Well, that confirms it. There's no way a millionaire could have had a hot tub installed since last June!

I saw it today. It was fine. It's far from "the worst movie in the MCU" like some reviews I've seen. And I didn't watch Ms. Marvel or Secret War, either. Still followed the story fine (I am a casual comics fan so I'm already vaguely familiar w/ Ms. Marvel and the Kree/Skrull war, in fairness).

Biggest contributor to the low B.O. in my opinion was the studios dragging out the writers & actors strikes and not being able to mount any publicity for the movie. I only remembered it was opening this weekend when I saw all the negative headlines about it coming out.

But didn't he specifically tell them they should just drop their suit and leave him alone? How rude of them.

SRD enthusiasts probably all OD'd in the last couple weeks.

You don't have to have an opinion about everything.

This isn't going to go down with the strongly Catholic members of my family, all of whom believe they know Church doctrine better than the pope.

I would love to buy this game on sale and never get around to playing it.

I have fallen into the same trap that I always do with this type of game, and which I begged myself not to this time, to no avail: Roll a character, be having a good time. Suddenly think, "I wonder if there's another way to solve this area if my character were any good at stealth..." Roll another character, replay the same 8-10 hours of the game. Think to myself, "that was interesting, but how would that play out if I took the bad guy path? Or if I was a magic user? Or if I had a mustache?" Replay the same 8-10 hours of the game, ad nauseam.

And this is even after the 100 hrs I sank in Early Access.

Last paragraph...

"Then the wheel falls off while you're driving, or the autopilot plows into a jersey wall, and you're meant to be thrilled.* Glad even. Grateful! This is proof: You were an early adopter. A beta tester, a brave explorer. You're helping to work out the bugs, mapping new territory. Who knows? In a hundred years this car's descendants might be as reliable as cars that by then will be 150 years old, and you will have played a part in making it so. Won't that be nice.

*Assuming you lived through it."

I stopped playing BG3 to try Starfield when it came out. I got through the intro, landed at that first populated world, and stopped to talk to a janitor at the train station. She said something like, "Boy, I sure would like a cappuccino from TeraBrew!" and a quest tracker popped up for me to go buy her a cup of coffee. I delivered it to her and she gave me a bag of apple slices that healed 1 HP or some shit.

I went back to playing BG3.

Isn't that what Grounded is? I haven't played it personally, but it reviews well and that seems to be their aim.

"Nah nah nah nah, I can't hear you," State Dept says.

Scroll back up and check out the headline of the thread you're posting in...

IMO, yes. Near the end of season 1 it starts to become apparent that all those "random" monster-of-the-week occurrences aren't really random, and the plot becomes increasingly more serialized as time goes on.

A handful of relatives at Thanksgiving wanted to have a conversation/diatribe about what the pope was doing wrong but hey look, I'm gonna go stand over here instead.

Damn, what a weird coincidence.

I guess Doctor Who twitter is now primarily made up of people who hate the show?

You know what your problem is, it's those damn cellphones.

"Cheers was good because it was an ensemble cast, what's the point of making a show just about Frasier? I'm not gonna watch it if there's no Woody or Norm, what would be the point?"

I'm not saying I think this will be as good/better than the first run of Frasier, but people should at least give it a shot before writing it off with the exact same criticism that was leveled against the show they now love when it was announced 30 yrs ago.

I got just inside Act 3 before I put the game on hold to wait for patches and things like that to come out...almost ready to jump back into it. I have been romancing Shadowheart because her story seemed to be the most tied-in to the game's plot. If/when I do a second run, I will be Team Karlach all the way.
