Re: Star Wars spin-offs put on hold due to disappointing Solo returns.

The problem with Star Wars is that it doesn't really invite itself to a MCU-type franchise. Marvel, in both comics and movies, have a large emphasis on the individual characters. The Avengers film may unite those heroes for a tale, but they are still intriguing and capable of holding their own. Star...

Re: Linkara ATFW's 500th Episode

Well, I guess as a digital being Chuck will be able to deal directly with copyright bots. :) I'm so far enjoying the episode. Of course, any ripping of the New 52 is always an enjoyment. And of course the whole Brother Eye analysis, with the wasteful assimilation and uncompelling motivations, was we...

Re: Orville - Old Wounds

One of the big problems is that the show has a hard time determining if its a comedy or if its a space drama. For a lot of episodes it seems to want to be a space drama, but then insist on throwing in jokes where they aren't needed. Its trying too hard with the comedy, simply put. I think some episo...

Re: Freedom of speech officially dead in Scotland

This man is an idiot. But calling this a hate crime is really stretching the term. Why have said category? Because hate crimes aren't crimes targeted at individuals, they're targeted at groups. When you beat up a Jewish man and leave him bloody in the streets of Austin, it is not because he slept w...

Re: Are the wast majority of rigth wingers less fond off the superrich than 10 - 15 years ago?

Someone got a bit drunk when posting this... I don't think there has been any significant change on that front. After all, right-wingers just elected a billionaire to the presidency. As the above poster stated, I think for most right-wingers they don't have any strong opinions either way about the u...

Re: DC Comics General Discussion [Spoilers]

Injustice 2 #46 Well thats anticlimatic Ikr, climatic plot-twists really don't work when the audience determined what the twist would be months ago. So DC is shaking up the majority of its line up due to No Justice and apparently ALL Super Family books are getting cancelled cause the Bendipocalypse...

Re: Star Trek (Dis): The Butcher's Knife Cares Not for the Lamb's Cry

Like the security officer in this STD episode. Nobody cares that she died. She showed up, had some lines, did something stupid while attempting to appear all badass, and died, having served her purpose to the plot. so, basically, she died just like any other red-shirt. Eeyup. More dialogue than a t...

Re: Star Trek: Discovery - spoilery thoughts?

Did not like the ending, but liked the series. Hope they keep the anthology promise, next season should be about Saru and a human protagonist bouncing of each other and having adventures. Being co leads. I do hope the next season does more character development, or at least character development th...

Re: Star Trek: Discovery - spoilery thoughts?

I'm not against Star Trek having some sort of message, but the finale did get a bit preachy. Especially noticeable at the, in my opinion, lackluster and just odd ending speech by Burnham. It's like they decided to make up for their otherwise lack of speeches throughout the season by cramming them al...
