  1. Oh geez. not everything is manipulated or cherry picked. I just happened to parse part of a list for the newer movies (see below) and then individually looked up the movies at boxofficemojo.com @biostem I think that Disney / Lucasfilm was half cash and half stock. @PeregrineFalcon The story below makes it sound like Disney earned the investment back. That's why I'm asking if I missed something. I'll look at the video linked by ShardWarrior.
  2. Correct me if I am completely wrong, which ones were meh? Star Wars: Episode 7 - The Force Awakens (2015) ($2,071,310,218) Rogue One: A Star Wars Story (2016) ($1,058,684,742) Star Wars: Episode 8 - The Last Jedi (2017) ($1,334,407,706) Star Wars: Episode 9 - The Rise of Skywalker (2019) ($1,077,022,372) I want to understand where you are coming from because, to me, it doesn't look like they are losing money. (I went to Galaxy's Edge and it was amazingly lavish, treat yourself if you haven't gone) Maybe I am naive here, but boards tend to be steady and forward looking. The Kennedy move looks like succession planning. Is it that she has dirt on someone, or has been more consistent and successful than almost everyone sans a handful. "Kennedy has produced films which have earned over $11 billion worldwide, including five of the fifty highest-grossing movies in film history. As a producer, she has received eight Best Picture Academy Award nominations."
  3. Yep.. but that's the number that was released and the movie will eclipse $300M this weekend.
  4. Grosses (thru 2/25/25) Domestic (49.5%) $145,631,098 International (50.5%) $148,368,477 Worldwide $293,999,575 @PeregrineFalcon Budget publicly stated by Marvel/Disney as $180,000,000.
  5. City of Data v2.0 https://cod.uberguy.net/html/power.html?power=blaster_support.darkness_manipulation.soul_drain&at=blaster Duration looks to be 30s
  6. [image removed] could be close..
  7. @Snarky see what you are missing out on?
  8. 210 accounts logged into the forum at this time an additional 102 guests viewing the forums (could be bots, searches, etc) 'x' number of new accounts per day (x being a larger than expected number) If reasons for not utilizing those channels even occasionally include unwanted exposure or increase threats.. we are likely already there.
  9. Hasten is an active power. It can help teach players about recharge, chasing perma, timers, blinking icons, and endurance management. In my opinion: Only after tackling endurance is a permanent Hasten more beneficial to a character than keeping their toggles up. New characters learn lessons from how some of the powers work. Sure, if we skip to 50 with each new character the preceding statement becomes less relevant. Making Hasten a toggle or inherent could be a bit more complicated than it may appear at first blush. Possible, sure!
  10. /mental will be there when you are ready.. and you will be a godlike death machine
  11. um.. even redsiders do missions to further the cause. it is always excellent to see a passing "whoa that's Troo, they wrecked Black Scorpion big time"
  12. ..end of story 😛
  13. Search Proc Monsters Good place to start: There should be a version of the above for the AT you want.
  14. not the first try at computers trying to create builds. it's not gonna do the character justice but it is interesting.
  15. really, 'just as much as anyone else'. thats what your are gonna hang you hat on? 🙂 and you seemed to have missed my point while basically agreeing with it.
  16. https://www.boxofficemojo.com/release/rl2597421825/?ref_=bo_hm_rd I love folks trying to armchair quarterback Disney. Really?! Folks think Disney is losing money? Even on movies you and I may not like, they are making money. Even when they spend more than they bring in they are making money. It's just they are playing 3d chess while us knuckle draggers are playing checkers.
  17. this is correct if we are talking threads of time versus seeds. "Ouroboros is displeased that you have chosen to disrupt the order of this time stream. You have left us with little recourse but to reset and restore. Enjoy the chaos you have sewn in this doomed timeline with what little time you have remaining."
  18. I wish we saw more creative builds that showed the value. Slows combined with -ToHit are very very effective together. Toss in a disorient and it feels like a cat playing with mice.
  19. 'should' sounds like more than a suggestion or feedback. recognizing "User-created content" as a different thing than "In-game content" is important and you've done that. policing player actions / creations.. i wouldn't want that job if i was paid. i've have had characters generic'd. even if deserved, it can be frustrating. that said, it's not the hill i would want to die on.
  20. @Mopery they arent as comfortable to ride as they look. kinda tiny for larger toons. but boy are they fast.
  21. I'd rather just move Burke into the safe area, off to the side or in a corner. Leave the spawns as is. I like the street sweeping and running back to safety if needed.
  22. Another example. Note: Don't get me wrong, I love redside. I bought City of Villains. I never really knew anything different so it was what it was and I thought it was great. When I did go to blueside it was much much later and it was just easier. So I can see why those who start blueside get turned off when they give redside a try. Why bother if all the ATs and other stuff are available from Atlas. Entering the game message You have arrived in Mercy Isle. If you want to work with Arachnos, report to Operative Kuzmin. If you are a Destined One, contact Kalinda. If you prefer mercenary work, talk to Matthew Burke. Use the Find Contact button in your Contact window if you need help to locate them. {Didn't read that before you closed it, good luck..} We could also provide a little better direction here for anyone who skipped the tutorial. "If you want to work with for Arachnos, report to Operative Kuzmin." "If you are a Destined One, contact Kalinda." (what the heck is a Destined One?!) (This contact is closest and easiest to find) Burke.. Given the feedback players have provided over the years, WHY NOT MAKE THIS THE FIRST EASIEST CHOICE! Burke is not easily accessible. Being around the other side of a building out in the hazard area. A player may have to get past a number of purples.. "Use the Find Contact button in your Contact window if you need help to locate them." (What? Where is the Contact window? They aren't on the map or highlighted?)
