  1. With the exception of Jar Jar Binks and the medichlorians, I've never really got the hate for Phantom Menace. I have really fond memories of the film due to it being the first one I saw in the cinema and perhaps partly down to the PS1 game (which I loved) but I just remember really enjoying it and I still do now. Obviously it's not the best and doesn't compare to the original trilogy but I think the acting is perfectly acceptable, the story makes sense to me; the trade blockade is all put in place to garner sympathy for Naboo and then lead Palpatine into manipulating the young Queen into calling for Valorum to be ejected so the senate will elect a new leader, which due to the situation on Naboo, they were always going to go "aw, Naboo, oh heck Palpatine's from Naboo, let's elect him." Sure you can pick holes in it, but if you want to do that, the originals could easily be picked apart such as how on earth could the first Death Star travel at lightspeed considering it's size, how could the second Death Star be built so quickly and more. I think kids who saw Phantom Menace at same age many of us saw A New Hope (or Star Wars at the time) probably have as many fond memories as we do of it, although I'm just making an assumption here. Attack of the Clones was god awful though, only Natalie Portman in the S&M outfit on Naboo is worthwhile.
  2. I had that with the Money in the Bank on 2K15 when I simmed through a few years to try and unlock the storylines. That's the only thing I can think it might be
  3. Liverpool seem to want a penalty for absolutely everything today
  4. I saw that cover and thought that he looked perfect. It's undeniably Dr. Strange, he's got the hair and beard down, I'm happy. I mean I was happy anyway but I'm even happier now.
  5. Still can't grasp the submission system. I hate it, I hate that I'm losing matches to a regular chin lock purely because the system doesn't seem to work for me.
  6. Well from the canonical animated series Rebels, Ahsoka Tano (Anakin's apprentice from the Clone Wars) and Kanan Jarrus also survived. Some of the clones ignored the order by removing their control chip so it's possible more survived. In the "Legacy" universe, loads of Jedi survived the initial order before being killed by Darth Vader in what was a larger Jedi Purge. The problem with the Rebels series is the question of where are all of these characters during A New Hope? It can be assumed they are all dead, probably by Vader's hand but that's a bit dark for what is essentially a children's cartoon.
  7. See the overall idea of the prequel's I liked, if someone were to keep the overall plot but re-write it with human dialogue and more logical clashes then it would work fine. I actually, for the most part enjoyed Phantom Menace.
  8. Been on Community Creations for the first time in about a month and they seem to have fixed the ridiculous drag on downloads. They fixed counter with their first patch, but it still took forever. Saying that, in trying to download an old school Scott Steiner and it's dragging again. Damnit.
  9. Attack of the Clones is on Sky Movies at the moment. My god I've never noticed how awful the CGI is. I mean, I hated the fact it was so heavily reliant on effects anyway, but they have aged so, so badly considering the film is only 13 years old. Also on a story related point, the Jedi are made out to be complete chumps. I mean, lets say about 100 arrived on Geonosis yet only about 15 of them survived against some droids? The force wielding Jedi couldn't work out how to block or avoid blaster bolts but Padme doesn't get hit once? Literally the only redeeming feature this film has is the off the scale hotness of Natalie Portman. Is it this film or Revenge of the Sith where not one piece of clone trooper was made at all?
  10. Did exactly the same. Although would've liked to add a robe and hat but that was a bit too much effort.
  11. Just won 4-1 at West Ham in the six-pointiest six pointer ever. I might stay up!!!
  12. In a weird way, I kinda would like to go down. I ended up with (what I thought was) a decent squad, so it could be interesting to see which players I'd be able to keep and see how I get on. Although this all assumes I don't get sacked...
  13. I'm on course for my first ever relegation. After guiding AFC Wimbledon to the Premier League, I just can't buy a win. After 28 games, I've got 3 wins and even if I play decently, I can't score. Fortunately I'm only 18th and Reading one point above me are also awful so I'm hoping that keeps up. EDIT: Literally after clicking post, West Ham trounced Arsenal 4-1 and obviously Fulham got a good result and now I'm 20th.
  14. Saw it yesterday and after initially thinking it was plain as hell, I then realised that it is plain as hell but that makes it nice. It's clean and simple.
  15. TMM

    Fallout 4

    Well that's handy because that's the direction I was heading next
  16. TMM

    Fallout 4

    Whereabouts is the Constitution? I haven't heard or found it at all. Is it part of the main quest or just a random location?
  17. Damnit, I remember being so hyped for this game when it was announced. It's quite impressive how badly the ruined any relation to the original games without a proper campaign.
  18. What is the offline mode(s) like on this? I haven't looked into it too much, all I know is that the online stuff doesn't interest me at all.
  19. Even Chelsea aren't that desperate. Although I do think Niko Krancjar might do a decent job for them
  20. I was enjoying Jose Mourinho's descent into madness, although I think he was desperately begging to be sacked for the last couple of months. His ego is too huge to allow things to get any worse and let that be his legacy, he wanted to go earlier and throw around the argument that he wasn't given a chance to turn it around. Oh well, should be fun to see who comes in.
  21. People saying he's a reporter, he should know who Bruce Wayne is, well I highly doubt the political correspondents of the world know who the likes of Kyle Jenner is. Clark Kent's focus might not be on the world that Bruce Wayne inhabits. Superman knows "exactly" who Bruce Wayne is and like people have said, Clark is supposed to be bumbling enough so people would never guess he could be Superman, and I could almost guarantee there will be a line in the film where someone says "how do you not know who Bruce Wayne is?"
  22. Everton re-signed Wayne Rooney on mine. First season 7 in 24(10) and zero caps for England. Also in his second season, he can't get in the Everton team
