Wait, did you know how the walls work? Was it just buggy?

The trick is to

I did get your point. I was just poking some fun.

@majestic Of all the songs you picked that one... It's a popular song I guess and it won eurovision, but man am I sick of it by now. Here is something much better.

Happy new year!

I really disliked Don't Look Up, it just wasn't funny or interesting. I guess it was more for the US audience.

Yes, it's even told in the video I linked, but they still fulfilled the role they were designed for, it's just that the enemy it was meant to combat never came to be. Just like the sr-71 was not very useful for any actual reconnaissance of mainland Russia and was made obsolete by satellites. I get what you are saying, I'm not trying to strawman. What I'm trying to say is that they were good enough for what they were made to do. It's also a testament to their design that in spite of Soviet manufacturing capabilities they were able to that much. Some of the migs records still stand. The biggest mark against the mig-25 is that it's one of the ugliest plane the Soviets made.

No, no I just caught my mistake there. I guess the hypersonic is the current trend now, so I just derped. Could they not just plate the missiles with what the space shuttles used, it's not like it needs to be reusable. As for the planes, I think they will go the way of the drones, where it will simply be quantity over quality.

I meant supersonic...

My point being not that China is not shady, it certainly is as much as any of the superpowers are, but that corporate and military espionage is simply an integral part of any powerful country, it's how they remain so.

The mig-25 was made to counter hypersonic bombers that the US never made. I mean the US outright stole the technology for a supersonic plane from the British. It's a great myth that China is the biggest thief of tech in the world, the US was caught numerous times stealing tech, from it's own allies even, they just have better PR. Where do you think the Titanium the Blackbirds were made off came from? edit: I forgot about operation Paperclip. edit2: Supersonic not hypersonic.

A Silent Voice is on a whole other level. It's a very different tone and story. If you have never seen it I can't recommend it enough. I hope you give it a shot.

Calling the MiG-25 crap is a bit of a stretch... It's biggest flaw was that it was tailor made to combat a non-existent threat. That's kind of like calling the SR-71 crap.

Encanto, a nice Disney cartoon. Was a treat to watch.

I mentally prepared my self for it to be crap, so I wasn't really disappointed and luckily I quit after ep.3.

I don't think it's even that, I think it's the fact that this is his foot through the door for making TV/Movies for some of his own stuff. Plus he stated that the showrunner listened to most of the suggestions he had, so it would not look good to badmouth the show after that. Also let's not exclude the option that he really does like the show.

I really hope that is the case, but somehow I don't think it is.

Explains some things. Wonder how the show is doing number wise, are the numbers good enough for Amazon. Also Brandon is sticking to his guns, guess that is the case when you work on something and are involved.

I can't wait to see what Brandon S. will say.

Shame, shame, shame.

You are right, he is born in January, the 7th to be precise.

He's been talking about it for years now.

The French Dispatch my movie of the year. Was thinking about this question since Keyrock posted it, then I finished watching the movie just moments ago.
