I love the X-Men films. I have them all on blu-ray and look forward to each one. Are some of them better than others? Yes of course, but how the fucking god awful and geeky as fuck 'Marvel universe' films all get a free pass and yet it's cool to shit on the X-Men films is beyond me.

[The Jackal]

Not seen Logan tho.

Watch it, it's the best of the lot imo.

Logan is excellent, as is Days of Future Past.

They welcome yellow spandex and can actually keep their continuity mostly on point and ROFL at Last Stand. Holy fuck that film is awful. Way to shit on the Dark Pheonix Trilogy and how the Last Stand seemed to forget Magneto had a machine that could turn people into mutants. How about when Beast uses the cure for warfare then quit his job because....he doesn't want the gov to use the cure for warfare. Oh hey, remember the time they pretty much skipped over any good opportunity for Sabertooth & Wolverine to have a good fight in the first film or Storms accent! Remember when Rogue didn't fly or was not a badass but a pouty teen...they made her Jubilee for some reason in everything but name and powers. Remember when Jubilee was a teen in the 80s and the 2000s? Remember when Hank was human in the second film but he is a beast in the 80s? They can't keep anything straight. Remember when Gambit was not in the films...except Origins and well the less we talk about Origins the better. Esp Sabertooth, Deadpool, and the CGI.


The only films I even liked that technically belong to the X-men Fox universe is Deadpool and even they said fuck previous films continuity with Colossus & Juggernaut. Not all Marvel films are good tho. Dark World is ass. Black Panther is just Lion King. Phase 1 films are kinda lame now esp Ironman 2 & Hulk. Boy those are not good. Age of Ultron was a real letdown but hey it gave us Olsen.

One of those came in very handy the other day.
Was taking a shortcut and unfortunately got stuck in not the safest part of town. That power bank/car battery charger potentially saved my hide.

I've considered buying such a product as it not only charges the battery but laptops, phones, etc.., The old cables are just too much these days.

[The Jackal]

Days of Future Past.

Yeah I liked that. First Class was good too. Apocalypse was...disappointing.

and the CGI.

Oh don't even get me started on that shit. I remember watching Origins and the scene where he pops his metal claws for the first time, I'm like "am I watching the leaked DVD rip?". Nope, it's was the final edited version. Awful film.

Ah, man... we were almost besties, too.

I really like [most of] those movies. Of course, I am pretty geeky, so take that with a grain of salt.

Well, at least Origins got Deadpool right.

It's a little beast, to be sure. I tested it as well with an really old battery that I thought almost definitely was dead. The powerbank has a little "booster" button for just such instances. It started that battery up right away.

I also noticed that it has a 12V out port. So I tested it with a router of mine to see if it would power it on. No issues. Backup power time for that in excess of 5 hours.
That's a big deal in this neck of the woods, given the frequent power outages and electricity load shedding imposed by the "leaders" of our banana republic.

DMC5 sold 2 million in 2 weeks! On it's way to easily be the best selling in the series. Maybe 5-6 million! DMC is back after 11 years in full force!

Well here's the thing, the closest I got to being a comic 'geek' was when I was a kid, and I would read everything I could get my hands on that was Spider-Man related. Probably why I will always defend the Sam Raimi trilogy and probably why I HATE the endless fucking reboots. "Oh well they have to make Spider-Man fit into the Marvel Universe." Why?! I couldn't give two fucks about the Marvel Universe, I just love Spidey and the X-Men. I do acknowledge that comic geeks love the Marvel Universe and it's attention to detail, but as I'm not one of them I'm kind of left standing out in the cold rain staring in through the window, watching a party unfold that I neither understand nor was invited to, and holding what's left of a tattered and soggy Amazing Spider-Man comic, a single tear running down my cheek... As an aside I do get VERY fucking geeky about Sega, classic horror, the Alien films, the Resident Evil franchise and James Bond movies, so I am a big geek about quite a few things...just not comics.

[Thierry Henry]

Looks like serious business.

I may finally get a smartphone soon. blah

1980 Space Invaders Championship,

Great pic. It's amazing that they were having video game tournaments three years before I was born. You tend to think of that as a far more modern phenomenon.
