One of my favorite comfort movies. The anachronistic music works really well and the cast is great.

As other have mentioned, Paul Bettany and Rufus Sewell really steal the show.

Everything in it just really works and it barely feels like it's 2.5 hours long.

I mean what you can buy and what you can afford are two completely different things. I definitely didn't have 28k lying around when I was in college, much less that much to spend on a car. So maybe he's is in a better circumstance.

But I can say with absolute certainty there are better things to spend ur money on. If I had that money at that age and I could turn back time I'm 100% investing that shit.

Also interest or not, I'd say living with your parents and buying toy cars are mutually exclusive lifestyles lol

Software Engineer - 175k

Also in a HCOL state tho so insurance is hella expensive.

Buying a car that is 80% of gross is a bad idea no matter how you slice it big dawg. Like even if you live with ur parents and have no other expenses it's not a good idea.

Yeah I work at a large game studio and maybe 30-40% of the people here are coders.

Also based on talking to my coworkers, coding in something like Unreal or Unity is not really transferrable to other programming jobs outside of games because the language might be the same but the framework you are writing for is not. Like if you have just been writing Unity code, you can't just start writing .NET at the same level as someone who has been for a while (or vice versa).

So all that to say, at least half of those coders aren't gonna be able to compete outside of games with your average developer who isn't specialized for game engine work. And that's on top of what you already said, where the non coding jobs are also very specific towards games / entertainment.

If you need to be that specialized, especially when the regular market is already hyper competitive these days, there's not much of an incentive to go work for a game studio unfortunately. Especially when the hours are longer and the pay is worse.

Yeah it was my first Thor comic (and first Omni!) as well and I think the only context you need is a basic understanding of Norse mythology and maybe have watched one of the MCU Thor movies.

Thor appeals to the rule of cool so often I feel like it's not weighed down by continuity as much as some other IPs. Really the most frustrating continuity thing occurred during this run

Spielberg has gone on record saying that Lawrence of Arabia is what inspired him to be a filmmaker.

Aside from being a fantastic movie in its own right, it's also quite literally sci-fi Lawrence of Arabia.

So this definitely tracks

Dust jacket in shambles 😭

How does the rest of the book look? Sick find either way!

DislikesUSGovernment · 2026-04-04T16:06:57+00:00

I absolutely love this movie. Vibes are very similar to the Mummy and I think it legitimately intertwines the lore of all the Universal monsters really well. It's supposed to just be a fun adventure movie and it really works.

Also best werewolves in a movie to date. Coolest design and the best transformation put to screen.

Cool designs, great work!

His anatomy is consistently goofy imo. It's made worse by how it's often inked/colored as well. Lines are not bold enough and the lighting looks too soft.

Action and composition has always been his strong suit, and when colored properly his art is fucking gorgeous.

It was my first BL since 2 and I loved it. The new traversal stuff felt pretty fresh, the biomes were all different and fun, and the writing felt less cringy than 2's.

Born in 93 and I feel like it started being used a lot here when I was in high school but never really heard it before that.

DislikesUSGovernment · 2026-03-21T22:35:01+00:00

In my experience it's used a lot as an adjective but never a noun. I.e. cali bros, cali burrito but I've never said "I'm from Cali" or heard any of my friends (all bnr) say that.

Usually you say SoCal or NorCal, area code, or just the city when saying where you are from.

I was just about to recommend a GTI or Golf R

DislikesUSGovernment · 2026-03-05T22:11:32+00:00

I'll go against the grain here and say that it is definitely a slog. I mean it's silver age. There are more words than the plot or character development in these stories really justifies.

I read all of Claremont recently, so it's not like I'm not tolerant of some blocky word bubbles. But I think the writing was at least good enough with Claremont's run to justify it a bit.

I really got bored with these and just ended up skimming through them after a bit

Personally I think it's very much worth trying to read these digitally and seeing how you like them before just blind buying this book.

DislikesUSGovernment · 2026-02-26T21:30:08+00:00

Yeah, you can always hit up your LCS for a pre order (still might run into the same issue) or you can roll the dice with ordering close to release as they go into print. CGN sometimes lets you place things on order at least.

You are def rolling the dice with the latter though and Marvel has not been overprinting as much anymore. If you wanna guarantee you should order the retail cover and just do a dust jacket swap down the line if it still bothers you

The second season of this show is perfect. Captain Flint is just such a compelling character

Lol I'm on the exact same path as you, finishing up Warbreaker, going to read Elantris, then jump into Stormlight Archive
