I just cook for myself if I'm not good with the food. Rude? Sure? Hungry for something I'm ok with? Not anymore.

Too bad Tomb Raider: Back 2 the Tomb didn't get announced for January until today.
Getting mad over something as arbitrary as a resolution made due to a new span of written time is pointless, though what exactly is the situation?
Spoiler I really don't think it's fair to compare Phasma to Boba yet. She's only had one film: Boba had three, and didn't need to really be shown in action until Episode VI, which was the embarrassment for him. Also, it's not like Finn, Chewie, or Han know how to do what she's made to do. In terms of battles, I actually think Episode VI has the best Lightsaber battle so far with Luke and Vader. It's not overly flashy like the prequels and there's a lot of tension in every move. If you don't already know the ending, you're not sure how it's going to play out, despite one character's (increasingly waning) reluctance to kill. A few movements are a bit cheesy, sure, but I prefer the live-action stunts to obvious and aging CGI. Not to mention the music is great. The Prequel movies have some impressive battles, yes, but many are just too much style with too little substance. Episode III to me has the most excessive Lightstaber fight of the entire series in Obi-Wan vs Anakin. Again, I liked it, but....there is literally a moment where they rave their blades around and don't even try hitting one another. The fight just drags on for way too long as well. It should have been like, half as long. If anything, Episode I has the best duel of those three films because of the amazing choreography demonstrated by Ray Park as Darth Maul wielding a Double-Bladed Lightsaber. It's clear the guy is a martial artist, and he actually has a sense of what a fight should look like. Also introduced one of the best pieces of music in Star Wars. Just my two cents on your post.
It was ok but in the end nothing special, unfortunately.
My girlfriend and I finished her Star Wars catch-up marathon with the Machete Order. It totally works, though she now refers to Anakin as a "fuckboy" due to the prequel films. Seeing VII with her later today.
Just remembered I'm also giving the partner my former 8GB RAM sticks to help prepare for her eventual gaming PC.
You've reminded me that I have a big bag of M&M's just sitting next to me...
Jesus I need to get better friends or something.
I have, and that honestly depresses me a little, but what can you do.
Getting the partner Pokemon Super Mystery Dungeon, giving her a signed print of Electric Lady with a message for her, giving her Final Fantasy X/X-2 HD, and I'll probably get her more stuff when I see her. Got a Square Humble Bundle for a buddy. Not sure what to get everyone else.
Everyone else is being silly: Bloodborne Until Dawn Transistor (for the talking controller) Final Fantasy X/X-2 HD Life is Strange is great, but not exclusive and can run at double console FPS on a decent PC.
Play it on Easy to avoid the stupid grinding just to get decent abilities and enjoy the very Harry Potter story (unless you just watched the cutscenes which hurts me) I'd enjoy the bag or the Ultimania (or just whatever's left after the more deserving people help ease the load), and I can Paypal you whatever it costs to get them.
Spoiler Boy oh boy did they take a page (or many) from A New Hope. Not that this fact makes The Force Awakens a bad film, but I'm just a lot more excited for the next films than I was for this one. I really like how they handled Luke's disappearance; it reminds me of Yoda's exile and Obi-Wan's failure to keep Anakin from the Dark Side. As for his appearance in the film...expected. Wish it was more substantial. Finn's a character whom I already really like the arc of, however I'm worried about what they'll do with him now. As far as I can tell, he's developed fully. Not sure where to go from here, but that can be a pleasant surprise. I do like Rey, but she really feels too much like Luke all over again. They need to try harder next film to differentiate her. Show us what she has on her own that hasn't been done already. The cameos did feel dragged on, and it felt too obvious that Han was going to be the Ben of this film. Still, I was admittedly gripped by that scene. I think the most divisive character is Kylo Ren, and I can safely say that I love what they did with him. It truly feels like the first time I've seen a film character really stuck between Light and Dark Side, and unlike Zuko from Avatar: The Last Airbender, he's already done something very, very evil. So all in all, not quite as good as the original trilogy, but far more enjoyable overall than any of the prequel films (a big part of this is having a bunch of characters I really like, when the prequels basically only gave me Obi-Wan and Yoda.)
I expect you'll be getting Until Dawn and Bloodborne soon. I'd put my tag but I don't even have PS+ right now.
