I donated, and best wishes to DEAN and family. DEAN is one of the good ones. I recall nearly 18 years ago when I was doing a little live internet radio show DEAN would tune in and make song requests. He's in my thoughts.

And another domino falls in my Devils miracle season. So long, Boston! Now let's put away the fucking Rangers once and for all.

I'm calling Cody fighting his way over the course of time to win the new belt and then take it to the rematch with Roman at the next Mania to unify all three and win it all. The whole " he needs to earn it" thing has been part of this. He came back at the Rumble at 30 and got the title shot. Dusty's son needed to get beat at Mania and then have a long journey full of distractions and hard times before winning it all.

Maybe it's the gummies, but I really enjoyed that show. I liked seeing the old timers, I liked that the first round of the draft made sense and that by the last round it was kinda random. I dug that they drafted factions and teams, no stupid breakups.
And I loved the main event and all the story involved. They teased us with the Solo deal, and Riddle taking him out makes sense since for the first time in awhile lately, babyfaces have loose alliances and stick together.
I liked seeing AJ and the OC get off to a great restart beating up the dopey looking Vikings.
But my favorite part of the show was during the 3 way tag team match. First, Strowman is on the outside distracted by his shirt or something, with his back to the ring as Dawkins is about to leap out of the ring onto him. Strowman turns around just as Dawkins connects. Then, Dawkins has his back to the ring and turns around just as Ricochet hits him with a flip from the ring.
It looked awesome. I put up with watching wrestlers stand around outside awkwardly waiting to get hit or catch someone because I watch modern wrestling. This spot made it make sense. I popped.

Probably more a case of whatever set they would need for however long. That almost surely would have cost more than Koenig.
Maybe they were being nice since, as stated above, Walter's not looking great?

I just watched it again. I never do that. I can't recall the last time I watched an episode of TV and watched it again a couple of hours later.
This time I picked up more of the origin of BQ's plan. The Borg were all but dead after being poisoned by Janeway and the Queen has been eating the Borgs who were left to stay alive. Jack Crusher, while traveling to the reaches of the quadrant got her attention because sperm have Borg implants. Then BQ hooked up with the Changeling Terrorists to start their evil plan based on both of them being almost genocided by Starfleet .-

That's fine with me, just hearing him. He looked really awful in the last few promo pics with Nichelle Nichols.
Not to be an dipshit from Jersey, but THAT show had " budget " issues getting Koenig on screen? What's his quote?

Apparently they got him because he is Stashwick's neighbor. They wanted him live but sadly didn't have enough budget left for it.
Keep in mind in universe Shaw probably is at least a few years older than Seven. That said, he was definitely referring to his mentality with the relic of the past talk. Shaw has been in Starfleet for 2-3 decades while Seven has only been there for a two years.
And Seven had been a Fenris Ranger, who while rouge , are on the side of good, something Shaw brought up in an early episode in a dismissive way. That's the kind of thing that really ties all the threads together. Shaw privately called her Seven of Nine. He didn't say it to her officially because of a mixture of Starfleet Protocol, being a survivor of Wolf 359, and being a dipshit from Chicago.
I love that it wasn't a team up of the Borg and the Changeling Terrorists, it was a team up of the CT's and the Borg Queen who we thought Alt timeline Janeway had killed.

In case some of you don't know... post credits scene
The opening alone made me geek out. Of course I'm still qantingvanswers to what happened to Jurati/Borg Queen

Matalas said that those Alt timeline Jurati Borgs are still guarding that wormhole and are not connected to the real Borg.
Holy shit, that was outstanding. I cried with joy the whole hour. And Star Trek: Legacy is definitely going to happen.

Russ Burlingame, the senior editor at ComicBook.com, and a friend of mine, wrote a book about the Josie movie. It's one of his passion projects.

Has film Star Wars ever really been consistent with how long space travel is? I don't remember anyone really talking about it being an issue. Trek does when it matters but throws it away when necessary.

I keep laughing to myself seeing Johnny mention Disco like he’s talking about the genre of music.
I'm gonna get me one of this Disco t shirts the crew wear. And hopefully one of the " Cerito" shirts from Lower Decks.
-
The Short Treks they did during the first two seasons of Disco are pretty great. The one with H. Jon Benjamin and the Tribbles is hilarious.
-
I like Discovery more than most folks here and I love Yeoh's character so I'm looking forward to the Section 31 movie.
I could go on for awhile about what I love about Disco and what I don't like about it. I'll just say that the constant " dealing with trauma" storylines got to be too much and it took forever before we knew jack shit about the Bridge crew. However, I adore Sonequa Martin-Green, Mary Wiseman, and Doug Jones. The first season Klingon stuff was a chore but I loved the Mirror Universe part.
-
I just remembered that I did walk out of Howard The Duck 10 minutes in at my girlfriend's insistence and we snuck into Aliens.
I worked at a theater from Fall 87 through June 88 and there were definitely some shitty movies. And it was an old classic theater that had one huge screen and a balcony. The worst ones off the top of my head were the Friday the 13th with the girl who had telekinetic powers, Casual Sex, and the first Steven Seagal flick.
-
The new and last season of Marvelous Mrs. Maisel is really good thus far. The first episode was just ok, but it kicks it up a knotch with the second ep.

I've never walked out of a movie. The closet was when my friends and I went to see Toys. Everyone wanted to leave, and I insisted we tough it out. My friends busted my balls about that for years.

Matalas on twitter said that Alison Pill Borgs are still guarding that wormhole. They waved that away on the show when Shaw said , " Never mind that weird shit that happened on the Stargazer." He also said that the real Borg have been in the Delta quadrant since Janeway poisoned them in the last episode of Voyager, until now.
Also, the nebula the cube is hiding in isn't a nebula.

Shelby got done pretty dirty too, as an aside.
It was the only time I laughed during an episode where I cried around six times. It was incredible. I'll be geeking out here later but it is definitely bedtime.
edit: I adore that Kirk's remains in Daystrom and Shaw mentioning Generations were the easter eggs assuring us that the D was gonna be the last team member to join before they save the galaxy. Not to mention the souvenir bit in the first Ep. The same Ep that started with Picard log from Best In Both Worlds. All the bread crumbs were there while I was enthralled by a mixture of my love for DS9 and the Red eye Herring that definitely was intended to fake us out re: Pa Wraiths and Dukat. Which as much as I wanted it, really wouldn't have made sense.
Trek has been de-fanging the Borgs since " I, Borg". Big scary Borgs like this?
Fuck. Yeah.

RIP DEAN RASMUSSEN
in BOARD NEWS/FEEDBACK
Posted
Not to soon after I started posting at DVDVR, I started experimenting with this new thing called Internet Radio. You could create your own "station" and up to a whopping 12 or 13 people could tune in at a time to listen to me bullshit and play music. I'd post the link here and eventually Dean started tuning in and making obscure song requests like "Teddy Bear" by Red Sovine.
Dean would then post that the show was NUMBER ONE AND THE BEST, and that meant the world and validated that what I was doing was worth doing. Around the same time he started doing the Comix, and he was supportive as I drew my little comix series for the DVDVR group collections .
That led to me eventually doing the internet show WHATAMANOOVER! that got support here and contributions from Pete and Ray and others. And that's how I met Goodhelmet Will and led to us being close friends to this day who did a lot of audio together. Follow that to meeting my podcast partners from Titans Of Wrestling at PWO, who became some of my closest friends and collaborators to this day. All roads lead back to Dean and the fucking amazing man he was, and still is in all our hearts.
So long, my friend. And may all the angels be wearing tiny paunts.
