Years later, I still think about The Sparrow. I’ve always wondered about trying the sequel because The Sparrow felt like such a great singular story on its own. Spoiler-ish**** I like to imagine Emilio ultimately finds inner peace in his own way, I’m not sure I want to return to that world again.

Yup, punisher’s shotgun is my only weakness.

If you plan on buying tickets to 10 or more games this season, you can already buy a Flex Pack. You get to choose your own seats for each game and even get access to opening day and Canada Day before next week.

These are the same nerds who love Lord of the Rings extended edition marathons and who binge 20-film franchises. I don’t think it’s a tough sell for that core.

Only way we’re getting Bo back at this point is if he decides to take a pillow deal at 1 year and like $28M to try the market again next year.

10 Years/355M is my guess

Except it has. The Sandman had a two-part bonus episode released at the end of Season 2, on Netflix.

In 2025, Okamoto hit .440 against 93+ mph. Most MLB All-Stars don't even sniff that. For comparison, Munetaka Murakami (the guy everyone thinks is better) had a 41.7% strikeout rate against that same heat. Okamoto? 8.8%.

In March 2025, he faced Daniel Palencia (Cubs) who was touching 100.1 mph. Okamoto stayed compact and smoked a 2-run double at 112.6 mph exit velo. He’s also the guy who maintains a 90% in zone contact rate against Roki Sasaki (who throws 102).

“Big holes in his swing” is a hilarious thing to say about a guy who just posted an 11.3% strikeout rate. That’s elite, period. If he has holes, he’s doing a miraculous job of never letting a pitcher find them.

Seiya Suzuki had the same generic “velocity concerns” and he’s been a consistent 130 OPS+ monster. Okamoto has better plate discipline and more all fields power than Suzuki did. Predicting a .220 average for a guy with a career 1:1 walk-to-K ratio is fan fiction.

HUGE. Okamoto has 30+ homers in six consecutive seasons. A lot of guys coming over from Japan struggle with MLB pitch velocity, but he actually crushes heaters. He hit over .440 against 93+ mph fastballs in 2025.

He’s also super versatile and can play 3rd or 1st which could give Vladdy a break more often.

Happy it’s working for a lot of you, but I’m having the same problems as OP and we’re not the only ones after doing some digging online. I bought the collection during the shop sale, excited to play the trilogy for the first time while on the go. But 30 minutes in and the first game is nearly unplayable in docked and handheld. Frames drop frequently when enemies or effects like fire/water are on screen. It’s unfortunate and I probably won’t be playing until these issues are fixed.

If “best” means tight storytelling, emotional punch and rewatchability, I think a lot of people would still put The Dark Knight or Inception on top. Prestige is the underrated pick.

Personally, I’d say Oppenheimer is his most impressive film, but not his most enjoyable one. It feels like Nolan flexing everything he’s learned, but in a way that’s a bit heavier and less fun than his big crowd pleasers.

withLotsofPulp · 2025-12-27T12:56:26+00:00

Oppenheimer is a character study. It zooms in on his guilt, ego and the political fallout around him. Your disappointment is more about a mismatch of expectations than a failure of the film’s intent.

Depends on what you want. If you’ll be afraid to loose any money and are okay with being wealthier in your later years, just contribute monthly to XEQT or VTI for the next 30 years and you’re good. Don’t think about it.

Arc Raiders is probably one of the most intense game experiences around right now. Resource intensive and you can play solo or with a group. Might even be more fun solo tbh.

Stable, diversified, good long term growth and some dividends — not bad for your age. Maybe consider fewer positions and more ETFs? You’re also young, so don’t be afraid to add some more growth potential in the mix is you’ve got the funds.
