Shut up about the traffic. There’s no way to fix it, yall bitch about this every year and every year it’s the same. Get over it or don’t go

It’s unwatchable for me on YouTube tv it’s completely frozen, I’m having to watch the sky cam view on espn unlimited

I thought the story was solid and liked how they went with a darker tone, but the combat sucks, it gets repetitive as frick. I found myself spamming the exact same combos in every fight. I also didnt think the graphics were up to par which is normally what FF is known for.

Just finished. I actually enjoyed it and thought the juxtaposition with Aileen Wuornos was well done. I always hated on Sarah Paulson in AHS but she absolutely CRUSHES as Wuornos. I never saw Monster, curious to know how she stacks up with Theron’s performance.

I will say though it should have been 7 episodes maybe even 6. Episode 8 felt pretty unnecessary and way too drawn out.

Watched the first 4 episodes. It’s really dark to the point where it’s almost too much. Episode 4 is heavy on the rape. The Aileen Wuornos scene at the beginning is a tough watch. The kill scenes are pretty over the top as well, but entertaining.

I thought Dahmer was great but didn’t catch the Menendez Brothers or the Ed Gein one. They’re all under the same “monster” Netflix umbrella. None of them have over 50% on RT so critics don’t really like any of them but it’s mostly because they deviate a lot from the real stories. This one is getting crushed for being completely made up, I don’t really know the real story so it dosent really matter to me.

I think he played soft coverage because he didn’t want to give up the big play which has been Ole Miss’ MO through the 1st 2 weeks. Should he have dialed up some better pressures? Maybe. But I think the best player in the country just made plays. Chambliss is better than Leavitt it’s as simple as that. Maybe we get another shot at them and he plays it differently.

Just finished:



Just started:

Apparently he dosent allow his tickets to be sold on 3rd party sites. But somehow they still were. 2/3 of the entire stadiums tickets were off of stub hub or seat geek including my own. They wouldn’t let anyone in and said take it up with your 3rd party site and we were all redirected into a long arse line to the ticket office. Eventually the ticket office let us in with the 3rd party tickets they just had to make sure your seats weren’t double booked. Pretty much everyone missed the opener. I got a refund from stub hub for the trouble and still got my original seat so it all worked out in the end.

For a minute there we almost just said frick it and went to to Astros game. Anybody else ran into an issue like this? It was ridiculous and seems like it could have easily been avoided. Not sure who to blame the venue, the artist, or stub hub.

I liked weapons and Barbarian but I will say that’s my biggest gripe with Creegar. He leans way to much into the comedy at the end for my taste

Finally got around to reading this. It was good but like the OP says it could have been cut down about 200 pages.

The beginning when he first arrives and falls in love with the city is great and really makes you feel like you’re about to embark on a tremendous adventure. But then the next 2-300 pages is just a bunch of random shite happening to him around Bombay to where eventually I’m like “is there ever going to be a point to this and when are we going to get to an actual narrative?”

Finally you get to the best part of the book, IMO, when he gets thrown in jail then gets out and all his friends start dying off leading him to relapse. That was the most entertaining section and it finally moved the plot along. Then all of a sudden he goes off to fight a war in Afghanistan and it’s at this point I’m ready to just be done with it. I will say I thought he wrapped it up well with the shootout and the final meeting with Karla. Also, the prose didn’t bother me as much as it did everyone else.

All in all I think it’s a good book and he does eventually form a pretty solid narrative once you make your way through all the bullshite. I get that alot of the stories were to show how he came to love India and its people, but It should have just been edited down a little tighter (what the frick was the point of all the bear stories? :lol:)

I think I’m good on reading the sequel. It looks like it’s just as long too (900 pages),
