And he's gonna find that lost shaker of salt

It does a great job of condensing the important parts of the arcs it covers into 8 episodes, but it's still lacking a lot of the humor that I feel like is the heart of the show.

I still enjoyed it and would love for them to cover the whole series but that feels like a longshot considering how much more CGI heavy it's gonna need to get with things like new bad guys with crazy powers, new allies with crazy powers, and at least two more crew members that will have to be fully-CGI in order to work.

I thought this was Billie Eilish's movie debut, but it turns out Emma Stoned

I was thinking "Anthony Mackie is really channeling his inner Will Smith" after the first episode!

My wife has been watching OP for over ten years now. I always talked shit about it but never understood it. After being amazed by this movie though, I finally decided to give the show a shot and am so far blown away by how timeless it feels. It definitely has a lot of the typical shonen tropes but it's mainly a comedy with continuity and it really excels in the regard.

You were not exaggerating. It looks more like Minecraft than DRG. I was definitely expecting "Deep Rock Fantastic" but instead it's more of a survival game than anything.

I'm more excited about season 2 than I am happy with the first season. I liked Sweet Tooth's story and the characters in general except for John Doe. Both his character and Anthony Mackie's performance were really lackluster in my opinion, and it felt like Anthony was really forcing the humor the whole time.

Stephanie Beatriz killed it, as expected. I thought her backstory was really interesting and appropriately ridiculous for the setting.

I'm hoping season 2 leans into more of the car combat and the ridiculousness of the setting.

It's pretty interesting to see movie directors experience the same issues that comic book writers have experienced with these companies.

I know all about this. I drive for Uber on the weekends and I just overtake these things cuz they completely stop in the middle of the road to change lanes and I ain't got time for that.

These things are in Austin too and they cause smaller versions of issues like this all the time. We have a lot of major events throughout the year and I'm not looking forward to these things interfering with traffic more than they already do.

I haven't even played BG3 yet, but I wouldn't fault anyone for saying this. I lost a month and a half to TOTK and enjoyed every second. It fixed every gripe I had about BOTW, but that's kind of the problem as well. I always felt like BOTW was a glorified tech demo, and after playing TOTK, it felt more like the game BOTW should have been.

TOTK also has its own issues, especially with the story. The story just being told to you and not being something you're really experiencing was a weird choice. I was hoping for Ganondorf's involvement to be more than "it was me Link!" leading up to the final confrontation.

The final boss fight was an insanely awesome sequence though. Easily my favorite part of the game.

I remember hearing that it'd be similar to the recent God of War games but that's it.

City builders seem to be my comfort food. I go back to Banished every now and then to get my fix. I'm currently playing Kingdom Two Crowns to fill it.

Internet memes are Dawkins memes, you don't have to think they're not different when that's the case.

They wasted the Secret Invasion on this crap. We could have had a really cool mystery series that culminated into something grand, but instead they ran out of budget cuz they just wanted another mirror match CGI fight.

Who are you who are so wise in the ways of beans?

Reminds me of "Sir, You Are Being Hunted" which I like a lot.

Is this a bit? Why are y'all talking about this like it just happened?

I feel like they did it this way out of some kind of contractual obligation. Like they are getting paid to make a third season, not a specific amount of episodes. So as long as they continue to produce "season 3" they'll keep getting paid.

I can't think of any other explanation as to why they'd do this otherwise.

I think Hollywood needs Nintendo more than Nintendo needs Hollywood.
