How much are we gonna bet Goh's gonna catch one of the new Regis?
Maybe, but probably not. Even if it does, it will probably be like Suicune, where he catches it but then it leaves to go out on its own and continue living free without any threat of capture being posed to it.

Also, nothing against you Micheal, but seeing this

and then this later on the same day

is a bit, kinda of funny to me.
It's just I had such high hopes for this film only for it IMO to end with massive disappointment. It was among my most anticipated films of this year.

I can get that, maybe next time, keep your hype in check.

'cuz you were hyping up this movie alot for some time now, and in the end, from what I seen online, it's pretty mixed atm.

Not to say you can't be excited at all for anything, but it's better to always keep some doubt about a product in case something goes wrong when it release.

tis a rare case where a mobile game ad is actually good.
Brings me back to the early 2010's, where mobile ads were over the top, but not unbearably so.

Someone help me out. There’s a movie where someone is standing on a dock and a shark ****ing jumps over the dock, eats the person, and then falls in the water on the other side without ever touching the ground. What movie is that?

This just occurred to me now but we need an action-adventure movie starring both Dwayne Johnson and Dave Bautista. That would be tons of fun!

The stupidest scene in the film was Sonya killing Kano with a garden gnome. Yes, I'm not kidding that happened...

Man, I was hoping Vanguard Overdress would be a breath of fresh air for the series, but I guess I underestimed the monkey's paw, because we're halfway through the season and we haven't had a single full fight.(they just skip the first 2/3ths with boring dialogue and clonky animation.) It feels like they're leaning too heavily into the slice of life aspect and forgetting what made Vanguard so special in the first place.

It's times like these I wish Buddyfight was still around.

I will say this though, it wasn't the worst movie this year and even then it was more disappointing than worst tbh. I'd definitely rank it above Tom & Jerry and Shadow in the Cloud.

That's my final say on the matter.

Real talk; should I be open and tell mom about the scheduled therapist telehealth meeting on my lunch break this coming Tuesday?

after I was officially diagnosed with depression and anxiety, she did agree to help me look for therapists. We just haven’t had time to make a decision back then cause taking care of dad and aunt took a lot of time. And since dad passed away a therapist could help with the grieving process for sure

I think you should. I don't think keeping it a secret will do much help between you two.

I just finished watching the new Mortal Kombat film...

Wow...What a disappointment that was. It just felt so bland, lifeless and didn't have the energy as the games did. The serious tone did not mesh well with it. What made Mortal Kombat great was its goofy tone that the 1995 film and even Scorpion's Revenge had.

The fact an animated film was better then this and couldn't live up to that is sad...

I gave no **** about this Cole Young guy, why was he even created
When Johnny Cage easily could have filled the role instead minus the whole descendant of Hanzo Harashi/Scorpion. Guess what the most we get out of Johnny Cage is him being teased at the end.

For the majority of the film, Scorpion isn't even in until near the end where he fights Sub-Zero with Cole Young. For being the face and mascot of the series, you'd think he would have a more major role. He may have been some random mook in the 1995 film but even in that his role was bigger.

Also why suddenly make Shang Tsung emperor and not Shao Kahn?

Felt nothing out of any of the characters in this film either. The characters in the 1995 film and Scorpion's Revenge actually had character, had personality.

I'll be sticking to the 1995 film and Scorpion's Revenge. I look forward more to a potential sequel to the latter than I will of this generic bland fest.
I guess I won’t be watching this movie after all.

That bad, huh?

Still plan to see Scorpion's Revenge.
To be fair this thread has a lot of unpopular opinions, no offense to anyone.

Everyone has the right to one, but it shouldn’t be the end all be all for forming your own personal judgement on something.

I've got the day off, so I decided to play Alien Isolation. I'm not much of a horror person (I've only seen one or two horror movies in theaters, depending on if Cloverfield counts, and the only horror games that I've played are Eternal Darkness, a handful of Resident Evil games, and Dead By Daylight if that counts (I mainly play as the killer, so from that perspective, I don't think it does)), but I liked Alien and Aliens, and I got it free on the Epic Games Store a while back.

I lasted about an hour before I "noped" out of there. (about the time that the alien showed up - shortly afterwards, there's a part where you have to wait for transportation to slowly, painstakingly arrive, and I spent that time crouched behind a column because I figured the xenomorph would wander into the room)

Now I'm choosing between two very different rail shooters - Resident Evil: The Umbrella Chronicles and Pokemon Snap.

I don't think anything comes close to Brawl Mario pissed.

Dude was ready to throw hands with YOSHI.
Mario had some serious anger issues back then, poor guy.

But he's since gone to counseling and has gotten much better! He only punches Luigi 3 times a week instead of 6 now: Good for him! :D

Mario’s never had much personality, but occasionally he’ll get a glimpse of one. And it’s hilarious.

In smash he’s a stone cold killer. In the first Mario rpg he’s quick to fly into a violent rage, no questions asked. In Luigi’s Mansion 3 he’s jumping all over the place like a cracked out demon.

Apparently Mario is a man with a kind heart and some ****in issues.
