Yea, I have had zero tech issues I have to say. It's been running smooth here. I'm having a tough time with the open world... I enjoy it, but there's no structure and it's messing with my head a bit haha. But I'm enjoying the game. I've done one Gym, one Titan and one Team Star camp. Tried a secon gym but I've lost twice, so I'm training up my type advantage pokemon now.

A proper console WWE Netherrealms Game / Mortal Kombat crossover would be fun.

Interesting... Rutina was always a highlight on True Blood for me. In terms of actors I used to dislike that I've grown to appreciate I have to put Kristin Stewart on that list... I don't particularly think she's one of the greats or anything yet but... her recent work compared to her early adult years is night and day. I really enjoyed her work in Spencer (obviously), and same with Underwater. Charlie's Angels wasn't a great flick by any stretch but I didn't find her as wooden in there as she usually is. Also Andrew Garfield... he is genuinely becoming one of the greats, where I found him to be rather dull or one note early on. But his work on Tick Tick Boom, and Tammy Faye, Under the Banner of Heaven... hell, even his MCU Spiderman appearance was a far cry from his previous turn at it. I worked with him recently and seeing him off screen and interacting with him as Andrew and then watching him work really gave me a new appreciation as to how good he really is.

This... I spent a lot of time during the rey mode wondering why 5 fans are blurred but the others arent... logos, etc. Was a bit distracting.

I managed to beat all the Showcase stuff, except Batista. I can't get the hang of the Comeback for some reason.

I had a weird glitch too... I threw HHH out of the ring, and followed him out. My managers jumped in the ring while we were out. And then the bell rang and I was announced as the winner... No idea what happened.

Also, why do they blur out the faces of the referees, and some ring side staff... and then some fans but not others during the cutscenes?

Rey Mysterio stuff is tough... I mean, he just... is such an easy target against the big guys, I'm getting the shit kicked out of me and going red too early, it makes it near impossible to finish all the requirements. I managed to beat HBK, Samoa Joe, The Miz and Gran Metallik so far... the others... no so much.

To be fair with all the slashes going on right now, I'm sure that's exactly how he looks in the performance centre.

Well, what a shitty way to cap off the year. May she rest in peace. She is a true legend and icon, and the world was a better place for having her in it. I've been a fan for as long as I can remember and I absolutely will continue to be one. She was a genius and a personal comedic inspiration (along with Bea Arthur) and I hope she died proud of all her accomplishments. RIP Betty, truly one of a kind.

I'll be checking your vimeo page out. Congrats on the new feature and short! I've been trying to secure funding for my next project and it's never easy.

That's the thing exactly, was the ending. Clearly they were banking on it. Which... serves the producers right to try and benefit from it, imo. I've worked for too many of those types to feel anything other than annoyed or contempt for what they tried to do.

Re: Mortal Kombat

Gotcha. Thanks

I can't say this one captivated me as much as WandaVision did from the onset. I mean, I'm really no Captain America fan to begin with.. such a whiny character imo. I'm hoping this series helps establish something different going forward.

This I agree with fully... I think That's why this series worked for me, because it allowed me to understand their relationship and how deep it runs. It gave both characters proper depth... I don't need to see how the relationship started really, as most shows just write and establish characters as is (they have a life prior to the show and afterwards). But I agree, in the films, it fell flat. Wanda killing Vision in Infinity Wars never did anything for me because I just had no clue there was a romantic thing going on with them... It didn't resonate much. That's why I think theses series' have the potential to really be something important and potentially game changing to the MCU. If it were me, and I've said it before, I'd go all in with the TV format and save the films for big cross over events like Endgame.

Huh, interesting...I was in the total opposite boat.

Finale thoughts

I disagree with that assessment. I'm not really sure how to respond to the "Superpower lore doesn't sit well with me..." because... it's the MCU. The whole thing is literally about superpowered humans. We've seen them activated via radioactive energy, science experiements gone wrong, science experiements gone right, military experiements, serums, aliens, intergalactic stones and magic.... The fact is that the superhuman lore being accepted as the norm thing has been part of the series since the start, with Captain America during WW2 and even Hulk wasn't hiding from the general public... so it is common knowledge, and has been accepted already.. I'm more than ready to see what the next step in that is. It seems like they're going into a "Thank You for saving the world and also fuck you freaks" story, and that could be very interesting (especially in relation to current events).
