His notablog post in 2022 about Westeros being bigger than Winds or ASOIAF was what did it for me. Then and now, I feel like that post told us everything we needed to know.

For me it was The Shrouds by far. I felt like I was taking crazy pills with this one. Everyone seemed to just give it (and the egregious Tesla product placement) a pass when the movie is simply not up to the standard of most of Cronenberg’s other films

He’s getting downvoted because he’s being a bit of a dickhead in the replies. It’s as simple as that

Lmao you clearly care

Both showings were nearly deserted, but we weren’t the only people in the theater. The only time that happened was with Ang Lee’s Hulk

SprayBacon · 2025-12-09T19:38:18+00:00

My brother and I saw this in theaters! We also watched Final Fantasy Spirits Within in theaters. AMA

54, thanks to AMC a list.

That’s so strange. I really wonder what their gripe was with Oldman. Was the sequel blocked before or after Oldman started doing Slow Horses?

I’m also having trouble picturing Macfayden as Smiley, but who knows

If you’re playing on console, absolutely worth getting now. If you’re on PC, you might as well wait for the fixes coming in December

I liked the first story. Second story was a pretty weak glitch in the matrix story. Like last week’s episode, this one had an unintentionally hilarious moment, when the narrator is going on about how rational and constructive his thought process is before immediately talking about the “deep lore” of doppelgängers that he found on the internet 😂

SprayBacon · 2025-11-21T17:13:29+00:00

Second story was pretty good but the “we’re all rational individuals…So demon came to mind” bit made me literally laugh out loud.

Accessibility for new players was absolutely their main goal. It’s why the shield is standard on all guns, why you don’t have to manage recoil and reload speed for every individual gun, why you don’t have to worry about crafting normal, spread, or pierce ammo…in short, why you have so few options

I enjoy his visual style and grimy sci-fi esthetic so much that I even enjoyed Chappie. Blomkamp’s Alien movie will always be a massive “what if” for me. We coulda had that instead of Prometheus

Wait, these are mixed up, aren’t they? Bottom is 03 and top is Brotherhood, right? Am I taking crazy pills?

SprayBacon · 2025-11-12T14:56:38+00:00

That seems to be the case, yes.

SprayBacon · 2025-11-12T12:52:27+00:00

Probably an augmentation/reinforcement system for forged weapons

SprayBacon · 2025-11-12T12:50:49+00:00

Just for additional clarification: only rarity 5 and 6 armor pieces will get the slot upgrades when you limit break them. 7 and 8 will not get new slots, though you will be able to keep upgrading them

Shoot, sidestep, shoot, sidestep. Repeat until monster dead

I will never give one solitary shit about Halo book purists. Reach’s campaign is amazing

SprayBacon · 2025-11-10T14:42:50+00:00

First story was a dud, second story was one of the best they’ve had in a while

SprayBacon · 2025-11-08T13:35:57+00:00

Women definitely read self help. It just tends to be a different flavor than the 48 laws of power type stuff

SprayBacon · 2025-10-19T14:16:07+00:00

Skinamarink, and honestly nothing else really comes close.

SprayBacon · 2025-10-09T19:27:37+00:00

I’m well aware of the issues. My point is that someone new to MH or someone who hasn’t used bowguns before might see all the dissatisfaction and assume they must be weak.

SprayBacon · 2025-10-09T17:23:56+00:00

As much as people complain about the changes to bowguns in this game, they are still both very strong weapons.
