It's going to be a long time before I can see this, so I have to ask: Did Hoult shake the sweetie pie persona well enough to carry the role? Was his portrayal up to Spacey's simmering menace and utterance of "Now fly." after he shanks Supes with a piece of kryptonite? That's the bar. Did Hoult reach it? Spoil it to make a comparison, it won't bother me.

Well, that's one way to get him to relax.

If you're implying that I was banned, I wasn't. I was bored, then I was fighting fascism and digging graves, and now I'm here again. I do step outside of this place once in a while.

I did. Use an old, working version and edit the database yourself.

Yeah, no, that's bullshit. The databases aren't the reason Mids' has turned into a steaming heap. It's everything else that they've been doing. They fucked up the GUI in every way short of disabling it completely. They switched to Edge Webview, which is ridiculously resource-intensive, in a push to redesign the foundation in a way that would allow them to pull power data directly from the game files, but after all of these years, they're still making entries and changing things manually. And the way the program uses those databases remains unnecessarily complex in a pointless attempt to be a perfect copy of how the game works, yet instead of simplifying and streamlining, they keep making it worse. There are bugs, like memory overflow crashes when you try to delete an entry in the database, and Mids' original misspelling of mutual as "mutal" that are still unaddressed despite all of the things they've been doing to "modernize" the program. And functionality drops every time they do idiotic things like locking Uniques in a way that disallowed using them in the alternate build, and scrolling no longer working like it used to because they felt a pressing need to put an extra ten acres of empty goddamn space behind a scroll bar, and stats jumping all over the place in the info panel when you're trying to compare different powers. Their attempt at redesigning the program threw away so many useful options and viable features, and we can't even work around the losses easily. It's a fucking dumpster fire. When it even works, it borders on unusable, and they made it uglier and less stable. They took a functional program and fucked it up, and people have been patiently waiting for that to pay off. Years later, it's still getting worse with every update. Turning a good, useful tool into shit for free is still turning it into shit, and "they're volunteers" doesn't grant an exemption from criticism either. They're fucking everything up, and have been for a long time. Do not try to justify that, or tell us that we should smile, nod and let it go.

Also what she said.

Series 5. NICE.

That's what she said.

@Snarky can barely figure out how the latch on his coffin works. And he's the one who put the latch on his coffin. He's going to need that in captain dummy talk, Kaylee.

You're kidding, but Dredd showed that Urban has immense range as an actor. He had that helmet on for the entire film, he had nothing, really, but voice and body language to develop the character, and he blew it right out of the water. It's rare to see a performance that impressive. Kurt Russel in Soldier, he had almost no dialogue throughout the film, but he conveyed numerous complex emotions with nothing but expression and body language. Hugo Weaving in V, couldn't even see his chin, but he absolutely nailed every aspect of the role. The number of actors who can pull this kind of performance off, who can carry a film while working under limitations like this, is very few. Urban is one of that few. And if there's another Dredd film, and Urban isn't Dredd... well, it's up against Urban's Dredd, and it's likely to lose. His performance made that character shine. I don't envision another actor pulling it off as well. Needs more Karl Urban!

Pft. A well built, and well played, dominator or controller can solo team-sized spawns just as effectively as any other AT. Tell the tank to lead, follow, or get the hell out of the way.

Needs more Karl Urban.
