Lurker > ZenOfThunder

watching it right now, it's alright

data looks like shit there is no way to make brent spiner look young again

there's also no way to make the 16 producers in the opening credits look good

but it was alright

Here is my top 56 (that's all I saw in 2019) List:

https://letterboxd.com/zenofthunder/list/zens-2019-watch-list/

this is a lowkey way of asking people to follow me on Letterboxd

Fun facts about 2019:

-Marriage Story is the first and only movie to make ZenOfThunder cry. I've teared up before but Marriage Story had me outright bawling for like 15 minutes.
-Parasite is the first foreign picture to be my #1 of the year
-This is the first time an Adam Sandler movie has been in my top 10, or even top 25, or even top 50.
-Godzilla kicks fucking ass

i guess these aren't really that fun but they're facts

but in a perfect world Parasite (Deservedly) wins

I didn't want to put two Zero Escape games in there even though I'm pretty sure that's gonna happen

for right now i'll leave it at just VLR but it could realistically be either

VVVVVV is a good one, maybe Shantae too, but I don't know if anyone is talking about Until Dawn anymore

Got the Discord to do a pass over it first.

Partially based on:

Nomination Tally Topic: https://gamefaqs.gamespot.com/boards/8-gamefaqs-contests/78321056

Metalmind's Mock Bracket: https://gamefaqs.gamespot.com/boards/8-gamefaqs-contests/78318602

and staring at wikipedia and metacritic<

I forgot to repost my noms, I might be trading some for Mania so I'm going to hold back for now

thanks so much to everyone supporting Mania so far though!!

something I wanted to talk about for a while is the recent-ish comic Star Trek TNG: Mirror Broken which is a mini series based in the Mirror universe starring the TNG cast (if you couldn't figure that out by the title)



i really like that all the characters get these overly edgy redesigns (Data gets an evil robot eye later on) but Barclay is still just Barclay because there is literally no way to make him look cool

I guess Crusher also looks pretty bland in the mirror universe but there's not many ways to make an evil doctor

---

(|| ' ' ||) drooling while eating
. /|_|\

I love Barclay, but that's because (as previously stated) I absolutely adore bad Trek. The worst episodes (Like "The Game") are my favorites. Watching them bring back Barclay time and time again in TNG and keeping him as this kind of awkward creepo with really out-there plotlines revolving around him is super enjoyable for me and probably only me.

if you ever need to get something from a mule camp just go in with no cargo (you can still carry weapons)

they literally will not bother you because you have nothing they want

if you pick something up they'll get pissed tho

i want to say that the reverence for Fallout NV would carry it through but I think 4 and 76 have hurt the franchise's reputation on top of that fanbase not necessarily hanging out here anymore

i think xenoblade takes it?

Yeah just because it's in the database doesn't mean Allen would consider it and I think most people would think it's a risk to nom it and avoid doing so

Universal Japan has a lot more interactivity with their attractions like how their Resident Evil attraction during Halloween Horror Nights actually has lightguns

It might also be a takeoff on Disney's Magic Band+ thing, maybe a soft test before expanding it?

I know there's concept art of Epic Universe floating around and some people claim to see a DK ride in it (I don't) but I honestly can't imagine a Nintendo park WITHOUT a DK minecart coaster. I didn't even hear there was a Yoshi ride but I think Mario Kart has always been a thing and that's another one I can't imagine them not doing.

sorry punny :(

I think they moved the Nintendo section of Universal Florida to Epic Universe as a way to promote it when it opens, although the rumors are constantly changing as to where it will be. At one point there was a rumor that Nintendo will be spread amongst all three parks like Harry Potter so that people visiting just for Nintendo will be forced to pay for the three park pass.

Honestly nobody has any idea what the hell Nintendo World is gonna be at this point but almost all the leaks show it will be almost entirely Mario themed with MAYBE some Zelda and a Pokemon Center. This video kinda confirms that by going so heavy on the Mario. You'd think they'd at least try including Kirby or a Star Fox ride or something.
