Re: So, What comics did you buy this week?

They're finally touching that era, and reintroduced the Nagai... and it sucks?

Man, you have to try to fuck that shit up. I know they're kinda hamstrung by the plot of the sequels, but the previous runs have been hamstrung by the OT and didn't stink.

Re: What have you watched lately?

The first three Fast and Furious movies were on Tubi. I had them playing in the background while doing other stuff. I had managed to never watch Tokyo Drift before. Wasn’t missing anything. The series got ‘good’ with the fourth movie. By good, I mean ridiculously implausibly goofy over the top car ...

Re: Celebrity Death Pool!

Jill Sobule, 66, died in a house fire.

Terrible, terrible way to go.

Also, she was 66? Fuck. I mean, it tracks, if she was in her mid-30s in the 1990s, but, damn, this shit makes us all feel old.

Re: star wars

Hasbro's prices have increased at far more than the rate of inflation, even accounting for tariffs, and the selection and overall quality have gone down. I think the newest TVC figures that were announced were going to presale at $19.99-$22.99. Those fuckers should be $12, tops.

Re: How I realized I was over Star Wars completely

She and Bail are the main protagonists of The Mask of Fear. Where she canonically shits herself. But it's a book. I'd kill for another show. Everyone is seeing why those of us geeky enough to read the books in the 90s loved her. (And, yes, she shits herself. It's not for laughs, nor some inexplicabl...

Re: RIP Star Wars comics

I've been taking a breather before jumping into KOTOR (and planning to play the game in the proper points in continuity). But all of the quality inconsistencies of the entire Tales of the Jedi series of miniseries was worth it for Redemption. That was a fucking masterpiece. I just wish there was a t...

Re: How I realized I was over Star Wars completely

Andor is just fucking amazing. I absolutely love that we're getting the darkest, best acted, most intellectual SW in the same show with way-the-fuck-deep dives into Legends, like bringing up the fucking Rakata at least once each season. (Fewer allusions per episode than Ahsoka. But it actually makes...

Re: So, What comics did you buy this week?

The thing that's either a blessing or a curse with High Republic is that it's incredibly intertwined. You have to read all the adult novels, young adult novels, kids' novels, adult comics, all-ages comics, and manga, as well as a few audio dramas, to get the full story. All together, it's a really s...

Re: What have you watched lately?

I think I'll wait for streaming. There are some fucking horror stories out of cinemas. I'm not scared, but I don't want to waste money on a movie I'm prevented from watching. My son (who thinks "chicken jockey" is the funniest joke ever and, damn, even with my stupid sense of humor, just d...

Re: Three Random Thoughts (aka Randolph Mantooth!)

1. How much you wanna bet that US based companies will start charging a ‘patriot tax’ because they think they’re missing out on all the “profits” other companies are making off of tariff surcharges. I bought a ton of shit last weekend because I have no doubt something along those lines will happen....

Ran, have you not seen Tropic Thunder? Correct this immediately, please.

Side note, Cruise is uncharacteristically hilarious in it.

Re: I hate to be the bearer of bad news, but...

I saw that, and hate it. This fucking dipshit donkeysucker has snowed so many people into thinking he's going to make America better, and his quarter-wit whims are going to fucking destroy us. This shit will take generations to fix.

Season 4 of Jurassic World: Chaos Theory.

Camp Cretaceous was Jurassic World's Clone Wars, a better-than-expected animated series running simultaneously with a mediocre trilogy. Chaos Theory, then, is Rebels, upping the ante to give us what's easily the best JP-verse story since the original.

Re: So, What comics did you buy this week?

Marvel spoiled Venom's ID on a Facebook post WEDNESDAY MORNING.

I'll admit I'm out of it with the Spidey titles, but that seems unspeakably wrong.
