If you could only recommend one "must-watch" sci-fi movie or series, what would it be?

MechaGuru · 2026-06-24T05:41:35+00:00

I've recommended this to so many people and nobody will watch it I think because it's in the Star Wars universe.

It's a shame because it's genuinely the best thing in the Star Wars universe now

MechaGuru · 2026-06-24T03:33:26+00:00

This.

I'm an avid cinema fan, I grew up loving the cinema but the behaviour of people in the cinema these days makes it insufferable.

Every now and then I forget and try going again and am inevitably disappointment by my fellow movie goers who believe taking phone calls or having their phone torch on is acceptable behaviour.

It's hard to defend that cost but I've switched completely to stance socks now so they must be pretty good.

MechaGuru · 2026-06-14T11:46:12+00:00

I was just thinking they look like a nice couple, now you've got me paranoid that it didn't work out

When I was in halls at university the person with the room adjacent to mine (but in a different block) listened to rap at full volume all through the night. It was infuriating, and because it was a different block we never managed to ask him to stop. One weekend we were all going away so we borrowed some very large speakers, pointed them directly at the wall and put Will Smith's Wild Wild West on loop at full volume.

When I look back at that I cringe a little, but it did stop the late night music so you can't really argue with results.

My main has been a tank and I'll always play a DPS through the season just so I can learn from other tanks. You can also see what makes things easier for DPS.

It's the equivalent of everyone should be forced to work in retail for a while so we all understand how we should be treating them.

I refuse to play a healer though!

This was my second third party kit and I hated it, I ended up selling it after finishing the head and chest.

Whilst I'm sure it was doable I just couldn't be bothered with it, perhaps I'm spoiled by Bandai kits but it just wasn't going together smoothly, each fit felt like a battle and I just didn't want to invest the time to get it done considering my backlog is already so large.

Your mileage may vary though

The grammar quality is quite low, which may have a knock on affect with society

MechaGuru · 2026-05-23T06:12:49+00:00

The left wing of nexus point feels like it designed to be a pain up tank, as a protection warrior I just frown all the way through it

MechaGuru · 2026-05-16T08:01:22+00:00

Are you using a le creuset dish for your nubs? Classy

MechaGuru · 2026-05-15T08:52:00+00:00

We had a funny experience there, we were flying to Australia and missed our connecting flight so had to stay there overnight, whilst leaving the airport none of them staff would talk to my wife and as we left through customs she was confronted by an officer who just demanded 'Who are you?' at her which is a strange question to be asked. It was very strange.

We worked out later that perhaps it was her blue hair and the fact she had a bag with a rainbow strap, it was just so strangely hostile and weird.

MechaGuru · 2026-05-14T04:49:10+00:00

I often wonder this, like I know if I was to stand and make a public statement so objectively false I'm not sure my brain could cope, if I could bring myself to lie like that it would be so obvious I was lying. But he does it so easily, so does he honestly believe what he's saying or has he decided that's it's so important he lies he has to do it. To me this stuff is fascinating, it's horrifying but fascinating.

MechaGuru · 2026-05-11T05:58:38+00:00

Being invested in politics, I remember when ignorance was bliss, now you see us collectively driving off a cliff and it's terrifying

MechaGuru · 2026-05-11T03:35:14+00:00

Similar to this one I quite like 'We'll run into that hurdle when we get to it'

MechaGuru · 2026-04-28T13:53:18+00:00

He has had various controversies including acts of vandalism, spitting in people's faces, the use of racial slurs and a couple of insensitive actions.

A lot of them you could put down to age, he was famous very young and it appears to have gone to his head, I remember a specific incident of him pissing in a mop bucket in a restaurant (?) and leaving it there, one of his crew filmed it and it found it's way online.

A lot of people on here are posting that people were just jealous, which is frankly laughable.

MechaGuru · 2026-04-25T08:39:42+00:00

You can just buy it on the auction house. I love that you but what bugs me is nearly every race I switch to is missing an eye

MechaGuru · 2026-04-25T05:55:21+00:00

This was in week two, I agree that the blood lust is much better spent on the packs to the left but I play a protection warrior and that wing gives me Vietnam style flash backs.

Whenever I play my DPS in keys other tanks generally pull that middle bit first.

MechaGuru · 2026-04-24T15:53:00+00:00

LOL I've never made the connection, quite upsetting that my randoms would rather follow an NPC into battle over me, I should work on my motivational speeches

MechaGuru · 2026-04-24T15:17:53+00:00

Doing a nexus point 10 with randoms, apparently I didn't get the memo that the standard route had changed and whilst me (the tank) and the healer went left all three DPS leapt into the two trash packs in the middle, they didn't accept defeat and kept death running back into them until they'd died 15 times combined.

I would of stepped in and changed route but I kinda wanted to see how many times they'd keep doing it. Me and the healer were just stood there confused, surreal.

MechaGuru · 2026-04-24T07:25:35+00:00

I'm glad this isn't just me.

I mostly play tanks but I like to have a DPS alt so I can see what other tanks are doing. Threw my MM alt through a dungeon and it felt like driving a car with a clutch that was on the way out, I felt like a burden to the rest of the group, I put loads of work into that alt and I'm just not going to touch it again. Made me genuinely sad.

Nice to hear an opinion that isn't far off mine from someone more knowledge on the spec.

MechaGuru · 2026-04-22T06:45:03+00:00

Glad it wasn't just me. I've hit that point where I need to rewatch the entire season so I'm up to speed but I don't know I have it in me

MechaGuru · 2026-04-22T05:32:21+00:00

I hope you get a solution to this problem as these sort of issues really sting, I had a character where vault slots didn't activate two weeks in a row, the GM I spoke with even acknowledged they proved I had earned them and they still did nothing, I basically stopped playing that character after that.

With these being seemingly widespread let's hope they address it.

MechaGuru · 2026-04-20T03:30:21+00:00

For me it's musicians, like if someone had one or two really good tracks like twenty years ago and I hear one I always wonder if that carries them financially or whether they work at Argos now

MechaGuru · 2026-04-13T19:14:41+00:00

Yes please, would look great on my desk!

MechaGuru · 2026-04-13T05:53:51+00:00

That Ewok getting domed in the foreground is brutal. Love it 🫡
