Hellraiser

The same reason he decided not to use his army of AI-controlled Iron Man suits until the very end of Iron Man 3 instead of when the Mandarin was trying to kill him and his girlfriend with a small fleet of helicopter gunships I guess...

The 90s were a horrible decade for comic book adaptations...

If the Mad King had gotten his way King's Landing would be nothing buit a big pile of rubble and ash. Which in hindsight might've been preferable to the Baratheon/Lannister rule.

Am I the only one who enjoyed Ultron having personality and not being a cold-hearted machine à la Skynet? That was my biggest fear after watching the trailer. I love what James Spader did to the character and greatly enjoyed all of Ultron's interactions with the other characters in the movie. I'll agree with you though when it comes to him not simply killing the arms dealer and taking the vibranium from him. I suppose they needed to set up that character somehow but that scene made no sense.

I'm just watching the newest episode of Grey's Anathomy and Dempsey really must've pissed Shonda off. What I expected was a 2 hour special of everyone looking back at Derek and how he influenced them and all that kind of stuff since he pretty much was the male lead of the show. But this episode (I'm about 2/3 through it) isn't much about him at all.

100% agreed I don't even know why I keep watching this.

If they want us to treat this like a new game and not compare it to BF 1 & 2 and get mad about the features that will not be included in this new iteration then they shoudln't have called it "Battlefront"! It is as easy as that. If you brand your game with the name of an existing franchise that fans of said franchise hold very dear and then tell us that certain features won't be in the game or that we have to pay extra to get them of course fans will get pissed and rightfully so!

And why shouldn't it when the only reason they didn't use the name was out of fear of being sued by camp Ozzy (which in the end happened anyway)? H&H was as much Black Sabbath as any other incarnation of the band (other than maybe the line-up that recorded Seventh Star as that was supposed to be a Iommi solo album).

Hair Metal bands are fun as well: L.A. Guns (the Tracii Guns version) Ozzy Osbourne How about the godfathers of metal Black Sabbath themselves?

Why not? I haven't read past "A Clash of Kings" because I decided I wasn't going to read the books until the show finished but I read about Lady Stoneheart because some of you complained when the actress that played Catelyn Stark announced that she wasn't coming back for Season 4. From that point on I expected them to go in that direction and I see no reason why Sansa shouldn't grow as a character and with help of either Littlefinger or the rest of the north take on that role. In fact if it happens I'm looking forward to it because it would finally make her character interesting. No one is asking for what their motivation is. The Martells have no plot now. That is the problem. Who says they have no plot? Have you ever considered that the writers of the show may create some completely new elements? It seems to me that I'm the only one here who trusts the writers of the show to write a good story.

Again, why do the Marterlls need another reason to plot against the Lannisters than the murder of Elia and her children? Why isn't that enough? Seemed to be enough for Oberyin.

Who is going to oppose the wedding now that Tywin is dead? The Lannisters have enough problems on their hands as it is. Things are kinda falling apart at King's Landing. I doubt that those in charge really give a damn what happens to Sansa. And with Varys and his birds gone do they even know where she is? 1.I'm pretty sure they'll come up with some kind of scheme that explaines why Littlefinger have Sansa away to the Boltons. I'll trust them on that. 2. Okay, you have a point there. Brienne looks rather silly. 3. I think we've established that Varys' top proprity is the welll being of the realm. We've also established that he is never going to put the realm over his own well being. In his own words he isn't a hero. If he acted against King Robert's orders and supported Dany Robert would've killed him for treason. Also I think he wasn't entirely against Dany marrying Khal Drogo and there is no way he could've forseen his untimely death. 4. I don't know what that means. Does he really need more motivation to plot against the Lannisters other than the murder Elia and her children? The Martells seem to be very vindictive so shouldn't that be motivation enough?

Didn't we have a seperate thread for book and tv/book differencs discussion?

I kinda expected the graph for Malmsteen to be a little bigger. And sadly there isn't a graph for Swiss Hard Rock band Krokus. They had a shitload of members as well and they even sometimes switched instruments. And then there also is the Michael Schenker Group (brother of Scorpions guitarist Rudolf Schenker):

Seeing as this show is very popular here and the temptation to read these spoilers must be huge should we open another thread for those who didn't have enough self control? Or should we stick to spoilers?

That's exactly the reason why I watched all 4 episodes. I'd be totally pissed if something was spoiled for me.... Although, here are my thoughts on the four:

As much as I like Stannis I have one huge problem that makes me hesitate to pledge my undying allegiance to him and his cause:

You forgot the definitive Captain America: Reb Brown

Saul's ark kinda mirrors Walther White's ark, doesn't it?

Sony and Microsoft both require that games fit under a specific size. I agree though. If I want to fill my hard drive with stuff just for WWE, I should have that option. But that isn't an issue with 2K or the game. That's an issue with the companies that make the consoles. Thanks for pointing that out. I didn't know that. So it is the same kind of problem like mp3 support.

I'm honestly disappointed. To me it seems like for every step forward they took in terms of gameplay and grafics they took two steps back in regard to everything else. And I get that this is mostly due to them having to build the next-gen version from scratch and that the pressure from WWE to release a new game every year doesn't really allow them to work on the game for as long as they want to or add as many features as they want to. But I'm still disappointed. -Despite the scanning technology they use some models look off. And I'm not talking about the legends and other people they couldn't scan. I'm talking about people like Rusev whose upper torso seems way too small amongst others. I don't really know how they could change that through. -The chain wrestling needs to be reworked. It is new and fun for the first 2 or 3 matches you play but after a while it just gets repetitive and I turned it off. It is a good idea but it needs to be more dynamic -A new lightning engine. That always bothered me. If I want to douse the arena in red light for the entrance of my created superstar I want it to actually be doused in red light including reflection effects and everything . It seems like no matter how you set the lightning for the entrances it doesn't really matter since outside of a few expections (like Undertaker, Warrior and Wyatt entrance) it never looks right. -reworked weapon's physics and gameplay -more details outside the ring to make everything seem more realistic (like cameramen or a time keeper) if the computing capacity of the consoles allow for it. This is a very minor complaint although it really would help with the atmosphere -completely reworked Create a Superstar mode. This was honestly what disappointed me the most about the game. It was was absoluite shit this year. The CaS was always the strong suit for the Smackdown/SmackDownVsRaw/WWE game series that other game series (apart from maybe WrestleMania 2000 and No Mercy) were not fit to hold a candle to and added tons of replay value to the game. They ruined it this time. Even the face scan system couldn't hide the fact that this year's CaS was very limited and all the caws look samey. Although I loved that we are finally able to edit the attire of the roster. Maybe add the abillity for me to change beards and hair cuts and add face-paint although I know that would be a lot of work. -More than 25 Cas Slots. What the fuck where they thinking here? Or if that isn't possible for whatever reasons make it so that an alternate attire doesn't take up one entire CaS slot. -More match types. I don't need any new ones. Just bring back the ones they cut for no reason and in some instances are in the game in other modes but not in exhibition mode. And I want them to not declare them as new features. -The abillity to add my own costume music to the game. I get that this isn't their fault as it is the current-gen consoles themselves that can't read mp3s but I hope they get that sorted out for WWE 2k16 -Bring back all the other creative modes they cut/weren't able to implement into the game. And I want them to not declare them as new features -more generic entrance animations, legend animations and animations of former WWE superstars in the create an entrance mode. Or at least make it possible to create our own animations by using the taunts. -rework the career mode and add more storylines that don't only play out on Twitter, more interactions with other superstars the abillity to not only play as a CaS and no retirement after I won the WWE Championship. Make it more interesting. Another huge disappointment this year. -I know we already discussed this and I get that it is easier and cheaper to use superstars you already own the license for in showcase mode instead of contacting wrestler and negotiating deals with them but I want them not to have as many duplicates for the showcase mode and the DLCs next year. I would love for them to treat the showcase as away to add legends into the game. And if your promotional material tells me I'll get access to a certain wresler (even just as a manager) I want access to that damn wrestler! -re-worked match engines. It bothers me that after more than 15 years a ladder matche for example still playes more or less the same than it did in the PSX games -more counter animations and more than one option to counter the move. For example when my opponent wants to powerbomb me than I want to be able to counter that move into a back-body-drop when gets me into the starting position. And when he lifts me up being able to counter with a Hurricanerana or a Kidman's face crusher as a crusierweight or simply force him to fall backwards as a heavyweight. -when I'm done creating a wrestler, moveset, entrance etc. I don't want to be automatically thrown back to the main menu. I know this isn't really a big problem but it gets REALLY annoying after a while. I know the list is unrealistic, it is impossible to implement it all and some of these things have plagued the SmackDown/SmackDownVsRAW/WWE2K Series for years but no one said that a whish list needs to be realistic. If I would have to pick one thing to be the priority for WWE 2k16 I would have to choose between a better Career mode and a better CaS mode.
