Re: Doctor Who

Slightly less glibly, I just mean that if this is the Moffat we're getting this season I'm happy it's just the one. This felt like him just kinda spinning his greatest hits into a lesser-than remix, and honestly to me felt sort of like a 12/Clara episode that was only just barely adjusted to be abou...

Re: Doctor Who

Alternate take: It's nice to have one-episode-a-season Moffat back.

Re: X-Men

So how'd we do? So Iron Man and Morph-as-Mr. Fantastic were both wearing their costumes from their '90s cartoons. You know there has to have been some discussion at this point about doing more shows in a '90s Marvel Animated Universe, even if the ones that weren't X-Men or Spider-Man we...

Re: Hey [%target] Whatcha Playin'?

Yep -- I loved the atmospheric single screen puzzle solving Knytt portion, and really enjoyed the "100% the Metroid Game" scouring the map for broken places you haven't found yet to find all the collectibles, and got just partway into finding MORE collectibles before I hit my personal limi...

Re: Hey [%target] Whatcha Playin'?

Yeah brobdingnagian warning that the Knytt part of the game is a good four to eight hours long and then there's like another million years worth of hours of putting red strings up on a pin board.

Re: Hey [%target] Whatcha Playin'?

Grabbed Animal Well yesterday -- it's a new side scrolling indie game made by one creator and while most outlets are calling it a metroidvania for lack of a better term, to sell it to THIS forum it's much more of a Knytt-like. You're a little blob who can run and jump, and that's it until you start ...

also it's not that baffling a success because it stars a depressed clown girl.

Oh, and I guess Tim Allen was arrested for trafficking coke in the 70s and ratted on his criminal friends in return for reduced jail time. Some people are upset about this because they consider Tim a dirty rat.

Re: X-Men

Caught up with X-Men 97, and what a success the show it. It perfectly captures the original show's ability to capture the current state of the X-Men at the time (those Blue and Gold team costumes and lineup) while adapting classic X-Men storylines rather faithfully for a kid's TV show. Only now the...

Also, there was so much going on that I almost missed that Xavier felt Gambit die but not Magneto . Which, y'know, nice touch, even if I'm long past taking any superhero death seriously anyway. Notably the MasterMoldipede also stopped detecting an Omega Level Mutant threat while Magneto was clutchi...

Re: X-Men

Episode 6 immediately reminds you how much Claremont DNA is in this series by having a woman pin a man down with her high heel hard enough to bleed and then shortly thereafter insinuating that Charles Xavier is down with pet-play.
