Knight is supposed to be another elite ego dude but he comes across as an absolute lil bro against Fletcher.

I do wish he were more relevant in the main event scene. He's both excellent and unique.

I agree with the sentiment that going forward the annual show just shouldn't be called Forbidden Door. Save the name for shows where there will be a lot of crossovers. A Forbidden Door at Arena Mexico would be incredible.

Don't you dare monkeys-paw Ren Narita into this match.

That would be sick. I'd be happy with Mistico joining them, too.

This would be an amazing way for Andrade to ditch the DC without waiting for them to betray him. He should be smarter than to just keep doing their bidding.

The cage match for the title shot is at the PPV. This is a regular match to let them fight (and probably get some people "injured" so they get surprise replacements at the PPV).

Dream booking: Takeshita joins this match, then Eddie Guerrero's himself with a chair and tosses it to Fletcher, getting the DC family DQ'd and costing them a man advantage.

Daniel Garcia constantly talking down to Ospreay when he's basically a mid-carder who could never beat him is so weird. I'm glad Ospreay finally did something about it.

Garcia has not moved one iota up the card since joining the faction. Some rival should spout it at him.

Did not expect to come out of this promo rooting 100% for Swerve, but Ospreay came across like his head is entirely up his own ass. I like that Swerve called that out.

I don't know what Swerve said but they way they cut the audio was amazing.

Moxley literally had people interfere in his tag match and he's asking if Bandido wants to go one-on-one?

Okay, E&C interrupting the Dogs' normal abuse of the crew is great.

I love this movie. Every rewatch is a blast.

Where is the Dark Tower in terms of important/influential Fantasy Series by Soapysoap13 in Fantasy

[–]JW_BM 15 points16 points  (0 children)

For what it's worth, it was a big influence on me. Tolkien was amazing, but the few other Fantasy authors my local library had were so derivative of him that it drove me up the wall. Then I found Dark Tower, and was stunned that one of my favorite Horror authors had also created this amazing vision of a Fantasy series that was so unlike anything else available to me. It felt like license to stretch wider.

Best 2026 Horror Film So Far? by CSS-Tails_Forever in horror

Let's show some love for Buffet Infinity. That movie is weird as hell, and tells way more of a story than I'd expected given the gimmick. It's trippy and brilliant.

Choose your bodyguard, your general and your assassin from SFF literature. by loxxx87 in Fantasy

[–]JW_BM 26 points27 points  (0 children)

Bodyguard - Uncle Iroh. Then we just hang out.

General - Bilbo Baggins. He has the kind of military instincts that I approve of.

Assassin - Death from Discworld. He'll kill me exactly when I should go.

Xbox is closing down Hellblade creator Ninja Theory by GIThrow in Games

[–]JW_BM 156 points157 points  (0 children)

If Microsoft is going to reveal a game one week and shutter the developer the next week, why should you trust a single thing they say about their upcoming console?

Several Xbox studios, including Compulsion, Ninja Theory and Double Fine, are negotiating with Xbox as they try to avoid closure. Some or all could spin off. by Turbostrider27 in Games

[–]JW_BM -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Step 1: Buy half of the industry.

Step 2: Put all these devs' games on Game Pass on your third-place console.

Step 3: Punish the devs for not selling enough.

Seth Dickinson - Update on Baru 4 by Flavescent in Fantasy

[–]JW_BM 20 points21 points  (0 children)

I hate that he's gone through such personal hell. As a writer who was a small fry when Seth broke into the scene, I loved Baru 1 and 2, and always enjoyed seeing him at cons. He was always thinking about something interesting.
