner.

Jarmel (29382143)

I get *super* painful shin splints. Feels like my shins are going to break.

Jarmel (29380379)

The more I think about this, the more uninspired I think it is.

Jarmel (29381440)

Well sounds like that will be the case, in which case all of this is whatever. It’s sort of a boring era to explore and doesn’t sound like they plan on rocking the boat though.

Jarmel (29381260)

Watch the ‘great disaster’ be a movie.

Jarmel (29381038)

Pretty much anything not even remotely attached to the movie era. We’re still getting old Yoda in this for heavens sake. This feels like a redo of ideas associated with TPM, mainly in regards to the Jedi Order.

Jarmel (29384642)

That tentacle grab by Nemesis looks super annoying and not in a fun way.

Jarmel (29376312)

I mean at this point you probably have an 800+ year old Yoda on the Jedi Council. This is the lamest era they could have tackled outside of maybe the immediate preceding years to TPM.

Jarmel (29376243)

This is utterly stupid. 200 years back with how slow SW tech progression is? This feels somewhat creatively bankrupt.

Jarmel (19986973)

I never would have predicted this.

Jarmel (29348526)

I hope not. I don’t want Brett Brown to have an excuse.

Jarmel (1253190)

Possible Darwin Award winner?

Jarmel (29336666)

He wasn't disillusioned with the Jedi Order like Luke was, sure. I don't see how you can look at Obi-Wan in TROS and ANH and say how the climax in TROS didn't impact him in terms of his attitude. Even just the notion of just dumping it on Luke showed how his perspective had changed compared to confronting Anakin on Mustafar. Also do you seriously believe that if Obi-Wan wanted to train Luke that Lars, a moisture farmer, could have stopped him?

Jarmel (29336161)

Both of them are fairly disillusion/broken over personal failures and ANH/TLJ is about them finding the spark to get over their failures and fight back.

Jarmel (29335996)

Legends Luke because his canon arc feels like a retread of Obi-Wan.

Jarmel (29336252)

Obi-Wan didn't train shit. He didn't do anything to prep Luke outside that one day training lesson in ANH.

Jarmel (29318091)

Amazing title.

Jarmel (29318122)

LIVE AND LEARN

Jarmel (29322948)

He needs the grip strength to actually hold on to the webbing. It’s a display of durability and strength.

Jarmel (29326630)

Raps

Jarmel (29323657)

I have an Embody and it’s great.

Jarmel (29316753)

That whole sequence is utter bullshit. First punch should have easily knocked Cap out and Spidey takes way harder hits than what Cap can dish out.

Jarmel (29315236)

After looking into the Spider-Man 2 train scene, that's on a totally different level of strength compared to the helicopter Cap scene.So 3,000 pounds vs 436,515 pounds. Spider-Man is stronger. I take back thinking Cap would win. He would easily get killed in a single punch.

Jarmel (29280239)

Yea I’m pretty surprised by these results.

Jarmel (29274778)

Season 2 was just utter shit. This looks way better.

Jarmel (29271771)

The more I read in to this case, the funnier and more stupid it gets. They didn’t even need to go through Border Patrol!

Jarmel (29268735)

This thread is cursed.

Jarmel (29247269)

Ehhhhhhhhh

Jarmel (29247351)

Yusuke in YYH? Dude was an idiot.

Jarmel (29247206)

Most shounen characters are idiots unless they’re written like ‘super geniuses’ in JoJo.

Jarmel (29230966)

Raimi Spidey is significantly stronger but he doesn’t have the combat/fighting experience Cap has. I would give this to Cap as he wouldn’t get into a punching match with Spidey. In theory though Spidey should be able to completely obliterate Cap.

Jarmel (14745894)

Anima is Mexican, not Japanese.

Jarmel (14729097)

Concerned about the animation studios for almost all of these. Sato working on Altered Carbon is good but not sure about Anima.

Jarmel (29204001)

That Sirius comeback, lawd.

Jarmel (29179542)

I can’t stop laughing at those poll results.

Jarmel (29179179)

lol you should never go through the dealership unless the manufacturer is covering it

Jarmel (29172214)

Snape was a blatant goddamn racist. Being an overt racist is way worse than being a bully. Snape was an absolutely horrible human being. Which of course makes the stupidity of Harry naming his kid after the guy even worse.

Jarmel (29160574)

Unless that's a 3000 series card, they can fuck off.

Jarmel (29155418)

yea uh beard pls

Jarmel (29149470)

And with that, voting is closed. I’ll be rigging the votes shortly.

Jarmel (29149403)

Force Ghost is immortality.

Jarmel (29146305)

1. - Quite possibly the best season and a high note for the franchise to go out on. 2. Believe in the Machio that believes in your muscles. 3. - Evolved from the Haikyuu copy cats that IG had been pumping out into something separate and emotionally resonant. 4. Despite some weaker earlier episodes, the show found its rhythm. 5. Strong showing from Wit, possibly their last entry. Some of the sakuga cuts were on a different level. 6. The only reason this is not higher on my list is that I didn't finish it yet. 7. The best Gundam series since the original GBF. 8.Despite amazing art direction, the story is sort of insane. 9. Good showing from Ikuhara despite the limited runtime still hampering him. Signficantly better than Yuri Bears. 10. Honestly this was a bore in the 2nd half despite all the sakuga. 1. 2. 3. 4. 5.

Jarmel (29144730)

I have zero sympathy for this.

Jarmel (29139302)

You either have to have a very specialized field or work for a FAANG to make 200k. On that note besides just the vague suggestion of becoming a better programmer, what can you do to buff up your resume?

Jarmel (29134584)

Yea I don’t blame him. SW is sort of in a bad place right now.

Jarmel (29136487)

Shadow movie is going to make *bank*.

Jarmel (29131111)

Yea there's a lot of bloat in this. Not exactly a good indication of how the rest of the game will go but eh.

Jarmel (29114451)

Well they just outright stated that. lol guess they didn’t want to keep that a secret for X months.

Jarmel (29118251)

Terminator because it doesn't have some of the sappiness that Aliens and Terminator 2 has.

Jarmel (29097617)

The original is way better due to the contrasting colors. The new one looks washed out.

Jarmel (29097842)

That's sort of what Mighty Ducks 2 is about with Team USA and Gordon pushing them too hard.

Jarmel (29097468)

That honestly looks way nicer. Has much more character.

Jarmel (29102096)

Looks like a worse version of the TDK suit. Not that much worse though.

Jarmel (29102151)

If that suit is a prototype then fine but as a ‘final’ version by Bruce it’s pretty awful.

Jarmel (29094158)

No.

Jarmel (29075589)

Throw a knife on the court. “Winner starts.”

Jarmel (29075033)

I also love how Westbrook made it over Curry despite Westbrook having no rings.

Jarmel (29073471)

It’s what made Jimmy so great.

Jarmel (29074932)

KD a 1 and Melo a 2 lmao

Jarmel (10869420)

None of the ones you listed were in any way impressive as a set piece. They were funny or fun such as Renner and Cruise catching the train but not visually striking. McQuarrie’s movies aren’t as fun as Bird’s but the set pieces are more designed to impress. The Kremlin one for example has the team using a balloon to drop a device that transfers data to Russian computers then simply walk downstairs where they use the AR tracking device and a directed sound replicator to enter the archives. Messing with the guard downstairs is funny but in no way is it demanding or taxing on a physical level.

Jarmel (10861344)

I was in awe for that rooftop bit, just tearing it up.

Jarmel (10860837)

I just rewatched Ghost Protocol today. The set pieces in that movie are dogshit in comparison to this movie.

Jarmel (10861184)

Absolutely. The only good one in the entire movie is the Burj sequence and it’s fairly short and not that elaborate. Does anyone remember anything about the Kremlin intrusion or the car parking garage in India? The set pieces in the movie are really lame in comparison to this one.

Jarmel (10861487)

The past movies, and especially the ones by McQuarrie, point out how the IMF and Hunt’s success is a good chunk due to luck. One of the main themes in MI5 is that Hunt is by nature a gambler and eventually his luck will run out (it didn’t).

Jarmel (10831519)

Fake News!

Jarmel (10831571)

Everybody is praising the action sequences but what impressed me the most was how sharp the sound direction was from the mixing to matching the OST to specific scenes in the movie, such as the beats corresponding to the CIA director's steps in her intro. Absolutely crisp.

Jarmel (10826857)

Who was fucking complaining that this movie was too complicated or convoluted? They spell half the shit out for you.

Jarmel (28988643)

I would also add that I don’t think Snowpiercer is that good at all, which is probably his most accessible movie prior to this.

Jarmel (28988403)

I liked 1917 more but this was definitely my second favorite film from the past year.

Jarmel (28981968)

If he even gets to the PWT, that is a crowning achievement. You have to be considered Top 8 in the world to get there.

Jarmel (28980268)

Rondo or JR, pick your poison.

Jarmel (28965626)

This is pretty awesome as a sort of library. Not something I would do but I love the dedication.

Jarmel (28962171)

We'll see if Wiggins can keep it up but not a bad debut on his part. I was going to make a ton of jokes at his expense but he did ok.

Jarmel (28961937)

I would probably replace Avengers with Spider-Man 2 and Ragnarock with Iron Man 3 and Logan is too high but it's not a bad list.

Jarmel (28955488)

Because pop culture peaked in the 80s. I don’t know how you can argue otherwise. Much of the music, movies, and just overall style hasn’t been topped since. Lots of the works that came out then are still considered the best of their genre/type.

Jarmel (28960270)

Never really thought about using your socks in a situation like that but makes the most sense. Use socks and throw them out.

Jarmel (28961278)

His efficiency needs to go way up.

Jarmel (28960618)

god lord clippers really going to get blown out huh?

Jarmel (28960373)

New Wolves giving Clippers the business. Wiggins really fucked that team all up.

Jarmel (28960459)

Can’t blame him after seeing the Wiggins debut.

Jarmel (28948275)

oof

Jarmel (28933721)

Game 6 Klay is worth that max contract.

Jarmel (28933993)

I would trade Simmons before Embiid. I think Embiid can get you across that finish line if he had a great team behind him. I’m not so sure about Simmons.

Jarmel (28935380)

That Harris contract is wild. There are some seriously goddamn awful contracts in the league right now.

Jarmel (28928554)

The only reason the Warriors didnt 3peat was KD got injured. That’s it.

Jarmel (28929147)

That feels like an excuse for just not getting things done.

Jarmel (28840524)

Titan AE would be a great scifi live action film if done properly.

Jarmel (28842862)

Warriors going for Wiggins feels like a desperation move.

Jarmel (28841080)

What a fucking shitshow.

Jarmel (28775300)

G Gundam disagrees with you.

Jarmel (28776162)

That’s why the G Gundam piloting system is the best and I'm surprised no later series has ripped that element off.

Jarmel (28778644)

Gon is insane but likeable. He somehow makes Killua look normal.

Jarmel (28764794)

Jarmel (28747252)

what in the fuck? i hate how corporatized kickstarter is

Jarmel (28737632)

Fixed.

Jarmel (28723199)

lol at people having expectations for Murkowski

Jarmel (28711025)

I want off this planet.

Jarmel (28706880)

All for this. It’ll probably push Apple into wireless only but I like to see how incentivized they’ll be if there’s a wireless standard as well.

Jarmel (28705258)

I got high recently, first time in a few years, and I thought I was drunk. My speech was slurred, I was stumbling around, felt like I was going to choke on my own tongue, and my stomach was upset. First time I’ve had a negative experience like that, so I can understand a lady not knowing she was high freaking out.

Jarmel (28632349)

Some of this is definitely valid but some of this is also insanely nitpicky.

Jarmel (28576010)

I really hope the anime continues all the way to the end. This would be such fun to see animated.

Jarmel (28575806)

Horikoshi should have just had the Twice/Hawks stuff earlier. This felt like a lot of unnecessary cutting back and forth. Also outside of the Liberation Army’s organizational stuff, I don’t think any of this was necessary.

Jarmel (28575943)

He jumped forward, then back for a rather unnecessary explanation/scene, then jumped forward again. The Hawks/Twice stuff would have been better earlier but now it feels like unnecessary and interrupting of the flow of events.

Jarmel (28575724)

What a shit chapter. Don’t tease a flash forward like that then go all the way back.

Jarmel (28575053)

It’s funny because Ash just entered a local tournament a few weeks back on Pokemon 2019 and wrecked everybody with ease. For a perpetual 10 year old, that’s not bad.

Jarmel (28573587)

Now that is a better question. My first reaction is Dumbledore. What exactly did Gandalf do magic-wise?

Jarmel (28567449)

I agree. You shouldn’t be allowed to vote in a category unless you’ve seen all the entries in that category.

Jarmel (28570167)

1. So many things to love about the game such as the art direction, difficulty, combat, bosses, world design, and story. I need to finish Bloodborne but this is my favorite FROM game in that everything clicked for me. 2. Mr. X repeatedly gave it to me. Amazing remake that was a blast to play from start to finish.Remedy are a master of their craft and while Control isn't as strong as Alan Wake nor as narratively good as Quantum Break, it's still fun as hell to play. 4. I've been desparate for a good Star Wars game and this scratched that itch. I wish the combat was more fleshed out but it was good enough. 5. The JoJo police adventure I didn't even know I wanted. 6. Loads of fun to play but I wish the story was more cohesive. 7. Lots of great ideas that feel underbaked in certain areas but definitely memorable. 8. Been waiting for this since the 360 generation and that they never ported over the PS3 version. 9. - Felt like I was playing COD4 for the first time. Too bad the updates couldn't keep up with the players.

Jarmel (28561883)

Rockets getting bounced by OKC would definitely be funnier.

Jarmel (28562346)

My immediate reaction was Supernatural. lol

Jarmel (28544899)

Who the fuck wants to move to Baltimore? I can understand everything on this list except that. I might have to go to Baltimore for work for a few months and I’m sure as shit not excited about it.

Jarmel (28539732)

The designer was totally having a joke and nobody caught him. Amazing.

Jarmel (28535176)

Not surprised about that either. Westbrook is an analytics nightmare and pretty much goes against everything Morey stood for the past few years.

Jarmel (28523403)

“So how much do you think you’re worth?” “Not high enough.” “That’s not a number.” “And that’s not high enough.”

Jarmel (28512791)

People don't bring her up because everything else SW-related is a dumpster fire so it looks to be more the exception. It's really easy to A/B Lucasfilm and Marvel right now and see how fans treat and hold accountable certain executives for certain franchises. Feige probably gets more credit than he deserves just as she's probably get more blame than she deserves. That's part of being a leader. Besides the Mandalorian really isn't that good anyway.

Jarmel (28513190)

Yea Iger definitely should get blame for the release dates, those have caused a huge chunk of damage in terms of everybody being rushed.

Jarmel (28512258)

If it's 4 episodes, might as well just make a movie out of it.

Jarmel (28512379)

That's assuming each episode is a full hour instead of 45 minutes or so. Truncating that to a 2.5 hour movie doesn't seem insane. They could even do a two parter since they don't want to do trilogies anymore.

Jarmel (28512168)

We had people bringing up Iger despite him not being brought up at all in the article. Besides that, she's the head of Lucasfilm. She's ultimately responsible. Look at her counterpart inside the same company. Who do people feel is ultimately responsible for the MCU? Definitely not Iger.There's been minimal articles from the media talking about Kennedy's working relationship with Iger in the sense of whether Iger is the one placing demands on Kennedy or if Kennedy has free reign. Almost all of the previous issues with directors has stemmed from issues Kennedy herself has had with the directors/scripts/whatever.

Jarmel (28512233)

How the fuck did they not catch this? It being too similar to the Mandalorian really took them by surprise?

Jarmel (28511890)

She gets the blame because she's the head of Lucasfilm. Also it's not like people don't drag Iger for this mess occasionally.

Jarmel (28511439)

Someone should leak one of those early scripts as my faith in anyone at Lucasfilm is pretty much nil.

Jarmel (28430292)

He actually went back! lololololol

Jarmel (28430082)

oof this might be the darkest show Aoki has ever made

Jarmel (14958536)

Soundtrack-wise absolutely especially when you look at the actual list.

Jarmel (28382872)

Yea okay I'm on board. Show is less about the investigations in of themselves but rather how these serial killers see the world and how completely fucked up the main character is. The main character, Narihisago, is nasty in a way that he would be the villain in most shows. Then there is the Moriarty counterpart waiting in the background and this show should be a lot of fun.

Jarmel (28381901)

This script does sound significantly better. Damn.

Jarmel (28357409)

Damn it was a mistake coming into this thread. This looks 10x cooler than what we got.

Jarmel (28338369)

It’s really RotJ for so many reasons such as emotional payoff, cinematography, music, and editing. Luke going ham on Vader is probably the best scene in the franchise.

Jarmel (28338527)

Everybody talks a good game until their feet are put to the fire. lol

Jarmel (28259434)

That’s what I got from the OP as well. lol

Jarmel (614295)

There really should be a serious effort to modernize speed limits across the US and coordinate area between counties. There’s some parts in NYS that drop down to 55 for no reason whatsoever.

Jarmel (28184864)

wow uh just wow

Jarmel (28183678)

They don't.

Jarmel (28116255)

I’m an engineer. Everyone on that I&T team knew there were problems.

Jarmel (28115833)

Probably new staff.

Jarmel (28091169)

I think people are overreacting to this. They give you five different options and/or a counselor can sign off on an alternative. In no way are they saying you absolutely need to work.

Jarmel (28060162)

I just remembered CP3 is being paid supermax money. Jesus Christ.

Jarmel (28043523)

MHA is like a C level effort from Bones.

Jarmel (28041209)

So are we at war essentially?

Jarmel (27940434)

People already have.

Jarmel (27882774)

We’re locking this thread as there currently is no insider verification on Reddit’s side that any of this is true. If there is some degree of insider verification then a new thread can be started.

Jarmel (27827000)

ST09 is probably Abrams' best film. A couple of months ago I would have said Into Darkness was his worst film but now I'm not so sure. STID is such an utterly stupid film but it is more cohesive than RoS and actually has a larger theme about militarization in response to terrorism.

Jarmel (27826883)

A lot of the issues stem from these semi-fixed release dates that Lucasfilm is extremely resistant on budging from. As much as I want to blame Kennedy, there could also been demands from Iger on this. If it was Kennedy though that was pushing for these dates then there really isn't a qualifier for how bad those decisions have been and the ramifications they've had on all of the SW creative teams.

Jarmel (27826778)

TFA had problems too. Abrams was ripping his hair out about the initial deadline for TFA and then Ford had to essentially break his leg for Kennedy to grant a delay. Shit is nuts.

Jarmel (27815094)

RIP to an absolute legend

Jarmel (27824733)

The change had nothing to do with spoilers but rather complaints about the accuracy of the original title. Palpatine’s involvement in RoS is fair game for thread titles.

Jarmel (27822160)

Robot Chicken is gonna have a ball with the ST.

Jarmel (27821674)

It’s a bad movie with a bad script.

Jarmel (27821548)

Actually

Jarmel (27816461)

This isn't even good hackery. Like all of this could have been mentioned in the film in one or two lines.

Jarmel (27814734)

Knicks would and then fire him the next year.

Jarmel (27798652)

I don't watch LOTR expecting political drama.

Jarmel (27792480)

Any answer is correct as long as it isn't the ST.

Jarmel (27785976)

Goddamn, Deadline should be embarrassed about how much ass licking they're doing.

Jarmel (27779051)

Either developed a severe sinus infection or pneumonia yesterday. Sucks.

Jarmel (27778911)

I got an extended warranty for my BMW. It cost about 3k but makes sense if there’s ever something wrong with the car.

Jarmel (27779075)

This is probably bullshit but I’ll believe it for now.

Jarmel (27752565)

The deepfakes look way better on my phone.

Jarmel (27746326)

Ripping that oxygen mask off to put on your dog is probably the most wild out of all of that.

Jarmel (27739628)

That Force Lightning Storm is by far the most impressive display of Force powers in the movies. Luke died from sending a hologram. It’s the Palps bloodline.

Jarmel (27723648)

The movie being greenlit to begin with was a mistake which again falls on Kennedy for trying to please Kasdan, who bailed anyway. Alden though was a definite miscast.

Jarmel (27723505)

I’ve seen little to think that she’s some sort of visionary worthy of keeping on. Star Wars in the hands of someone who wasn’t Lucas was going to generate an insane amount of money just due to it being a premier scifi franchise and there not being a SW movie for X number of years. A lot of the issues post-TFA fall on either Iger or her such as the director version of musical chairs and the insane deadlines. I think Solo for example would have done better if it had you know, been a great movie. The infighting between Kasdan/KK and Lord & Miller didn’t help anything. I don’t think it would have generated Rogue One numbers persay but definitely better.

Jarmel (27724617)

hahahahahahaha

Jarmel (27715180)

I was afraid they were going to walk the developments in the last episode back a bit but nope they doubled down on it. This has been great. Also Mini May is good content.

Jarmel (27715822)

I actually think it would be better to hear something like that from the mother. Would seem less whiny on his part.

Jarmel (3547172)

Jarmel (27706706)

lol the Rockets lost? god damn that must be a gloomy affair post game in the Rockets’ locker room

Jarmel (27702057)

The TLJ ones are either too overly choreographed like the TLJ Throne Room or not long enough or visceral like the Luke/Kylo one. TFA has the best lightsaber duel in the ST precisely because of how worn out Kylo is and the emotions he brings to the table.

Jarmel (27702170)

I'm hoping the people mentioning Throne Room are all referencing RotJ. Either this or ESB are absolutely still king.

Jarmel (27701980)

Luke/Vader Throne Room in RotJ is probably the best scene in the franchise, so uh that one. Followup is ESB for all of the character details interwoven throughout the duel like Vader not trying and Luke's fear.Throne Room is the best precisely for that moment with Williams going ham.

Jarmel (27647115)

Those China numbers are fucking miserable.

Jarmel (27629841)

Please direct further box office conversation here:

Jarmel (27629126)

Yea there is no way on Earth they were actually expecting $160 mil.

Jarmel (27629426)

Well there it is. oof Heads are going to roll at either Disney or LFL.

Jarmel (27629003)

Yea the Deadline article is really bizzare. It sounds both defensive and like they're trying to cover for Disney. Also that 179 is pretty optimistic as it's assuming only a -15% drop this Sunday. Might be closer to 175.

Jarmel (27628958)

very private matter no tell poe

Jarmel (27629649)

Is Joker a bigger IP than Star Wars?

Jarmel (27613004)

This is easily the best Gundam series since OG Build Fighters by a country mile. I'm pretty excited to see what the second cour shapes up to be.

Jarmel (27614812)

Yea that makes sense although with some of the revelations in 11 and 12, the stakes are definitely higher now in terms of consequences.

Jarmel (27613364)

The fact that we don't have a super obnoxious lead makes it better than most Gundam. Episode 12 wouldn't have anywhere near the impact it does if the show didn't spend most of the cour with the characters in that world. There's also some earlier stuff that might pay off like Par's emotional trauma could be related to him . They've spent time establishing the characters, the world, making sure battles aren't just asspulls for the most part, and finally having real stakes.

Jarmel (27614927)

The original trilogy had the director/writer of the first one working on scripts on all three and shadow directing the third.

Jarmel (27614359)

I just now realized that the wreckage of the Death Star II was on a different moon orbiting Endor called Kef Bir. None of this was well conveyed.

Jarmel (27614429)

Endor can refer to either the moon or the planet.

Jarmel (27614068)

im crying at that last sentence

Jarmel (27613749)

The pathfinders belonging to Vader and Sheev directly make so much more sense and the movie did an atrocious job of conveying that.

Jarmel (27613645)

Yes. Palpatine neutralized an entire fleet by himself.

Jarmel (27613468)

If Luke knew Palpatine was alive and he decided to off himself anyway when he could have just flown his X-Wing to Crait....

Jarmel (27613499)

It looked nothing like Mustafar. I had no clue it was supposed to be Mustafar until I saw someone mention it in this thread.

Jarmel (27613557)

It's amazing how vastly inferior this movie is even to TFA.

Jarmel (27613594)

It's funny too in that the First Order was pretty much ruling the galaxy in TLJ and if Palpatine even had a few hundred of those ships ready then he would have totally dominated the galaxy with an iron first by giving a few to the First Order that he was controlling anyway. Instead he waits until he has 10,000 ships for no reason.

Jarmel (27611737)

Listen, Luke just wanted to work from home. He didn't want to go into the office that day.

Jarmel (27609181)

I guess my feeling with Luke and the lightsaber thing was that in TLJ Luke changed his mind but the film wasn't outright stating that his behavior and attitude was wrong, especially considering he makes numerous valid points. I guess that was the intention but the early comedy screws up some of that messaging, that and I don't think Rey did a good enough job countering some of that cynicism. Anyway though, his scene in RoS does flow well from his state of mind in TLJ.

Jarmel (27608567)

Jarmel (27608101)

No, I think that scene would have always been Han. Kylo's biggest onscreen sin is killing Han Solo and he needed to face that to some degree.

Jarmel (27608178)

I think there might have been additional stuff with Leia, like expanding on the scene when she calls his name, but I feel that conversation with Han to some extent always needed to happen in order for the audience to semi buy in on the Kylo/Ben turn.

Jarmel (27607949)

That interview with JJ was pretty enlightening. His answer to the lightsaber thing is good. It does make me feel stronger about how Rian made a mistake making that part into a joke though. If one of TLJ's main themes is that Luke's attitude was wrong at the beginning then I don't think the movie did a clear enough job of that and the comedy muddles that message.

Jarmel (27601503)

I feel kinda robbed. A movie around that sort of Ben would have been absolutely awesome.

Jarmel (27597253)

Anakin also saved Windu from being possessed by Sheev. A true hero.

Jarmel (27597021)

We should all talk about how Vader saved Luke from killing Palpatine in RotJ now as he didn't want his son to be possessed by Sheev.

Jarmel (27596805)

Sheev did not ham it up as well as he should have.

Jarmel (27596835)

Oh I definitely have a problem with it. Same with Sheev being able to disable thousands of ships in space by himself without breaking a sweat.

Jarmel (27596628)

All of the force powers are just completely over the top in this movie and just detached from the other movies.

Jarmel (27596566)

He's not a Jedi though because Rey is all of the Jedi.

Jarmel (27596592)

He didn't inspire he could have simply flown to Crait.

Jarmel (27596524)

I like how Luke died for absolutely no purpose in TLJ now.

Jarmel (27586872)

My point was that Palpatine could destroy an entire fleet by himself so either Luke is a slacker or JJ is a hack. The movie breaks all of TFA though. Why have Starkiller when you have a fleet of mobile ships with the same power?

Jarmel (27586564)

But Palpatine could by himself end an entire fleet.

Jarmel (27581587)

It’s amazing how they didn’t buff this part out to some extent like having Ben flash to his childhood or just anything additional.

Jarmel (27581643)

Rey was dead dead. Kylo was dying but still alive.

Jarmel (27581341)

This is such a stupid movie, lol. Like what was the point of all of that if you’re literally going to kill him 10 seconds later?

Jarmel (27581405)

It’s definitely the best scene in the movie, some clunky dialogue aside.

Jarmel (27580768)

What’s amazing about this is how the movie largely works without the need for Palpatine until the final showdown. Like they could have had that as a legit endgame twist and they unintentionally ruined it for no benefit.

Jarmel (27580496)

I was dying in my chair in that scene. Shit is so lazy.

Jarmel (27580062)

That lightsaber scene with Luke was 100% directed at TLJ and Rian.

Jarmel (27579660)

It was by far the coolest scene visually in the movie. Makes zero goddamn sense but it looked cool.

Jarmel (27579535)

Ben changing because his mother literally just said his name because of a Force phone call had me groaning.

Jarmel (27579324)

The cinematography in the film is garbage outside the Rey/Ben ship/planet lightsaber duel and the Han/Ben talk. It’s an ugly film.

Jarmel (27579105)

This was a godawful film. The word I would use to describe is inept. That first half is probably the worst half of any Star Wars film to date. The second half is definitely better but man this is a bad film. i’m surprised as JJ always seemed at least competent and TFA is a vastly better film than this even with the rehashing TFA does.

Jarmel (27574680)

Just saw this. Some of the prequels were significantly better movies than this. The first half is flat out incompetent editing and storytelling.

Jarmel (27545945)

There’s ways of going about it and parts of TLJ felt like they were directly calling out Abrams for trying to adhere to the OT. I don’t know how else you can view how Rian treated Snoke. Rian thought Snoke was a stupid Emperor replacement and disregarded Snoke rightfully as the trash he is.

Jarmel (27545825)

That’s a valid interpretation to an extent. Part of the issue is partially how flippant Rian is about it. Snoke calling out Kylo’s mask for example is another one in that it’s clear Rian thinks something from TFA is stupid and will just directly call it out as such. If I was JJ, I would probably have been low key pissed when watching TLJ. Now again, I don’t blame Rian for any of it as JJ deserved it for his mystery box garbage in TFA. Rian and JJ view Star Wars almost in a fundamentally different way, which is fine in theory. The problem is Kennedy had them following up each other.

Jarmel (27544687)

A lot of things that JJ set to be important like Rey’s parents or Luke receiving the lightsaber, Rian thought was trash and threw that stuff in the bin. I think that was the right call on Rian’s part. The problem is that Kennedy went back to JJ which makes me think that Kennedy either got blowback about TLJ from someone or the themes went over her head or whatever. In any case, picking JJ to pick up after TLJ seems to have been the absolutely wrong call as why would JJ play along with a movie that so strongly disagrees with what JJ feels SW is?

Jarmel (27509673)

You’ve seen it?

Jarmel (27504218)

If you’ve been in the spoiler thread, I would advise you not to post ‘speculation’.

Jarmel (27503832)

It’s generally assumed to be about a year between ESB and RotJ. Yea it’s fairly quick but that’s at least some time. Rey’s abilities from TFA to TLJ are consistent, I find the problem more so about how quick her progression is in TFA. Sounds like the novels explained that though in a fairly convincing way with the mindmeld in the torture scene caused her to learn a lot of Kylo’s stuff.

Jarmel (27503395)

Or rather Luke got punked by Vader already in a movie and had a ton of build up both in terms of capability and also setbacks.

Jarmel (27503668)

Which cliffhangers? The major one was Han and we got all of the Jabba stuff at the start of RotJ.

Jarmel (27503168)

For all of my complaints/issues with RotJ, it has some of the best and THE best scene of the franchise. I will argue to the death that Luke/Vader’s confrontation on the Death Star II was the best moment of the franchise.

Jarmel (27503472)

ESB ended with Vader styling on Luke with minimal effort. Then there’s a significant time skip after which Luke largely seems to be competent. TFA took place in like a week. TFA and TLJ taking place in a 2 week time span has always felt ridiculous to me.

Jarmel (27501586)

Disney wanted and thought SW could be the 2nd MCU. That’s partially why they had the aggressive timetable. They initially wanted multiple SW films a year.

Jarmel (27501440)

$

Jarmel (27500793)

It’s interesting because in a vacuum that’s a good thing/theme but that’s never been what Star Wars has been about.

Jarmel (27498670)

lol that is definitely a ranking

Jarmel (27496371)

I think we’re almost to the point of fans begging for Lucas’s return.

Jarmel (27496140)

That is true to an extent as well. lol

Jarmel (27496061)

Amazing how JJ gave all that lip service to TLJ in public while saying “fuck it” in private and undoing it. Rian didn’t deserve this.

Jarmel (27495897)

My eyes nearly popped out of their sockets. A guy who LIKES the movie is comparing it to Into Darkness? Good god.

Jarmel (27491285)

Going to need receipts on that because uh that’s pretty wild to post to a public account.

Jarmel (27490499)

lol of course you would hold me responsible for that post

Jarmel (27490204)

Bad for her and good for her haters. Sounds like she got sidelined hard.

Jarmel (27489909)

JJ has made some duds before but I believe he’s at least competent enough to make something better than the prequels.

Jarmel (27489618)

We’ll see how the actual reviews turn out but I wonder if this was what it was like back in the day when RotJ came out.

Jarmel (27489309)

JJ came out with a toy lightsaber and started beating people in the audience.

Jarmel (27489163)

looooooooooooooool

Jarmel (27489197)

If this movie is worse than AotC, I’ll drink my own piss. Ehrlich is tripping with that take.

Jarmel (27488999)

oh god i cant take another movie of Into Darkness’s quality

Jarmel (27488646)

Yea I’m not sure how well this is going to review. lol

Jarmel (27488713)

If this reviews anywhere nearly as bad as JL, there’s going to be a bloodbath at Lucasfilm. No way in hell does it review that bad though.

Jarmel (27488318)

My main question is whether this is a better movie than Into Darkness or not.

Jarmel (27488245)

JJ makes a JJ movie. News at 11.

Jarmel (27486264)

Oh, JJ did a third Star Trek movie?

Jarmel (27470192)

What poor sap dreams to be an office worker?

Jarmel (27470224)

As awful as that sounds, it's probably the right call. Mainly because people won't trust autonomous cars otherwise if they don't know the car will place the highest priority on the driver.

Jarmel (27449134)

Then the trade was still worth it. Chips are more valuable than almost any amount of picks.

Jarmel (27448476)

Pretty much. That and the picks (who gives a shit about the players) means Lakers are going to be shit for most of the next decade. So yea, regular season really doesn't mean shit.

Jarmel (27448257)

For what you guys gave up for AD, you better win the chip or it wasn't worth it. Regular season really doesn't matter.

Jarmel (27441142)

No they didn't.

Jarmel (27434892)

I'm kind surprised how high Kirishima placed in both the US/JP polls.

Jarmel (27434699)

JP list is better outside of Hawks.

Jarmel (27432137)

Guys, Fox News/Beacon Research/Shaw & Co (the people who did this particular poll) is pretty solid. Fox News polling in general is fairly decent.

Jarmel (27431411)

Yea this looks to be breaking along party lines. Not surprised, out country is a fucking disgrace.

Jarmel (27436858)

Jarmel (27440958)

Brown's ass has to be on the chopping block.

Jarmel (27440820)

If 76ers don't get to the ECF then they need to blow it up.

Jarmel (27435097)

That's a good NBA player.

Jarmel (27435357)

That makes a lot of sense.

Jarmel (27434456)

If there are singular people within the Story Group overseeing all three films of the ST then I'm not sure they're doing a good job as we've heard multiple stories of the directors doing whatever they want and little about oversight apart from Kennedy and Kasdan, primarily in relation to Solo.

Jarmel (27434734)

That was my point in that Trevorrow was conflicting with Kennedy, not the Story Group. The Story Group is virtually never mentioned in any of these directorial conflicts. Lord and Miller were pissing off Kennedy and Kasdan directly, the Story Group wasn't mentioned at all in any of those articles talking about how Solo was a dumpster fire.

Jarmel (27432480)

That wasn't the intention but it should have been. Either that or have a singular writer working on all 3. I mean Treverrow got the boot because his stuff was different in a third direction. The only film trilogy in history that I think works/is considered great with different directors helming each movie was SW and that's largely because Lucas was controlling things both in a positive and negative way.

Jarmel (27432271)

Kennedy should have delayed 8 and let Abrams do 8. I think Rian made a better 8 then JJ would have but this is so much of a bloody mess.

Jarmel (27433817)

In theory that's what the Story Group should be however having a council full of people isn't the same as a singular person overseeing it all. I'm also not sure how much oversight that Story Group is providing: In addition, I'm not sure how many members of the Story Group are actually writers/authors and not just general producers.

I mean by all accounts, Trevorrowwas fired because he was having disagreements with Kennedy in regards to the script, not the Story Group. Some of this is impossible to know without working at Lucasfilm and seeing how much control/freedom there is in terms of individual stories and who talks to who but I'm not exactly convinced that the Story Group has much serious input/say on a lot of these higher level topics.A better case would be examining individual franchises inside Nintendo and there are definitely singular people that oversee certain franchises. The whole point of this discussion/argument is whether the Story Group is a good replacement for a person like Lucas and I haven't seen much evidence stating that they are. There were a ton of stories of Lucas possibly micromanaging everything SW back in the day. I'm not seeing a lot stating something similar for the Story Group currently.

Jarmel (27433946)

I would probably need to see a better example for me to feel their existence is justified as a substitute for someone like Lucas overseeing everything.So a Story Group member worked on the first two movies of the ST and not the final? Or he didn't work on any of the ST in which case how involved are the Story Group in overseeing the ST?

Jarmel (27433438)

I never once claimed that there should be a strict storyline that has to be adhered to. Saying there should be consistent oversight is significantly different than saying there has to be multiple scripts in advance that the director has to adhere to. Whether that oversight is in the form of a basic outline for the trilogy or just having identical people in place, I don't think it particularly matters. Of course you can get situations where the quality/tone differs even from the same person, the Godfather trilogy with Francis Ford Coppola for example, however the track record in regards to trilogies is historically better when there's a singular vision overlooking all of the movies.

Jarmel (27431307)

This is fucking wild. Going to be amazing for historians to look back on this era and see how corrupt our country was.

Jarmel (27415211)

The actor they got for Marcos Inaros is really good.

I don’t expect it’ll be that low but if it is then yea SW needs to be put on ice for a few years.

Jarmel (27393141)

I generally don’t wear mine but my uncorrected vision is good enough to pass the eye exam at my state’s DMV.

I absolutely loved this episode. Was probably my favorite of the bunch so far. Bill Burr did a pretty great job.

Jarmel (27364928)

I like it a lot, very sleek.

nani the fuck

Jarmel (27284018)

Man, people are going to be talking about TLJ for the next decade in both positive and negative terms.

Jarmel (27284185)

At this point I think it’s clear there needs to either be tighter supervision for future trilogies in this universe or that a single director needs to work on all of those films and know that it’s a decade commitment.

Jarmel (27264517)

lol at people thinking RE4 Remake isn’t happening

Jarmel (27266197)

As long as your answer isn’t Chris.

Jarmel (27227830)

Boyega’s acting in that scene is also really good.

Jarmel (27212902)

Rian said he had difficulty separating Finn and Poe from a writing standpoint and I think it translates over into the film in that he definitely didn’t understand how to write Finn well.

Jarmel (27204599)

lol I really want that sweater now

Jarmel (27201154)

Those designs are bad.This post on the otherhand is good.

Jarmel (27200031)

Horror-lite or whatever that transitions more into a traditional Ghostbusters movie. Even if it’s a redux of Stranger Things, I’m still glad they’re trying something new with the franchise than just simply bringing a bunch of old people on screen.

Jarmel (27199918)

The original cast is old as dirt and the original movies largely worked because of the actors in it. Makes zero sense to go for an identical tone of the original movies when there would be zero chance of even coming close. Going for something different while using the original movies as a springboard is a much better idea. The original movie also had tinges of horror so I like that they’re leaning more into that with this.

Jarmel (27199702)

I like that they’re going more for a horror vibe.

Jarmel (27199780)

Trigger stans, not even once

Jarmel (27179011)

The main band of the 2000s was probably Linkin Park and Chester Bennington was 24 when Hybrid Theory came out in 2000. He obviously suffered through depression for his entire life. I see little reason why he couldn't relate to a 16 year old going through something similar.

Jarmel (27178871)

So it's weird that people in their mid-20s were relating to people less than a decade younger than them?

Jarmel (27184311)

I absolutely hate that golden outfit at the end. Rest of trailer looks great though.

Jarmel (27178822)

I wasn't too impressed with the main theme but this was great.

Come on now. I love Knives Out but come on.Edgar Wright is a way better director than Rian.

Jarmel (27152776)

This looks so stupid that it might be fun.

Jarmel (27142642)

The art style in this chapter was significantly different. I wonder if a different/new assistant worked on it. Either that or Horikoshi is drawing the characters older and a more ‘serious’ fashion which is intriguing.

Jarmel (27130072)

This actually gets me hyped.

Jarmel (27140735)

This is fucking wild. Dude’s role was completely forgettable.

Jarmel (27092124)

Yea that’s true. The closest we saw to Prime All Might was in the intro in the movie and even that wasn’t peak All Might. People forget that all the feats in the manga/anime are him in a super weakened state. When he fought that noumu he said it took him 300 punches but in his prime it would have taken 5 punches. That’s an insane decline, that means he was around 60 times stronger in his peak. A guy who ran up the side of a super tall skyscraper in under 30 seconds is only at best 2% of his normal strength. Actually he might even be weaker than 2% at that point as he’s declined over the course of the series.

Jarmel (27052674)

Definitely the Batpod. I remember people were cheering in the theaters when that appeared.

Jarmel (27054225)

Congrats to the construction companies who will get fat off this and end up doing nothing.

Jarmel (27053668)

I wish people would stop showing gifs of the throne room fight from TLJ, it makes me realize how awful it's choreographed and executed. Some of that is worse than all the jokes made about the prequel lightsaber duels.

Jarmel (27053527)

TLJ has way higher highs but also way lower lows. I also think TFA is better constructed as a film even if it's missing the mysticism/spirtuality of Star Wars. I don't know. They're both super flawed films but in different ways.

Jarmel (27053102)

She has got jokes.

Jarmel (27049685)

She looked the part, in that she's got some muscles on her but also didn't seem out of place at that party.

Jarmel (27049458)

Yep, that's Bond. Based Fukunaga.

Jarmel (27049980)

The sequel trilogy music is definitely the weakest of the three trilogies, by a good margin too. I can't remember a single track from TLJ. It is what it is, I guess. It's probably about time for a change up of composers anyway.

Jarmel (27040649)

4/20

Jarmel (27027901)

Yea that’s about it.

Jarmel (27027564)

Comedy or if you’re making some academic point. If you’re using the hard r version then you gotta have a good reason for it. For white people in general, you have to have a GREAT academic need.

Jarmel (27039904)

Back on topic please, thank you.

Jarmel (27012114)

Die Hard, Gremlins, and Home Alone are Christmas movies.

Jarmel (26965058)

That's not anything new. Other industries have similar policies such as in animation.

Jarmel (26956186)

Kyon-kun denwa.

Jarmel (26885476)

Reminds me of the Toys R Us at Times Square.

Jarmel (26899844)

I'm starting to come around to this opinion as well. There are way more bad movies than good in the franchise now and really only one film was great.

Jarmel (26895956)

I fucking love this. That is some Batman tier shit.

Jarmel (26828692)

The man's blood is tomato sauce.

Jarmel (26871258)

Well the main relationship in the third one is Nancy and Kristen. Nancy was in a similar position as Kristen in the past and the two bond as a result.

Jarmel (26828202)

I recently did something similar and watched all of them in the span of a couple of weeks. 1 and 3 are good, I think 3 is probably better than 1. It's an interesting franchise as each movie brings something new or of value to the franchise and has a theme. Now that is not to say that they're decent films but they do have themes. Movies 5 and 6 are super bad though. You're going to be in for a rough time as you get into the later films.

Jarmel (26899814)

People play around with tire sizes all the time. If it's in a certain range then it's good.

Jarmel (26940738)

Burned disks will likely last longer than a SSD but you don’t want to use that storage format for large amounts of storage.

Jarmel (26899496)

Well I imagine she'll help them to an extent but she obviously isn't going to be bailing them out or letting them double dip. New management so to speak. I don't think though she's going to let them out to dry hence the line from the detective and the mug at the end.

Jarmel (26895300)

We, African Americans, don’t have to worry about being ostracized or killed by our own family either. The struggles are obviously different but that doesn’t mean there aren’t points of similarity as well though. People focus too much on the differences and not what can be used to bring us together.

Jarmel (26884343)

I think this is fine. He’s not saying it’s the same but that it helps him understand the perspective of another discriminated group.

Jarmel (26896533)

I hope the Nets and Celtics play each other in the playoffs.

Jarmel (26895676)

The movie pretty much outright says it with the detective saying he wouldn’t do it if it was him but he knows she’ll do something different and the final shot with, “My house, my rules”.

Jarmel (26822248)

Jarmel (26884109)

This was a fucking great film. Of the movies I’ve seen directed by Johnson, the script is by far the best Johnson has worked with.
