So... anyone else seen the series 8 premiere yet? Thoughts on it and the new Doctor?

Penwrite

Yeah, but I always thought Sunset Shimmer to at least LOOK like a threatening villain, with that punky jacket and and aggressive color scheme.

Eh, wasn't planning on seeing this one to begin with anyway.

Penwrite

Having watched the clips for the new Equestria Girls movie, I am just having so much trouble taking these villains seriously. Anyone else have this problem?

Penwrite

Huh. I consider that the worst Halloween movie and an absolute desecration of what made the films good in the first place. *shrug*

On the subject of Halloween, this October I'm planning on watching one horror movie a day. Anyone have suggestions?

Penwrite

A moment of silence for the late Robin Williams.

It occurs to me that after this cameo... somewhere in the universe, George Lucas is LAUGHING at us.

I think that's a perfectly good teaser trailer. It alerts audiences that a thing exists and gives a small taste of what it is. Better a trailer with too little than one with too much, right?

So I saw the Guardians of the Galaxy tonight. The movie was wonderful, the theater was not. We went to the 9PM showing, and people were bringing their two year olds. During parts of the movies you could hear them screaming. But that's in the past, the movie was fun. Really fun, as in, I want to buy...

Penwrite

Pretty much. It's not a situation like Quicksilver and Scarlet Witch, where they have such an extensive history as Avengers members that they can be used. Galactus is as much for the Fantastic Four as, say, Doctor Doom.

Penwrite

If I ever write anything HALF as fun as Guardians of the Galaxy, I will be able to die a happy man.

That movie is amazing!

I can't form a single coherent thought in response to this movie trailer. The fact that it exists, that it is a thing with no rhyme or reason, confounds me. I... I have been broken by this trailer.

I'd just like to point out that, while I hate the concept of remakes Rob zombie's Halloween was the equivalent of a really good cover song. I loved it.

Friday the 13th is my favorite slasher movie series. It's sort of the steady and reliable one, neither reaching the highest heights nor the lowest lows of the Halloween or Nightmare on Elm Street movies.

Saw the new Hercules movie a couple of days ago. A pretty solid piece of entertainment, overall. Good action, decent effects, a not-terrible story, and a great performance from Dwayne Johnson as Hercules. I'd recommend it.

Penwrite

So, they could use the episode to teach about how friendship and harmony can be taken too far?

That'd be unexpected.

Penwrite

That Spike and Pinkie gag had me rolling.

Penwrite

Opinion: Pyrovision goggles. Do they make the game more or less fun?

Penwrite

Well I've been on the receiving end of it more than once, so yeah, pretty sure it works.

Penwrite

Bonk! can be for more than simply distraction. You can use it to get a quick look at the lay of the area so that you know what to avoid next time, and relay that info to the rest of the team, or get behind enemy lines and harass them from there in a pincer attack. Another fun thing that's hard to do...

Anyone have any opinion on the new Payload map, Cactus Canyon? Seems a little easier for the defending team so far, from my limited experience. Needs more work.

The new game mode, Robot Destruction, also needs a lot of work. I couldn't find my way around the game map, lol. XD

Penwrite

Nothing is for everyone, so it's not like anyone isn't allowed to not like it, but its appeal comes from multiple places. For starters, it's cute, charming, well-written, and well-animated. It's just an overall well-done cartoon. It's also squeaky clean and full of innocent wonder, yet doesn't blat...

I should add that when it comes to taking out sentry nests, I find the Soldier's rocket launcher that fires multiple rockets to be very useful. Also prefer Demoknight to Demoman, especially on Capture the Intelligence. Nothing so satisfying as hacking my way to the briefcase and then activating my ...

I'm probably the worst Sniper you will ever meet on that game. :P Have had the game since December of last year and have probably played as Sniper a total of 34 minutes. In regards to what I play most, I generally just try to play a class it looks like the team needs at the moment, switching as need...

well if it's actually a race and not just Discord, it's Draconequus for me. Otherwise I'd say changelings. I'm still confused why they made up a species for him when they could have just referred to him as a chimera. It's not like they've ever shied away from actual fantasy/mythological creatures b...

I take issue with Sombra. He barely was developed as a villain at all . He could have been replaced with an environmental evil rather than a person and the episode wouldn't have suffered one bit. You know, I would argue that King Sombra was one of the better-developed villains in the show. It just ...

Penwrite

So, I finally got around to watching the S4 finale (Yeah, I know, took my time with it). Overal it was fine. Best part for me was the awesome fight scene between Twilight and Tirek. Speaking of, how does Tirek rank for y'all among the big bads of the show? Though Tirek was great, King Sombra's still...

I thought Amazing Spider-Man 2 had the best web-slinging of any Spidey film, especially in the beginning car chase.

Also, *high-pitched screaming*

You know what might be a good comparison? Jaws. How often do you really see the shark there?

Penwrite

I adore the new Godzilla movie. A wonderful callback in style and tone to the original film.

I'm amused by a lot of the professional reviews complaining about how long it takes for Godzilla to actually appear in the film. It took longer for the T-Rex to appear in Jurassic Park, lol.

Not totally movie-centric, but famed artist H.R. Giger, creator of the alien in 1979's Alien, has passed away. A sad day indeed for horror movie fans.

I could've sworn that was over.

I'm really digging the visual style there. It's kinda cg, but in a flat, kinda 2D traditional-animation way that I don't think I've seen before. Pretty to look at, if nothing else.

Muppets Most Wanted was good. Not the best Muppet film, but a good time still.
