Just started playing Mafia III this week. Came in with super low expectations, and I gotta say, I love it.

Are you playing the original or the remake? I heard the remake is super buggy.

The Definitive Edition. Not buggy at all for me. I did hear that if you upgraded the original it was buggy as hell though.

Kenobi Part 3

Oh yes. OHHHH YES. Yes yes yes. Thank you Disney, thank you.

I have even more canon questions with what they're doing, but I'm definitely enjoying it so far and I'm willing to just forget that stuff for now. Sometimes I think Star Wars fans get so wrapped up in canon and arguing over everything that they forget it's supposed to be fun. It doesn't have to be a masterpiece of writing and acting.

Shit gets retconned all the time. Life is too short. I enjoy all the Vader and Kenobi content I can get!

Still hoping John Madden gets an NHL head coaching gig one of these years and EA will give us a parody cover.

I'm a pretty big Bill Burr fan but Friends Who Kill was terrible. Confusingly bad given some of the talent on that stage.

All I'm going to say about the latest episode of Obi-Wan is somebody on that writing team played Jedi Fallen Order.

 

[Jack Be Quick]

I'm probably way late to the game - as I was with Cosby - but Seinfeld was f***ing a 17 y/o when he was 39?

And that guy has the balls to lambast other comedians for cursing too much.

Never, ever let your guard down around a smug preacher.

Another year, another buggy Madden. 2005 was the peak for NFL gaming.

I used to play a ton of Madden when my post-college roommate provided the communal PS2. We all moved out on our own in 2009 and I got a PS3 for myself. I bought Madden a couple times after that and just never got back into it (and the PS3 became a glorified Bluray player). Apparently I chose a good time to stop playing as I've heard it just got worse / stagnant over the years.

 

[MadDevil]

I do appreciate how much of a powerful and menacing Vader they've shown in Obi-Wan. I think this last episode was the best so far and kind of what I thought the whole show would be like. Hopefully they end it with another strong episode next week.

I don’t know how I missed Barry coming back, but I’m pumped to watch it now.

This is another show that I'm looking forward to catching up on.

Right now we're finishing Kim's Convenience. The last season is not as good as the others, but it's still funny.

I started watching Rome and am making myself finish season 1 before I catch up on Barry.

Stranger Things finale is crushing it.

That is, until I found out they filmed half of the scenes in a former concentration camp and turned it into an airbnb. Yes, literally.

Do better.

Where did they film?

 

[Jack Be Quick]

Where did they film?

Lukiškės Prison - Wikipedia

Alcatraz is f***ed up, but not anywhere near this. Could've filmed there and not turned it in to a hotel.

Or just spent more on cgi? Idk, the whole thing seems exceptionally crass and wasteful to me.

Rome was such a good show. It feels like it doesn't get as much love as some other HBO shows.

Just finished the last season of Peaky Fooking Blinders and can not wait for the movie that's supposed to wrap it all up, although it'll probably be a couple years from the sound of it.

Yea its great, top notch acting. I tried to get my wife into it by saying the doctor from Grey’s Anatomy was in it, but no dice lol. New Peaky Bloinduhs is in the queue too.

I need to catch up on the last season of Peaky Blinders. Seems like they did a good job with ending the show, from what I've heard.

Ms Marvel on Disney + is absolute hot garbage. It’s the first Disney + show or Marvel movie to truly disappoint me or be near unwatchable. Got about 1.5 episodes in and just can’t do it anymore.

 

[Oneiro]

Rome was so good. Too early for it's time, would've been a massive hit had it come out just five years later.

But I guess HBO learned a lot of lessons from that show that it applied to GoT and others.

 

[Ripshot 43]

Well now I have Rome and the Wire on my HBO lists of shows I probably should’ve watched a long time ago because of all of you.
