Watching WWE Smackdown tonight in Berlin and there was a Urbanmech sighting tonight. It ended up getting squashed by a Annihilator

Finally caught Blue Beetle.  I actually loved it..  Was surprised at all the negative reviews i heard of..  Not sure why they were that way..  It was funny as heck.

Well, a lot of people are feeling burned out on origin stories, and DC films for the last few years leading up to BB's release had basically annihilated any goodwill people felt for the franchise.

And dare I say it but there's a vocal and unpleasant segment of the fanbase that's made it their mission in life to trash and review-bomb anything they perceive as not catering to their specific and narrow set of tastes.

Welp, I tried watching Rings of Power Season 2 episode 1, but it was so awful I couldn't see more than 5 minutes of it. That's a part of life I will never get back.

nautilus season 1
a ok take on julius vernes 20k under the sea book with kevin j anderson elements taken from nemo
would had been better if the forced theme women are strong and all  men are clods and stupid would not had been forced into the story...
i still enjoyed it a bit more than the version of it with michael kane from 1997 which had very strong female character and was balanced with the story
and nautilus itself looks as classic as the disneys 1950s nautilus
btw some one already made a 3d stls for the ship already and it looks beautiful...
and pics of current and 1950s model side by side are breath taking in their design

btw i may hav a bias since i always loved the 20k leagues under the sea for book and movies
you sure cannot out run death...but sure as hell you can make that bastard work for it!

Hmm, I didn't even know such a series existed. I'm a fan of classic sci-fi so I checked around and...

Looked promising since Captain Nemo seems accurate from the source material, but... it got cancelled after 1 season. And its a Disney production, so I wouldn't want to touch it with a ten foot pole since they've done nothing good for the past ten years (except Mando S1 and 2).

I’m pleased to report that Big Trouble in Little China is just as good as I remember.

heard there might be a sequel in the making... I know that it is a stretch but I am hoping that it is better than the sequels, prequals, reboots currently being churned out.

I have trouble believing that any sequel this many years removed from the original could be better.
