I am too shocked.Reptilians are putting fluoride in the water in order to calcify our pineal glands and prevent us from spiritual awakening
Wait, what?! That's not true?!
I believe you, MSJ ... doesn't mean the "ghosts" are real, but I believe you believe what you're telling me.Since there was interest in the story, a lot of people here claim that things happened to them, but as I said, superstition is high here. I only believe one case. My cousin dreamed that her grandmother from her father's side died. She only told me and my other cousin. A month after that, her grandmother died.
Red ... do you know of anyone where you live have an "experience"?
Huh? Aren't you the guy who was saying that TUC may not be ever released, back at April when it was all but out?IS IT SO WRONG TO HOPE!Wait, are you saying you don't expect brightly colored garbage when watching ANY Star Wars movie?To be fair, it's supposed to be a children/young adult movie. So a deep plot is not something you should expectYeah I know. First thing I said was that it was my fault lol.. I personally don't like SW too, btw.
If I went in expecting brightly colored garbage I probably would have been pleasantly surprised.
Never been a huge star wars guy.To be fair, it's supposed to be a children/young adult movie. So a deep plot is not something you should expect
I was hoping for some plot and was disappointed. My fault, really, expecting that from an action movie.
I think I'll stop watching star wars the same way I've stopped watching super hero movies.
The movie itself was middling. Too long, bad pacing, too many fights and explosions that lead to scenes that should have been emotional just falling flat.
The the two jedi and two sith did a good job. Skywalker et al actually had some good moments discussion something that could have been deep, but its left extremely surface level and then buried under several battles too many that its difficult to really say what it was they were driving at.
As others above have mentioned, there's definitely some social commentary in there that I find more interesting than the movie.
I would think, since only the Light side has found a way to survive death, that every generation the sum total knowledge of the light side and the force would increase for the Jedi - even if there are fewer of them. Conversely, since every sith master ascends by murdering the previous one, there would be a hording of knowledge that would simply not get passed down. With this dichotomy, I'd honestly expect the dark side (which might be easier to get stronger, faster) to be so diminished at this point for lack of proper knowledge transfer, and the jedi to be so strong for their infinite life and teaching, for there to be no contest between them. The sith should be at a remarkable disadvantage.
I'm glad Rey wasn't a Skywalker. I don't think it makes sense in-universe for force powers to be heritable.
Some great moments throughout, but largely not a good movie.Also, why did Holdo not just tell Poe Dameron the plan, I feel like that would've made the whole situation way easier. And couldn't the First order just flank the rebels with Tie's? Or send back up to intercept them? Or send their own ships to surround them? Instead of just waiting for them to run out of fuel....Badly written plot.
Felt the same thing - no reason for them to keep their plan it a secret. Nor for Poe to not simply tell people wtf she was planning.
I was hoping the 'twist' would be that Poe was working for Snook in some capacity and betraying them all.
Its embarrassing that the solution to "wow they are fast" was "lets wait several days for them to run out of fuel" instead of "well, we know where they're going - straight - lets do a light speed jump into their path, aboutface, and attack. Oh, and lets scan known-space for any planets just in case"...Yeah, they could have done literally anything else.
Again, if Poe was an inside man, it makes more sense that they didn't want to kill her ... Kind of, ok only just barely, but at least it provides some excuse.
As for the kamikaze - stupid. Again, bad plot. If a ship of a certain size can light-speed-jump through an armada filled with literally dozens of ships bigger than itself, not to mention a ship hundreds of times larger, and destroy the whole thing ... why haven't they been doing that? Math checks out - make light speed ship, auto-pilot, blow up entire armada. Could have an xwing do it instead of the mothership, but whatever.
The series in general seems famous for deus ex machina. Almost nothing happens that isn't explicitly a contrived plot device. I, for one, am sick of utility droids hacking into enemy military tech and/or repairing literally anything with a blowtorch.
Luckily the best parts of the movie were the parts revolving around the force and the sith/jedi, which, tbh, is the only reason I showed up, so at least there's that. The fake-fight was great.
. I personally don't like SW too, btw.
Honest to God true story.Btw MSJ, I believe you
ETA:My sister has a ghost in her home now. And, its in her basement. She let ghost hunters come there and all. They said they never been a place where they see. So much activity. Now, this is a different house. I think ghost just like her....or follow her.
As to wether you believe it or not, well this didn't happen to me, just I was there and the stories aligned spot on. Hence, seeing my Dad shaking. A man who doesn't believe in a higher spirit (God) or Ghosts or any of that shit. He is show me the proof type of guy. Well....I think that I never knew of it, because they didn't wanna scare me and no way my wife knew about it, made him convinced it to be true. She (the Ghost) was never mean my sister said. Just sat and looked at her and walked away. Same thing she did to the wife. Yea, so it's not me making this shit up, it never happened to me.
ETAA: this was at least 10 years apart. We remodeled when my sister moved out. So there was two rooms down stairs. I got the new one, my brother my sisters. If he experienced anything he didn't say anything. I never ever seen the girl in my life. But, remember many times feeling the sheets pulled or my face touched, just chalked it up to imagination. Can even remember my name being said, but chalked that up to being half asleep.
Its real bro. In our house now, we just moved in. Its probably 50 years old but remodeled. My daughter comes to bed every night saying she sees things. Imagination? Or clarvoiyance crime the women of the family?
Mom, said her father would come to her with red roses and the next morni g their was always red roses on the table at Breakfast. And she swears, and my mom is not a liar, that no one knows how they got there.
Again, none ever happened to me. But, the women in our family experience it am the time. They don't even get scared. My sister tries to communicate with them.
Sorry, can't resist. She had some device the Ghost hunters gave her that would allow her to ask questions and the ghost would respond. But, it worked for no one but My sister. She asked the Ghost about all of us with us in the room. He said I was a giver and some might thinking weak, but don't mistake kindness for weakness, I was proud. Now, here's where its funny, my BIL was going through addiction, he walked into the basement and without a question being asked , the device said, "there's a train wreck if I've ever saw one." I laughed for an hour. But, it convinced me, and that my sister has a connection.
Frankly, I am hurt. I stay up the whole night alone in the dark, with nobody else in the home and they never bother to say hi.
Lmao.I still can't understand people who didn't LOVE Kellhus dying.
Well, I thoroughly enjoyed the Proyas rape scene, was looking forward to more of that ... sigh
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hSJM9qF0txwYeah, I was going to post that but I am too lazy. This made me add SC: R to my must buy list.
+1 for ShaeI am pretty certain that Quint have already did that one.
Consider new territory: Kellhus ass-raping Proyas
I could probably shreck you all in any RTS, nothing personal.1v1 AoE 2 anytime
Give me a year, and I may be able to 1v1 you in SC2.
Play AoE, not SC. AoE is superior. Give me one month Wilshire, and I will 1v1 you in SC2.I've been playing a lot of Dawn of War III lately, a real time strategy game based on the Warhammer 40k property. It's very similar to Warcraft III, where you build bases and units but with an emphasis on hero characters. The art and animations of the units and landscapes are awesome, unfortunately it might be the last time we get a game in the vintage mold of the genre with this level of production values.
I've had my eye on AC Origins, been hearing lots of good things about it. I just haven't been able to get into big budget action/role-playing games for a while. I really liked Horizon Zero Dawn on PS4 but it was hard for me to get excited to play it and I gave up upon reaching the desert area. I feel like I'm really aging as a gamer where I just want to play computer strategy games but I might check out ACO when it goes on sale.

I haven't played any Dawn of War, but I might put that in the maybe pile.
Currently playing ACO, its fun but still an action-rpg, just heavier on the RPG this time around.
I might recommend you check out Shadow of Morrdor or its recent sequal - simply because there's a bit of army recruiting/building, though its ARPG too.
I know what you mean. I used to love RTSs and RPGs equally, but have found in the last few years more difficultly getting excited about RPGs, even when I pick one up that I've been waiting for a long time.
BTW, you should play SC2.
More with Dark Souls III. The Nersei Proyas build is complete and I am now playing with Drusas Achamian. Honestly, he's probably the best build I've ever had. Then again, he's pure intel, so....
I love all the words in that sentence, lol. DS3 Proyas or Akka build would be very satisfying - easy to Role-Play, especially post-TUC (you need to finish reading it!).
Don't say bullshit and Malazan in the same sentence again, TaoSpeaking of Malazan. I'm 82 % complete with Gardens of the Moon. Paran reminds me of Proyas, except the latter is more potent a character, imo.
Any good or is it bullshit?
