Teen me always thought Total Recall was better than Terminator 2. Cynical adult me recently rewatched Total Recall and realized how small the budget is vs Term 2 or modern blockbusters, and while I can't say TR is better anymore, I appreciate all that they were able to make with their budget.

Uhh, people can do math and realize how many days are involved with the extremely common Sunday, Sunday, then Thursday game schedule, yes? (Or even Monday Sunday Thursday, if it has ever happened.) Don't get me wrong, the NFL should just cave and add another floating bye week for scheduling...

There's only one options that matters:

I don't think the Packers are even good this year, much less prohibitive favorites, which will probably start to be clear when they lose to the Colts this weekend. I'm not _entirely_ willing to write off the Saints without Brees, as someone gets the 7th seed, so they just need to stay ahead of...

I can see classic losing some subs in BC then picking up steam again once they hit LK, which should subsidize a couple more Retail expansions. I don't know how many people have real nostalgia for Cataclysm (Classic 2.0) or Draenor (BC 2.0) though.

The smartest way to play the game, for years, has been to sub for a month at launch, sub for a month at the tail end of Expansion.1 / beginning of Expansion.2, another month at tail end of Expansion.3/Expansion.4, repeat. Unless you are really in love with raiding or haven't broken your...

I am going to be a contrarian and say I don't get it. It's not like Wonder Woman needs to come out or the plotlines to The Batman a d The Suicide Squad won't make sense, and with production as shuttered as it has been this year, it's not like WB will have a huge roster to put out next year...

Compared to the demonic invasion prepatch (Legion?), this is a god damn slog, trickling out loot that will be irrelevant in weeks regardless, with the high point being a couple extra inventory slots (compared to the, what, Draenor bags most of us have on our alts?). If this is their sales pitch...

Is the bag why people are killing the nameds? After doing so much Icecrown for all the mounts / pets / etc. back in the day, I ran through the 'new' quests in five minutes and left.

All sarcasm aside, who is the Pats' QB next year, especially when the pick could be anywhere from top 5ish to middle of the pack?

Nice of the Pats to leave the Jets 0-16 hopes alive.

The scenario I would hate the most is 49ers stick with Garappolo on a one year deal that's reasonable for both sides... ... then Rodgers is traded for / gets released to make way for Love and comes back to California.

Uhh, Siddig and Robinson always played Garak and Bashir as if they were flirting. The twist would have to be that Dax has swapped to an S&M leather daddy (or whatever the term is) and they have a gay poly relationship. O'Brien, as the last straight white male on the show, would either never be...

Given how the rest of new trek has turned out, why do you want them desecrating that horse too? Picard already establishes the future sucks, so the question is just which talking point(s) the show actually consists of ( vs the material they were supposedly reviving). I am thinking it becomes...

Well, given that playoff ticket prices are higher than average and player playoff salaries are much lower than average, every (home) playoff game is going to result in significant additional net income. That said, the Packers situation is weird from an accounting perspective. I would suspect...

They charged them, but they then refunded the money or are holding it for 2021 tickets. https://www.packers.com/tickets/season-ticket-holder-policies Refunds shouldn't be income, and even if those 2021 fees count as 2020 income, that's just shorting their 2021 income. AFAIK, the NFL is only...

Only the first place seed in each conference gets a bye, so that week off will be the only edge if the playoffs get bubbled to a neutral field. Not that I see that particularly working for orgs the size of NFL rosters. I could see Hotel decontaminations and detentions for the week(s) a team is...

Well, the early coach firings seem to suggest owners are treating this like a lost season, and figuring they may as well reset early. Speaking of covid, as soon as a team can't merely reschedule to get all their games in, the NFL will _have_ to give everyone another bye week for fairness...

Shocking, an expansion with a squish left us weaker than the day before. Like usual, the crappier your gear, the relatively weaker you are after the squish, but it seems extremely noticeable this time around. Guessing TTK is double if not quadruple what it was yesterday.

Yeah, the Chargers are really gonna lose this. Given how injury ruined so many teams are, it will be very interesting to see the final records of the worst divisional winner and wildcard. Do we finally see a 6-10 playoff team?

I am not even an internet accountant, but Netflix has lost billions every year. There was some talk things were about to come to a head in 2020 when the pandemic led to a bunch of new subscriptions which pushed any potential reckoning down the pike.

Yeah, going for it did not make sense, kicking a field goal means Seattle has to get a touchdown and a 2 point conversion just to tie. Now Seattle has to just score a touchdown and they win.

Someone has to have a "Days lost by Week One starters due to injury" counter, right? Also, does anyone get cut for anything non-criminal, when people are going down at this rate?

It was nice of the Chiefs to let the Raiders score once before they demolished them.

Falcons pass defense is, um, not great atm, imagine if the Packers had NFL-level wide receivers.

Actually, Burns is right, the Deep checks his own head hasn't exploded at that point, so the head popper is likely someone in the church. Given that Stormfront previously said she was a member long ago, it looks like the Scientology parallels will be literal, as they 'promote' normal people to...

If you watch that bit again, Shockwave doesn't get popped until after the PR lady starts yelling that the superheroes should do something, though I can't imagine how anyone could come up with the conclusion that this was anything other than a Vought coverup. As far as Butcher, that could be him...

So two 0-3 teams, now with backup (or worse) QBs? Ratings gold! ... I say before the touchdown.

Are the Giants going to get demolished by the 49ers second string? Not sure that's more on an indictment on hi ow bad these Giants are or hi ow much of a wasted season this is for the 49ers.

Having never seen the UK version, I thought it was fine. I'll have a hard time imagining I'll remember much of anything of it in 30 days, but especially when content is limited, it's worth a watch. First impressions aren't great, with the multiracial lead, 'body positive' past protector, and...

The set dressing heavily implied they were in a jewelry shop, and thus the circular blade was presumably some diamond tipped reinforced tool for gemcutting. When Starlight got hit with the .50, she did bleed slightly, but had no lasting effects. Cindi is clearly Starlight+ level, though the...

Yeah, American history tends to gloss over that the Nazis intentionally killed off Roma (gypsies), and had no qualms with killing off Poles, etc. when they got in the way. Furthermore, while Homelander polls best with midwestern whites, if he's anything, it's a Supe Supremacist. He may not...

See, if this season was dumped in a row, when you hit this episode you would be far more forgiving of the lull before it.

Why is it crazy if he was never the best in a single season, which is what the metric is based on?

Go Raiders! 8-8 for everyone!

So MS now owns both the people making Starfield (Beth) and the people who made the budget Starfield in Outer Worlds (Obsidian). Someone at MS really like space RPGs. That said this seems like a terrible decision for MS, how many Doom 2020s will it take to make that back? Because there's no...

The first trailer showed the "sitcom" they were living in aged in time along with the kids, but this trailer established that whatever is going on is affecting the outside world as well.
