    They Have Risen: ‘Godzilla x Kong’ Conquers Easter Box Office With $80M Opening; Legendary Monsterverse Franchise Crosses $2 Billion – Sunday AM Box Office (Deadline.com) 🤷‍♂️

    It is a trailer. A cherry-picked glimpse of what's to come. Hence why I'm moving into the "wait-&-see" column. How about 200? 400? 500? Stop using such small numbers.

    So if it's neither and both, it will be, as the kids would say these days, mid.

    Like I said, expect more streaming licensing from studios to bolster their catalogs. All these mergers from the past few years have hurt the bottom line and they need to recoup the costs (also, corporate debt isn't the same as average consumer debt).

    Maybe review bombing? Maybe not. Who knows. Could be the court of public opinion. 🤷‍♂️ Could be, like me, many folks are not warming up to this show as it has been presented. 🤷‍♂️ More data is required.

    A talking-head Youtuber. Noteworthy opinion? That depends on you. Like all talking heads, they've all got an opinion.

    This lines up with the rumblings I've hard since the end of last year. Streaming services are looking at licensing shows to fill their catalogs as in-house content has been such a money drain for the past couple of years that they want to scale back in-house produced content to licensing content, which is cheaper. Look at Doctor Who on D+. BBC is producing the show but the Mouse bought the streaming rights for the show. I've heard similar things from WB-D looking to boost their own anime catalog by obtaining streaming rights of some upcoming shows. They're still making their own shows, but until profitability comes up, those in-house productions will be fewer and farther apart while licensed shows will be on the uptick. Netflix has been upping the number of K-dramas on the service. What's the other genre which has yet to see wider audience? Anime.

    Maybe it’s me, but as more time passes since the trailer’s debut, I’m drifting into “wait & see”-territory with this show. Maybe it’s Lucasfilm’s current track record. But as of now, I’m not sold on this show.

    Given the tendency of disappearing media off streaming media network lately, perhaps the public will realize having physical media is not as bad as it seems? 😒

    Yup. Watch his BF2042 sniping clips. That grandpa really understand the bullet drop mechanics in that game.

    Possibly. Depends how they play out all the battles this season.

    House of the Dragon's channel combined the Green and Black trailers. HBO Max's channel split the trailer into "Green"and the "Black" trailers.

    No one said this Dark Side-user was, specifically, a Sith.

    I'd argue that the notoriety of the 100th's sorties post-1944 were not as reputation-earning as they were from 1943-1944.

    So Disney is now muscling in on Sony's near streaming anime monopoly. M'kay. Are they going to start working on breaking up Netflix's K-drama near-monopoly? I'm not entirely sold on these other shows Disney is bringing in outside of Macross.

    My understanding of the 100th's service record is that D-Day was more like a footnote in their record compared to their other sorties so it won't be surprising that it was briefly touched in the series.

    Let's just close this conversation before it gets any more personal. No harm, no foul.

    I really need to sit down and watch this along with Masters of the Air. 😔

    Don't watch the 2000-miniseries for the visuals. Nor the costumes. Same with Children of Dune (2003). It got slightly better with Children of Dune. But the story-element for both miniseries was on point. I got that feeling from Part 1. I didn't get the same impact from watching Part 1 about Spice from Villeneuve's version that I got from Lynch's version nor the miniseries (maybe less so Lynch's version, but it still felt important). Just from watching Part 1, I felt Villeneuve didn't explain the shear importance of Spice in Dune. I believe you meant to say, Paul has the galaxy by the cahones by controlling Spice production. Regarding the ending...

    Haven't seen it but reading around...

    You know, just to make some people give up on this idea of seeing more Hikaru/Misa/Minmay, I want to see Hikaru die on screen the most gruesome way possible. Hikaru just starts his sortie only to meet a big Zentradi who crushes the cockpit causing the monitors to crush his body causing blood to splatter everywhere in the cockpit. Then that big Zentradi shoots the VF to pieces causing it to blow up with a blood-filled helmet fly pass. There. No more Hikaru. Happy now? 😁

    Battlefront 2 Classic or Battlefront 2 (2017)?

    I'm not doubting the benefits of e-ink devices, but the versatility and multi-application use of LCD-devices simply outweigh the benefits of e-ink devices, diminishing the prevalence of e-ink devices.
