    SIAP Is BirdsBuddy the play? Sale right now on the solar version and I'm dangerously close to pulling the trigger. TIA
  2. Great movie. Reminded me of classic sci-fi, you know, optimistic and strong (to very strong) storytelling. Didn't notice anything woke, so probably going to get snubbed by the Oscars. C'est la vie.
  3. Star Trek has been dead for a decade, to be generous, and there was little chance of it being redeemed. The cancellation of STD and STA mean nothing if the creative forces that greenlit that nonsense still have the reigns and learn nothing from their abysmal performances. But, Doomcock, at least, has hope. As we were taught by Star Trek of old, maybe there is reason to feel optimism after all.

  5. You're a real one, AHB. I need to check out Lower Decks. Im not going to respond to the rest, because fuck dude, but we agree on a lot and disagree on some important parts. Just know, I read all that shit and I appreciate you caring more about Star Trek than the retards who own it.
  6. "Woke" is a uniquely modern construct, not a synonym for progressive. It's certainly not as used by people who dislike dreck like SFA for the lack of compelling characters, disregard for in-world truth, and generally insulting writing. Star Trek was progressive, and a lot of its charm was its intelligent challenging of modern norms- that is not at all what SFA is capable of achieving. Not even the same galaxy. It's pretty obvious, if Star Trek was always woke, then why dont Star Trek fans like wokeness.
  7. Sorry, man, but this hostile cultural takeover has proven to be a catastrophic failure. Impressive in the scope of its completeness, tbh. You faggots oversee a graveyard filled with countless once-proud, once-profitable IPs, surely you can spare us Neanderthals just one of them back?
  8. Here's to hoping they stop making this slop for an audience that obviously doesnt exist and start making "Star Trek" again, fans of which who very obviously still exist.
  9. This thread should have created in the Hobbies forum. My bad. Not many new games got played this past couple of months, but a lot are in various stages of painting and deluxifying, so until then... Zombicide: Night of the Living Dead: We dig all the Zombicides we've played, but we keep coming back to this one. Probably because we like the movie and this one keeps giving us some thematic narrative fun on top of the dice-chucking action. Another one that we revisited was Witcher: Old World. I painted all billion of the miniatures before we played it, so I'm sure much of the attraction is just obligation to use them. It's a fun game, if a little long for the experience. Kingdoms Forlorn was not the replacement for Oathsworn like we'd hoped. So much clunk. So much. Hella clunk. If you are into spreadsheeting your adventures and really enjoy looking up obscure rules and keywords while adventuring in a smallish, repeated world, this one's for you. Another Polish game with a lot of clunk is Nemesis: Retaliation. But its clunk is cheeky and fun. I can't explain it. 9/10 Would play again. A near clunkless game we played (again) was Quacks of Quedlinberg, this time with all the expansions. No better normie game exists. If you have in-laws that want to play a game, you could do worse. No strategy, just random hateful luck. More Dying Light, too. This one has grown on me. It's also a game that non-hardcore gamers can grok yet still give the lunatics who do this too much something the chew over. I'm trying to avoid painting all the little ships. In prep for a Lord of the Rings game day, I 3D printed a large Barad-Dur model for ambiance that probably takes up too much table space. But I wouldn't go if I couldn't go overboard. Also, the Dead Reckoning crate always looked a little bland, so I fixed that. Excelsior.

    Honeymoon isn't over yet. In preparing for a Lord of the Rings themed game day, I finished resin printing Gambody's Barad-Dur model. After a few weeks of printing, glueing, painting, and lighting I can finally cross this badboy off the to-do list. Not a single thing failed, but initially using mixed resins caused some dimensional shifting that need to be fixed. This thing has so many very small details, like blade sconces, that will snap if you so much as look at them funny. The question now is, do I print the matching Minas Tirith? Middle Earth for scale: The Bambu is likewise still rocking and rolling without much issue. After printing a bunch of masks for the movie room wall, I tried my hand at metallics and made a Samus helmet from the goat game, Prime. It went into the video game room straight away, in the place of honor - center over the TV looking down at the playing position. Couldn't be more happy with how the metallic effect turned out. I'm tempted to give it some blast damage scoring... I have a lot of projects I'd like to tackle and now, for the first time, I feel confident I have the tools to do them. So much power... Maybe too much power...
  11. Amazong footage and awesome concert. The goat doing goat things.
  12. 9/10 season. With episode 1 and 2 proving the showrunners had the capacity for fuckery, they managed to largely avoid those instincts from there on and ended up sticking the landing. GOT needed this palette cleanser.
  13. This is going to set the new floor.

    Workspace 2.0™ is coming along nicely. Not pictured is the HeyGears wash station which vibrates too much to put on the main shelf here. The Bambu H2D is on its own stand since it can vibrate pretty wildly, too. I think for optimal OCD I need another shelf of spool containers, but that would require to move the boxes of filament somewhere else which would lower the feng shui of what's going on here. I also put a Vornado Transom directly behind the HeyGears RS Turbo to suck the toxic air out so someone else can deal with it. I'm hosting a LOTR War of the Ring board game session and movie get-together in a few months and am in the middle of a multi-week, non-stop resin printing marathon to create Gambody's Barad-Dur model as table decoration and ambiance. After ~25 auto-supported, auto-oriented, and auto-sliced plates so far, NONE have failed. That blows my mind. I can't believe people have been living this way. Owning both the Bambu and the HeyGears have been remarkable and hobby-changing.
  15. Although this industry has done nothing lately to earn the benefit of the doubt, I choose to believe it's a self-deprecating wink wink. Since the majority of the production time of MOTU was spent in the Dark Times™ of the last decade and a half, we won't know until we torrent it, I mean pay for a ticket and watch it. Idris Elba's existence here suggests they are fully capable of ham-fisting this (Ham-Fisto'ing?), but hope springs eternia. /heyoo
  16. It's the silliest cope in this whole ordeal full of silly shit. Star Trek was never woke, and it was never close to being woke. It clearly had progressive elements, but that's not woke. "Woke" is an entirely other deranged morass of slop and brainrot. Roddenberry's Star Trek is dead , so Star Trek is dead. Y'all are obviously free to enjoy whatever this is, but it's retarded to compare it to Roddenberry's vision. They don't even share similar DNA outside of two words on the title screen. This is impossibly dumb.

    ngl 3 pages in 3 years is better numbers than I thought the Grammys would generate, even with half of it being just Derka talking to himself.

    "Game of Thrones is better than anything by Taylor Sheridan." Like, bro, SpongeBob is elite tier. 😂

    Landman, Tulsa King, and Yellowstone all in the top 4. The highest budget show at the bottom of the list, which is being made for an audience that doesnt exist. Maybe this is a sign that the great correction is coming...
  21. I don't think you understand how desperate we are...
  22. This should just about be the final straw. In an era of routine IP slaughter, ST Academy is the new standard for "unmitigated disaster." Expect some big shake-ups regarding this IP if Paramount intends to make something lasting, or elevate to the now lofty goal of breaking even.
  23. BoomMF replied to RPM's topic in Movies and TV
    Just caught up to the they/them episode. 😂 Landman must be protected.
  24. BoomMF replied to RPM's topic in Movies and TV
    Just got to the episode where doofus and the chick break up. Good, Taylor got some feedback and wrote her out of the show, I think to myself. Then we follow her becoming a bartender, which she's even LESS suited for than being a love interest!!! FML Taylor, you're killing me here. Can we get one more oil rig explosion please? Maybe one recently built in the middle of a bar? That would only be the 4th silliest thing to happen on this show in 2.5 seasons.

    There's a gem on his first solo album, Every Little Thing About You, that he described as "if Led Zeppelin did country" and it's a perfect description:
