Not sure if this is the right thread for this, but it ties into one of my two favorite movie franchises of all-time.

I couldn't help myself, I ordered this today:

Ghostbusters ECTO-1 Ghostbusters 1984 Sixth Scale Figure Rel

For those of you who are unfamiliar with size, 1/6th scale is...big.

That’s what I kept telling myself. And I kept visiting the site and feeling like I was going to kick myself if I didn’t order it.

There’s probably only two movies I would ever do this for - Ghostbusters and Back to the Future. Someday, when I am senile and can’t remember anything else, I’ll remember every line from those movies.

Anyone watch the documentary on Netflix about Bob Lazar?

I did. And then I went down the rabbit hole and started binge watching all sorts of conspiracy theories.

For those who watch Big Little Lies, when does the fun begin? I've gotten through first 5 eps of Season 1 and it just seems to be a bunch of PMSing going on (men and women).

I just feel like at that point you might as well buy the actual car. :laugh:
 
I am going to use my Pursuit Special to run Edge's DeLorean off the road the first time he takes it for a spin.

People need to throw out hot takes and hope a small segment of the population agrees with them. It is how they obtain validation.



The only thing that I did not like about season 3 is
that they made Robin gay. No, I am not homophobic you judgmental people. I just thought she would have been a great love interest for Steve. I feel like he keeps getting the shaft when it comes to women.

Same. I was disappointed when
Robin turned out to be gay. I was shipping her and Steve.

Any Archer fans here? I stopped watching after season 6 and just restarted the show and got through the first 7. Not sure I like where they are taking the series in season 8 and from what I read, 9 and 10 as well.

Love Archer. I have enjoyed every season, though I haven't gotten around to watching the last two. Too many shows on the backlog to get through, unfortunately.

Definitely an Archer fan, all the way back to Frisky Dingo and the Xtacles days.

But similarly kind of fell off around season 6/7. Of the recent seasons, might be unpopular but I really found myself enjoying Season 9: Danger Island. The Archer-Pam-Krieger trio are probably my favorites and they got to have their own little adventure that was more or less the main story. I had higher hopes for this season but feel it's been pretty hit or miss. The most recent episode, Road Trip (6), was one of my least favorite episodes in a while, just felt really off and then low and behold - written by the not-usual writer/creator which probably explained some of that.

But the episode before that Mr. Deadly Goes to Town - featuring a new fav: Matt Berry - might have been my favorite of the season. He's one of the vampires on the What We Do in the Shadows tv show, which took a bit to get rolling but I found myself really enjoying and looking forward to eps by the end of the season.

He has one of the most unique cadences and deliveries I've ever heard it just makes me laugh to hear him talk at this point.

Whats disappoints me is that there are rumors that it ends in season 10 and I don't really like the last three seasons being the equivalent of a long ass dream. :dunno:

Yeah, sadly I've heard this season is the last as well. But at the same time, I believe switching up the format and doing the single season genre swaps was kinda necessary for creator Adam Reed to have the enthusiasm/interest to be able to continue the show post seasons ~6/7 anyway.

I don't get the impression he's retiring or wrapping up the career though. So I'll definitely be looking forward to whatever his next project we get to watch will be.

Here's a relevant quote from Adam Reed:
AVC: What do you say to fans who say “We would like the ‘real’ versions of these characters back, please?”
AR: It’s tough, because I can totally see their point. And, you know, I read their comments, I lurk in the comment sections and read the reviews and totally get people’s points about that. But my goal has been—and obviously I haven’t reached it every time, or nobody would be upset—but my hope is that even though it’s a new setting and new roles for these characters, that people will become as invested in that season’s storyline as they were in previous seasons. And some people are. But definitely, some people aren’t. But I would want them to know that the people making the show feel just as emotionally invested in the lives of the characters. We root for them just as hard, even though it’s not, quote unquote, the “real” world of Archer. I worry about them just as much in a volcano as I do in a car chase shoot-out.

I also love Archer -- and I'm not a fan of animated shows....Have put off watching the latest season until I get all the episodes.
 
Any Avatar (animated) fans here? How bout Attack On Titan? I've really gotten into anime the past few years, really due to the awesomeness of the above two shows. The original Avatar completely blew up what I perceived to be the animated genre (kids toons versus adult comedies) and it became my first binge watch.
