Same.

Thanks for letting me know. Is stopped watching most of my pull list due to God of War occupying my nights lately. Dropping a show will help me cull the number nicely, and I'd hate to waste my time with (more) pap.

The whole problem is the driving force of it is the school part, and that's the least enjoyable piece of it.

I just don't get all the Taika Waititi fellation. The last two Thor movies, while having entertaining moments, just weren't good. They've basically turned Thor into a running gag, and while that's fine with Guardians of the Galaxy, it's not fine with Thor. The latest Dr. Strange movie more or less made Wandavision required watching to really understand what was going on, and I'm not interested in going down those Disney+ rabbit holes.

Yeah, I'll never watch that show.

Will this show even be able to find an audience?

I never watched Urusei Yatsura before the remake started, so, yes, I think it will. The way things are these days, old and hokey has an odd charm about it...nostalgia, maybe?

My current watch list looks like this:
- Peter Grill S2 (because I need some trashy, low-class smut in the pull list)
- Do It Yourself (the total opposite; a sickly sweet show about high school girls building park benches)
- The Eminence in Shadow (increasingly not what I thought it would be...it's on the knife's edge of being dropped as it's a surprise isekai with a fighting harem and dueling school blah blah blah)
- Raven of the Inner Palace (unexpectedly interesting and entertaining; it's about palace intrigue in the Chinese empire focusing on a court consort the emperor can't actually screw)
- Spy x Family continuation (I've actually read the manga, so while its not new it's still super enjoyable)
- Uzaki-chan wa Asobitai S2 (truthfully I'm wishing the guy would snap and rage bang the idiot in the title, but anyway...I can't explain my watching of this)
- Urusei Yatsura (I feel this is something I was supposed to have seen 30 years ago but never really had an easy way to do so, so here we are)

I'm all in for the new Dad of War game. The last one was likely my favorite of the previous gen games (though I admittedly played Spiderman more thanks to the trickled DLC).

I've never been a Kevin Smith fan, but I'm particularly pissy over his shoddy Masters of the Universe reboot. It wasn't as bad as the really loud pricks say it was, but it certainly wasn't good. I won't watch anything he's pushing at this point.

I'm not interested in anything that isn't God of War Ragnarok at this point.

Can you believe they spent a quarter BILLION clams on the rights to LOTR but couldn't get the fucking Silmarillion? I don't know who is to blame: Amazon for being retards, or the Tolkien estate being greedy bitches. Either way that means they can't reference anything from it that isn't also in the ROTK appendices! I don't see how they thought they could do a prequel without the primary reference for it. They did sneak some visual references from some First Age artwork, but my fear of it turning out to be largely Tolkien fanfic is no longer just an extension of my natural cynical pessimism....

I've read a good chunk of the manga, and while it was a fun concept it doesn't look like they plan to move past that anyone soon. One-truck ponies just don't cut it with me and my limited available viewing time.

BIRTHDAY BUMP!

Enjoy the broken jpegs!

I finally downloaded all the Call of Duty game I bought a year ago but couldn't play because it required something like 100gbs of downloaded files (yay for Starlink). But it was so much damn trouble--signing up for multiple ancillary accounts, downloading like a half dozen separate components and then updates to each--I decided that if the game is as involved as its installation then I'm better off not fooling with it. If I can't pop the disc in and play it, or download, install, and play, then it can fuck right off. I am not a game whore who has the patience to twiddle around with shit like this anymore, if I ever was.

DanMachi is back, but this was not one of my favorite arcs from the LN. I'll watch it, but....

Of course, Disney's probably pretty gun shy about making Westerns these days.

Ha! Literally.
