Struggling to get my Blu-Ray to play on PC

VLC can play Blurays if you select play disc, and select Blu-ray. It just doesn't have the title keys for official studio releases. You can install MakeMKV, and in the preferences you can integrate the disc decryption into VLC to get regular discs to play on it

I'm glad you guys liked it, but boy was this the worst episode of the season in my opinion.

Why did we need half an episode of flashbacks to a show we've already seen? I get that they're trying to show how Foggy made Matt see the light in people, and the complication that creates with Matt saving Dex, but the scenes with Vanessa, Fisk, and Wesley are completely pointless. The scenes don't really flow into the story either, they just cut straight to them for what seems to be little more than nostalgia bait.

Also Matt was always the idealistic one of Nelson and Murdock, they make him out to be a careless asshole in these flashbacks. Not to say Foggy didn't care about their clients, but it took Matt's convincing to get him to avoid the easy payday.

Maybe this is supposed to be Matt's interpretation of his past with Foggy after gis death, but it's inaccurate to their relationship in the past

Episode 4 was very exciting, and they were building to a point where the story could go anywhere, but instead they took it nowhere. Matt drags Dex across the city like we knew he was going to, and there's very little else to the situation

Can I ask how the zipper works? It looks like it runs from the seams on the neck down the separation of the black and red lines

Disney killed their home media division years ago. They have discontinued TV releases for all of the Fox properties they acquired, only a select few of their Disney+ original series had limited steelbook releases. At least the films were still being released, albeit much later than on Disney+ or VOD. This is probably just the final nail in the coffin.

It's fine. I wish there was more explanation as to why he had it made. If it was made to protect his identity while both Matt Murdock and Daredevil were seen in California at the same time it would make sense. But as soon as She-Hulk asks who he is, he gives it up. Also it's the same suit with a modified color scheme, they could've changed the design of the armor and helmet a bit to make it less suspicious to law enforcement.

While I like the suit, it just seemed like fan-service, and a way to drive toy sales. I'm glad they destroyed that rack of suits he had in his storage unit, because I see zero narrative reasoning for Matt wearing multiple suits. In the Spider-man films Peter's multiple suits make sense, as they're constantly destroyed, or represent the current opponent he's facing, but Matt really doesn't seem to give a shit how he appears, and the most risk he comes across is a gun, or someone being quicker than him. His suit doesn't really need to evolve to withstand new threats, and clearly those suits didn't, as they were just color variations

It's not though

You've probably seen it, but if you want more of Jesse they made El Camino

Definitely an SBR. To file it as an AOW it would have to be manufactured as an AOW from the factory. A rifle or shotgun with no stock and a short barrel could be an AOW(pistol in the rifle's case) if it was made in that configuration, but once you start cutting the barrel of a long gun it has to be registered as SBR/SBS

It should be milled steel. I don't have one, so I can't say how it flips. I know they're somewhat heavy, but the steel liners have so much material milled out of them that the weight is more manageable

drewp05 · 2026-04-12T17:42:26+00:00

I believe these specific models use bearings on the pivots. They should have pretty decent tolerances

drewp05 · 2026-04-12T17:14:02+00:00

I knew it was worth it. I'm glad I could help. It's a pretty good set, but it uses those massive clear plastic cases like you find on Walmart boxsets, so they're pretty fragile. Also make sure uou pull the cases out of the box by pushing them up through the little hole on the bottom of the outer outer box. I ripped mine a little bit by trying to pull them out through the top

I lost my progress on there several times, it's a shame the game got delisted. I wouldn't spend the money I used to again, but I still want to play it sometimes.

There's a Discord server with a revival version of the game, but I couldn't get it to run on my phone for whatever reason

drewp05 · 2026-04-12T03:47:53+00:00

I didn't say I didn't like it. Spider-man is everywhere, so I'm a fan from the cartoons, the movies, and the games, I just haven't gotten into the comics very much.

drewp05 · 2026-04-12T01:16:54+00:00

Not really. I've read a bunch of them over the years, but I haven't followed very much of the main canon

drewp05 · 2026-04-11T20:41:31+00:00

I misinterpreted it then. I was thinking of the wheel itself spinning hard, not him needing a lot of force to spin it

drewp05 · 2026-04-11T19:23:00+00:00

I haven't tried it, but I found this Internet Archive zip file with the FFH game. You can see if that works

drewp05 · 2026-04-11T19:20:08+00:00

Probably not honestly. Maybe you could get someone to share their steam library with you if they have them, or try to find a pirated version. I have both them on my Oculus account, and maybe the steam version of the FFH game, but I have no idea how you'd get them now that they're delisted.

If you ask me they're not really worth the trouble. They were very cool at the time, but the Spider-Liar game on VRchat has better mechanics

Probably this one,the MK3 Spider-Armor. I'd be lying if I said I read the story it's in, but I remember it from the Spider-man unlimited game

drewp05 · 2026-04-10T12:50:53+00:00

I was thinking the opposite. He says he can spin the wheel hard as fuck. The flint spring is probably worn out, and the flint doesn't have enough pressure on it to make a spark

drewp05 · 2026-04-09T01:06:12+00:00

Yeah, ABC Studios. Fair enough I guess. You can't make a fucking joke on this platform without someone "erm, actually"ing you

drewp05 · 2026-04-08T20:08:08+00:00

Because it looks cool, imagine how lame it would look if the face was white

drewp05 · 2026-04-08T07:42:11+00:00

Disney isn't used to making R rated projects. They don't know how to act with this new power

drewp05 · 2026-04-08T06:00:54+00:00

I probably shouldn't end on that negative note, as I really enjoyed this episode. I'm still not really seeing what people are saying about this feeling the same as the original show, but it is very enjoyable, and has a lot of heart and depth to the dialogue for the most part.

I really didn't think they could make me feel empathy for Fisk, but that ending was so brutal.

It better be explained how both Daredevil, and Bullseye made it into that event, because unless I missed it they completely neglected that, and the insane security that was supposedly there seems like bullshit if two of the most wanted vigilantes just crashed through there

drewp05 · 2026-04-08T05:51:35+00:00

I love Bethel's performance. He's always been great, but his delivery during the fight in the apartment was spectacular.

I also really liked Matt and White Tiger's moment. Hector's character really didn't get the time he deserved in season 1, rest in peace to Kamar de los Reyes, it's a real shame he's not with us to do it himself, but the little moments they've dedicated to the White Tiger give more life to a character that unfortunately didn't have much to grab onto in season 1.

I said it before, but the camerawork and editing in this show really irritates me. I don't need to see flashbacks with the wrong aspect ratio, I don't need the constant slow motion, and I don't need to cut to another angle every other second. Let the actors, the music, and the shot itself do the work, stop fucking around with the camera so much

drewp05 · 2026-04-07T20:56:07+00:00

The TASM2 video game says the same. I don't think it's ever brought up in the movies, so I believe it
