  1. Got news of what my bonus will be this year... I'm very happy with it
  2. To give you an idea, we could talk openly about the book and would only spoil one minor plot point. The movie itself is pretty much self contained and has a resolution.
  3. https://youtu.be/57SNPbxi0r0
  4. Annihilation was a great movie. Terrible adaptation, if you care about such things, but it's a strong work on it's own. Kinda like Kubrik's The Shining in that sense. Saw that Veronica movie on Netflix people are crowing about. Terrible movie.
  5. Is that the one that was supposedly never going to be released because someone broke into his house and stole it?
  6. You have a couple more missions before you open up the fourth area. Then you'll have a string of involved cut- scenes with your favorite handler!
  7. Though Lord of the Rings is certainly fun, I prefer Arkham Horror. Mainly because I like the deckbuilding better. I don't know how solo works with LotR, but if it's like Arkham, it's certainly fun though I don't know what success you would have with true solo.
  8. Off to see Annihilation in about an hour! Should be a fun, family friendly flick!
  9. It's a common characteristic of the superhero genre, so no, it's not a spoiler. Though I like that it makes sense in this case.
  10. Yeah @Draginon. What I hate most about it is not only the obsession, but people will be genuinely upset if they are wrong and use it as an excuse as to why the movie/book is bad. Star Wars and A Song of Ice and Fire have issues, but not conforming to your fan fiction or head cannon? That's not one of them.
  11. You should see it. Talking further about it might be considered spoilerish. I will say that the director stated he made the movie to be enjoyed by everyone.
  12. Any sequel I leave out of the running because it can not stand on its own. So for example, Civil War you need to watch both previous Captain America's, both Avengers, and really almost every other Marvel movie for it to make sense. So though I thoroughly enjoyed it, it can never be the best because it's a development of the universe and not really defining or creating the universe. In a Sanderson example, The Emperor's Soul is his best work in part because it actually stands on its own. That's my thinking anyway.
  13. Definitely in the top 3 MCEU movies, and I could see convincing arguments being made that it is the best one. It definitely has the most substance and the best development of an antagonist out of all the movies (in other words, they do a lot more in one movie. Loki required two movies before becoming a memorable antagonist). It also helps develop the MCEU towards Infinity War without being beholden to it at all. It fits perfectly in the timeline and is essential to setting up Infinity War, but if every other Marvel movie disappeared it would still stand purely on its own merits. One does not have to see any other Marvel movie to understand and enjoy Black Panther. As far as how it fits with other comic book movies? Only Logan gives it any real competition.
  14. So 2020 has been posted as a date for Walk in the Shadows (begin writing? Publishing? I don't know). Having that tentative date makes me feel a whole lot better about the series.
  15. Curse you, Otis the Otter!
  16. Having my evil schemes foiled by a semi aquatic mammal.
  17. Yeah, if you treat it as a button smash you're going to have a bad time! Training with a weapon like Sword and Shield should help you get a hang of things. Things get better with the lip sync (there is not as much) and though I think you can turn off your partner talking during a quest, you probably want to wait until after you get used to things. Potions and Mega Potion are incredibly easy to make in this game, you just need to gather herbs and honey and the game should be set to automatically craft them. I'll post some videos that should be helpful. So, this is a decent general video where the person does not pointlessly start talking about impact and slash damage. I'll be on the look out for videos on other specific topics. Edit to add: @Briar King rather than overwhelm you with videos which may just complicate matters, I found this group where you can seek personalised help from veterans. https://adoptahunter.org
  18. Drats! I'm PS4. I'm enjoying it so far, hopefully you have a good experience, too! I've heard hushed whispers that the XBox version had some bugs to work out to begin with.
  19. Water picks are fantastic! Waaay superior to flossing.
  20. Welp, I survived and got a great year end performance review! Still bad news because it has been two days since I've played Monster Hunter World.
  21. Whelp, gotta drive out into this snow. If I don't check back in, avenge my death!
  22. Pffft, California Rolls aren't sushi... it doesn't have raw fish in it!
  23. And I have a hard time understanding why anyone would like it!
  24. We have a lot of idiots over here that will spread the flu when they have it and are moronicly opposed to the flu vaccine that comes out every year.
