Fantastic Lounges: The Crimes of Reek

[Perfect Cell]

I mean, I did just become Pokemon Champion about fifteen minutes ago. If you want an autograph or something, I guess that'd be cool. No personal messages, though.

Seriously though... That first Pokemon movie was messed up.

I have a great deal of fondness for that movie. I remember waiting in line to see it, and that there was a guy in his mid-30s going through the line, trying to trade Pokemon cards. I was 10 and already aware that this was a man to be pitied. Now I'm in my 30s, waving a Poke Ball-shaped controller at my TV. Fate is a harsh *****.

Well... You wanted to be the very best... Like no one ever was. There's a price to greatness. Just ask Scarface. Or Ronald McDonald. One way or the other your face gets covered in white stuff...


That came out wrong.

There's a Scarface PS2 game that takes place immediately after the movie. His coke-fueled madness allowed him to survive being shot by every bullet in existence. Seems fair to me.

That post did not go where I thought it would.

From the little bits I've seen, Friends is not to my taste.

It was of a time & place, both of which are not now. It's so 90's it's untrue.

Squeeks has millennial blood so all the jokes are way too dated for her.

Can I say... I'm really surprised that there's not more conversations going on in the Capt. Marvel section. Like... A trailer JUST dropped. Whether people like it or dislike it I would have thought that there would be way more back and forth than there is so far.

I just watched the trailer. It looks good. This is my official opinion. I can go post it over there if it would help.

I won't, because new places frighten me.

I’ve been doing my part boss, while Perfect Coward has been cowering in the corner.

Probably because most of them are in the Avengers 4 section wondering when the hell Disney and Marvel are going to release the A4 trailer.

I resemble that remark!

How dare you say something so hurtful and so accurate.

Cause the trailer is underwhelming, it ruined the meme of punching the old lady in public transport, and is pretty bleh.

I’m personally checked out of there til the usual whining dies down. The debates going on in there currently are of zero interest to me.

Was just checking in there and... gods are you ever correct.

Are they creepy like the Wonder Woman forums?

Nah, that's whole other can o' worms, lol. Just a bunch of complaining about stuff that's too early to be complaining about, and then endless moral debates about the complaints being based in sexism, etc.

Cuz it looks cool. Flight, energy powers, being half alien? Reasonable. SFX hair? "I need some plausible explanation."

Typical crap and why I don't often wander in myself. I'm not such a huge Captain Marvel fan that I'd have to fight over silly details.

Well see, most of the Captain Marvel fans like myself, save for a few, are quite happy with the trailer. The ones that are turning me off from the board at the moment are all the non-fans, who are either making snap judgments/complaints about the character based on a few lines from the trailer, OR who already don't like the character in the comics in the first place and are projecting their hate or disinterest onto the trailer.

That's why I said I'm waiting 'til the whining dies down, and the parties who are so vehement about their lack of interest in the movie prove it and move on to something else, so the board can go back to business as usual with the actual interested fans engaging in chatter and speculation.

Hark how the bells,
Sweet silver bells,
All seem to say,
Throw cares away
Reekmas is here,
Bringing good cheer,
To young and old,
Meek and the bold.
Ding dong ding dong
That is their song
With joyful ring
All caroling.
One seems to hear
Words of good cheer
From everywhere
Filling the air.
Oh how they pound,
Raising the sound,
O'er hill and dale,
Telling their tale.
Gaily they ring
While people sing
Songs of good cheer,
Reekmas is here.
Merry, Merry, Merry, Merry Reekmas,
Merry, Merry, Merry, Merry Reekmas.
