I do think a lot of interest will wane for me once Paddy is gone. This show is otherwise just so devoid of interesting characters. Alicent is boring. Rhaenyra is boring. Daemon is annoying. Cole is a mopey bore. I almost have to hope that the adult versions of Rhaenyra and Alicent kids morph into interesting characters, otherwise I do not know how this show is going to keep the audience's interest.

Doesn't have a way to control the video progress if I open it.

Looking a LOT like young Cindy here!

It was okay. I like Olivia Cooke better as Alicent. Blacks vs. Greens is what the two parties are called after the Tourney in honor of Viserys' wedding to Alicent. Named for the colors they wore at that occasion. The only reference to that they included was Alicent's green dress last episode (at Rhaenyra's wedding instead of her own wedding). IIRC, Cole is also to knock Breakbones off his horse in the joust at that tourney, which is meant to be the start of their rivalry. It is very weird they included almost none of that in the show.

Wait, I only realized now that we never got the Greens vs. Blacks tourney. That's odd.

That's what happened to him! I had wondered having seen recent pictures how his face has changed so much.

I'm assuming things are slightly different in the privacy of their own home, they wouldn't really be fighting in front of paparazzi after all.

Definitely the one that sold the best. Yeah definitely saw some Skyrim influence in Skellige portions of Wild Hunt.

When did Mella show off her acne?

Well just the quality of the games itself. Then later on, the strong and active modding community around it, giving the games huge replayibility value. Like Skyrim is nearly eleven years old (!!!) but still has a very active modding community, releasing creative new mods almost daily. A fully modded version barely even looks like the released game any more.

VS: We have one of the most gorgeous girls in the world on our roster! *features her in one of the most boringly styled shoots for the umpteenth time* 🙄

In general the Fallout franchise as well as the Elder Scrolls franchise is both fun to play but also strangely appealing because of its slightly janky quality.

Fallout New Vegas wasn't even that graphically impressive at the time of its release. I would say that wowing you primarily with the beauty of the graphics isn't the main appeal of Bethesda or Obsidian games. And they usually didn't have the kind of teams working on those games to deliver the kind of polish that you can expect from say something like the GTA franchise.

She was actually much younger than I thought when she started doing Weird Science. 28 for the first season. Six months short of her 32nd birthday for the final episode. I would have guessed that she was early thirties when she did the first season. That means she was also super-young at the time she shot her Spies Like Us cameo! Probably only 18 during the time of the shoot (the movie was released in December of 1985 so she would have only turned 19 a month earlier).

Really? I think it is great. Much better than Obi-Wan or Boba Fett.

Ken Levine also seemed to have soured a bit on the industry after that experience. And I think you need an obsessed figurehead like him to even attempt to make something like Bioshock Infinite. His next project appears to be in development hell: https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2022-01-03/bioshock-creator-s-next-game-and-its-narrative-legos-in-turmoil

This might already be my favorite Disney SW show. It maintains the same atmosphere and tone from Rogue One. A lovely ensemble as well. I have very high hopes for this one.

My two favorite ones are probably Deadwood and Rome in that order.

Yes. The scale of the world feels bigger and also I love time travel narratives. Knights of the Old Republic was great. One of the first truly great single player RPGs I ever played. The sequel had the potential to be even better but LucasArts forced Obsidian to finish the game within an absurdly short time-line. So lots of stuff felt unfinished. But had they been given the time to properly finish it, I think it could have eclipsed even KOTOR.

No offense to Behati but when she married the dude if you had asked me the odds of him eventually cheating on her, I would have guessed 99.99%. Rock stars/musicians sleep around when they are on the road. Athletes sleep around whenever they play road games. I always assumed girls went into these relationships knowing this stuff.

Grew up primarily knowing her from Weird Science and her small role on Spies Like Us. I wasn't really familiar with her modeling career.

@Enrico_sw Good question. All time is a long time, I have been playing video games for more than thirty years now. I will limit myself to just PC games. In no particular order: Knights of the Old Republic Mass Effect II Dead Space Age of Empires Fallout: New Vegas Honorable mentions: The Witcher III: Wild Hunt, Saints Row 4, Commando's: Behind Enemy Lines, Rainbow Six (original 1998 game), Tomb Raider II, GTA: Vice City, XCOM 2, Wasteland 3, Bioshock Infinite

Jess was so gorgeous!

I am amused at all the people surprised at the news that Adam Levine cheated on Behati. 90% of music/rock stars cheat when they are on the road. There are probably hundreds just like this tiktok girl who decided to kiss & tell who just kept their mouths shut about it. This isn't even just limited to musicians, actors are the same. There are clips out there of RDJ & Jude Law discussing cheating on their girls whilst doing press for one of the Sherlock Holmes films they did together, after being confronted with a cute girl doing their interview.

Ironic that I was really intrigued by Daemon's wife (both the character and the actress) and she got all of five minutes of screentime.
