To kick off the new thread... we just finished up binging Picard. 


I feel like we need to watch it again... it feels like parts were missed, or maybe that's the "filler" @targetrasp mentioned in the thread I created about Picard:

Picard - Is An Awesome Series

@CreepinDeth I remember others voting for an undated master topic of said subject back in the day.  This is cool... keeps 1 long string on insanity.  Though I do like the organization of different year topics.

Awesome post @Grindspine  --> Linus Definitely had a great video. Pretty funny... Nintendo... shut up and take my money.  :great:

I wonder how available these systems will be.  Also, interesting that it has the power of a Ps4 / Xbox One... These are 10 year old systems now.  I know Nintendo is not always on the leading edge of power, and the utilize what they have extremely well... creating some of the best games.  However, a little more power may not hurt.

Then again... they've thrived for a reason.

Avengers: Doomsday is looking to be a massive release.  Look at all the chairs... some X-men in there as well.  Not a spoiler... trailer is out.  I posted that Robert Downey Jr was back ... but as a different character in this post last summer:
Robert Downey Jr... what? New Avengers Movie

Now... we are seeing more.  It's looking to be pretty awesome.

Check out the trailer:



Thoughts, comments.... POST IT UP!

I am also going back through some of the older series.  It's pretty cool

Quote from: targetrasp on March 31, 2025, 07:05:19 PMI get the hate, when Marvel or DC takes too much liberty with some of the comic story lines I read as a kid, I took it as a put-off. Sometimes big changes work, other times they don't. People are always going to find issue when others take liberties with source material. I'm less resistant to it than some, I just ask for quality, which in general does seem to be fading.
Especially in this day and age... it really seems like everyone complains about everything.  I get it, there are opinions about... and strong opinions at that.

Outside the liberties taken... and coming from not 100% remembering every main or back story... It was very enjoyable to watch. Again, there were certain points that were rough and some over active at certain spots, but the series was very enjoyable to watch.  Maybe if I knew everything... and was a uber Trekkie or something... it might matter much more lol

Nintendo has dropped a launch trailer for the Switch 2!


Linus Tech Tips has a pretty good breakdown of confirmed information and some speculation on additional details for the new console release.

I vote for an undated Master Topic!

Recently finished all of the original Netflix Daredevil show in preparation for Born Again. Season 3 is a solid season and I'm glad I went back to it.

I loved it for what it was. There were flaws but it told an entertaining story. Die-hards will / did hate it. Without spoiling anything, there's a back story that was rushed and had liberties taken. Even the showrunner addressed it, basically admitting it was shoehorned in.

I didn't appreciate the earlier series until later in life and have not been through all of it yet. They were more soap than action, so I wrote them off and have only recently started watching the legacy stuff. The Next Generation movies were great and cut the fluffy stuff to seemingly attract a wider movie-going audience and was more my thing. I think that's why I liked Picard. It took a little more of the action route and had some ties to the Star Trek materials I most enjoyed.
