  1. I spent a good part of my early years sitting before the altar of the comic spinner, reading for hours. There was no larger comic community or discussions where I grew up. Continuity came up later for me as well.
  2. Now that you've said, I can't unsee it lol
  3. I finished this series already Tried following it up with Onimusha and didn't make too much beyond the opening fight in the latter, so can't speak to Onimusha's story but the designs and animation quality between the two brook little comparison. To my trained eye it's the stylistic design of Onimusha that limits its animation, lacking weight and dynamic movement. Character expression also limited by same. Anyway I thought Blue Eye was fantastic. Good character development, serious speckled with humor. The fights, character beats, it had everything I wanted for the medium and genre. The story as developed over the 8 episodes definitely subverted my expectations too, leaving off with lots of story to tell. Bet on two more seasons. So... If S2 doesn't get greenlit, I'm going to be salty.
  4. Blue Eye Samurai is pretty good so far
  5. I'm apparently in the minority that is actually enjoying Loki S2 lol
  6. I'm not sure what it means either but I like they're dropping all the episodes. Watch at your own pace with as few or many distractions as you choose. I mean, I legit doubt limited release actually does much, most people who don't want to pay every month will wait for the majority of the episodes to drop anyway before subbing for a month anyway. Hopefully Echo will be a success and embolden Disney+ to do this more.
  7. I'm not sure. I bought the entire Manga collection for Llyra and myself [we've been holding off until series finish] first cause spoilers, second in case the animated series butchered it. Excepting the action sequences, I've never been overly fond of Japanimation's held cel style, so I try not to notice lol
  8. That’s the thing with animation [cg or otherwise] if you got a vision which the script realizes, and your development is on point, ie: previs, storyboarding, layout… your animation houses and/or departments will crank it up to the top shelf. Dollars to donuts The Creator was a tight, cohesive production [at least insofar as that, can’t speak to personalities] and I’m looking forward to seeing it.
  9. I give that dude less than a year. Hiding in Qatar or Lebanon, probably.
  10. Our other daughter, actually. I wasn’t sold on it, but Tyrion was the ex’s favourite character. She’s [Tyrion] got a French teacher referring to her as Lannister now, so there may be some bill due down the road lol
  11. Llyra, my oldest [15], and I had a great time watching all these together, much to Tyrion's chagrin [13] Hope you enjoy as much as we did.
  12. I think Israel has taken it too far, but that's not new. I felt it every time some kid about to throw a rock, or a tire, got sniped. Feel it now. The absolute disgust though? That's new. This latest is beyond the pale. And yeah, Hamas sucks. Line their leadership and perps in front of me and I'll do them myself. Doesn't change my judgment on how Israel has comported itself one Planck scaled fucking iota however.
  13. Gun culture makes everyone afeared of guns. Vicious circle, all that. Tyrion has expressed an interest in continuing her education in the US. Was a big old nope, from both her parents.
  14. re: latest Even with time being one's plaything, that was some ginchy expectation subversion.
  15. Depends on the State, but if there're no background checks then it'd follow there'd also be few [if any] restrictions.
  16. I was referring to the lean and slide of his politics, Fragile.
  17. Unfortunate. Johnson has that same politically expedient, greasy fuck type sheen that Pierre Poilievre has up here.
  18. Child rape was implied rather than depicted, the murder wasn't. That open to The Darkness That Comes Before is still amongst my favorite Fantasy opens of all time.
  19. I've always had a hard time taking DiCaprio seriously for some reason, but I've been really looking forward to this film just the same. Thanks, Nict.
  20. My Enemy is back. After a match whispers: him: come duel me or stfu me: lol you're the one running their mouth. and i solo'd you three times last match. keep coming it'll happen more. bet him: we're going to destroy your fucking country and i'm coming for you [he's Russian, and has convinced himself I'm a Ukrainian specifically there to troll him] me: good luck with THAT, bolshoi balls him: [rages incoherently for 5 mins]
