If a lifetime of watching action tv shows and movies have taught me anything, its that the hero can take up to three people at once tops. He's going to have to have somebody run interference on the 4th and 5th ones until he takes down the first three. And if they get to 6 or more, they're better off trying to work together to escape.

RIP film director Stanley Donen. Directed, amid others, Singin' in the Rain, Funny Face, Damn Yankees, Charade and Arabesque.

The Monkees was the only show that my mom forbade us to watch, albeit temporarily (they showed it twice a day, five days a week at one point in local syndication, meaning that with 58 episodes, every 5 weeks you started it over and we watched it every single day twice a day - my mom just got tired of seeing the same episodes over and over. She relented a few years later because it is a fun show and she'd recovered from being forced to watch the 58 episodes umpteen times).

The Wild Wild West is set during the Grant administration (1869 - 1877) and is retroactively considered steampunk (since the term wasn't coined during the years it ran on CBS).

Microsoft bought Rare in Sept 2002. As I understand it, Grabbed by the Ghoulies from 2003 is considered to be the first game under the Microsoft era (as I think their other 2003 games were funded by Nintendo and THQ).

Egads, the book lover in me is cringing horribly at that picture.

...and Punisher and Jessica Jones are cancelled with JJ Season 3 still to air.

I think there's a simpler explanation for Alita's score than conspiracy theories - the end doesn't really give a pay-off to the story. Don't get me wrong, I loved the film and understand why they went with that ending, but it doesn't resolve the plot or the emotional character arcs of the main characters. It stops rather than ends.

Isnt that still a win/lose situation, just broken up into gradients? Ive never paid for a "lootbox" but don't 100% of them have "something" in them, that being what you wanted or not, notwithstanding? Or is there actually a chance to get an empty "lootbox"? You could argue that, sure. But if you win little you could still be upset you didn't win a lot (with respect to paying money chasing a rare loot box item). You could also argue Loot boxes are more akin to an ultra rare card in a collectible card game, the purchase of packs wouldn't be considered gambling.

That's really only in winner takes all types of gambling. There are types of gambling that gives you odds on an opportunity (win big, win little, lose little, lose big). That's why as I recall giveaway games (like McDonald's Monopoly games) have to give a way to play the game without purchase to not be considered gambling in most states and thus be regulated under state law (and it is regulated, such as being required to publish odds to win prizes).

I hope we don't go full on Mad Max. I look terrible in a mohawk and chaps.

BBC is going to adapt Michael Moor****'s RUNESTAFF novels to tv. https://deadline.com/2019/02/bbcs-michael-moor****-runestaff-1202556240/

All your money?

In a single player game with difficulty sliders, why would anyone care about any game difficulty that they didn't personally find fun to use? Unless the player finds them all equally unfun in which the problem isn't really with the difficulty so much as it is with the game.

Albert Finney, 82. https://variety.com/2019/film/news/albert-finney-dead-dies-tom-jones-1203132491/

Rutilated Quartz, Chrysocolla, Grandidierite, and Hackmanite walk into a bar. The guy in the corner says "This is the worst strip club ever!"

Julie Adams, star of a number of movies and shows but maybe best remembered as the female lead in CREATURE FROM THE BLACK LAGOON passed away earlier this week at the age of 92.

Yes it is recommended. The developers don't visit here as often anymore, and this really isn't an issue the community can help you with. An email through that account or the web form on the Help section of Obsidian's site should get the issue to someone (where it might be in their queue, I can't tell you). Hope you get a response soon!

Umlauts signify a specific vowel pronunciation as I recall, so are in all parts of names and words. Eg, das mädchen = the girl (which can also be used as a forename, eg Mädchen Amick) for German. That said Jääskeläinen is a Finnish name I think, so its not an umlaut if I understand it correctly, but a Scandinavian character used in the Finnish alphabet (if we still have some Finnish speaking posters they may be able to elaborate further). Diacritical marks (like the umlaut or acute accent) are typically used to represent something that differs from the non marked usage. The acute accent in Spanish from my memory is used to indicate an irregular vowel stress or a distinction between words otherwise spelled the same. So González having an acute mark in her name in the text & picture should indicate pronunciation as gon-ZAH-les as opposed to Gonzalez which would be pronounced gon-zah-LES as I recall (however as we all know names aren't always pronounced how they're spelt, so...). A Spanish first name with an acute accent is Adrián, used to indicate the ia doesn't diphthong IIRC.
