Terry Crews would have also been acceptable.

I honestly wish they would have done an Iron Fist show instead of Daredevil
Pretty sure Iron Fist is the plan.

Glad to help. I've got an idea.

I think the idea is to introduce Cage in Jessica Jones then Cage gets his show, then introduce Iron Fist in Cage and then Iron Fist gets his show. And then something about Moon Knight.

There's supposed to be a big team-up show eventually, too. So much TV. I'm glad I hate Shield so I don't have to watch it.

They want to make the Avengers B-Team or whatever in a few seasons

But they have to make two seasons of Daredevil because people loved it I think

I just finished the final season of this. It was really nice to FINALLY see a decent sci-fi series with a good ending (or any proper ending for that matter instead of being axed).

Dat Carlos.

Good to hear. I haven't watched the final season yet but I liked the third one, that time travel stuff is completely brutal.

I liked seeing all the San Francisco stuff. That dumpy home they moved into is probably ~$2.5mil and would rent for 3.5k/mo.
I liked the other parts of the movie too, except for the imaginary friend. imaginary friend felt forced.

I watched The Martian and I enjoyed it. It had your boy Sebastian Stan in it. He has a boner for train girl from house of cards.

I hate my job.

The tavern brawl in Hearthstone this week is co-op and people seem to think it might be a preview of Blizzard adding co-op.

I liked the Martian but the climax was kinda silly.

Fallout 4 launch trailer was so underwhelming. Something is missing for me with this game. Not paying full price.

Agreed. I also know they're a real thing but it's hard for me to take those EVA Jetpacks seriously when they make Jessica Chasten look like Metron.

I will be, especially because I got 90 dollars back from my Batman Preorder even after 35 hours of game time. The Batmobile is terrible and the combat and predator challenges aren't as good as the ones in Arkham City despite sleeker animations and better enemy variety.

But yeah, they have an uphill battle trying to make Boston interesting. IRL it's basically 7 or so college towns amalgamated into one pretending to be a city. Looking forward to exploring vaults though.

Also coming out soon: Battlefront's planet tours are super cool.

I'm just not there with Bethesda games anymore. In fairness though they did a much better job with Fallout 3 than they did with Oblivion and Skryim.

I binged iZombie. People described it to me as Veronica Mars with zombies and it is. I'm in love.

I'm going all in on Fallout 4 because Fallout 3 was better than the Elder Scrolls games, and from the streams I've watched the game does actually seem to run pretty well and the combat mechanics actually seem pretty fun. Graphically it definitely doesn't look very pretty but i'll take it. I need Fallout in my life so I have no choice.

Also yeah Arkham Knight was shit. I call it Batman: Hotwheels.

It kinda blows my mind that people expect a Bethesda game to have good graphics. Like when has that ever been the case? Skyrim was good for an open world game but it was nowhere near cutting edge.

This is true. Texture mods might have changed the perception.

It's really the textures that have looked terrible in what I've seen of Fallout 4, and Bethesda has never been great with those. It does probably look a bit uglier than it should but it's not like this is a Crytek or DICE game or something.

I thought I was making good progress not using real money in Hearthstone and then they go and announce more PvE wings. I think it's now like $70 total for all the wings and the cards that come with them, and that doesn't even start on the card packs.
