Yeap, that was my first thought too.

As much as I love the Han Solo character, this was the movie I never asked for. Watching the trailer still hasn't won me over. A Star Wars heist movie. Can't Disney just stop fucking around with the Star Wars franchise for at least half a decade?

My two loves! If someone held a gun to my head and said choose one, I would have to go with books. They were part of my life before video games came along.

I like it. It's almost like a siren's song. I can see it part of a larger narrative actually. When I write it tends to be overly verbose, so I always admire it when people can condense things and keep it short, as I certainly can't.

I was unsure about the Switch at the time of the announcement, I'll admit it. Still am. For a console that's selling like hotcakes, I couldn't be less interested. Then again Nintendo haven't done anything for me since the N64 (which I still remember fondly). Perhaps I'm just too old. Let's...

*drops chicken and black candles* err... yeah, so it did. Looks like I was on the right track about his offline life putting a lot of stress on him, so something had to give. I'd make the exact same choices to be honest. Nice of him to acknowledge the thread. Not odd at all. I've often...

From what I gathered by my limited interactions with him, his outside life was putting increasing demands on his time. The most likely and realistic scenario was that he had to decide how to spend the limited free time he had. Pursue the stuff in his outside life or pour it into his online...

When they start using insults or threaten violence. That tells me you've got nothing to come back with and have exhausted your mental capacity.

I hear that. I have three of them. When I do get free time I try and sharpen my bass playing skills and write. I'm currently writing a novel, screen-play and comic book all at the same time (different stories mind you). I'm a bit hamstrung on the comic though as I have to rely on my...

Thrice. Every album is an evolution of their style, which ranges from punk, to post-hardcore, to stripped back acoustic folk, and every album is a winner. While the genre of music may change from album to album (not as much as Ulver, who are also excellent) the heartfelt lyrics, musicality and...

Whelp, that means I'm next in line now for throne. I promise I won't forget you guys when I'm at the top.

Man, I thought I was a bit of an outcast but reading this I feel buoyed somewhat. I have three friends I have known since Primary School (I'm 40 BTW) that I see once a year. I kind of miss seeing them as much as I used to, but then again I think if I did see them more they'd end up...

Can we just all agree that Captain America's beard is the breakout superstar of this trailer?

The Punisher is definitely worth watching. Some of the episodes (like the third one) are pretty slow, but if you dig in and ride them out there is a lot to enjoy. Berenthal's portrayal of the mentally damaged, force of nature that is Frank Castle is very true to his comic book counterpart...

I heard about this ages ago and didn't believe it. I see the trailer and I'm still having a hard time believing it. Way to ruin my childhood. So they've tried to ground it in realism by having the animals go supersize, rather than human George, Ralph and Lizzie mutating into massive...
