I'm going May 7! If any EnWorlders would like to meet at a tavern for a drink that night, DM me!

Episode 8 took out S3 with a bang. Some major changes from the books. Still seems very confident in where it's headed. At this point, I'm thinking they'll need 7 seasons to tell the full story. Hope they get picked up for the rest of it soon.

Fair enough, if we were picking favorite Superhero movies of all time, Age of Ultron and X:2 would be tops for me. I can rewatch those two flicks on endless repeat. Exactly my point, Clint, SFX and CGI aren't everything! I'm actually not a huge original Superman fan myself (I know, heresy)...

Thank you for pointing me to the Wiki, already proving immensely helpful! That's gonna be quite the rabbit hole for me.

Wait, are you arguing that Black Panther doesn’t stick the landing because of a couple of mediocre SFX? The dramatic action, characters and themes of the movie are landed perfectly at the end.

Just finished Winter's Heart (wow that ending)! I'm still trying to process everything that happened in that final chapter (need to read it again) but is there a good online guide to WoT? I feel like I've jumbled up some characters and events, and am having trouble connecting everything and...

Bozeman was great but it's the fully realized villain, and Jordan's portrayal of him, that elevates this movie to incredible heights. What's important isn't just the representation, it's the tackling of big themes that matter to today, and making the audience think and empathize with these...

This is tough! I think to tackle this question, I'd first put together a list of Hall of Fame Superhero movies. That is, those films that you can't tell the story of the evolution of the genre without. My HOF: Superman (1978) Batman (1989) X-Men: X-2 (2003) The Dark Knight (2008) Iron Man...

Maybe it's all of the visual rhyming with Gandalf's last stand in FotR, but I expect Loial to be back at some point. As for Alana, well, it does make sense that the focus of any attack against a force with Ae Sedai would be on taking out the wizards (sorcerers) quickly. They are battlefield...

While it didn't have the same emotional impact for me that 4 and 6 this season, I really admire what a well executed battle this was on screen. Some big changes from what I remember from the books, will be interesting to see how that plays out.

Strange thing, but the scenes have looked great on my TV, and poorly lit night scenes are one of my ultra pet peves in modern television.

Agree that the story was well served by the way it played out, but stand by my statement that it being 'obvious' that it was the kid wasn't the reason. Though I also probably overreacted to fitz's choice of that word in the context of his comment. It was also a great choice to not make it...

Wow wow wow! Episode 6 is just everything I want from a fantasy series. Action, drama, humor, suspense. The pacing of this episode is just amazing the way it whips you from having a good time to being terrified to being devastated. And the economy of the storytelling was just off the charts...

I'm gonna go in a bit of a different direction and say the Anita Blake Vampire Hunter series by Laurell K Hamilton. Think True Blood meets Bosch with a female lead, well over 20 books to pull the series from, and an overarching plot line that keeps getting weirder and more gonzo. Not to...

It kills me that the current era of cinematic storytelling has trained viewers to think that foreshadowing is a bad thing.

This year I'm working on my 8th playthru (4th Honor) of BG3, my first playthru of Solasta (fun! and very very strict 5e implementation), and about halfway thru Metaphor (was obssessed with this when I first picked it up last year, burned out, and just now picked it up again, which is the same...

Got off the couch about 10 years ago to run an Olympic triathlon. Took me 1.5 years to get there, but did it. Since then, I’ve tried to keep the routine even if I don’t run the race. One 5k and one 10k run per week, 1 hour elliptical and 1 40k bike ride per week, 1 1.6k and 1 3.2k swim per week...

I'm pretty much out on the MCU at this point, though Pascal being in F4 maaaybe will get me to go see that. The cast lineup does nothing for me in terms of the new Avengers movie, but if the trailers look fun and the reviews are decent I might see them as well, but I'm not even trying to keep...

Me too! Made me think that perhaps they really haven't totally abandoned the project. Perhaps it really is just taking a different form and then will grow more cautiously from there as they see how people engage with it.
