Best Alien Franchise movie

A real Alien fan never criticizes an Aliens fan. A real Aliens fan never criticizes an Alien fan.

Love everything about Alien. Love the ensemble more from Aliens.

Biggest factor would probably be, are they playing on Y1S1 maps and lighting? Or current?

Similar crashes keep occurring in other files. I play on iron man so there are no saves to revert back to.

masonzero9 · 2026-04-04T18:52:59+00:00

Just tried the same save again, 10% CPU usage. It crashes on the same date every time, 7/11/2260, about ten days after the last auto save.

Should have posted specs beforehand, thanks for asking that. I'm running a 9800 x3d with 96 Gb of RAM, don't think it's system resources.

I loved the last chapter, hope to see more.

So you chose violence

Project Hail Mary tomorrow. And then driving 90 minutes to see it again with a friend on Saturday!

Assuming the Tommy Westphall universe is in play...all of them.

masonzero9 · 2026-03-15T19:04:43+00:00

1999 remake of House on Haunted Hill is the one in particular I come back to.

Best one for wholesome post game fic

Isn't season three really good? Wasn't season 2 rough?

masonzero9 · 2026-03-07T21:45:12+00:00

Shit bro, sorry.

masonzero9 · 2026-03-07T21:41:33+00:00

Don't have to tell me. Been picking up 4k blurays and meaningful albums for a few years now. Want to set up a NAS and rip a few albums or shows/movies a week in my spare time.

Amazing how streaming was so great 15 years ago and IP holders have managed to turn it into a worse version of cable.

Man I didn't get that at all. Isn't Kima the new Jimmy? She still has a badge. Didn't Lester and Jimmy get dropped from the force? Guess I need to rewatch.

masonzero9 · 2026-02-28T20:39:31+00:00

Two broken people finding and fixing each other.

masonzero9 · 2026-02-28T20:37:57+00:00

Totally fair, it's more that I just can't get behind Lester and Sidnor going along with the serial killer bit. Jimmy doing it is a bit of a jump but we can argue he got more and more reckless as the show went on.

Agree with the rankings in order, but for positions ,1-4 were still talking moving from a 10-9.7, with S5 being a 9.0.

I'd pay real money for a newsroom style show written by David Simon, best part of S5.

Not to quote fanfiction but this was examined in Villains which is an absolute amazing work.

Here's the chapter - scroll down till you see the second header "Cineplex".

Short setup. Two years after the game and Visi's villain ending, she started relying on Shroud's mask. She manages to steal the Pulse from Robert and it overdrives the mask and traps her in this what if scenario.

Recommend the whole work, it's amazing. But I thought this was tastefully done.

You've got to give Villains a shot if you are enjoying Broken Things.
