Same. Like, I personally enjoyed TLJ, and RoS I still am not keen on watching a second time since its theatrical run but like, not the worst. I can understand people being upset that there was no cohesive plan for the sequel trilogy run and I agree with it, but people who are just a little too vocal with their dislike of TLJ inevitably start pointing towards Daisy Ridley or Kelly Marie Tran as the reason and I immediately tune out and mark their opinions as irrelevant sexist trash. Like at the end of the day, Freddie Prinze Jr. said it best:This is literally me with Star Wars
Honestly, this. Any other movie I can think of that might come close is more than likely a book adaptation in some capacity, and arguably I think the only movie that has since come out that is an original property, with (hopefully) no need to expand with a franchise is Everything, Everywhere, All At OnceJames Cameron’s Avatar actually is pretty good
Like it had a neat idea for a movie and a lot of budget and you know what? I’ve seen neat ideas w/ big budget go way way way way worse
Shout out to it being the last big, successful action/adventure movie to come out that wasn’t in a pre-existing franchise that I can remember. Like honestly I think it deserves merit for that
That Charli XCX song for Super Nintendo World will probably make a comeback here, right? But yeah I fully expect a reanimated Bob Hoskins coming back to teach us how to Do The Mario™ for TikTok teensOk, place your bets. Will the Mario movie trailer have a generic pop song or a remixed trailer version of the Mario theme?
Britney was probably my first celebrity crush when I was like 8 years old and I still find that winking of hers endearing lolI want to keep responding with more gifs but I'm pretty sure almost everything in that music video is bannable
No, she definitely succeeded in winking.
twice, one wink with each eye
If anything, I'd like to address that in no way do I find your posts toxic positivity, and I genuinely appreciate when you do round up some good news now and then to take away from the doom and gloom that so often pervades the news and social media. Like, it's to a point where I actively bury my head more often than not when it comes to global affairs, and every time I do resurface I just see that it's actively getting worse whether it's Russia's aggression against Ukraine, the crackdown in Iran or the rise of fascist support across North America. I know it's irresponsible to completely shut out what's going on in the world entirely, but at least with something bright to look forward to, that there is some hope yet on this Earth that we can make efforts to support conservation, undo the damage of pollution and climate change, make meaningful progression in human rights for countries that don't yet already support it, like at least that gives some fuel to keep fighting for what's right.Speaking on positive vs negativity, I hope I don't come across as "toxic positive".
I spent most of my life as a fairly pessimistic person; the main reason I am so upbeat nowadays was that when I had cancer a few years ago I had sort of reprogram my brain to be more optimstic in order to not be overwhelmed by despair and terror.
After a while, I found that by consciously making an effort to be more positive, my quality of life and general mood improved greatly, and so I stuck with it until it became an ingrained part of my personality.
I also just find it a bit tiring that like 95% of gaming discourse on the internet nowadays is aggressively negative. It really bums me out, so I try to be a force for optimism whenever I can, as I find I just enjoy gaming and life more this way.
A friend of mine also came out of Avatar 3D and said he was stoked by the extra footage. I may have to find a reason to check it out in IMAX myself!Stopping by after driving from NY to PA today to say that Avatar is very solid and the theatrical re-release was a sublime experience this weekend. It's not a great script, but it's perfectly serviceable for a blockbuster, especially compared to much of the superhero genre these days (looking at you, Phase 4). The worldbuilding and below-the-line craftsmanship is masterful, and it's a really fun watch, even if it's probably a good 15 minutes too long. Props to Cameron for making an original, non-franchise, $300m film with staunchly anti-capitalist and anti-colonialism themes.
The five minutes of footage from The Way of Water was simply astonishing. My IMAX theater is also fitted with HFR (high frame rate) capabilities, which really enhanced the experience in a way that The Hobbit movies tried, but belly flopped.

"Here at EA we are always considering which platforms to support with our upcoming titles. Unfortunately, our data points out that so far in this generation the Nintendo Switch has accounted for 0% of our sales in the 3rd person action genre. Thus, we don't think this project is a good fit for the platform. Rest assured, though; FIFA 23 Legacy Edition is still coming soon to the Nintendo Switch family of systems".I can't believe Switch is about to miss an Omega Force game... for the first time... all thanks to goddamn EA.
Well, congrats on a sales bomba, I guess.
ThereI don't think I've posted yet today.
Hello.
I've literally had friends try to convince me that nobody ever bullied Daisy or Kelly and that all the online hate was people hired by Disney to create controversy (and that Disney wrote the letters that the two women posted when they left social media), all to sandbag the films so if anyone voiced valid negativity towards them they could automatically be labelled as sexists and racists. And therefore the overwhelmingly loud and negative "fan" reactions were a win because it proved that Disney couldn't silence them.but people who are just a little too vocal with their dislike of TLJ inevitably start pointing towards Daisy Ridley or Kelly Marie Tran as the reason and I immediately tune out and mark their opinions as irrelevant sexist trash.
Like at the end of the day, Freddie Prinze Jr. said it best:
Oh dang, unfortunately that is kinda out of my scope. I've never messed with amps or preamps, anything I've ever done with stereos was installing simple head units and wiring the speakers directly. I've never even heard of grounding speakers to the chassis, I've only ever sent the two wires per speaker back to their corresponding spots on the stereo. But again, that's without using amps or anything and I seriously dunno how that stuff works (my "loud music" has always come more from things like, ya know, sawzalling the muffler off or whatever )Also, as our resident mechanic on Famiboards, would you have any insight on preamps hardwired to car radios? Had my neighbour install a preamp on my '75 Pontiac (40w radio to all four speakers, they could use a lil boost lol), and when he reconnected the battery we realized you could hear the alternator whine when the radio is on. He's doing some research now on insulation, but do you think anything like running a line for the rear speakers direct to the radio instead of being grounded to the vehicle body might help any? If it's out of your scope no worries; just spitballing and hoping I can get this job done before it gets too cold to drive a convertible with the top down haha
Don't forget the recent election in Italy.and every time I do resurface I just see that it's actively getting worse whether it's Russia's aggression against Ukraine, the crackdown in Iran or the rise of fascist support across North America.

And that is why I don't talk about Star Wars with anyone anymore.
holy shit that's phenomenal
I am saving this and if I ever feel the need to open a can of worms with my social life I'm gonna USE IT

....republican?and calling him the r-word.
At some points I find it easier to abandon the wiring and just get a standalone kit and start from scratch, seriously. A friend of mine once had the taillights stop working on their VW Beetle, and popped the unit only to find the previous owner had joined the wires with household twist caps. You never know what the person before you did.like the previous owner of the car also installed a preamp that doesn't quite look stock, but it wasn't even plugged in, and made some hella weird modifications to the stock radio, so it might be a bit of an intense job either way to get it finished haha (mufflers are overrated anyways)
I lose my hair over Canadian politics as well, mostly because I've always looked at Canada as a potential place to escape to if America gets too bad, and now I'm seeing waaaaaaaay too many similar things up there for my liking so.. uh.. New Zealand?I feel like it might be for the best if I only lose hair over local Canadian politics and Conservative Leader Peepee who wants to invest our economy into NFTs
Getting ahead of yourself there, aren't ya? Are we sure a woodchuck could chuck wood?How much wood could a woodchuck chuck?

I mean, maybe that should have been the course of action, but he did spend several hours soldering in the preamp to ensure it would have an extremely solid connection and kept the wires all neat and tidy for the next time the radio would have to be pulled out just in case, so I think we're in too deep now But DAMN that sounds rough. You ain't wrong, but...yeah. Wouldn't even know how to get in touch with the old owner just because my uncle bought the car from Florida and had it shipped up north lolAt some points I find it easier to abandon the wiring and just get a standalone kit and start from scratch, seriously.
