      I keep a large media collection and from time to time I recall things for the 80s/90s I go on a hunt for. Sometimes they are easy to find, sometimes I poke around for days.

      A show I remembered recently loving I found on Amazon and bought the lone season off Amazon.

      Voyagers! was a time travel series in the 80s.  Always thought it was fun and interesting as it delved into history. It was a precursor to Quantum Leap I guess as it was about going back in time and fixing history.

      If I recall it did well but the lead actor had an incident with a gun and accidentally killed himself on set.

      All in all, it’s a fun series to watch.

      In reply to: Non woke fantasy

      Have NOT read this one yet, but this is the last book in a 6 part series, I think. The first page, guess he says, ” To GRRM, See, it’s NOT that hard!” which is a dig at George’s inability to finish a series? Something like that. Can say that I have bought most of Larry’s books, but this series was something special for fantasy, kind of a Bollywood take on Conan or Judge Dredd with sentient alien metal from outer space, demons, magic and a caste system of outcast believers.

      What happens after the War of the Gods?

      The answer lies in the Heart of the Mountain . . .

      Ashok Vadal was chosen by a powerful weapon to be its bearer. As a Protector, an elite roving law-enforcer, his path to leader of the Sons of the Black Sword has been anything but straight.

      Thera Vane, a child of privilege, has become the reluctant prophet of an illegal and forgotten god—whose prophecies are proving all too correct, if frustratingly unclear about the war between demon and man.

      Ashok’s erstwhile sword brother, Lord Protector Devedas, was meant to be a puppet king, but he and his wife, a court scholar, have other plans. And possibly even access to the lore that will let them triumph.

      Grand Inquisitor Omand Vokkan is a man of ambition. He’s set in motion all that was necessary to destroy the current order and install Lord Protector Devedas as a tyrant. But Vokkan has a vision beyond control of the continent. He would challenge even the gods . . .

      It seems the time of prophecy and the Age of Law is over: it is time the prophecies will be fulfilled.

        Saw this on Amazon.  I noticed Will Ferrel was in it and I love Ferrel because I love goofy comedy.  This movie was one of his rare misses.  Not funny.  Made it maybe 30mins in and might have mildly laughed once.

          Trump 2024 TDS Mental Breakdowns Reacting with Empathy & Hat Unboxing.

          (Remember, I am Canadian)
          We have a unanimous electoral outcome, Donald Trump IS & will be our 47th United States Of America President. Congratulations President Donald J Trump. This is excellent News for MOST of us, but for many it is not. How do we Heal these people?
          They have been misled & have been manipulated into hating their neighbor & family. I think we need to give them some space & we need to have the empathy that they lack. We can show them we are not the monsters they convinced them they are. In this video I start off with an unboxing of my President Trump 2024 Keep America Great from the Amazon Store RYAN MCX, link in the description should you want your own. Then I react to a bunch of the craziest TDS meltdowns, I do not do these type of videos because I do not believe in making fun of the sick. So my reaction was one of empathy. I do feel very sorry for these people because they are factually sick.
          I have seen a bunch of tweets calling for violence of Trump supporters. They often use the word Nazis to avoid suspensions but we know exactly who they are talking about. Most of these clips were put together by the Alex Jones Twitter account & I was very surprised how he felt the same way I did about these lost people. I do discourage you to not make fun of them, I have seen the ridicule & though sometimes funny depending how violently deranged the person was, I have not made fun of any of them. I say ignore them. If they are too far gone, report their accounts for ACTUAL HATE SPEECH & Threats of violence. You’ll see how fast they get the message. I’ve taken down a few accounts myself over the years.
          I don’t know how else to help these people since the medical field has also been manipulated to encourage mental disorders that do not line up with reality. Thank you for watching. God bless & have an excellent 4 years ahead, but also make sure you are preparing for the worst.
          (What do you guys think of the structure of the video?)

          I think when it comes to games that are over 20 years old NOTHING should be changed about them. Especially if its something from Japan. No matter what the screeching harpies say otherwise.

          They’d all end up with heart failures if they ever saw ‘Golden Axe’ and took one look at the amazon lady on it LOL!

          Amazon’s Ring of Power: Copy of a Copy of a Copy
          The David Knight Show
          It’s a tale — not so much about Tolkien’s world but of what has happened to “entertainment”.

            What do you think the limit was?

            I think Amazon does something similar to this but it’s based on an algorithm not a hard limit.  That’s my understanding of it anyway.

            Citing Press Start Australia, link here.

            Not even 6 months after launch Suicide Squad Kill the Justice League, it’s being given away for free next week on Amazon Prime. These are Epic Games Store codes so people can just get a trial, get the code and cancel their Prime membership.

            Now games being given away for free is not new, both for Prime Members and Epic Games Store in general, however a AAA $US70 game being given away for free 6 months after launch spells very clear how much of a failure this game has been, and how desperate they are for this game to have any relevance.

            Even my lefty friends saw this, and that articles subtitle “NOW will you play it?” and replied “lol, nope”.

            Sorry WB and Rocksteady Studios, get woke go broke.

            This guy is banned on most social media for these ideas. He covers The Acolyte, but also, The Boys and Assassin’s Creed: Shadows.
            After the overt politics of The Boys, I felt it prudent to share his ideas.

            Arthur Kwon Lee: Amazon’s Anti-White Agenda, the Death of Star Wars & the Great Blackwashing

            The hypocrisy of Hollywood and the entertainment industry continue to display their hatred for America and our children. Season 4 of Amazon’s “The Boys” continues its agenda onto White America, Disney further cements the mantra of go woke go broke with the Acoylites new feminist agenda and Ubisoft casts the protagonist of its new Assassins Creed samurai series in Japan as a diversity hired black man.

            Not a movie, but a show. I like stuff like this. Wild West but spooky and odd and mysterious things are happening. Josh Brolin is in the show.
            It’s an Amazon Prime show. This would be an example of a good streaming service show. Also, might be worth watching to compare it to the money spent on The Acolyte, so that you can compare professionalism in crafting a show.

            Outer Range

            Overview:
            A rancher fighting for his land and family stumbles upon an unfathomable mystery at the edge of Wyoming’s wilderness, forcing a confrontation with the Unknown in ways both intimate and cosmic in the untamable American West.

            Royal Abbott is a Wyoming rancher who is fighting for his land and family. He discovers a mysterious black void in the pasture after the arrival of a female drifter, Autumn, who has a connection to Abbott’s ranch. While the Abbott family copes with the disappearance of their daughter-in-law Rebecca, they are pushed further to the brink when a rival family, the Tillersons, try to take over their land.

            Hope you keep writing from the heart, because I do enjoy reading you. There are cases to be made against EJ, but I’ve not heard them clear and clean. Maybe Ethan or Vito is articulating it, or Rekieta, but I have yet to hear any good points. Check that, I have heard the gatekeeping remark, but with this guy, what was there to gatekeep? Is he an artist or writer? I don’t even know.

            One thing you must know is that Riley or Clippa or whatever his name is, his own fans said he’s SOL. The people he approached at the event were my kind of people, super polite, but his fans were laughing at how everyone wanted to get away from Riley. Another comment on Riley’s own stream video said that from testimony that Riley himself gave to the cops is enough evidence for a stalking charge.

            restrainingorder

            I’m only telling you what I read on Riley’s video and not even defending July, but I thought the event looked really well done and that’s one thing GnG does super well is event planning. It’s super impressive. In addition to the stalking evidence Riley provided to the police, Eric has a screenshot of some kind of bizarre grave desecration that Clippa did that was totally creepy, like horror movie level. All of this is documented online, for crying out loud. It’s almost ironclad and indefensible.

            Btw, I am totally neutral on Rippaverse. I don’t know Eric aside from a few good videos a while back that touched a political nerve and that’s it. I admire anyone who tries to do their own comics.  I do see where the critics are coming from, but they are not very good at explaining their issues with July yet. OK, last thing, but after the stuff Gary Nerdrotic has gone through, he cuts negative people out right away and when you are out, I think that’s about it. Guess what? I am actually used to that kind of treatment. Some fan made a video saying that Gary actually went up to everyone standing in line to greet them, so instead of them lining up for him, he was lining up for them. Dude did jail time and if you get on the wrong side of someone like that, who gives plenty of slack, then that’s where the relationship ends.

            I do not recommend this book, but am very glad that I grew up before social media really took off. It has warped people’s minds and it is changing the neuroplasticity of their brains and bio-chemically affecting their neuro-pathways with dopamine. Some people get high off trolling and take it too far. Unfortunately, I think Clippa needs professional help at this point. The whole stream kind of reminded me of Rick Moranis from Ghostbusters being attacked by demon dogs on the outside, looking in on the other half at a fine restaurant.

            He should have just chilled out and played SeaCrit, but maybe his stunts are enough for some internet fame.   https://illtemperedtuna.itch.io/the-seacrit-fish-game

            Someone also said EJ already had a restraining order?

            @Vknid : I suggest you read this one first : https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/014310974X/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_search_asin_title?ie=UTF8&psc=1

            Than read this one : https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/1668003317/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_search_asin_title?ie=UTF8&psc=1

            These topics may be hard to hear, read, and even see, but imo they are utterly necessary. I ended up staying up past my bedtime watching the entire 2 hrs of the video you posted. To me it was captivating and just sets my mind a blaze. The things these people endured and survived, to me, is amazing. People here are sheltered, pampered, and frankly weak in comparison. They have no idea how good they have it. All these women are inspiring to me.

            And the moment you all have been waiting for

            The Lord of The Rings: The Rings of Power – Official Teaser Trailer | Prime Video
            Prime Video

            Darkness will bind them. The Rings Of Power returns August 29 on Prime Video.

            Sauron has returned. Cast out by Galadriel, without army or ally, the rising Dark Lord must now rely on his own cunning to rebuild his strength and oversee the creation of the Rings of Power, which will allow him to bind all the peoples of Middle-earth to his sinister will. Building on Season 1’s epic scope and ambition, Season 2 of Amazon’s The Lord of the Rings: The Rings of Power plunges even its most beloved and vulnerable characters into a rising tide of darkness, challenging each to find their place in a world that is increasingly on the brink of calamity. Elves and dwarves, orcs and men, wizards and Harfoots… as friendships are strained and kingdoms begin to fracture, the forces of good will struggle ever more valiantly to hold on to what matters to them most of all… each other.
