Are you saying that you've never seen it before?  :shocked:

I have a very delayed schedule for consuming new media. I’m pretty sure I didn’t play the first Gears of War until the third one was about to come out.

couldnt you escape? what did they do?

To me all the best quotes came form Lloyd Bridges himself Admiral/President Benson
from the first "If personally flown 194 missions and was shot down in everyone of them, come to think about it I've never landed a plane in my life"

Roar probably would have gotten a more positive reception had CN not canceled their Thundercats reboot mid season.

And speaking of Thundercats, there's a new comic book series that just came out from Dynamite Comics.  Picked up the first issue today, thought it was decent- going to have to see what sort of direction they're actually planning to take things.

The artwork is pretty good aside from Tigra's very weird facial hair.

Been doing a watch of some of the youtubers, who do commentary/spoilers on upcoming marvel films, and it is set, for the four folks doing the roles for the up coming Fantastic Four film..  Two i've seen and liked, two i've not heard of...  Till now.

SO i am very optimistic about this marvel cinematic universe version.  BUT I am still irked they didn't keep the same actor for Reed Richards as they had in Dr strange 2.. 

BUT the bigger point i noted in one of the vids, is who they say the big bad is gonna be..  Galactus and Silver surfer..  HOPE they do justice to them.

Well, they certainly can't do a worse job that what we've previously seen.

The Silent Service on Prime.

Japanese live-action version of the Manga. I believe a movie version was released last year in Japan?

I have been watching a video podcast on youtube called the Unauthorized History of the Pacific War.

Its pretty good.
We hear that there are tumults and riots in Rome, and that voices are raised concerning the army and the quality of our soldiers. Make haste to reassure us that you love and support us as we love and support you, for if we find that we have left our bones to bleach in these sands in vain, then beware the fury of the legions.

Watched The Marvels, liked it enough to wonder about the negativity about it, then remembered mysogyny.

Caught up on S2 of Halo.....now I have to wait.  :cry:

I finally got around to watching Justice League: Crisis on Infinite Earths Part One.

I never actually read the original Crisis on Infinite Earths comic, so I don't know how closely it follows that story, but from what I can tell it's a pretty faithful broad-strokes retelling.

It suffers from horrible pacing issues, which is not really surprising since it's part one of three, but once it gets to about the midpoint things pick up quite a bit.  Can't really give it a full review until after the other two parts get released.

had you caught the fan edit of dune 1984? the 2018 version is good much closer to what lynch wanted before studio dumbed it down
found it on youtube by accident when i was looking for quins ideas about his look at god emperor leto II
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vJykw3H4PDw
only diff over the previous edits this one had been digitally cleaned up and navigator scene is really cleaned up and visually its not as jarring

I don't think that Forbidden Planet or The Fly were b-movies- way too high of production values for when they were made.  But I definitely recommend showing them the classics.
