![]() ![]() ![]() I also got board / thread settings at least mostly in place. The only things really missing from the forum stuff that is critical are a report system and a few moderation tools (delete thread, moderate user, etc.) as well as profile pages for navigating to something like u/cheat. I mentioned this but you can tag people in posts: ![]() Once I get the above stuff done I'm going to push through the alpha. PMs / groups will be done post-launch. 65

I won't bother reviewing because I feel like this is a movie that either you completely love or you are completely 'meh' about. I was completely devastated at the end of this film and felt like I was having panic attacks throughout; I had to do a rewatch to catch everything. If you're into stuff like The OA, mind bending stuff, or are part of the LGBT world you gotta try this film. 66

The 2011 film told the story of The Brass Verdict, but did little to make Mickey Haller appear the way he's presented in the books. In contrast, this new series hits all the marks, and I honestly felt nostalgia from when I was like 14 and my Dad got me that book. In short, the movie didn't hit the mark for me (they didn't even get the protagonist's ethnicity right), but the Netflix series did. I'm only partway through season two, but it's a banger for sure. 67

First movie since Infinity War that actually lived up to the hype and exceeded it. Villeneuve is going to top Nolan as the best modern director at this rate. Dude's on a generational streak. I agree Furiosa was disappointing Didn't really like Anya Taylor Joy as Furiosa And definitely way too much CGI Although this might just have been because Fury Road spoiled us with great practical effects Also the war between Immortan Joe and Dementus was shown in a 3O second montage Like bruh that was the most interesting part of the movie and it was just glossed over Either way, sad to see the flop means Mad Max The Wasteland will potentially get pushed back or not happen 68

Furiosa was a bit meh for me. I know they had budget limitations but they relied way too heavily on the CGI for it to even come close to the action calibre of Fury Road. Chris Hemsworth stole the show though. Civil War was also enjoyable. Would've liked a bit more exploration into the root cause of the actual war, but it was a generally pretty solid war drama with a sweet action sequence at the end. 69
