SamuraiFoochs posted:Guys, Infinity War was seriously awesome and THAT loving ENTRANCE (you know the one) made me mark the gently caress out. It saddens me though, because Thor was so, so great and we're getting this just as he's about to go away. Response to spoiler: What makes you think he's going away? As far as I've heard, after his experience working with Taika Waititi in Ragnarok, he's changed his mind on leaving. Maybe taking a year or two off, but not leaving altogether.

Sydney Bottocks posted:Assassin's Creed: Origins is so good you guys The best AC since Black Flag, no doubt. That may be because it's also a lot less "Assassin's Creed"-y than most Assassin's Creed games, just like Black Flag.

Jerusalem posted:Origins. AssCreed 3 was dogshit but 4 (Black Flag) was great, then Unity somehow made one of the most fascinating periods of history utterly boring, then Syndicate was a lot of fun. I only just started Origins but it's already incredible and absolutely lives up to the comparisons people made to Witcher 3. I second our illustrious mod on both games. ACO is great and damned pretty if you have the hardware to run it on, and FC5 is good, but they force you into core story missions even if you just want to screw around, so it's not remotely worth full price.

Jerusalem posted:The Revenant is an amazing film. Even putting aside the acting and the characters, it's just goddamn beautiful and the fact it's almost entirely shot in natural light blows my little mind. I think that was likely due to the cameras they used. 6k Arri Alexa 65's. The cinematographer said it was the first camera that truly let him set film aside and completely embrace digital.

Jerusalem posted:I was surprised at the level of criticism it got. While it certainly didn't break the mold or anything, it was a fun open world "blow everything up" game. It has a LOT of technical issues. Even on PC, it doesn't run very well without at least 16 GB of RAM. Now, if you do have 16 GB or more, it's a ton of fun, but it's not without the occasional crash even then, and even after all the patches and updates.

Karmine posted:There's a stray cat in my neighborhood who's been sorta farting around my yard/sidewalk the past few weeks. It got into my front porch one time and just really wanted to come into the house. I wish I could let it but I also don't want some random rear end cat with who knows what kind of personality and/or diseases around my kid. I hope that cat finds home and happiness, but man we've got nothing for you kitty sorry. 3 step solution to that problem: 1) Trap cat (your local humane society should be able to loan you a trap). 2) Take cat to vet, see what issues cat might have. 3) Take cat home, enjoy being owned by a cat. And if there are issues, well, the vet can at least neuter them or check them for a chip. It might be an escaped pet and you could help return them to their owner.

VJeff posted:We switched to Comcast at work today. My boss was telling me how it'd be TWELVE TIMES FASTER than what we had before. I said I'll believe it when I see it. Comcast business class cable or actual fiber? The cable is crap, maybe even worse than their home cable. Every place I've worked that's had it has hated it. Never have heard a bad word about their Ethernet/fiber, though. I upgraded an old employer to it, and we're running it here at my current job, and it works great.

Which was somehow even WORSE than Part V - at least Part V had some blood and a LOT more nudity than I remembered. She still wants to finish Jason Takes Manhattan and Jason Goes To Hell this weekend, but asked that we take then a break to watch Predator 2 and AvP. Maximum Overdrive is transcendentally trashy, written and directed by Stephen King during the worst period of his coke addiction. It's amazing, and just as stupid as she's thinking.

Forza Horizon 4 is one of the most beautiful games I've ever played. FH3 was great but buggy on PC, but 4 runs like a dream on my system. Tons of fun but I wish there was a better way to earn money. The Veneno and Sesto Elemento ain't gonna pay for themselves. (But seriously, gently caress the horns and cosmetic items in the wheelspins.)

Look at it this way: once civilization collapses and we slowly die out, there will be new species evolving that come to take over for the ones that we've lost. Life has survived snowballs and asteroid impacts and massive volcanic activity. It'll survive one batch of dumb apes, too. The apes won't, so I'd hate to be one of those dumb apes.

ChrisBTY posted:Sadbrains time. I hit 40 in March. I'm right there with you. My wife and I can't have kids because of her litany of medical issues... and they're so bad, we can't realistically hope to adopt, either. All I can see myself really having to look forward to in however long I have left is her dying a little bit more each day, and another little piece of my sanity and/or neurological stability going away as well. I could divorce her, hope that someone else might put up with my insanity, but then I'd be leaving my best friend and someone I love more than I really thought I was even capable of, someone who gets me in ways I never thought I could be understood, let alone would be. A kinda hollow, kinda empty life with someone who loves me, or betraying my best friend for the faint hope of a chance for something I'd call "real", that might last beyond me. Yup, sadbrains. In other news, I found myself deep in a wiki-hole trying to figure out the appropriate paleontological classification for the newly (re-?) discovered extant species being informally referred to as a "Luchasaurus". I think he's some sort of featherless Dromaeosaurid. Too fast and agile to be a Carnosaurid, but also too tall to be a Troodontid. Then again the known specimen has displayed surprising aerial ability, so maybe he's a very large Archaeopterygid?

CobiWann posted:Saw IT Chapter 2 last night with the misses. "A" for her, "B+" for me. If the first chapter was a horror movie, this one was more of a dramedy with horror/thriller elements tossed in all overlaid with a nostalgic "nothing last forever" theme. More jokes, more silliness, more melodrama, however it DOES do a drat good job adapting the "grown-up" part of the novel into something coherent, including the final showdown with Pennywise. It sure as hell didn't need to be 2 hours and 50 minutes though... We saw it Thursday night at our Alamo Drafthouse. There were a troop of clowns in the lobby all night, and we each got handed a red balloon as we left the theater. As for the movie itself, I'd agree with all of your critiques exactly, except my wife and I are both a bit harder on it than you and yours. B+ from her, B or B- from me.
