Where's Hitmonchan?

I agree with a lot of these criticism and even laughed at the absurdity of it all when viewed in that light. Still enjoyed the series immensely though. That's star wars for you I guess.

My gut reaction was that the prior episode outshined the finale, but extended action scenes like this are tricky and they did it as well as could be expected. Kind of puts a bow on the whole Bobba Fett story for the moment, which, let's be honest, not many even cared about after the last two episodes of the Mandalorian.

I think Grogu really showed Mando that he was capable of assisting rather than just be someone in need of defending. It will probably take Mando a while to acknowledge that, but I look forward to seeing the transition of them working more as a team.

I also cannot wait for this Obi-Wan series. Sad there won't be a Mando cameo in it, haha, but it will provide some great lore as to what Obi Wan was up to between Revenge of the Sith and A New Hope.

yes

where's hitmonchan?

honestly he'll be in the next episode a little probably and he may not be in Mando season 3 at all or perhaps for just a very short scene. CGI Luke is perfect for a role like that.

Also, and everyone is entitled to their opinion so I'm not trying to start anything, but I feel like all this CGI Luke hate is a bit nitpicky.

What did I just watch? This is Star Wars television at its finest. I was laughing and screaming and hollering and hooting. It's like Inception all of a sudden. A show within a show within a show. Call it fan service, call it what you want, I don't care. It honestly felt like I was watching a Star Wars movie at times.

The ultimatum took me by surprise, but it does make total sense. They really want to try to cut out that attachment. But what a perfect and logical way to get them back together. Ironically, if Grogu chooses Mando, they both will have been kicked out of their clans. What a perfect pair that'd be.Can that armor fit him though? Seemed like it might be a tight fit to me!

A team full of commanders? How does that work? What is the chain of command there?

I honestly don't like the name. Sounds more like an arena football team name. The Hogs or something along those lines would have been better.

I'm surprisingly pleased with this superbowl matchup.

Bengals are one of 12 teams that have never won a super bowl. So they get a chance to do so.

Rams have one superbowl victory as a franchise but that was in St. Louis. Never won one while in Los Angeles so that would be a first for their city (and only second time an NFL franchise has won a super bowl in two different cities).

So one way or another, in a couple weeks one city will be celebrating their franchise's super bowl victory for the first time.

all it did was make me wish we got Mando season 3 instead

also maybe that beskar that Mando had forged will save Grogu from Kylo Ren when the time comes

Oh, good call!

As a Packer fan, it's hard reflecting on the last 30 years. Back to back hall of fame quarterbacks basically all my life. Don't get me wrong, it's been fun rooting for a winning team all my life that makes the playoffs basically every year without fail. But only 2 superbowls wins out of it is the big letdown of it all.

Packers have made 9 NFC championship games in the last 30 years. That's actually not bad at all. Something you'd maybe expect from a Favre-Rodgers combo. They've only won 3 of those games though, and then went 2-1 in the superbowls. And it's been a decade+ since the last super bowl appearance. The last decade of continuous postseason heartbreak has sucked mightily to say the least. Rodgers had a golden opportunity to lead a dynasty, but it never materialized.

Now my concern is for the first time, our bountiful Hall of Fame QB tradition may be coming to an end. If Rodgers and Adams leave, our passing offense will be nothing. Granted, the NFC North is in a bad place overall right now. The 3 other teams all have their own issues. But it's definitely sobering knowing that this could be the end of a legacy of riches for the Packers, that did everything except win championships.

Packers continue to be a huge playoff disappointment. My goodness. At least we have the regular season.

Special teams was the reason this year. How do you have bad special teams the whole season? How do you not fix that?

i enjoy the split storyline. Good show so far.

with the way theaters have that recliner seating these days, there's already built-in separation between you and other people. The rows ahead of you and behind you especially. If you're theater still has that old fashioned packed in seating, then that's a bit of a different story then.

I enjoyed this movie. wish my theater was a bit more rowdy like some of yours were. I wanted to applaud when Toby appeared. I also was often the only one laughing at many of the jokes. The person I came with even shushed me. It was like a dang museum in that theater.

I did not participate in the contest much due to me not being very knowledgeable of FF music as a whole, but I love FFX and I know this song and love it as well. So great winner!

Objectively, the Lion King soundtrack is the best selling animated movie soundtrack of all time, so the answer is The Lion King.

Mulan did not have as many songs as the other movies, but all of them were home runs for me.

I'd have to give the nod to Aladdin probably though.

If these results on a board whose average age is probably over 30 do not raise an alarm, I don't know what to say...

What alarm? Is getting married a requirement for a happy life?

I think in most situations I would trust them.

If I see them just out in public not actively engaging in anything (in line in a fast food restaurant, etc.), I wouldn't trust them any less than anyone else in line. Honestly, I would probably trust them more.

If I required their services for something (got in car accident, something got stolen from my home, etc.), I would trust them.

If I were on the engaged side (pulled over for speeding, arrested for some reason), I would probably trust them less lol.

that explains why my dealer sent me an email offering me 1/3 of what I paid for my new car...wait for it....7 1/2 years ago. I was like, they want that much for my 2014 vehicle? Of course, like others have said, there's no point in selling it for that price though as I would need to find something else and pay the price for it!

The scary thing is there's really nothing to prevent it. Also affecting certain iCloud services. I would suggest Googling it for more info on the exploit. This just became known on thursday/friday, and companies are scrambling to patch it.

Not sure if you guys have seen this in the news, but there has been a serious exploit discovered in Java that makes it very easy for people to remote access your computer and plant malware. This Java log is run in tons of online servers such as Minecraft and Steam. Make sure to download any patches as soon as they are released.

No

It feels weird not having to prep for the next round today. It became a routine after a while!

Exactly, I know families who are eligible for basically free healthcare and they barely ever have to pay anything. Doctor visits, surgeries, prescriptions. It's crazy good coverage. And if you are poor enough, you are eligible for it.

As for everyone else, and while I agree with the comment about how it shouldnt be tied to work, the fact is that nonetheless, there are a lot of workers who get decent or even what one might consider "good" or "great" healthcare coverage through work.

Thanks to places like reddit and such, Europeans/Canadians/nonAmericans are actually starting to believe that nobody here has health insurance and we are all left to fend for ourselves with thousands of dollars of debt looming if anything goes wrong or if we want to have a baby or whatever. Yes...some people do face this problem. It definitely happens here. But it's not every person. We in America know that obviously, but the narrative has been exaggerated so much, that it's leading to some crazy misconceptions from nonAmericans.
