    People's notion of how big space normally doesn't do it justice. Space is big. Really big. No bigger. Keep going. Still too small. Still no; keep going. Still not big enough. Nope, still not big enough. Nope. Nope. Still too small. Not even close. Stop trying to stretch. Even Mr. Fantastic can't stretch that far. Nope, keep going. Nope, bigger. Bigger. Still to small. Still too small. Give it up, you're still too small. You already tore your limbs off and you still didn't cover how big space is. It's by sheer luck NUNS is running into these fleets.

    No. There is no issue for SDFM and DYRL. HG owns the distribution rights for those. Period. Any perceived idea that there is a problem with those is fan whining. HG isn't making anything difficult. They are just staying in their lane. DYRL's video distribution rights are just lost to whoever has that, which not even HG has a real answer to.

    Netflix has a weird way of doing things considering no one really understands how they judge viewership. Season 2 may yet happen.

    Ok finished this season. Seeing that it's been 20+ years since the show originally broadcast (meaning it's been almost that long since I saw the anime) I'm going in with only a vague recollection. Overall, it's ok. Not so bad but not that good either. Production values were definitely uneven. Fight sequences were OK. Needs more work. Actors were fine. Story....ok. And yeah, I don't recall Vicious' characterization as it was presented in the Netflix show vs the anime. Nor Julia. Not a pro or con, just a "OK, if that's how you want to roll with those 2 characters...".

    Search for "Bully Maguire No Way Home" on YT. Have fun exploring that rabbit hole.

    So judging by the lack of Tobey and Andrew, they will only show up at the end. Like last 5 minutes of the finale fight, then to leave some parting words of wisdom for Tom.

    And demand a refund.

    I'm leaning toward a "No" on that. Besides a cameo, and the fact she's getting her own show, we probably won't see her. Ashoka in Rebels seem to believe Obi-wan was dead (or very MIA) already.

    Usually media have press screeners 1-2 weeks ahead of release. I tend not to give too much weight to these since they flood the sub-Reddit and Twitter-verse as soon as they walk out of the screener. The problem with "TV" series is the 1st episode is intended to draw you in. What about the rest of the series? Are the filler episodes worth watching or do they drag the show down?

    I don’t even remember how X-Men ‘97 ended. I don’t even remember the show after season 3.

    Has that G-Saviour look likely because it starts off un-armored then gets the armor after the attack. Unlike the animes which start the Gundams off, ready to fight.

    I do wish they spent more time on explaining the importance of Melange to the Dune-universe.

    I think Intel and AMD really need to compete with ARM-based CPUs. We're seeing what ARM can do with Apple's M1-line on . While Alder Lake is a desktop CPU, the laptop market is more lucrative and translating to that kind of power and thermals to a laptop CPU will be a harder sell. Apple appears to have gotten that memo. Scaling up is easy. Scaling down is the hard part.

    Intel Alder Lake CPU review embargo has lifted. Reviews are pretty positive for the new CPUs, but the concerns were on the money. The TLDR, the 12900k retakes the performance lead, but really does suck power and runs hotter. You will definitely need a better cooler (not to mention a new mounting bracket now that the CPU actually is longer) and likely a new PSU if you want to cover your bases. The big-little design, while useful, can only be taken advantage of on Windows 11. Value.....Alder Lake is worth the $$$, if you stick with DDR4. But Alder Lake supports DDR5, so keeping to DDR4 to keep the cost down puts it in a funny position. Otherwise, bravo Intel.

    I'm sure he'll shoot perform layoffs of uncooperative team players.

    For some reason, I hear Pedro Pascal's voice with that Ithorian at the beginning of the trailer. Also in the Mandalorian, I think they established that big-time bounties are slim in the days of the New Republic. Maybe Boba, in his time of self-reflection, has decided to branch out of the bounty business...

    Perhaps a new perspective on life after being fed to the Sarlacc. Why bounty hunt when one can fine more lucrative ways to make a living? Little embezzlement here, little protection business there, control of numerous underworld groups...

    Please tell me they will not be using many slow-motion on all the action shots? The speed of some of those fights feels like they could pick up the pace a little.

    Caught this online. Was it a good point to stop? I guess. It had to pause somewhere. Guess that was as good as any point. I think Dune needs the political exposition. You kind of need it to explain why things play out the way they do. You need it to rear its ass into the story or else it makes hard to understand the "why" of it all. I know they don't like to intect it in to movies like this but Dune needs it. Plots in Dune take centuries to play out. Make it a little longer and throw it in. As for missing Shaddam Corrino IV, Irulan or others...yes they are needed in the story, just not early on/right here. They need to be in Part 2, but leaving them out of Part 1 is fine.

    And this thread has outlived its entertainment value.
