So Wakanda is definitely part of the UN

Sad!

And their embassy in the US is being put in the one building in the hood lol

#GoSeeAlita (no, really, there's an anti-gun control line).

But I read the manga already my dude

Such a sad day https://www.msn.com/en-ca/news/canada/283-guns-turned-into-sask-police-for-destruction-during-amnesty/ar-AAB5KdS?OCID=ansmsnnews11

He looks like a preppy frat boy about to get shwasted during spring break

Now there’s a word I haven’t heard in a few years

@Beemann just cause you read Gunnm is no excuse not to see Alita.

Sure it is. Adaptations are inferior products

If I want more Alita there's still 2 more series to read

They aren't always inferior. Alita was really good. If anything watch it for the cgi

I don't watch anything for the CGI

You won't be, but if there was any movie you should watch just for the CGI. It would be Alita.

I figure my parents and sisters will probably like it, if nothing else

My dad likes CGI and my mom likes strong wahmen movies

Alita isn't really a whamen. She's just a girl.

This is interesting. I would need to understand the bill more before saying whether I would support it or not.

I generally don't like the idea that government needs to act as a parent to children

👆

On the other hand, loot boxes need to fuck off

Why are these parents just letting their kids use their credit cards, you can't pay the games with cash

I never wanted to buy anything through an online game as a kid because my parents would scrutinize whatever I wanted to spend money on to the point that it wasn't worth it

I suppose I got a debit card when I was around 14 but the ethic was set by then

Loot boxes will fuck off when people stop buying them

I've actually paid for a loot box only once or twice and I never play games that rely on them for the entertainment

I also don't see how you can legally distinguish loot boxes from tickets at an arcade or something

I've paid for lootboxes to support a small devteam I like. I already owned all the characters, and that only cost 30 bucks

These bigass games with paid progression, I skip

I bought Paradox DLC for a while mostly because I wanted to support them, but they've become a bit ridiculous with the amount of $20 DLC they make adding features instead of fixing problems with the current game

Yeah I don't buy paradox anymore

I've kept up with CK2 DLC as they go on sale for 50% off when I'm actively playing, but I haven't played or bought anything for EU4 for a long time. They added so many mechanics that seemed so gimmicky

@Beemann,
If you do not see the movie there will not be a second one.
If there is not a second movie then the Antisocial Just Us Thugs win.

I don't spitebuy either

@Beemann it will get a sequel regardless. James Cameron loves Gunnm too much. The question is just when Disney decides to greenlight it.

Might not be till after another 1-2 avatars.

Man that's a franchise I don't see the point of

Me neither. But hey... It makes money.

Cue that amazing Mark Hamill clip
