Firaga

If I have to hear about Trump's dumb tweet one more time, I'm going to piss in someone's covfefe.

Definetly not in any way that pertains to story because there should be no excuse to have the base game not have the completed narrative that we've been waiting on for the past 10+ years. The only exception I could think of would be putting in extra "episodes" for worlds like in KH2 because at least then, they would be treated more as optional fluff rather than integral story plot purposefully being left out. As for anything else: extra costumes, Keyblades, music tracks, etc. is completely fine in my book, but I'd rather they be sold in separate packs rather than go a Season Pass route even though it's becoming a very definite standard for paid DLC because it could bring up a whole lot of other potential issues that I don't even want to go into right now.

Late night post gooooo! So just like with Strong World, I binged watched the filler arc leading up to Film Z and then watched the film itself, and here's what I thought:

I'd like to change my name to just "Firaga". RIP the Sensei Era 2013-2017. I'll check back in a week to confirm.

I'd say Catwoman but the last time that happened, we got the Halle Berry movie... and yeah, not sure I want another one of those. My real choice is She-Hulk because I think it would satisfy a lot of people: fans of the comic, fans of the character from the old Hulk cartoon, people who want more super heroine based films, people who like seeing hot green chicks smash stuff, etc.

Anyways, since I'm here, might as well comment on the last two episodes too.

Don't ruin it, it's fine the way it is.

Well, if you really want to know, I did write a review on it. It's probably just sitting there somewhere in the ocean of Media related topics, sort of just keeping to itself. Like most of my review threads end up going. So uh, if you want to check that, go ahead, I'm trying to do a plug or anything right now but... there you go.

How obviously contrived. ... I-I still want to see it though.

Hey now, that's not fair, Kung Fu Panda doesn't deserve to be put in that category. That series has more heart and soul than some Disney films.

*before 3:00* Oh hey, John Wick's playing on Syfy, I should check it out later. *Now* ... Oh... dangit.

I saw Over The Hedge in theaters. I actually played the video game too for some reason... it was kind of fun. As for the film itself, I wouldn't say it's underrated. From what I read, fans of the comic strip it was based on seem to tolerate it and although it has some nods to satire on American consumerism, at the end of the day it's just another silly family film made to entertain kids. Not that being that is a bad thing, but still.

That doesn't really fit in with his character though, even in the current stance of things.

Yeah, I have to ask how Civil War counts as a Spider-Man movie when, even though I still haven't seen it, I already know he's only in it for the third act. Thank you, modern film marketing. Anyways: The Amazing Spider Man. Yeah, unpopular opinion, but everybody knows by now how much I don't like the Raimi films, specifically 2 and 3. The first Spider-Man film from 2002 still holds up to a certain extent IMO but the first Amazing Spider-Man, despite the complications that would come to the series both production wise and in the sequel, is a solid Spider-Man film that nails the aspects of the character in the best ways possible.

He wasn't depressed, but joining back together with Roxas clearly had some influence on him for a large portion of the game.

Not trying to be mean, but slow your roll there friend. Official sources are king.

Along with reuniting with Xion and Lea, that's certainly what he wants even if he continues to deny it to Sora. And we all know Sora's not going to just let him be depressed over it.

Oh boy, another review! It's been so long since I've had the drive to do one of these. Well, except Donkey Kong Country of course because I obviously meant every word of that. For realsies. Anyways: I'm a huge fan of Tekken, if I haven't made that clear before, and I'm all abuzz with anticipation now that Tekken 7 is coming out soon. Still working on getting that PS4 though. Because of that, I went back across Tekken content gone past and I decided to check out this little gem right here. I hadn't seen it beforehand and had only heard about it in passing and saw images of it online, so I was fairly optimistic... boy, was that wasted effort. Much like this movie as well. I honestly don't know what I was thinking at the time. Much like other video game series, adapting Tekken from the consoles to the big screen has always resulted in mixed results. A total of four films have been released, and I had already seen two others beforehand, the first being the 2009 live action film and the 2011 "Blood Vengeance" tie-in to the second Tag game, and both were pretty much stinkers too (although the latter is still probably the best of the bunch by not by much). The only film that I haven't seen being the sequel to that live action one, but uh, not breaking my neck over seeing that. Back to this film: this was released in 1997 right before the release of Tekken 3 in order to promote the game, and possibly to cash in the success of the Street Fighter II movie released earlier under the simple name "TEKKEN" (later "Tekken: The Motion Picture for its English dub release by ADV and spoiler warning, the dub is cheesy and lame so I'm not going to go into detail about it. Imagine that, a 90s anime english dub being bad, what are the odds). It adapts the main story of the first game, but also shoves in a bunch of elements from the second game haphazardly. For those who don't know, the basic story of the first Tekken game centers around the King of Iron Fist Tournament sponsored by the Mishima Zaibatsu where fighters compete in matches for a chance to defeat the Zaibatsu's leader Heihachi Mishima and earn a large sum of prize money. One of these fighters is Heihachi's son Kazuya who aims to take revenge on Heihachi for throwing him off a cliff at the age of give in order to test his strength. Sounds like it has potential to be a kickass thrill ride, right? Well sorry, but you get this instead. Okay, without further ado: FIGHT!

Musings on the latest episode since I finally got to it:

It's possible that Xehanort already got a hold of him. After all, since this version of himself would still carry Terra's essence within, it would be a good idea to keep him under lock or key, or alternatively, keep him as a pawn. He does still have access to this Keyblade as well as the Guardian after all, so he's not defenseless. There's others thing to factor in as well including whether or not he's already been made into one of the unknown cloaks or if the Lingering Will aspect of that scenario is canon or not, but either way, I think it's plausible that Terranort's doing more than just hiding around, although if he is, I would imagine he's already actively plotting against the True Organization. Well, having 13 versions of the same character interact with each other would itself be considered a paradox if we're thinking linearly, but since none of them immediately cause the universe to explode when in proximity with each other, then this is clearly multiverse theory time travel. So no, that's irrelevant.

YAAAAAS Old memes don't die, they just adapt with the times.

Rayman, even though I haven't play too many of the games. Speaking of which: I've played Raving Rabbits too... I'm not proud of it, but I have... and I regret it every day.

There's a lot of different scenes I could point to, but just to be different, I'll pick one from a very recent game: This is not just a very special moment for both Sora and Roxas, but it hits on a lot of very well established emotional beats. In my opinion, every element of this scene, from the points they both make to the facial expressions and especially the voice acting, English or Japanese, is spectacular, and I think that anybody who appreciates Roxas as a character as well as the complexities of Sora's fate will agree.

Definetly not the hope of the universe, by any stretch.
