    New Eminem (2020)

    Listened to the first few tracks on the album. Shit's awesome so far. Definitely looking forward to listening to more. Watched the video but wasn't really listening. Will have to give it another shot at some point and pay attention.

    [Gaming Chat]

    That game is probably going to get fucked for a lot of reasons but primarily because it doesn't actually look very good so far.

    2020 Notable Movies

    A lot of these look great. As far as what I actually go pay to see in the THEATER... Wonder Woman 1984 Ghostbusters: Afterlife Bad Boys for Life (maybe) Eternals Black Widow Birds of Prey (maybe) Rest is up in the air. I basically go to the theater for comic movies and watch the other stuff at home. Sometimes I go to other things on a whim though if I just want to go see a movie.

    Birds Of Prey (2020)

    Better trailer though in general.
  6. I think people are aware there is an entire universe for Star Wars. I get frustrated at the way Hollywood treats people like they are literally retarded and can't understand anything even a little complicated. I think the Marvel movies, CW DC shows, and Star Trek Discovery actually show that people can handle insane comic book typethings like alternate universes and time travel just fine. If they can handle that, making movies in a different era of the same universe should really not be a stretch. There's just so much history to explore from the EU (even if it's non canon it can be MADE canon or modified a bit).
  7. Perfect description of the new trilogy. It was a fun diversion but ultimately...meh I feel kinda bad for her because I'm sure it is not 100% her fault but she is presumably the one that let them start a trilogy with no fucking plan in place among other things so that definitely seems incompetent (at least as far as Star Wars is concerned). I see she gets a LOT of hate and I never really knew who she was much except that I knew SOMEONE was responsible for how meh Star Wars is. We need some new blood. Some things I've heard about for the future are at least somewhat promising even with Kennedy still in place but I feel like they just need someone better. They need a Feigie for Star Wars (they've even talked about having Feige take some control over Star Wars). https://comicbook.com/starwars/2019/12/15/star-wars-movie-kevin-feige-status-update/ Let's get more Favreau and Feige up in there and bring in people with interesting ideas. No more films about the Skywalkers. Fuck all that. I'd prefer we just be finished with this time period quite frankly. They already fucked up tons of story possibilities with Luke, Jedi academies, etc so just throw the shit out and go somewhere else (reports about a movie set in the High Republic sound interesting).
  8. Forgetting it isn't really surprising since almost nothing happened lmao. Best thing we can hope for is that they use the EU stuff in the new canon piece by piece. There's definitely a ton of interesting stuff and nothing says they can't use it (they're "legends" right now). It's sad because the Star Wars universe is so fleshed out that they have endless stuff to pull from. I'd love to see some of these book series made into movies or even tv shows and cartoons.
  9. Wasn't that going to be the GoT guys that completely fucked the last season beyond all expectations? If it was them, good riddance. https://variety.com/2019/film/news/game-of-thrones-creators-star-wars-trilogy-exit-1203386590/ Granted the first 7 seasons of GoT were obviously great (well more or less) but that last one makes me never want them to take on something I like again. Rogue One was good I think primarily because like I said, the trilogy thing is cancer for creativity (though like you said, one director for all 3 movies or at least a fucking PLAN would have helped obviously). Probably easier to make one good movie than try and spec out a trilogy. Things can be like little stand alone stories. They can also be trilogies with a fucking plan. Or quadrilogies. Honestly they should just start adapting book, game, and comic story lines since those are fully fleshed out. Less chance of them doing something completely retarded. Yeah if she's the one in charge and the movies are bad, she needs to not be in charge. They need to pull from the EU because there is a shit load of very creative shit going on there. I just feel like the movies stay in this tiny little safe area where it's the exact same shit over and over again and they never branch out into something actually different. Like imagine seeing a movie where force users actually use all kinds of crazy powers like all the time instead of like barely at all. Wouldn't that be fun to watch?
  10. I don't know why it's so hard for them to make good Star Wars movies. Like actually good. They have nailed Star Wars in so many other mediums (I mean KOTOR fs was incredible and I still think one of the best Star Wars properties period). I wish they could capture some of the magic of that extended universe in the movies. Maybe if they finally stopped making movies about the same narrow fucking time period and redoing the same shit. Also I think the trilogy format is a cancer to creativity here. Go make cool shit about the beginnings of the Sith and all the shit we've seen in the extended universe. REALLY jump into it. Before the rule of two for the Sith you know? Show some cool historical shit and show some shit in the future enough to be removed from all the Skywalkers. The Star Wars universe is a really big place and the movies make it feel SO small.
  11. I will probably have a different feeling once I watch it again, of course. There was a lot of stuff in the movie though that was just really cool to watch that I find myself wanting to see again. I still think it's a better movie than TLJ but if you said they were both not great movies, I'd probably agree with that.

    Happy New Year!

    Happy New year! This is spot on. We're living in the future and this is what we have.
  13. I liked it. Just a hot take since I just saw it like 2 hours ago but I liked it enough. There was a lot of just really cool stuff.

    Typing speed

    Also true lol. I fuck up a lot when I'm going really fast because my fingers hit out of order or I just fat finger things.

    Typing speed

    I definitely cruise slower. Just because you CAN type fast as fuck doesn't mean you go 100% all the time right? Getting above 100 honestly gets fucking ridiculous. I have a hard time making my fingers hit the keys in the right order because they are all moving so god damn fast.

    Top Gun: Maverick (2020)

    It just seems super lame to be rebooting this one tbh. I dunno. I guess we'll see. Sometimes these things work out but it is pretty rare. New Independence Day wasn't exactly a smash hit.

    Free Guy (2020)

    Forgot to come back to this topic to watch the trailer. Finally did. This looks like...well Ryan Reynolds being Ryan Reynolds but that's just fine. Probably not a run to the theater to see it kinda movie but I'll watch it when it comes out to buy.

    Typing speed

    First attempt: Retaking a few times, lowest was 92 so far. I did unbelievably well on the first one. Averaging 97-102.

    What the fuck is Christmas?

    I had to go look up what it actually was. Fucking dumb. Unicorn that poops glitter. Jesus christ.

    What the fuck is Christmas?

    Haha just the cover. Just as well though since they haven't released white fans yet and I actually like the white even though I wouldn't have bought it myself. Not sure what that is. Like the stupid loot boxes for kids basically? I guess in our day that was Pokemon cards.
