The off topic thread

Liked Suicide Squad.

I thought you were referring to jods post about overhyped hacks.

Hack is a bit harsh. Similar to Pogba really. Sure they're good but they aren't 1/2 what they're talked up to be

Fair enough, I guess we will find out once he fights better boxers. I read an interview with him yesterday and he says he has the IBF Heavyweight title and of course the ultimate goal is to have every belt and unify the division. He said though his immediate future isnt worrying about that, he said his next move is get names on the resume. Defenses.

He mentioned Haye, Chisora, Price, Ortiz, Scott, Pulev, Ustinov, Stiverne, Jennings..

He did of course mention Fury, but that wouldnt be adding names, I think he wants a few of those other names first before a possible Fury fight for most of the belts.

He didnt mention Klitchsko or Wilder though which was interesting. I think a lot rest on the rematch between Fury and Klitchsko.

So, is suicide squad good or bad?

The Age thinks it's terrible so I expect it to be the movie of the year

 

[bok_party]

I've just watched it. I thought it was horrible. Maybe worse than BvS.

Oh god, that's not good because BvS was awful.

 

[Cooldude]

Dayum, that's a shame. Fine it ain't getting my money

Look, it's my opinion of course but the reviews basically hit the nail on the head. The script needed more rewrites for sure, to make it more cohesive, some of the dialogue is clunky, it felt more like the Deadshot and Harley Quinn film than anything although both actors are good in their roles, joker was average in my opinion and I wasn't a fan of Letos version but can appreciate trying to differentiate himself, captain boomerang was great for me, felt the whole enchantress part shouldn't have been used for a first film, the editing is sloppy, some of the music is terrible (Eminems Without Me during one scene ) I could go on.

 

[Cooldude]

I like Em but Without Me is a terrible song

Just finished that Valiant Hearts game. Would strongly recommend it for anyone that hasn't played it.

Wow. Just finished this. Unbelievable art and sound direction. Hit me right in the feels.

 

[jod23]

For those who like a good zombie flick. This looks decent!

Hahaha how much digging did you have to do to find that?

But yeah, incredibly good game! Sadly would never have even thought to play it if it weren't free - glad it was.

Reading How Star Wars Conquered the Universe and it makes me so sad reading what Lucas' original draft for The Phantom Menace was.. so much better.

Wait, it's free? Does that include the PC too, or just on consoles?

I've heard some good things about VH, I think I really need to give this a go too.

It's a book about how the series became the mass-culture phenomenon it did, it's a pretty interesting study in how it transformed from a movie in 1977 to a multi-media franchise. Curious you of all people find that nerdish.

Oh. I thought you were reading star wars movie scripts. I didn't realise the universe meant our universe and not one far,far away, etc.

Oh right, sorry should have clarified. Yeah it's basically a biography of Star Wars itself, which is kind of an odd concept, but reads pretty well, especially as a SW fan, but even from a business point of view it's pretty fascinating reading. Reading about Lucas's dealings with Fox, and all the issues with the production of the films etc.

Was free on PS4 many months ago. Not anymore unfortunately.

Have you played it FT?

That's probably it. I know you mentioned it back then as well, the game that is. I only have a PC, so Steam will have to do me, US$15 too. Meh, it'll be worth it I suspect.

I haven't but I knew a couple that had. It sounds a bit like a Professor Layton game, and with an art-style to match. Haven't really given it a proper attempt to get it due to other things (Currently on a Fire Emblem run at the moment, midway though Revelations and have done a third of Path of Radiance, they weren't kidding about the racism), but I figured I need something for that small gap between when I finish Radiant Dawn and am waiting for Ace Attorney 6.

Yeah, a lot of puzzle and strategy going on around here, that's for sure. I'm also needing to kick up RPG Maker MV again real soon, because I want to practice some custom animations.

How long is the game roughly?

Attack update.

The family is being evicted! And the bloke was there illegally and has already been removed (although I've seen his motor in the car park and pretty sure I've heard him in the flat tonight also). The woman has two months to vacate.

Justice tastes sweet
