So 21st Century Fox is in talks about selling their company to Disney. If that happens, Disney will be dominating all of media. All they need to buy now is Warner Bros and they’ll be the biggest thing on Earth.
I just recently watched Blade Runner 2049 too. Not sure why I did since I hated the original, but I really enjoyed the sequel.
WARNING, SPOILERS FOR BOTH BLADERUNNER MOVIES! Not sure how to spoiler tag...
Yeah, that's something I noticed too. How the child was created was never explained. Also, I think they intentionally left whether Deckard is a replicant or not a mystery again. There probably would've been some backlash from the fans if they confirmed it.
Although I hated the original... (Evil robot rips off all of his clothes after his girlfriend dies and chases the protagonist around while singing and laughing), I really enjoyed the sequel. I thought it had a good plot-line (unlike the original, which was just kinda meh). It had a good mystery present throughout the movie that kept me interested, the climax was done really well (unlike the original...). And also, Drax was in it!
But although I enjoyed the movie, it actually felt too long to me.
Anyway, I'm just ranting now. If you want to talk about the movie(s), feel free to PM me.
Finally watched Blade Runner 2049 yesterday. When I first walked out of the cinema, I was really frustrated because the movie left so many q… moreuestions unanswered. But then I spent the rest of the evening thinking about that movie... and realised how goddamn amazing it is. Not a masterpiece, but still the best movie that I saw recently in theatres and a rare example of a good sequel. Everything - the music, the setting, the framework - is cinematically perfect, the actors are great - not to mention an introguing plot combined with important moral lessons. Funnily, even though the movie was almost 3 hours long, it still felt faster than the original Blade Runner. As much as I love it, the first movie had bad pacing IMO.
Also Blade Runner 2049 got me weirdly emotional in the end. I usually never cry at movies, especially at the ones like these, but I was genuinely touched by Deckard's story. I was on the verge of tears in the end.

Well, the deal is on the table once again. It’s actually all over the news when you search it up. This deal alone will make Disney a mega company. Not to mention it’ll get tons of money alone by having the X-Men universe and the MCU crossover.
Don't you love it when you see one of the more unique English words used on a forum?
A word that isn't commonly used, being used somewhat improperly.
I get a slight giddy feeling about it. Ooooooo someone learned a new word and needed to show it off. I'm game. I'll hang it on the fridge with a gold star.
(I purposely waited a few days since this happened. Happy hunting if you're trying to figure it out)
Oh and this isn't a holier than thou thing. Everyone does it. I just think it's funny when I notice itt.

If you go under the symbol that looks like a backwards "P" and and "I" you can find the spoiler tag there. Or you can just use >! before each paragraph you want tagged.
And thanks for the heads up about the spoiler. I never got the chance to watch the bladerunner series, though I want to.

So that means Disney is going to buy Fox's Marvel Universe (X-Men and Fantastic Four)?
If it happens, MCU will finally get to make movies everyone has been asking for like:
Avengers vs X-Men
Deadpool and Spider-Man crossover
Wolverine and Deadpool crossover (The real one, not the one from X-Men Origins Wolverine)
A good Fantastic Four movie
The things that might go wrong is the casting and Deadpool's character. They might not hire Ryan Reynolds to play Deadpool because they don't want to confuse the audience with the different universes and the next Deadpool movies might not be rated R. PG rate never belonged to Deadpool, the most violent anti-hero of Marvel Comics.

100 years ago, the history of my county and probably the entire world has changed drastically - the October Revolution happened and bolsheviks got their power. For 70 years it was one of the most important celebrations, yet today the centenary is absolutely silent, almost awkward. It's like nobody is sure how to feel about it. Everyone pretends like nothing is going on. I guess it's our history and we must accept it, but the sudden ignorance... so weird. Foreign media speaks about the centenary more than we do. Proves once again how controversial Russian history was. Or maybe our government doesn't want to bring up revolution right now, when so many people aren't happy with the way things are?
Anyway, cheers to all the communists here. It's still a very important date, especially for me. Anyone here is also interested in the revolution history?
I'm in the minority here but I'm excited for the Unbreakable sequel coming soon from M Night, I thought Split was a great turnaround and the reveal at the end was too good for me not to be hyped to see what he does. I'm the biggest Unbreakable fan too so I will always have a soft spot for his first 3 movies when I think of the worst.
Story time: I stayed home today because I was feeling pretty bad and I can work online so an absence isn't really an issue. I slept through pretty much the whole day two hours at a time and I've only felt a little bit better now.
I figure I can handle one or two lessons so I get online and I just. hm. I figured it would only be 10 questions, like it usually is, but surprise! It's a 50 question test that I HAVE to get done in one sitting.
Edit to avoid double-posting: I got kicked out of the test for inactivity while I was doing dishes and I made a 12. It's bad, don't get me wrong, but considering I only did 8 questions I'm just going to let it slide until I go back to school.
He used to write some really good and even iconic stories for Marvel. Most notably Ultimate Spider-Man as well as creating Miles Morales. But the past few years he's been putting out some really bad stuff. He has no regard for continuity, he's written characters completely out of character (pretty much made every character he writes talk like Spider-Man along with a few other things).
It doesn't help that he (before leaving) wrote like ten different series as well as headed a few big comic events like Civil War 2 (which was just straight poop).
Thankfully he's now got a deal with DC so hopefully Marvel will get some new/better writers to do stuff now.
Had a small party at a restaurant to celebrate one of my best friends 21st birthday, gave some cool ass presents, got to hang out with friends, ate 22 buffalo styled wings, had a couple drinks.
Feeling pretty shitty after hearing about the layoffs at Telltale yesterday, especially with how they closed all job opportunities in the cinematic and writing departments. As a sophomore in college who hopes to work for Telltale one day, this is very disheartening.
Some asshole driver almost ran me over in a crosswalk a few minutes ago, glad I kept my eyes peeled so I could jump out of the road. I wanted to teach him a lesson but since I didn't get injured, I minded my own business but I glared at him to notice that he almost touched me.
Played the entire Zero Escape series recently, damn, I wish other games would use video games to tell stories only video games can tell the way they did
There was a kid in my class when I was around 8-9 and he was an uncle, which I thought was so weird at the time.
You don't have to be old to be an uncle.

Nope, it’s dead in the water.
Recently finished Uncharted: The Lost Legacy. Great game!

It's just that Freddy had only 15 minutes screentime and only 2 deaths have happened.
Michael Bendis is no longer working at Marvel.
THANK YOU GOD.
Just bought tickets to a midnight screening of a film this Saturday night. I would say what movie it is, but I cannot tell you, it's confidential.
Enjoy your screening of The Rocky Horror Picture Show!

Both you and WarpSpeed are wrong, but Warp is a bit closer to what it actually is.
A live, on-stage version of Rocky Horror?
Never been to one, but I do know they exist. They perform the whole thing in front of the movie.
Is it Shock Treatment!?
RIP Doc Halladay
From Canadian sports fans.
Tragedy.
@Johro, you've been here for 6 years and you've never started a discussion before?!
I haven't started a topic on any forum since about 2007. I've got a good thing going.
(Edit. Sorry. I had the year wrong)
'Anyways how's your sex life?'
...sounds like you need to get a Room.
Fun Fact!
A man whom was convicted of "Soliciting to Murder" had previously covered Megadeth"s Killing Is My Business on an album.
Was he really important to the company or someone everyone hates?

This is great, just FUCKING great. I trusted you Rockstar.
Found out I’m going to be an Uncle soon. I feel kinda old now, honestly.
I've been really tired this past couple days, missing my 3 year forum anniversary. Oy vey. Tomorrow I got a blood donation, that'll be tiring.
I hope you guys are doing better!
I'm on a roller coaster of feeling fine then feeling ill.

Lol, the r/Incels subreddit finally got banned. Took them long enough to do it.
