Well I hope the pay on this is stellar.

I haven't read Major Winters' book but the titular book, Band of Brothers, didn't add anything to the show and wasn't all that great. I read it because I wanted more and while a book usually does provide more than an adaptation this time it did not. The show is a 10. The book was like a 4.

Explain once you've finished watching it please sir.

She worked with the CIA on ops such as pushing a militant form of feminism on to black women that attacked black men contributing to the destruction of the black family unit.

It could work if they leaned in to it. Here's John Conner. He's been crushed by the weight of his destiny.

Given this is the Too Many Cooks guy I was expecting a lot. This did not deliver. It's only like 90 minutes which helps a lot but it's just not very good. It's cheaply made, what we'll call the second act drags and it just doesn't do anything all that interesting. Sitting on the couch catching...

Has anyone done a thing that counts as a raid? Does everyone see the bonus loot that people get?

The third book in the series, The Thrice-Bound Fool, comes out October 13th so I wanted to go back over book one. The second was a prequel and I don't think necessary to revisit in preparation for the next in the series. I've recommended several of Christopher Buehlman's books (they are all at...

I forgot Catherine O'Hara was also this year. That's going to add a layer of melancholy to The Nightmare Before Christmas this Fall.

That does fit the story. Spoilers!

The New Adventures of Winnie the Pooh was quite good. I've never forgotten this scene.

I like to pop in on 1950s/1960s science fiction from time to time and this one had caught my eye. I think this is the first full novel by Arthur C. Clarke that I've read and I was not disappointed. Aliens invade and take over the planet but in a bloodless and benevolent coup. The story follows a...

Way better than it had any right to be plus Tim Curry as Captain Hook.

Checking in on nu-Pennywise That's about right.

If you find yourself needing a much too long and detailed documentary on the IT made for TV miniseries from 1990 than here you go This came out in 2021. Tim's noodle was still working just fine even if everything else had failed him.

I knew it was coming but that one sucks real hard.

Find that sexy, do ya?

Hard to go wrong with complex villains.

Basically, yeah. Think of it like introducing a brand new magic system in to an existing game and the new system comes with a bunch of it's own unique ways to break the rules. Magic is already really good in DnD and now here comes Magic Plus.

Psionics are almost always always always completely out of line with the rest of the edition and have been since 1st edition AD&D.

You used to be able to just delete some shit from the zone file on your computer and then skip the patcher. Bam, no door. It probably still works.

Pigs in Space, the Muppet Show parody of Star Trek, is almost fifty years old. As a side note the episode where Mark Hamill guest stars is a lot of fun.

I think he eventually got caught by meth. Unfortunate.

Fay-Mart or bust. Fuck EC.

Lower Decks scooping up a couple of underdeveloped races to run with like the Pakled and Orion was a smart decision and having Star Fleet's first Tamarian was funnier than I ever expected it was going to be.

If something is going to be a little too good having it be the thing you have to double gear while specifically crafting items that no one would otherwise equip isn't the worst thing in the world. At the start of the league I was pretty sure they were OP but after diving in I'm now convinced...

You're a pinnacle boss, Harry. If I was looking to shave some power off of this ascendancy for next league I'd definitely throw that in the bin.

I'd seen the 30 for 30 episode "Judging Jewell" as well as the film that Clint Eastwood produced and wanted to give the book a go when I got a chance. It's dry and probably a bit too long for the material but in doing so we get an exhaustive history of that year's Olympic games, all of the...

Say what you want about Chatterbox but it delivered on its promise.

Looks to be the case so far, yeah. B Plot in episode 3 with the training exercise was fairly entertaining. A Plot with the president and his ex-wife was mostly a waste of airtime.

I had some laughs in episode one but less in episode two. If it gets Keith David some paychecks I'm all for it and I like the half-leprechaun but I'm doubtful this show is going the distance.

Given the nature of this film I've got some questions about those credits. Most of the movie's runtime is spent on vile things happening to people that are either terrible or worthless or both. I was getting heated seeing our pathetic cast of meat puppets be useless scene after scene. I don't...

Looking like maybe Perez Hilton had a psychotic break and streamed it https://xcancel.com/i/status/2084800567440736290#m
