    Pineapple Express: Someone Is Wrong on the Internet?

    Look, I really want more people to play this game and I think a lot of y'all would really dig it!

    What videogames are you playing in 2025?

    I also forgot to mention that Blue Prince has better, deeper worldbuilding and environmental storytelling than any From Software game

    What videogames are you playing in 2025?

    If you need more incentive to try this game, and it seems you all do, then I'm sure this is one of the places on the web where this will actually mean something to a bunch of people... Anyway, Blue Prince is primarily inspired by the 1985 book Maze: Solve The World's Most Challenging Puzzle by...

    Pineapple Express: Someone Is Wrong on the Internet?

    I'd say it's more of a disagreement than an argument

    What videogames are you playing in 2025?

    Hi, do you like designing dungeons, or dungeon crawling, and video games? Do you like solving puzzles and combing through details in your environment to figure out both lore and progress? Allow me to introduce you to your new favorite game, Blue Prince. Seems simple enough to start, in both...

    What Show Should Have Only Had One Season?

    Yes; please give me a Six of Crows series, leave the Ravka business way out of it. Shadow and Bone were Leigh Bardugo's first books and it shows; there's a reason they pulled in the cast from the better books in the first place. And even then, they did a really great job with the first sesaon...

    Trailer Marvel Studios’ Thunderbolts* | Final Trailer |

    Same... and it's not like we didn't like Nat either. I'd pay good money to see way more of Yelena and Kate Bishop together again

    Pineapple Express: Someone Is Wrong on the Internet?

    I'm usually not really attracted to entertainment as "escapism", but things are so grim and so dark these days that I'd prefer at least a little bit of light, some smattering of hope. I'm just so tired of it

    What Show Should Have Only Had One Season?

    My entry for the latter is Shadow & Bone. I don't know if I've seen a bigger drop in quality in show from season 1 to season 2, and I'm including Heroes here.

    What Show Should Have Only Had One Season?

    I mean, there's two different concepts here: *A show that only needed a single season to tell its story but kept going anyway *A show that was only good for its first season but you could've been great if its later seasons were better Lots of examples of the second one; fewer good examples of...

    Pineapple Express: Someone Is Wrong on the Internet?

    Well, that's one more country on "I can never travel there" list. Not that there was any doubt, I guess...

    Pineapple Express: Someone Is Wrong on the Internet?

    It's like how in the 90's and 00's no matter what time it was you could scroll through basic cable and find an episode of some version of Law & Order playing.

    Yeah 2016 Ghostbusters had a whole massive hate campaign out for it well before it came out, and then it finally came out and it... was fine? Generally okay? Nothing spectacular outside of a legendary performance by Kate McKinnon? I mean between "Women Ghostbusters??!?! :mad:" and "Laura...

    Overrated/Underrated Geek Media

    I feel the exact same way about The Nutcracker and the Four Realms, honestly. Well, that film is mostly dull a good chunk of the time, but quickly morphs into "Beautiful Disaster" mode the moment Helen Mirren and/or especially Keira Knightly are on-screen.

    Overrated/Underrated Geek Media

    Yes, this, 100%. I don't know that I'd call it a good movie, but it is a movie where Helen Mirren fights Hussar terminators with a bull whip, and that's great fun. Also, Kiera Knightly as the Sugarplum Fairy is the wildest thing, just off the wall insane and so much fun. Other underrated...

    I mean, it is the best video game. I mean, it is, as objectively as you can be, perfect. Acknowledging anything less is underrating it, frankly. But also kids these days, old woman shakes fist at clouds, yadda yadda
