  1. I remember when my sister made me listen to Joy Division when I was a kid because I liked her New Order album… It was brutal, being 10ish in the mid 80s and having to listen to Transmission and unknown pleasures was not fun. It wouldn’t be until the late 80s early 90s when I came back around on them. I was a Sparks kid, I liked their fun upbeat sounds vs Joy Division’s more depression filled post-punk synth sound
  2. Technically yes but not how you mean. They had like 4kb of ram and 4kb of video ram. No storage tho. That’s why some of the fancier games came with save batteries built into the cartridge like the Zelda, dragon warrior and baseball simulator games.

    I’m a Sheridan fan outside of Yellowstone which my wife loves. We usually know what to expect with his stories. Looking forward to this. Apparently my SiL and nephew will be in this show as well, I knew they were in shots with Billy Bob but it didn’t know what show he was filming
  4. Posted on the Appletv+ thread. Show is solid, lots of good cast. I feel like the role was written to let VV play his normal charming, sarcastic, shit talker self without being over the top or corny too often. Coroner is pure smoke tho!
  5. That V8 Interceptor would be the instant gratification choice but… I’ll take Doc’s DeLorean and I’d use it to jump around to different date and drive the other options off the lot for a bit
  6. This one hits close to home. If my career has had more interaction with one group it’s Los Zetas. One of our sadder stories was Allende. https://www.propublica.org/article/allende-zetas-cartel-massacre-and-the-us-dea Also someone I worked closely with was interviewed in a nat geo show Narco War, season 1 ep 6 rise of the narco army Go watch it if this show is interesting to you. Also Somos on Netflix OCDETF till I’m buried.
  7. I’m hooked on Posty and Shaboozey lately
  8. We started this last night, first 2 episodes and we were entertained. Vince Vaughn allowed to be his quick talking sarcastic joker with a good heart. ME chick is smoke!!!
  9. Knowing that Krennic is gonna be in this, I would love to see Krennic be the one to give Luthen his last moments. That could be a great face to face. Between Luthen’s “so what have I sacrificed? EVERYTHING!” And Krennic’s “I lose nothing but time!” I’m so freakin excited!
  10. Never finished this and it’s still in the top 10 Al time for me. It is amazing but I’ll never find a moment in a game that rivals crossing into Mexico in Red Dead Redemption. Bother of these titles were so far and away more interesting to me than GTA.
  11. As I enjoyed Shaboozey’s new album and getting hyped for Post Malones country album I found this and now it’s stuck in my head!
  12. Ok so finally getting around to replacing my cellular dead stealth cam. Solid camera but the $20 monthly unlimited during hunting season is a bit much when looking at other cams. It looks like 2 of yall here use Reveal Tactacams, thinking about it and the unlimited plan is $13 a month. Which camera do yall have? I’m thinking the reveal x 3.0
  13. I found out about them in the late 80s randomly forgot about them and then was reminded of them by Tiny Toons…. With Istanbul & Particle Man
  14. And that’s the problem. I feel like this coulda been a completely stand alone entry. Instead they kept forcing in KAM and Yoda which makes “stand alone” moments instead become “wait did we just rewrite key parts of Ep 1, 4 & 7?!?” They picked a time period that was ripe for exploration, even introduced some interesting Jedi and dark users, had a theme that coulda been interesting but instead of exploring, I feel like they divided that their path would be divisive and forcing the “issues” And lastly I feel like the writing left way too many arcs all screwy and poorly answered if even answered
  15. I did that once with my dad’s ‘64 beetle… He was a ref and we always had old whistles laying around the house… one day I thought it would be funny to tape one of them to his bumper. It was to me. It was not to him. I got in some well worth it trouble. [emoji1787]. I shoulda put it under the car like that
  16. I just hope that in S2 we get a proper back story for Schmi Skywalker. Like she was a massive hutt slut that got around with all the Gamorreans but got in a little too deep financially. And her last big move was pulling a heist on the Tuskens for one last spice score but Gardulla the Hutt double crosses her and instead gives her over to Watto as a slave. Thus we really find out Anakin wasn’t the force reacting to Plageuis the peeping tom but instead he was the Force providing balance to Tatooine by becoming Vader, keeping Boba Fett alive and employed and thus restoring order to the Tuskens and Hutt cartel. Boom! Smash wipe to Darth Bane secretly alive with his pet Sarlacc watching from a sand dune!
  17. Sadly you named only Ezra that kinda makes your point. Ahsoka is no Jedi. Yord and Jecki were killed off right after being introduced so they are a non-issue. Sabine was a failed Jedi, like Osha but at least was committed to the rebellion thankfully instead of whatever Osha decided. That was the creative part of Ezra and Kanan, Kanan struggled with order 66. Ezra struggled with his connection to living creatures and the force, he showed his weakness at times to the dark side but resoundingly found his path along the light side. I know I’m being narrow minded but that’s what pissed me off about the shitty writing here. There was so much potential to get creative in a window that could live within itself and instead it decided to shit on known characters including Yoda. And this is worse than Luke throwing his (and his dad’s) saber off a cliff despite Rey bringing it to him… If Skeleton Crew does some crazy story line introducing an arc that presents Jabba the Hutt as a secret Sith master or some shit I’ll lose my mind. /s
  18. Well going forward the Jedi are the evil ones. So maybe Baylan when he gets recast. I woulda said droids were still ok to root for but Pip providing evidence that further reinforces all droids are sith until captured and reprogrammed.
  19. lol if you mean Della Guardia that dude is in Loot with Maya Rudolph. He acts totally normal in that show but in Presumed Innocent, he’s acting style is weird. My wife and I both said why is is being so weird?!? And Peter “not a Skarsgard” Sargaaaaard is great in this. We are 3 in and I never saw the original but my wife did. I think this might be the only Han Solo movie I never saw
  20. My daughter said that they had less money but had to put more in for reshoots but I can’t find any confirmation on this. But yeah for $180 it did not feel like it.
  21. I like it but man I throw a lot of INTs… Also I can’t wrap my head around the new zone read/rpo/etc controls. I fake myself out half the time. I’m already getting beat down by the drum line beat in the main menus. I’ll be turning that down soon. I like that there are 2 “big game”(ESPN) and “broadcast” (abc) teams but man this really woulda been a huge opportunity to go big by adding the “fox” crew of Gus and Joel as a 3rd team. I’ll forever hold EA NCAA basketball in high regard for having the ESPN vitale crew and the CBS Kellogg crew for 2 different broadcast feels. FIFA/EA FC has down this with the overlays but they only do a league and national announcers. Someone needs to do a “rpo for surly dummies” on here because I’m struggling.
  22. Also the ep3 & 7 rashomon bit failed miserably to me. This didn’t show the same story from to different lying perspectives. Instead to me it basically showed snippets of a story and then the unraveling of that story. I don’t care if they made parts darker when Sol was being bad. The whole point is to tell the same story from multiple liars. Bleh I’m frustrated with this show. Everytime I jump onto X more engagement farming pops up with terrible views or just outright “yeah but this saber play was better than anything ever!” [emoji2359]
  23. Well he says he wants an acolyte. Going off canon, that’s a role for the apprentice when he decides he going after the crown. Sith master Sith apprentice Sith acolyte/assassin
