I have been into Star Gate Universe (just started the second season) and also Fringe. I went from Deep Space 9, which was the last time I posted in this thread, to ST: Discovery, then to ST: Strange new worlds. I have three seasons of both. I have read a lot about season 4 of strange new worlds and I am sort of on the fence whether I want to go beyond the third season. I totally dislike the fact that what they call a season now-a-days is at best 13 episodes. That is just not enough. When you have 22 or 25 episodes then whenever they have one of those daffy episodes that causes you to grit your teeth there is enough to balance out the series and accept it as a fluke and move on. It is sad because Strange New Worlds has some great actors that are top notch and I like seeing them perform. Whoever is responsible for this, I think they are wasting a good moment. I went back to the original Star Trek before heading into where I am now.
I have been thinking about X Files while watching Fringe.......

General Discussion / The Good Place
Last post by BLUEVOODU - October 01, 2026, 04:58:52 PMHas anyone watched The Good Place? This is an awesome show. The premise is there are a group of people that go to hell... or the bad place, but they do not know it. There are 4 of them from the start. There is an architect (demon that they don't know is a demon) that is pretending like it is a good place. He essentially is torturing them through what appears to be good scenarios lol.
The humans finally figure out what's going on... but there are a ton of Hilarious scenarios that occur. There are 4 seasons and it ran from Sept 2016 to January 2020... JUST before the pandemic. They closed off the show well.
So many shows like Chuck have horrible endings. However, this had a great ending. Have you seen The Good Place? What did you like / dislike?
Thoughts... comments... post it up!

looking at the switch version. This is a must have. Bomberman on the Turbo Grafx 16 was a family thing as my Daughter was growing up. I was the Black Bomberman. My Wife, Daughter, and I spent a lot of time blowing each other up. There was certain little tweaks that I felt made the TG16 version the best. One was the graphics at the end of a round where everyone got blown up. We were all in a pile and smoke was coming off of it.
That's awesome - and the Turbo Grafx 16 has a wonderful version. It was a lot of fun. Do you do Nintendo Switch online?
IDK... maybe if we can get more people together playing this... that would be kind of fun!
@Bomberman might also be interest!

Last post by targetrasp - September 29, 2026, 10:23:11 PMI'd be interested to see if that share play thing mentioned in gamefaqs actually works. I've never used it, know it existed. I'm ordering the ps5 version from the link out of sheer curiosity.
according to the amazon product page when asked is this multiplayer
"Yes, the Super Bomberman Collection supports local multiplayer for up to 2 players. You can play versus matches with a friend on the same console.
However, this collection does not feature online multiplayer — it's local co-op and versus play only. All the included titles (7 games with 12 versions total) support 1-2 player local gameplay."

General Discussion / Re: Avengers Endgame: Encore
Last post by targetrasp - September 29, 2026, 10:12:06 PMSuperhero movies haven't been faring well for a while now. Cost have ballooned so if it doesn't make a billion it's a wash. Costs seemingly have film makers in a panic, attempting to attract more to the audience, all-the-while alienating large swaths of the already built-in audience with liberties taken. The internet has given everyone with an opinion a platform to spew said opinions all over the masses causing bias. Some of this is net nerds and trolls looking for clicks, some of this is stakeholders paying influencers and enlisting internet trickery to skew reviews and bias in their favor. Honest discussion likely exists, just good luck finding it.
Be it mishandling of an IP, the toxic environment, or just mid quality storytelling very few movies have resonated with me in a while. Excitement is tepid.

General Discussion / Re: Avengers Endgame: Encore
Last post by BLUEVOODU - September 29, 2026, 09:12:18 PM@targetrasp - I am tempted to do the same. We are on the fence... talked about it a bit more. Just not sure if we are attending. It also seems like they might be expected a smaller crowd this time around. The amount of showings offered are reduced ... especially for a new movie coming out.
