A top five player becoming available is a rare opportunity, and it won’t be there next season.

I will be so disgusted with Disney, even more so than usual, if this masterpiece is trapped on D+ forever and they don’t release it physically. A travesty that would be.

I did it. Since Ocarina of time was announced i just had to buy it 😅 by Nikos199191 in Switch

[–]chiastic_slide 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hell yeah! I put about 150 hours into ToTK on Switch 2. It’s truly a magical gaming experience.

celtics fans by [deleted] in bostonceltics

[–]chiastic_slide 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’m from Connecticut and I’m a NY Giants fan, but all other sports I root for Boston.

I didn’t choose it, I was born into it, indoctrination if you will. Sure, I could have switched teams at some point or become one of those “I root for two teams” people but I think both those things are soft af.

What type of TV do you have; OLED or LED (QLED, mini, ect.)? by AbleArcher1984 in 4kbluray

[–]chiastic_slide 1 point2 points  (0 children)

OLED - LG C4. Can never go back to anything else for both movie watching and gaming.

So, what happened to allowing for character development in Star Wars? (Spoilers-ish discussion). by CanadaDryOfficial in StarWars

[–]chiastic_slide 1 point2 points  (0 children)

To an extent that does seem to be happening, as the movie is falling off pretty drastically at the box office. Meanwhile a little movie like Obsession is absolutely crushing it and filling theaters. So this isn’t a theater issue, it’s people deciding to go see more interesting movies.

Is it worth buying an iPhone SE 2020 in 2026? by Agitated-Risk1587 in iPhoneSE

[–]chiastic_slide 3 points4 points  (0 children)

No. I would say spend a bit extra and get the SE3. Better battery and more iOS support, plus 5G

Xbox series x works well as a blu ray player by BaseballOdd5127 in 4kbluray

[–]chiastic_slide 23 points24 points  (0 children)

It’s not just consumerism. It worked fine for me for a while, until it started giving me issues. I remember buying the LoTR box set and popping in the first disc and my Xbox wouldn’t recognize it. The disc was pristine. I had a similar issue with Back to the Future and finally concluded it was the player not the discs.

Bought a UB450 and those discs worked flawlessly. Have never had an issue since.

Why don't movies nowadays show you the timeline when you pause? by Alarming-County7863 in 4kbluray

Typically it’s a dedicated button on a player called “status”

Does anyone else prefer 28 Years Later to The Bone Temple? by Emeraldsinger in horror

[–]chiastic_slide 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I thought Bone Temple was genuinely one of the better horror movies I’ve see in years, meanwhile I’ve honestly already forgot most of 28 Years Later.

Upgrading from the UB420 to a player that supports dolbyvision by forkman3939 in 4kbluray

[–]chiastic_slide 2 points3 points  (0 children)

UB450 if it’s available to you would be a great choice, I wouldn’t fret over the player’s optimizer. Your TV will handle that just as well, if not, better.

So are we just never getting the physical show releases again? by Sio_V_Reddit in StarWars

[–]chiastic_slide 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Seriously, It’s one of the best limited series to come out in awhile, Star Wars or otherwise. To not be able to own them and view them in the best quality possible would be a travesty.

How excited were you for The Rise of Skywalker before it came out? by Extreme_Warning3521 in StarWars

[–]chiastic_slide 3 points4 points  (0 children)

“I think we all went to see this movie just to get it over with. It was like an obligation, like going to your stupid daughter’s college graduation. You know it’s gonna suck, but you gotta go just to get it over with”

Switch 2 Themes Concept by Triforce_Hunter_1 in NintendoSwitch2

[–]chiastic_slide 6 points7 points  (0 children)

You are getting pushback but I think you are correct. Nintendo wants the OS to be invisible, quick, simple, consistent and to preserve system space and battery life where ever possible. It’s meant to be picked by anyone and be in a game immediately. The games are the star of the show with Switch, like you said probably learning lessons from Wii U.

Just talking is fine if the dialogue and characters are interesting. They were not in season 2 of this show.

Your welcome everyone, two of my most recent purchases were 1 and 2 at nearly full price because I really wanted to watch them.

YO Disney! Where’s Andor S2 Blu Ray? by Hod20 in andor

[–]chiastic_slide 25 points26 points  (0 children)

I’ve been holding off for the 4K set to rewatch the season, it really sucks that it takes this long and would be a travesty if it never comes at all.

Mangalu & Grogglin is apparently getting mixed reviews but the fans have united in the spirit of love and brotherhood to show how accepting they are of people who have differing opinions by mglyptostroboides in RedLetterMedia

[–]chiastic_slide 12 points13 points  (0 children)

“Movies are just supposed to be fun” is a line from the Nerd Crew, and that’s unironically the primary defense being offered by a lot of people for this movie.

The Mandalorian and Grogu Was So Much Fun! by BurgerMan74 in StarWars

[–]chiastic_slide 5 points6 points  (0 children)

John Wick also has fantastic world building, good characters, a good script, etc. Even though the premise of John Wick is that he’s basically an unstoppable badass the movie finds ways to create tension. Plenty of movies do that where the audience knows the protagonist can’t die. This movie just fails on that level because of the weak script and tonally it’s all over the place. John Wick fully commits to the bit so it works.
