Lit Apropos of Nothing - ACKBAR IN CAPITALS - The Lit Forum Social Thread, v2.0.15

Might by a mood thing, I just really did not care for it, whilst I otherwise really like such movies, this one just did not work for me.

 

Among such movies, I thought it was an exceptional specimen, myself.

 

It was solid fun. It's not a modern action masterpiece (THE RAID) but it was tons of fun. About the only thing that could have improved it would be a stronger lead.

 

I thought Keanu was perfect in the role, personally.

 

I think I liked the second Raid better than the first, overall. Odd to imagine the lot of them in TFA, though.

 

Seems I cried freedom a bit to early . Because of an misunderstanding in how the paper was supposed to be delivered to the university so am I not to be judged until next semester. Oh, well, at least I don't need to make a new paper.

 

So, Martin Freeman may be playing Evert Ross in both Civil War and the Black Panther movie. Color that casting a nice shade of inspired.

 

Deus Ex 3: Director's Cut is going for £5.79 on PSN.

I'm not really a stealth guy, is the game really more open in how you can approach things?

 

yes

 

I just beat the game last week, twice.

 

Oh, and the Marvel Universe is dead, or something.

 

Oh the humanity.

 

Picture taken from my issue, never before reading a comic I was so blown away I had to take a picture.

SPOILERS!

Spoiler

 

I'll reserve judgment on the whole storyline for the end, but the first issue suffered from Marvel's inability to coordinate titles. There were references to events that haven't been published yet (since they bizarrely have the 'final issues' of titles coming out after Secret Wars begins).

 

No relation to Thunderbolt?

 

I'm guessing Strucker.

 

Helen Cho is from the comics?

ETA: OHMIGOD AMADEUS CHO'S MOM

I like the movie twice as much suddenly.

 

Hell I had a nerdgasm when Klaw showed up and

Ultron rip of his arm

whilst no one else even seemed to care who that guy was.

 

Me about a week ago: "Oh, that My Little Pony show is now on Netflix, I watched the first episode a long time ago, let's see if it was that good."
Me three hours and eight episodes later: "I DIDN'T KNOW I NEEDED THIS!"

Just, what a marvelous show, with great characters and animation for kids like me. The Finnish Elsa plays Rainbow Dash, and sounds completely different, I guess that's called acting. But I'm a little nervous of how close to a total breakdown both the individual ponies and the whole society are.

 

That was very cool, and in case you didn't know there is also a Star Wars Easter egg connection related to that happening.

 

Given you liked that, consider checking out Archer and Armstrong from Valiant, as it's by Van Lente.
