Two films that you THINK are about racing. But really - they are about so much more. First - RUSH Next - not to be outdone - Ford Vs Ferrari Both films are FAR Deeper than you might think. Rivals and Friends. Fathers and sons. Honor and Glory. Friendships that stand when everything else goes to hell. They are perfect bookends to each other. You want a movie night with a shared theme that your significant other isn't expecting to like, but will LOVE? These two films will absolutely wind up as favorites.

Salute to you, sir. I've been on quite a few of the raids and iTrials that you led. Rest well. But I do expect to see you again. You just need to get past the burnout. I cycle through a handful of games myself. I understand this process. I stave it off for weeks and months with my game cycle and other things. You've staved it off for YEARS at this point. It will take a long time to not feel that on return. Go play other games. Go catch up on reading books or comics. Watch movies from your bucket list. Heck - go travelling in the really REAL world! Take pictures! Also - come back to the forums and say hello even if you don't log into the game. Share what's going on with your life. People here care about you. You've made friends. Post pictures. Tell people what's going on. Your friends care. I recommend not going complete hermit. That's my recommendation. And I don't even know you that well.

I think this is the best version of Captain Azure Dupree so far. The cyber-eye is still a bit on the weird side. But it'll do.

Oh... I see your bet. And raise you... Alucard from Hellsing into Twilight. Just for the memes.

I found this bit of amusement on Quora by someone named Jonathan Glen: I bet you could find an excuse to have a scene like that work in an upcoming Spider-Man film. I think you'd HAVE to play it as comedy - and homage at the same time. A comedic callback if you will. And it totally goes with the light-hearted Spider-Man portrayed by Tom Holland! Almost "Jackie Chan as Spider-Man" if you get my meaning!

That complete lack of hesitation at the end there IS A MOOD!!! Also - this is a reminder that the REAL challenge to writing good supervillains is to make their goals either unachievable via normal means, or to make the money gathering only the TINIEST part of the overall plan! 😆

This is - low key - one of the most terrifying brags I've ever heard! MY MAN!!! "OFFENSIVE SECURITY." Oh dear. Oh my. My advice to any script kiddie trying to play tricks on this man? RUN!!! Some of my favorite comments on the video above so far have been:

That backstory and overall look is bizarre enough for this guy to either be the next member of the Doom Patrol, or one of their latest round of enemies. Either way - Nicely done!

I have to echo Lightslinger's sentiment. You can tell where the influences come from, sure. But you're NEVER going to get called out for outright copyright infringement! Which makes it the best kind of homage there is! That right there - is MONEY!!! 👍😎

Oops. Sorry guys. So noted and edited.

Oh boy... EDIT: WARNING: The man is reviewing an entire season that was binge watched - NOT single episodes. So there are SPOILERS per episode in the following video. Yeah - I think I'll be giving this one a pass. A HARD pass.

Just binge watched both full seasons that we have to this point. It's interesting. It takes a few stylistic cues from Anime. But it's not anime. If anything - it's more like a level or two removed from anime - a decent comparison would be the original Avatar The Last Airbender. If anything - it's mostly a Shounen anime style with ever so slight Shojo flourishes on occasion. And - since it needs to be said in this day and age - there are a few "modernisms" creeping in around the edges. But here's what saves this show from being "woke". The main character - Kal El - Clark Kent - Superman. It's him. He's slightly different in how his powers are shown developing and how he's discovering himself. But that's part of what makes the process refreshing. But - let me say this again - so you understand. IT. IS. HIM. It's the same lovable corn-fed adorkable CLARK that informs the very BEST of what Superman is. He is STILL that classic character. Younger than he's been presented before. Almost a "Superboy" rather than "Superman". But not quite. But - he's an effective HERO. He's a stand-up moral person. Even a decent male role model. You know what this show reminds me of? In very broad strokes? - Lois and Clark: The Adventures of Superman - the Superman show from the early 90s with Dean Cain and Teri Hatcher. I can't explain it better than that - but it's got some of that vibe going. Truly - the Clark from that show said something that I think the Clark from this show would agree with: "Clark Kent is who I AM. Superman is what I DO." And - what would a hero be without good villains? This show has some FANTASTIC Villains! Believable Earth villains. Mercenaries - Gangers. Mad scientists. Government agents gone wrong. A very interesting take on Lex Luthor that I didn't see coming as soon as I should have! Villains who have their own agendas. Villains who can actually turn on a dime and HELP Superman if the motivation (or the MONEY) is right. And possibly the most deranged version of Brainiac I've EVER SEEN. That MONSTER will give you CHILLS!!! The VOICE work for him ALONE should win an award! And a new take on Supergirl that starts off as a redeemable villain with a costume that almost looks like she stepped out of Evangelion and winds up with an AWESOME character arc that allows Superman to do what only HE could possibly do to bring her back from the brink and help her be a true heroine!
