It's December and 2016 can't end soon enough.

Ah, but it can! Because as bad as everything else is, there'll always be Christmas presents to help things go out on a high note.

Ant Man is kind of sad because it never would have been a thing in the MCU if not for Edgar Wright.

I'd heard a lot about Prince and Lemmy Kilmister, but it was only with their deaths I actually listened to any of their music. Sad, but they ended up being artists I love a lot. Still not really into Bowie, though-I know he's gone through a lot of styles but none of what I've heard really does all that much for me.

Well it not being his film is entirely his own fault.

If I know teens, they'd probably think having a birthday on 9/11 was "metal as gently caress, dawg". Kids these days still listen to Marilyn Manson, right?

I've been sick the last few days with particularly agonizing pain today. But, on the plus side, no more fever, and it's surprisingly easy to rattle through media when you're laid up sick and can't concentrate enough to give a gently caress. I watched a bit of The Walking Dead yesterday and my conclusion was that it was emotionally manipulative grimdark bullshit, but Daryl is cool and good.

The first few seasons of Smallville were pretty good, I have fond memories of that era.

I am trying to think about at least 2 comics starring famous fans of alcoholic beverages (not necessarily alcoholics) and so far all I got is Wolverine. Which other characters like a drink and what kind of drink do they like?

I liked Spellbinder...

Outside of that, though, yeah, it wasn't a great assemblage of villains. The Jokerz and Blight were good, but the Jokerz were just two bit mooks for flavor and Blight was totally Norman Osborne. But the one shots were great.

So the idea of the symbiote being the good guy in the equation is interesting but the execution is like a bad rip off of The Darkness and I kind of hate it?

It's called being stylized. But more importantly, the gun! The gun is so beautiful! I'm in such awe... :allears:

If the protagonist wasn't a pacifist I would be too in love with it to watch anything else.

At this point, the only thing that surprises me about 2016 is that it hasn't managed to take Keith Richards and Shane MacGowan too.

In spite of all the terrible real world things that happened, I'll always remember this as the year all the heroes spent more time fighting each other than anybody else. Whether it was Netflix, The CW, or the big screen, the superheroes just couldn't resist punching each other in the face. It made me sad.

That's like the past decade and a half.

I mean, it's a tragedy, but kind of heartwarming too. Johnny Cash and his wife only had a few months between each other, I believe.

I got a PS4 Pro for Christmas. I'm really thrilled. I get to play a lot of great games I thought I'd never get the chance to, except for Vanquish. I'll never play Vanquish and that makes me a depressed motherfucker.

But Doom? Doom is allllllll mine.

I'm gonna let you in on a secret: Platinum is now bizarro-Treasure and their licensed stuff is massively trash. Never buy it day one, let some other sucker eat the bullet and see if it's worth a drat.

But Transformers Devastation and more importantly, Revengence! This was before Zero and TMNT sort of destroyed my faith in them delivering a consistent product. No longer could I look upon Platinum as the shining seal of a good game, like I had Bioware before Dragon Age 2.

Teenage Fansub posted:

Have you tried the Nier Automata demo on PS4? Platinum are the devs on that.

Goddamn it, I'm hype as hell for Automata and I didn't know that. Now I'm even more confused! How can I be loyal to a brand when they keep being this...random with their quality!?

I'm giving Suda51 another chance with Let It Die after I really loving hated Killer Is Dead.

Mutant X the TV show was a poorly disguised ploy by Marvel to try and do an X-Men show without Fox. They got sued, I believe.
