  1. I was tempted because I really liked the changes they described, but I really did not want to drop the money on what is basically more Zombicide. But, I figure a few easy tweaks on Zombicide can see most of the new content added and improving the game greatly. Also, someone with both needs to build a campaign where Survivors in Zombicide eventually go back in time to fight the undead hordes in Black Plague... This is mandatory.... do it.
  2. Woot! Happy New Year! Everyone stay safe tonight!!!
  3. Spectre: Daniel Craig's Bond/10: I enjoyed the movie for the same reasons I enjoyed his others, and disliked it for the same reasons I disliked his others (well the last one was the worst, leave that out of the mix). All in all if you like his bond, you'll like this one.
  4. I don't know... can we just agree that that were both bad for different reasons?
  5. My PC runs the game fine (except extended sessions sometimes get laggy) but I found the app to cause more lag, I also found it a bit annoying to have to look to another device for stuff. Neat idea, but I am not a fan (nor is my PC).
  6. Was thinking I would get it just for that. Ep 1's book made way more sense than the movie. Guess you just confirmed I should do it.
  7. That was kinda silly. "We cant figure out where this bit of galaxy is!" - okay, big galaxy, many uncharted/unknown systems... I get it! "Hey, plug it into this other map! Oh there it is!" ... um... did you not try plugging that into a galactic map before?
  8. Most of the Website had not been updated since last year when I looked at it... so...
  9. Hey! Take your expanded universe garbage and go home!!!!
  10. Actually it was just stuff they made up in filming... really trying to reason it out is ridiculous. ...also proving Mekhet's point. Honestly I'd like movies physics to make some sense, but I don't tend to hang my enjoyment on the details of it.
  11. Pretty sure she was a set up for more role. I hear a lot of "why did she drop the shields so easy". I wonder if she also has doubts or is some how an agent? Just speculation... probably not.
  12. I gave up on that trash so long ago. I mean yes, there were good books, good stories and good ideas, but by the time there were around 20 books it was already getting diluted with crap. I can't imagine how terrible it became more recently. Imagine trying to fit a new movie into that... ick. Thank god for it getting tossed.
  13. Happy whatevers and stuff! Be alive and well at the end of it!
  14. I have seen a few of these things... mostly silly questions and obvious "left it for the next movie" (or just leaving it for fans to speculate and build hype) I keep noticing bits of expanded universe in many bits of speculation... I think some people are having trouble separating the two BB-8: Well, if you understand the physics behind how BB-8 works (remember, that is a working droid prop) it is simple to change the counter weight to "lean" against the higher step allowing him to move down stairs. As for up the stairs... grappling hooks... we saw him use them. Rey: I see some validity to the Mary-Sue comments but the thing is that Finn and Poe are also Mary-Sue's... as are JJ's Star Trek crew... I agree it is crap writing, and a lot of it could be fixed by omitting or altering dialog like "He's the Best pilot EVAR!!!!" It has nothing to do with feminism and the fact that you point the finger there is sad. As to the hug... maybe Leia knows or suspects something that you do not? Also maybe it was just a "Some one you loved just died and you needed a hug" type thing? I suspect either works. Snoke would be the worst name ever.... if it weren't for Jar Jar Binks, Sy Snoodles and Boba Fett (and more) Seriously, what is with dumb names and Star Wars? And remember, at least it wasn't Episode 1...
  15. Then there is the Han Solo Anthology film that is coming up...
  16. I pretty much agree on all points. Especially the over-critical bit. I am not too bothered by the lack of answers as I think we'll get some in the future, but having a bit more of the last 40 years referenced would have been nice.
  17. My loose theory is that Snoke is Palpatine. His messed up face perhaps caused by the force lighting backlash and fall. Not sure how they'd explain his survival, but I am not sure there is a better explanation for a powerful darkside master that turned Ren against his family. Overall I felt despite a pile of plot holes and unanswered questions the film was pretty solid. I was really hoping they didnt blow the whole planet... but they did...
  18. They don't do a lot of communication during Black Friday and Gencon shipping times. I have never had anything on back order, but updates, notifications and such are very sparse as the whole team and more are working to get a ton of stuff out the door. One time I did not get my shipping notice until the package arrived. Anyway, if there turns out to be a problem, Wyrd Customer service will make it right.
  19. Funny, that's what Disney said to Fox...
  20. Shut up you!!!! I thought Doomsday was a trash villain anyway. Guy randomly crashes into earth, starts breaking stuff, superman comes in to fight him, and they kill each other with super punches... Wee! Was Superman's one weakness involved? No, just punches. Did doomsday have some cool plot? No he just showed up to make the Superman dies story happen and drive sales. I have no clue what crap they made up after the fact to explain doomsday, but his appearance and plot line were trash. Maybe as a Zod Clone he'll bother to make some sense... Still looks stupid though...
  21. How many times have you read an alternate universe/timeline or "what if" title? How often in comics to stories get changed? All the time. Why is it so hard to view the movies as an alternate story line? If they were exactly the same then what would be the point?
  22. Nice, I tried finding that command but had no luck. Thanks.
  23. This trailer actually got me interested in the movie, previously I was going to leave it on the shelf. But as some one said above... Doomsday looks awful. Also, I am not sure on the Lex Luther casting choice... but I'll give him a chance.
