I'm sure somewhere in the T&Cs when signing up for a Sony account there's a line in there on page 420 stating any digital content is removable at Sony's discretion or something like that.

Sucks for anyone who bought movies but it's likely going to be a fair next.
They all have them, but not everything in a T&Cs is legal and can't be sued for.

This is extremely worrying. When Ultraviolet died, they made a lot of effort to transfer your movie licenses.

Since then, nobody really has tried anything shitty like this except Walmart, but at least with Walmart, the digital copies were free, so you couldn't really be mad. Even though people traded the codes and still lost out.

This is straight up "fuck you, we got ours"

I hope they get sued or this is gonna become more common everywhere.

I mostly remember the whole movie, but not the character names. It's just an overall boring movie. See it once type of thing.

I'm someone that constantly rewatches stuff, and I've only attempted to rewatch Avatar once in the whole time. I couldn't even get through it again. Meanwhile, I've even seen Titanic like 25 times.

Maybe 2 turns out to be good, and after seeing the 3D trailer with MoM, it does look breathtaking, but otherwise, there's very little excitement behind it.

Great movie tbh.

I'm not ngl, I swear that I had no fucking clue that Guy LaPointe was Johnny Depp. Great disguise. I only realized during the credits even though I knew his daughter was in it.

There's a quasi-sequel called Yoga Hosers focused on the store clerks from Tusk (Kevin Smith and Johnny Depp's daughters). Pretty bad, but stuff like the Kevin Conroy cameo make up for it slightly.

I feel something similar. I want more long term villains that are constantly appearing and building up. I do find the ending third act formula extremely stale at this point.

I thought that was Kang for Phase 4, but there's been barely anything so far. Doom and Magneto being another 2 I'm expecting.

I'm guessing he moved to the BX without realizing it's the hood. That's right by Yankee Stadium, and Manhattan is about a 10-15 block walk from there. Even then, when you get to Manhattan, you're in the Heights.

Regardless, there's tons of actual grocery stores nearby. Even then, the firing was pretty extreme.

There's two that could lead to a multiverse. Eternal inflation and many-worlds theory.

Eternal inflation leads to a multiverse of infinite universes, but they're unrelated.

I'd say that NYC is better in almost every way compared to Boston. Boston is a really fun, but shitty city, especially the messy layout and the surrounding suburbs. Plus, parking is way worst there than NYC since they reserve parking for residents. So that itself may be a positive or negative.

Yes, I see how in theory even the most improbable event could happen over infinite time, but I certainly don't see where it has to. We're talking about something so improbable that it would only happen ONCE in ALL of infinity. Come on now. Something could just as easily slip through the cracks. And never happen.
Please stop trolling with shit you keep pulling out your ass to somehow negate something so simple. You clearly have a huge misunderstanding of not only infinity, but probabilities.

Proof?
The probability of at least one heads in a coin flip of a single coin is .50.

.75 for 2 flips.
.875 for 3 flips
.9375 for 4 flips
.96875 for 5 flips
.984375 for 6 flips

You see where that's going? Apply it to any other number over infinity.

If something is possible, it might still never happen with infinite time.

I'm glad to clarify and bring it back to that point.

Because to be frank, it's much more like the 5 marble is floating out there in the void and just never comes forward, even in infinite time
Nope, as I said, with infinite time and non-zero probability, it will happen. This is math. With infinite time, all non-zero probabilities eventually go to 1, despite how close to zero the probability is.

Okay

You might be thinking of a jar with a bunch of tiny marbles in it. That will hit all marbles on an infinite timeline.

But why do you assume the universe isn't closer to my model? Where the bottom marbles you see don't have to surface
Your "model" is kind of irrelevant as I keep repeating the same principle regardless of model.

If something is simply not possible, it will never happen. Not even with infinite time.

Calm down.

let's say you created a puzzle using a tube and a handful of marbles with numbers on them to simulate the universe. if you pack the marbles tightly enough, the ones on the bottom will not be able to shift enough to switch places with the ones on top. But, if you shake it, they kinda move around and one shows the number on its face through a hole in the tube. The marbles are also too big to fit through the hole, but you can see a marble or two through it. You shake it and see the 4, the 2, the 3... But not the 5. Even though there is a 5 in there , it's stuck at the bottom and weighed down by the marbles and too big to be brought to the top. The possibility that the 5 could be at the top is still there. If you rearranged the marbles. It isn't like if you had a marble outside the tube and expect it to come up when you shake it. So on an infinite timeline, while there is a 5 in there, and it could show up at the top and that wouldn't be totally illogical, it is weighed down by other marbles and you only ever see a 4 or a 2 or a 3

But the outsider doesn't know this, and they keep betting that the 5 has to show up on an infinite timeline

But we all agree the 8 (which is not inside the tube) will never appear at the top of the tube
If it has a non-zero probability, it will eventually happen with infinite time, no matter how impossible it might seem.

If you say never, then it has a zero probability, which means it will never happen.

Again, I don't think you understand what infinity is, especially wrt to probabilities.

Yes, that's the nature of infinite time. It goes on forever. Even something 10^100^100^100^100^100 years is still the "first second" of eternity.

Windu made it pretty clear the Sith are too dangerous to be left alive and Obi Wan went to Mustafar to kill Anakin.

Add in a decade of knowing of the horrors of Vader on the galaxy and it seems extremely dumb tbh. How many countless people die in the next 15 or so years because Vader is left alive?

Vader being forced to escape would have made more sense.

I am hearing from others, in-person
This is one of things I'm facing with people in person. The good thing about the MCU was that, especially in Phase 3, everybody was kind of watching it and trying to keep up. The Infinity Stones and Thanos kept people tuned.

Interest has greatly dropped off and I find myself the only one really following anymore. No Way Home, WandaVision and Loki were the biggest things in the past 2 years, but most of the people I know are kind of "blah" about watching the MCU unless it's major nowadays. Even MoM got barely any interest.

I'm sure that's happening all over the place. Not saying it's not still insanely popular, but I definitely see the effects of burnout happening from the over-saturation.

I'm still enjoying Ms. Marvel, but I get what you're saying.

Loved the episode. That was a great fight and Kenobi destroyed Vader.

Though the Owen/Reva stuff felt so tacked on and unnecessary lol. Though it made sense in that every lightsaber battle in the franchise is interlaced with a secondary conflict going on.

Kenobi leaving Vader alive seems like way too big of a risk. Like, this ain't some normal bad guy. He's a genocidal maniac, and is already mad about being left for dead once. Now he's left embarrassed too.
