1990 TMNT was flat out a better movie than Spider-man 2. The only interesting thing in SM2 was the dynamic between peter and otto. Everything else was average at best. 

 

In TMNT tho, you had an entire cast of characters who all got development time instead of just 2.

I disagree.  I think this article hits most of the points (I can find lots talking about why Spider-Man 2 is amazing ).  TMNT was also a great movie but calling Spider-Man 2 average at best is silly.

Turtles over Spider-Man 2?  I am genuinely shocked by this.

Says the guy with the Ninja Turtles banner...but a Spider-Man nickname.  I am clearly torn still.

We're back in the happiest timeline.

Well you're certainly consistent.

You guys all have much stronger results than I do.  I can't say that surprises me.  I'm always middle of the road.

I really should start making a list of shit I want to watch.  I'd probably just use Google Keep tbh.  Making lists in there is easy.

Of course I have a tendency to just go, you know, get it when I want it so the list is my Plex anime area.

Your name looks like the tagline for a product used for removing hair from women's legs.  GLASS HOUSES, XYLUS.

But for real I did not know this for quite a long time actually.  Probably well into my teenage years.  Was like "what the hell are these pictures where they're all red??" because no incarnation since has done that since the first cartoon gave them all their own colors.

You still can btw.  Just sayin.

First Iron Man was fantastic.  The Blade movies honestly...are alright.  They never really did it for me.  I watched them all with Jovanna recently and they were just not THAT awesome.  They weren't bad though.  It would be interesting to see them continue again with all the advances we've seen with comic movies.

Apparently Hime is my doppleganger on this one.  Finished voting and only saw 1 bar for each question.

Also fuck.  There are a lot of difficult ones in here.

• Batman Returns was so fucking good but Captain America Civil War is one of the best MCU movies.
• Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles movie???  FUCK.  It's against quite honestly the best Spider-Man movie ever made.  FUCK.
• Avengers vs Spider-Man Homecoming...god damn it.  Avengers was so like...groundbreaking at the time but Homecoming is just a better movie in general imo.
• X-Men 2 vs the first Kingsmen...fuuuuuuuuuuuuuck.  Probably, again, the BEST X-Men movie potentially (First Class gives it a run for its money and the first X-Men was also VERY groundbreaking).  Kingsmen came out of left field and was fucking incredible.  Hilarious.  God damn it.

Fucked with the color balance a little to make it look closer to the avatar.  I think that looks good?  I dunno.  Lol.  Original is hard to find in a super good quality anyway.

As usual I didn't actually do THAT much work but I rediscovered this old TMNT poster/cover from long ago after being inspired by Matt's new banner/avatar.  Still kinda workshopping the yellow tint on the banner to match the comic cover.

For the avatar, I couldn't really find a good place to cut, so I found something completely different.  A cool recreation of the first Fantastic Four cover.

LOOK AT THEM AND GIVE ME PRAISE.

I think I just liked the place and people I knew at school went there so I just wanted to stick with it.  Plus honestly like Ralph, @Truami, and @Mogwai were like computer nerd heroes to me very quickly and I wanted to learn all I could from them (mostly ended up being Ralph who would show me things on AIM like the PHP code for the main site ).  I think my desire to just learn shit won out. 

Also I wasn't really part of any kind of real community before this place.  Quickly learned of so many more memes, so many more tech things, and all that.  I was in a place where people with more internet knowhow would just drop shit all over the place for me to figure out.  I was so fucking dorky because I'd never gone through all the shit you guys went through in the like 2000-2003 phase and it was probably like looking back at a stupid mirror of yourselves with disgust.  "Ugh I used to be like that?"

It's not a particularly long test for this one.  Takes maybe 5 minutes.

I really do feel like I gravitate between a blend of the two styles I'm reading about.  Kind of depends on how I feel/how motivated I am and stuff.

My thing is that when I want something, I go and I do it.  If I think something is dumb at work, for instance, I go right to my bosses and tell them my ideas and I can be quite forceful about it but I often do get them to listen.I tend to lead somewhat but generally because other people really don't want to.I tend to lead somewhat but generally because other people really don't want to.

But I also care about people's feelings.  I organized this forum so it could be somewhere nice for people that wanted a chill atmosphere because I missed them.

Been a while since we did one of these.

I took it twice and got ESTJ then ESFJ.  I tend to go back and forth between thinking and feeling.  I don't like upsetting people but I FEEL like people should be logical.

ESTJ:

ESFJ:

Main thing is that I am not very strongly one way or the other tbh.

That is actually kind of true.  I had no home forum before here.

You're almost about to level up your user title bruh.  Keep at it.

Watch it all over.  It's nice when it's on Netflix because I'm lazy.

Legit:

• Hulu (avoid like the plague because we have the commercial plan free through my friend's Sprint account and can't upgrade to commercial free )
• Netflix

The Old Ways:

• Nyaa
• Animebytes

I knew you'd like Saru.  Reminds me of Odo, another MaJr character.

Not even too late, too early.

All signs point to it coming this year tho.

New This Week at Bungie

Seems like they're still doubling down on those fucking enhancement cores.  Trying to put more ways to earn something that is basically the same as legendary shards but more annoying to get.

Strengthen Your Core
As you make progress in Season of the Drifter, you’ll be making choices about which weapons and armor you want to power up first. We’ve been following the conversation around the use of Enhancement Cores for infusion. As a response, the Destiny Dev Team have some changes lined up that they want to share.  

    Destiny Dev Team: The goal of the infusion system is to create an impactful feeling of progression when you increase the Power of an item you enjoy using. An infusion system with no scarcity around the materials would diminish this impact. To that end, we tapped into a material with inherent scarceness, Enhancement Cores, to use as one of the keystone materials for this process.

    That is the goal the infusion system, but if the overall system is causing a negative experience, we want to work to improve it. We’re constantly monitoring the infusion economy to see what kind of impact it has on gear usage. We keep a close eye on the amount of infusion materials being earned versus how many are being used and will continue to make adjustments as needed.

    To that end, we’ll be making a change in Season of Opulence with the goal of providing more access to Enhancement Cores.

    Scrapper Bounties previously dropped randomly when dismantling gear. There was no reliable way to earn Enhancement Cores using these bounties, and we didn’t feel they were providing enough materials. We will be deprecating these bounties at the start of Season 7. (Note that any unfinished Scrapper Bounties still in your inventory when the new season begins can still be completed before their natural expiration.) In their place, the Gunsmith will now offer a selection of daily and weekly bounties that can be purchased for Gunsmith Materials. As with the Scrapper Bounties, each of these will include, among other things, an Enhancement Core as a reward when completed.

    Our hope is that this increased access and control over Enhancement Core acquisition will help improve the balance of materials being earned vs. materials being used. As always, we’ll be continuously monitoring this item economy, along with your feedback to assess its effectiveness.

Been thinking of hopping back in real quick to get whatever free shit you get from choosing between the Drifter and Vanguard (Drifer looks shady af so no thx bruh).  This DLC has honestly been really disappointing so fro to me.  Anyone playing the Season of the Drifter stuff yet?

Wish I had a song to share but I'm very much looking forward to the new Tool album.  Was the first thing that came to mind.  Wish they'd fucking do it already.

This is what I get for trying to type from my phone.

Looks like it'll be on console as well as PC, and PC has listings for Steam, Epic, GoG and Paradox's own laucher as available pre-order sources.

Better preorder on a Steam before Epic pays them to take it out of there.

I really loved season 1 of Discovery just because they fucking went for it big time. 

I am also extremely excited for the new Picard show.  Please hurry up.
