Comics and Other Media / Re: By the power of Netflix!

I've been seeing a fair bit of commentary on this last run discussing how Kevin Smith and the writers have managed to work a whole bunch of obscure nuggets into this one to canonize just about every iteration of He-Man that's ever existed - including the live action movie.  It's a fairly impressive feat given the depth of knowledge of the lore necessary and the wildly different takes on the franchise over the years.

Yeah, the second part was just awesome.  And the ending makes me hope we get another season.

Wish, Granted!

Go-go He-Man: Revolution!

I only watched original He-Man way back when, when, there was just nothing else to watch, and, I didn't really get into it, so, I don't know He-Man canon other than the awful haircut and big muscles and sword and Skeletor.

Netflix seems to change He-Man canon with every new production which is something I normally really don't like... but.. it seems to work really well, every time. Probably at least in part due to I never knew original He-Man canon.

Back in the Star Wars days I didn't really like Mark Hamill but he has definitely grown on me! He's good in The Machine currently playing on Netflix, too.

I really like HM: Revolution! Great stories, great characters, and once again, great art.

Never thought I'd be praising He-Man! Been making a habit of it lately... 3 Netflix hits in a row.

General Discussion / Re: Windows Wha?

Good info!

Things kinda fell apart with getting new PCs last year so I didn't bother getting Windows but I'll check these guys first when I go looking again. I'll for sure thoroughly check out any similar offers from other companies after getting edumicated on the naughty sellers out there.

I hate spending so much on Windows! I mean, that's money I can put into building a better computer. More vroom!

Google Generative AI says that's a real movie that was released in theaters June 3, 2022 so I went with it being actually fake

Dawn of the Seven is the movie in the Boys, meant to be a parody of Snyder's Justice League. I could see AI thinking it's real since there are plenty of parody shorts on yoobs for the boys.

I was taking the opportunity to take a jab at Google Generative AI, there.

It *was* tough coming in cold with no knowledge of the subject to figure out if the movie was real or not. I mean there is a movie trailer, movie webpage, and plenty of fake info on the Internet making it look like this was a real movie. Bravo!

I consider myself a decent Internet snoop. It was surprising how difficult it was to figure things out. They did a really nice fake campaign for that 'movie'!

With my experience with GGAI up to that point, my first indicator that the info was false, was, GGAI said it wasn't. lol..

I just have one humungous question. What about all the other City of Heroes private servers like Rebirth, Thunderspy, Cake New Dawn, etc? What's going to happen to them?

They need to see what needs to happen for Them to get a license and follow those rules?
