  1. Saw the first episode last night - good cast, they clearly look like they are having lots of fun! Biggest criticism I’m reading about online is that the opening titles were (apparently) AI generated - massively unpopular not allowing artists to do their work. But that aside, loved the scenes with Olivia Coleman (she has national treasure status here in the UK!) and Fury. Problem I have is coming into this on the back of Picard and having a double whammy of Shapeshifter plots. Trust no one, are characters really dead and the resolution of these types of things can be a bit “hit the reset button”. Not my favourite type of plot as you might be able to tell. But I thought we got off to a decent start.
  2. I have neither the TV or Player yet, but plan on changing that in the near future. But I have started to prep! Handy that most releases have the regular BluRay in them. In particular I like the individual releases for ST & SW films - didn’t like the look of the box sets. Photo below and looks nice and neat on the shelf! Have also got the first 2 Reeve Superman films & Tenet which I loved. Not sure what’s next - those are my must haves on all media! Like to upgrade my James Bond set at somepoint as only on DVD at present, but only Craig’s are on 4K. Maybe will look at the Marvel ones as the spines do have the Phase numbers on which is nice! Then I will pick my faves & push on from there, starting with “The Good, The Bad and the Ugly” for sure!
  3. Totally agree - no interest if he is not involved. But he definitely is and is very enthusiastic about it which is promising!
  4. I would really recommend following JMS on Twitter - he is a fascinating person and always has spells of answering many questions from fans. He has strict rules on his account telling people they mustn’t give story ideas for example. His Superman run of writing in the comics was very well received also - haven’t read them myself, but always lots of positive comments on there. As to B5, a reboot has been worked on for a fair while but the sale of the network has delayed this. His chats on Twitter make this a total reimagining as he wouldn’t have any interest in just repeating what’s been done - no excitement for his writing skills he says. A brief history on the reboot is on here: https://babylon5.fandom.com/wiki/Babylon_5_(reboot) A positive reaction to the animation can only help! Trailer looks great fun to me! Those B4 episodes with Zathras were awesome and this has all the feel of that magic! Great that all the surviving cast came back!
  5. Out in mid August and I can’t wait!
  6. Trailer dropped a couple of days back for Part 2 in the series: Final Fantasy VI Rebirth Due out start of 2024, and I can’t wait for it! Be interesting to see what changes they make to this section of the story…

    Diablo IV

    Ah man - hate it when those things come into it. Should be enough that you’ve bought the game or maybe bought a “bonus content” edition, but not then keep charging for stuff. Really enjoying Tears of the Kingdom! So vast and the side quests are interesting, not repetitive which is nice. Not overly familiar with the Diablo series, but had played through half of 3 (Reaper of Souls edition), before getting distracted 10 years back according to my trophy log on the PS! Will have to revisit that! Glad you are enjoying it Odine!
  8. Finally got round to watching it this evening. Interesting concepts with the world down there, always great to see Bill Murray, and Majors created an interesting variant - enjoyed the Loki version a lot when introduced. But. This was an MCU movie and lacked the charm of the Ant-Man films. The whole Kang thing is screwed because of what Majors has done - really hard watching that film in the full knowledge of that. Maybe those that saw it before this was revealed have a different experience of the film? With Loki S.2 in the can, more of that same feeling ahead. But I think that’s all he has filmed so far? Nice ideas, but can’t see me rewatching this.
  9. It sure was! I thought they did a great job moving things on and creating a storyline that looked to the far past with a view for helping their immediate future. Cal has really grown nicely and hope to see him in a live action at some point if poss. The rest of the crew also, especially Merrin who is such a fun character! Working my way though the previously closed off areas to finish all the trophies and then on to the new Zelda!
  10. Ah fab - I also enjoyed the cartoon as a kid (8ish maybe?), and dabbled a bit with the game with my school mates. Glad its getting a thumbs up on here!
  11. Watched the first 5 of season two and really enjoy the variety offered by these different studios. Fascinating animation styles, characters and stories - looking forward to the remaining 4 episodes when I get a chance.
  12. Haven’t had a chance to watch the latest Ant-Man film - any crossover there? Thinking not as Guardians tends to be a bit self contained, but thought I’d check!
  13. Ha ha! Love a puzzle myself, but totally get you! Could do with a mini map on the main view as I am in and out of the map a load. But all good. Challenging at the start but I focused on upgrading the health upgrades on that “tree”, and that’s helped make the bosses much better to handle. 9th Sister took me a good few goes on that first stage in Coruscant! Really looking forward to see where this story finishes!
  14. Nasty - had heard about issues. Feared the worst when I started on my PS5 on Friday and it errored in the opening sequence, so had to repeat about 5 mins of unavoidable walking and chat! But luckily that has been only issue so far. Really enjoying it - interesting story, got to the stage where “someone” has been released from a bacta tank as per the trailer, and loving the fact it’s a continuation and not just forgotten all the abilities and trying to learn it all again.
  15. Mine gets delivered tomorrow and I know the digital buyers have already downloaded it in readiness! It’s had some good reviews! Really looking forward to this, and perfect timing with it being a bank holiday weekend in the UK!
  16. Glad to hear it! For some reason, it still has no release date here in the UK. No idea why!! Really keen to watch it as the original series was such a big thing when I was in my teens!
  17. Well - that was an episode! Lots to unpack there. Plenty of name checks at the start, we have references to Thrawn, and we see his number 2, Captain Pelleaon which was nice! Hux’s dad, played by the actors brother! All before the title sequence! Then we get to the Mando’s. Good interactions between the divisions and a very tasty battle to finish off. Very nice in my opinion.
  18. I’m enjoying this season as well. It would be much better if they had left the Grogu story as it was like a number of us have said. Just doesn’t feel like he fits in with this plot. But am enjoying the progression of the Mandalorian group.
  19. Strong finish to to the show today with the final 2 episodes dropping. Very good second season - looking forward to more.
  20. Trailer dropped this morning - looks a good continuation of the story. 5 years on from Fallen Order, which makes it 10 years from both ROTS & ANH, and in the same sort of time period as the Kenobi TV series. Arrives 17th March 2023. A fine St Patrick’s day for all!
  21. Marvel’s latest series drops today - 9 episode run it would seem and approx 30 mins long. The opener (according to Wikipedia) is called “What if…Captain Carter were the First Avenger?”. Fingers crossed for some good stories over the next few weeks!
  22. I for one am really looking forward to this series dropping on the 9th June - having not featured much in the Infinity War / Endgame films, it will be good to see him back, especially the earlier version of him before he (kind of) started mending his ways! Here's the original trailer: And a new one dropped yesterday as well focusing more on Owen Wilson's Agent Mobius: Just looks great fun and I am a big fan of time travel in my sci-fi series, so I really hope this lives up to expectations!
