  1. There's been more and more rumblings about SE remastering or remaking some of its older titles (beyond what they've already released or announced). Outside of DQ12, that's where my real interest lies with their games.
  2. What I mean is this looks to be exactly the sort of thing he'd be involved in. That he just isn't is going to need a solid reason.
  3. It would have been a much better movie without Jared Leto in it. He ruins every scene he's in, which is too many.
  4. Crystal Skull has the same problems the Prequels do: bad dialog and poor performances. We could probably get past the story issues if those two weren't so terrible. Dial of Destiny doesn't really have any real dialog or performance issues, so it's much easier for me to get past whatever issues I may have with the story.
  5. Your need to be so obnoxiously anti-Disney is tiring and doesn't really contribute anything to this discussion. And the videos you share are hot garbage. You won't see the movie, so just move on. And stop watching all of those caustic videos on YouTube. You'll be happier for it in the long run.
  6. Given the amount of money their movies have made, that's not a statement grounded in reality at all. Can we not turn this thread into a Disney-bashing discussion? I'd like to hear what people thought of the actual movie.
  7. I've been checking out more recent reviews this morning, and there's definitely a feeling (discussion) that the Cannes crowd sunk the rating score. It's gone up over 10 points with the recent non-Cannes reviews.
  8. I legitimately don't understand how it's only 67% on RT. I've been poking around some of the negative reviews and man, did they even see the same movie I did?
  9. Just got back from seeing it. Legitimately a good movie. Not a legacy sequel, not a recycling of Indiana Jones's greatest hits. More in line with Raiders in that it isn't as slapsticky as the other movies are. A tad long, maybe. Has some real emotion and a wonderful ending. Where would I rank it? Not sure, but my stepmother loved it and said it was her new favorite Indy movie.
  10. A reviewer I trust really enjoyed it and called it the 4th-best Indiana Jones movie and didn't mean that as shade. But, whatever the case, I already have my tickets.
  11. And here's the gameplay trailer. Haven't gotten to watch yet as I'm in a meeting.
  12. No gameplay + it's an open world Ubisoft game, so color me skeptical. But, it's Star Wars, so I'll be keeping an eye on it.
  13. This is 100% where I am at with Macross, but I try not to complain too much about it anymore.
  14. I checked out more of the English dub. Yeah, not a fan. It's not terrible, but it's missing some of the attitude and emotion I am used to with the original. Also, as Hikuro pointed out, they've taken some odd liberties with the script that I don't think work as well as the original.
  15. As a follow up to the above, the new release doesn't have the Japanese 5.1 audio that was newly recorded a decade or so ago for the blu release in Japan. Which I'm actually ok with, as I preferred the original audio. The performances were just not quite the same in the new recording, which made it feel off to me.
  16. The dub sounds non-offensive to my ears. I would always watch with original audio, but the voice cast looks to be pretty decent for the dub. Can confirm the Chariots of Fire-esque music is missing from all audio tracks. However, it has all of the original science lessons (not sure on the newer ones), different matting options for the episodes done widescreen, and some other bonus content. Lastly, not sure on picture quality. I'm not overly impressed with it, but that may be due to the original source. Would need someone with the Japanese blu to compare.
  17. They could easily have cut 40 minutes out of this movie. Maybe more. I liked the ending, but man, I was bored for long stretches of this movie.
  18. Got the shipment notification from Amazon. Will be here tomorrow. Hopefully this release doesn't suck. 😊
