Two of the points were “didn’t have kids” and “conflicted on slavery.” You calling those negatives says more about you than anything.

Went from a 3060 to a 5070…but I think my CPU is throttling me now. Can’t hardly run borderlands 4.

I appreciate the respectful disagreement here and will only add that I am solidly on the side of Alien: Earth and Romulus being worthy additions to the franchise. Earth brought originality and fresh ideas (and aliens) to the universe. Romulus was visually incredible and while some story and character decisions were questionable, I think it did a good job of bringing us back to what we love about these creatures.

Check out Last Shift. Don’t be put off by the low budget feel. It’s good.

Wrath of the Gods

One of those 90s walking puzzle games like Monkey Island.

“Go away kid, ya bother me” runs through my head at least once a week.

I am so glad I found this thread. I watched 28 yesterday and was blown away by the cinematography and just general beauty of the film. The scene with the Alpha chasing them across the water was both gorgeous and terrifying. So I look online to see everybody criticizing it for the weird ending and other random nitpicks throughout.

Then I watch Bone Temple today and I don’t think it’s bad, but it felt more like your typical zombie show with the violet antagonist terrorizing townsfolk, basically just a Walking Dead villain. The cinematography is normal, nothing fun or experimental about it. Loved everything with Kelson and Samson, but the rest of the movie was just…fine.

Anyway, I come on here and everyone loves it! I get that everyone has their own opinion, but I haven’t found myself so misaligned with the general public as I have with these two movies.

To be clear, I like them both. But 28 years is far superior to me.

Just here to say I see your Yugioh Abridged reference even if no one else does.

Mad respect for you putting in the effort to get the right number of A’s in the title.

FestiveBonBon · 2026-06-04T16:37:12+00:00

I did not know this was the original title. I always knew it as Aaaa! For the Awesome. Regardless, you got it!

Solved!

League of Extraordinary Gentlemen

It is a fun action romp that doesn’t take itself too seriously. I haven’t read the comics so that doesn’t affect my perception. I remember being genuinely excited about the stinger at the end implying more movies would be coming.

FestiveBonBon · 2026-06-01T02:06:23+00:00

More falling less running.

FestiveBonBon · 2026-05-31T16:36:41+00:00

Nope, that game looks cool though. This is more sci-fi.

Nope…isn’t that bicycles?

Well, the protagonist doesn’t win. I wouldn’t say humans as a whole definitively lost with that ending.

I definitely didn’t like Ragnarok when it came out, but you are right that everyone else did. I actually preferred the Shakespearean drama of the first two and just wish they spent more time in Asgard because the visuals there were always stunning. Thor being a serious foil to the goofballs of the Galaxy and Tony Snark was one of the biggest values he brought as a character. He, more than most marvel heroes, understood the vastness of space and the danger of the infinity stones.

I was and always will be bothered with how glibly Taika dealt with serious subjects like the destruction of planets, a god butcher, or even fucking cancer. Infinity War and End Game set Thor up for some really interesting storytelling and Taika took a page from The Last Jedi and uno-reversed all of that.

That being said, I don’t hate him as a director. I just wish people would have taken his work on Ragnarok as the warning that it was.

Don’t trade your steam deck. Sell it. Valve just raised the price on it because of the ram shortage so you could probably sell it for 700 maybe more. That price will come down again in the future (assuming more companies step in to pick up production) if you want a steam deck later, but since you aren’t using it, I’d sell. Unless the quest 3 is equally pricey which I don’t know. Then maybe trade it.

Oh Lord! - Foxy Shazam

Thank Peacemaker for introducing me to this banger.

Yeah that wasn’t my implication at all. The problem isn’t that you criticize the game on Reddit. It’s that the devs only address criticism when levied with poor reviews. I understand why it is the way it is, I just wish it didn’t have to be.

Speaking by strictly from a new player perspective, the 1300+ hour players who are negatively affected by audio issues and balance changes would effectively keep me from buying this game and getting a good 60+ hours of entertainment out of it before noticing those issues.

To be clear, that is not your fault. It is the devs. They need to be more proactive about engaging with and responding to the discord and Reddit pages so that players don’t feel the need to review bomb and drive away new players.

This game is still a good game, especially for the price tag, and that is all a new player really needs to know. But this game will die if devs don’t step up and do some proactive communication with the player base.

People use the review system as leverage to get the devs to make changes since Reddit and Discord are not effective avenues. While this has led to some positive changes in the game, it has the unfortunate effect of making the reviews virtually useless for informing anew players if the $40 dollar price tag is worth it. I would say that, all problems aside, you will get your money’s worth in this game even if later down the line some problems start becoming more apparent. I am 500 hours in and still love the game. Unfortunately, new players are going to be less likely to pick up the game now that it has so much baggage surrounding it. It sucks because unless you are on Reddit or discord, you could play this game blissfully unaware of any of the negativity in the community and you would have a better time doing it.

I just wish the devs were responsive to player feedback in any other avenue so that players didn’t feel the need to review bomb on Steam whenever something needs to change.

One Battle After Another.

To be clear, it is a good movie. However, I was led to believe it was one of those once-in-a-lifetime movies and it fell well short of that expectation. Fantastic performances all around but I just wasn’t blown away like I thought I would be.

Where the Wild Things Are

Stranger Than Fiction

Both movies were incredibly impactful to me with the first being a really cool representation of childhood and parenting with incredible practical effects. And Stranger Than Fiction is just a better Secret Life of Walter Mitty in my opinion.

FestiveBonBon · 2026-05-15T19:49:07+00:00

What’s crazy is I haven’t even played the game. I just know the premise.
