I think the fundamental issue with this film is that Disney sees Star Wars as a wide multimedia franchise vs. an every so often film event now. They want fans to buy comics, video games, watch streaming series and read novels to put it all together.…

So what we are saying is chicks don't really dig scars?? Keanu Reeves was full of shit in the Replacements!

When did it happen? I didn't notice. Did it happen after Rey healed him?

Oh you have a beautiful yet twisted mind. I love Icrontic.

I've been on the RX590 on a very similar 1080P 144 Hz monitor. At that level I have not had any trouble running anything. That said, it's not a huge upgrade from the R9 Nano, maybe a 30% or so performance boost from there. On your monitor I don't k…

Okay, so the Mrs. comes up with this interesting thought at dinner. We were discussing the film, things I enjoyed, things that kind of bothered me as a fan. She really liked the bit with Han and her thought was, well... Didn't Leia use her force pow…
-
You May have a point there. I am sure Leia would have been featured more prominently if they could.
-
So you 99% agree with me on the rest?
-
Mixed bag for me. If we are being honest with ourselves, who seriously thinks Disney knew what the ending was going to be all along? They went into this trilogy thinking three different filmmakers were each going to take a chapter, which is madness …

Let's just say that The Empire Strikes Back position as the finest film ever made is very, very safe.

I never take it for granted when I see people that can create stuff like that. Skillz Yo! My art skills are limited to little 3D box drawings I learned how to do on the secret city PBS show when I was a little kid.

@Cyclonite I'm mostly tongue in cheek when I talk about the concern for looking cool in the headset. I do think that is a barrier to mass adoption though. There is a reason Nintendo never tried the power glove again. I just don't think many people w…

@Kwitko I think this is going to be a proof of concept test. Half Life 2 was proof of concept for, if we force people can we make them download our delivery service and ultimately control the fate of the PC games market. The episodic content was a p…

One issue with the trickle release method for those that enjoy a good TV binge session is that it's nearly impossible to avoid spoilers in the internet age. Like I'm being super sweet as I usually am and not spoiling and being careful not to spoil a…

https://dorksideoftheforce.com/2018/12/20/star-wars-comic-anakin-father/ My wife actually first alerted me of this idea after watching Revenge of the Sith with her. She was like, oh, so the Emperor is actually Anakin's force Dad, he was implying it …

I am thrilled they are going to trickle out a week at a time. I've tried the binge watching thing. I've done it with Stranger Things, I binged Breaking Bad in a couple weeks well after it was off the air, I'm currently doing American God's. Frankly…

I loved the first episode. It's a space western. One of the most compelling things about Star Wars is that there are so many opportunities to tell original stories. Sometimes they crossover with the more popular lore, but sometimes they don't need …

@primesuspect Brian, I know what a loving kind hearted man you are and by extension how special your kids must be. I'm so sorry for this devastating loss.

I'll be interested in seeing where this goes because I've been torn about what I'm going to do with my basement gameroom. We close on a house in three days, it has a nice little basement area, where we have decided on one of those flip 3 in one air …

I'm sorry, that lightsaber design is clunky AF. That said, I'm banking it's not even real, it's a vision, a preminision, like the warning to Luke in the cave. Rey can't be evil.

https://icrontic.com/discussion/comment/952426#Comment_952426 I'm a passionate guy, and Sony Android Televisions are the devil. Mind you, they design very good looking panels, they really pop with great color on their higher end stuff, but that OS..…

I have a ton of experience with current consumer electronics. Smart TV is always interesting because the platforms and device integration are constantly evolving. If you don't care about strong voice integration, I'd say just get a Roku Premiere an…

It's strange how absence makes the heart grow fonder. As an ideological angry member of Generation X, I hated the 80's and everything it stood for, all that glossy overproduced excess. I thought that decade was mostly a cultural wasteland save a few…

Man, I wish I spoke Minecraft because this seems pretty fantastic whatever it is.

I have been collecting vinyl both new and used pressings. I was listening to R.E.M. at the BBC last night. I also picked up some classic Bowie that was leaving a big gap in my classic rock collection. https://youtu.be/gOlJc9mvHac https://youtu.be/v…

I have a new obsession that I actually share with those newfangled hipster millennials... Vinyl. I am nuts about Vinyl again. I am buying reissues of albums I own on CD left and right. I got a little pro ject elemental turntable, just plug it into t…

Does your connection ever drop on your wired clients or only wireless?

@GnomeQueen That board has a twenty-four, eight, and four pin power connector. The twenty-four and eight are the only necessary ones. The extra four pin is there if you are a mad scientist and you want to deliver as much power headroom to the board …

@Mt_Goat Thank you for your recommendations. I just purchased two Orient Automatics, a Sentinel for casual and a nice Bambino as a dress watch. I'll post them when they come in.

(Quote) @UPSLynx I agree with your sentiment in local consumerism, but I think we are more the exception than the rule. I do think there are some exceptional brands that will expand, and with that expansion you may see more regional production of po…

This has to happen. The craft beer dream has expanded to so many small regional breweries that all do minor variations of the same exact thing. Regional pride can carry the more exceptional brands but so far. Dogfish Head isn't just your run of the …
