  1. I echo your sentiments on Supergirl with Brooks' departure and Lena's continuing spiral. In the comics Kate is actually decently disciplined as Batwoman. She isn't Bruce level, but she isn't Dick levels either. Her father acting as her support with both having military backgrounds made sense of it. Her having to learn on the go actually makes sense with how she came into the cowl and her general story in the CW series. While it will be nice to see a follow up on the super family, I'm not sure I really want a full blown show about them.
  2. This would totally be believable if not for that recent news of them not knowing what the fuck they were doing in Game of Thrones the first few seasons and having to learn as they went along. You have to imagine They want to avoid that kind of shit with Star Wars at this point. I know its something you hate, but I would like to hear more about this.
  3. I've never read the books so I have no hate for the idea of Boba Fett surviving. That question from month's ago was just an idle curiosity. I know the Mandalorian isn't Fett. No reason to think otherwise.
  4. I'm kind of pissed. My DVR screwed up around 20 minutes in about 2/3 through Kairi/Becky. I ended up missing nearly half of Raw. Was there anything worthwhile in that first half outside of Kairi/Becky? Managed to catch form the Viking Raiders and on. Seth/Rowan was pretty solid though I have trouble enjoying Seth matches even when they are well done. I was really hoping Harper would show up to help Rowan murder Seth. I do hope stuff like that dick moment ending with the forklift driver is at least leading to a heel turn for Seth. Humberto/AJ was pretty darn good though Carillo felt off compared to AJ. Who was the chick with Sin Cara? The whole Rusev/Lana/Lashley angle is pretty much like the Shorty G shit with Gable on Smackdown. It is fucking terrible, but I can't deny its actually getting Rusev over. Of course it wouldn't be necessary had the struck while the iron was hot during Rusev day in the first damn place.
  5. You people really need to check out Momo vs. Mayu from the final day of the tournament.
  6. And now he is claiming he only agreed to the shirt because it was shown to him on a white tee originally.
  7. He admitted to approving the design. He said he was uncomfortable with the design and tried to make counter offers only to be lied to about HHH being the one to push for it. Basically he didn't tell them his issues with it until after the decision was made, including his approval being given. Considering the scorched earth he is going for he clearly is trying his hardest to be fired.
  8. I'm in the same boat. I only buy Detective at the moment and am usually a good 2-3 months behind on actually reading it. Otherwise I read a few books via the library meaning I'm like 6-9 months behind on even the big stuff like Batman and Justice league.
  9. Talent really need to start getting clauses for signing off on their merch. That is an embarrassing level of laziness.
  10. How often do talent have hand in their merch designs? The only one I can recall offhand was Cena's 8-bit t-shirt
  11. That was a fun book. Have the characters made any regular appearances elsewhere since the series was cancelled?
  12. I apologize and will try not to ruin thread any further this close to the end.
  13. I question timing of anyone choosing to air grievances after said grievances were supposedly settled. I'm not going to excuse it just because he is black. We saw Lio Rush just this year choose to casually play the race card to try and get out of poor lockerroom traditions that had nothing to do with race. I dislike someone taking advantage of actual issues just to further their own personal goals. You are the one who is assuming I'm just fine and dandy with the company and have no issues. The problem is these issues have been seen and known for a while now so its hard for me to sympathize with him wanting to take a stand suddenly when he signed on knowing them. Beyond that this is a particular incident that could have easily been a case of ignorance and misunderstanding. If it was something more then I would at least like some detail on it. Well seeing as he mentioned that he will keep posting until his voice is heard and WE get what we deserve, this is clearly more than him trying to say how shitty the situation is. That implies he has a somewhat tangible goal in mind. Blackface imagery. There has been an issue with companies recently either purposefully or accidentally letting such things slide in their merchandise.
  14. You have shown no intentions speaking with me in a respectful tone so why should I watch my tone? Because I take up issue with the potential of this all ending only with Jordan Myles as NXT champ six months later instead of attempts to change issues behind the scenes. I dislike being manipulated to further someone's personal goals, especially when racism is involved. Basically right now I have little reason to believe Myles is legit taking a stand. If he were to quit/refuse to work while trying to rally people then I would not be asking these questions. As it is I think its fair to ask what it is he actually wants and not be vague about it when trying to rally people to his cause.
  15. Either be straight with me when you have an issue with a comment or ignore my post instead of acting like a sarcastic ass. Also just like you claim that wasn't what you said, I never said I had no issues with the company. The difference is while I think its an issue the shirt was ever made I also think there is a bit of an issue with Myles bringing the issue up well after the fact. It feels manipulative, especially when he is vague as fuck about what they can do to actually resolve the issue with him.
  16. So I should just agree with Myles blindly because I'm black and woke?
  17. And what does that entail to him specifically? The design was changed quickly, and he seemingly said nothing until a month later from what I've gathered. Has he talked to HHH or Vince since then? Did they not issue an apology? What is it that has set him off a month later? Is there any way they can realistically settle this with him?
  18. So what is it Myles exactly wants and feels WE deserve?
  19. Wonder if they will tape this one. Will be interesting to see what kind of card they have with all the women in NXT, NXTUK, & the PC.
  20. I skipped the opening segment since I have zero interest in the Team Hogan vs. Team Flair stuff for the Saudi show. Will say that Gale looks ridiculous now. New Day vs. Ziggler/Roode was decent while it lasted. Dug the Lacey segment/Squash. The Firefly Fun House was good fun. Loved RR mentioning the muscle man in a suit always firing him when he was in hell. Mandy/Nikki was decent. Was nice getting to hear Bayley and Sasha on commentary. Both are so much more comfortable as heels it isn't even funny. The Brock/Mysterio/Velasquez segment was awesome. Poor Dominic getting murdered again was wonderful. I really hope he turns out to be a good wrestler because he kind of deserves a contract if only for the beatings he has taken. The six man tag was pretty darn good. This was a pretty solid show for me, but I also skipped the parts that were likely the worst of it.
  21. Wow, that i some bs. Sorry to hear that, Eddie. Hope you can find somewhere that treats you better.
  22. Private Worlds were never going to be free. Honestly, this was the general community thought and mostly accepted well before Fallout 1st was announced so people pretending otherwise to create faux outrage is kind of annoying. Not that there aren't issues with it, but much of times these outrages start with 76 it makes me annoyed at both the player base who goes overboard pushing them and Bethesda for being dumb enough to leave themselves open to the criticisms.
  23. Still need to finish the second season, but that one would bother me less.
  24. So I take this will be before he dedicates himself to watching over Luke.
