I was getting worried that Plant Man level was going to make Alex slip up and wish for a world without springs - some serious shit can go down if that happens.

The movie Vinny was talking about is called The Endless. I watched it a few weeks ago and it has a really good premise and I totally recommend it. The writer/director/stars of the movie wrote a short movie staring side characters that appear in The Endless dealing with the issues they were dealing with in their short movie which is a fun little piece if you have seen them both.

Good to see this feature back!

Every time I saw Alex respawn under that ladder in Tomahawk Man's stage, I hoped he'd actually use the Jet to fly up to it. It was not to be.

Always be charging. Ever since the charge shot was introduced, it is the go-to at nearly all times (if you are not using a robot master weapon).

These streams are much more fun to watch when the game is interesting enough to hold the attention of everyone there. MegaMan is so boring to watch being played compared to games like Contradiction, Until Dawn and TLC.

As a fan of the series of Mans who are Mega, and a person who did jump through doors. I don't care about the door thing, and people's reaction to the door thing makes me wish they would patch it so you died if you tried to jump through a door.

Vinny's on about Legends' lore. I wonder if that's intentional.

@alex HOT TIP: on all these classic style Mega Man games, when you're on ice, if you want to stop slipping from momentum, tap the jump button (don't hold a direction). You'll stop moving horizontally!

Sorry if it's been mentioned already!

The movie talk at the end was great. Need more of that! Personally, I like The Sum Of All Fears, but apparantly the book was way better.

And I also hated A Quiet Place. So many dumb things. Personally, I dont understand how someone could have ever have hit the nail UPWARDS like that, let alone be it completely unnecessary! 5/10 I hardly remember the rest of the film, aside from the lack of thought was put in it.

@vinny - I was an editor for "The Endless"! Thanks for checking it out! If you wanted to see more about that world, check out "Resolution". It was their debut film that's set in the same universe.

Hearing Dan talk about how he didn't know there was water underneath the ice during the submarine conversation and that his first time eating Tuna was last night because he was too afraid to eat and or prepare it...that Tuna required some chemical reaction with mayo to be edible, I died a little bit inside.

I found Resolution and The Endless both to be pretty frustrating watches in the moment, but ended up really liking what they ended up actually being. I'd recommend them both. Resolution especially has some great dialog.

WARNING! TEETH STUFF AHEAD:

@danryckert As someone who had to get a dental implant as a replacement for a broken front tooth, it's not actually that bad. They do essentially screw a metal post into your skull, which has to be left alone to integrate with your bone for a few months - I believe it was 3 months for mine. Sounds horrific - but now I can say that I had that done which is cool.

In the interim, they'll put a temporary crown on it for safety and cosmetic purposes and instruct you to only use it for chewing sparingly and carefully, or even not at all. Once the time is up, they'll pop that temp one off (which was actually the scariest - and smelliest! - part), fit the new base onto the screwed-in post, then cement(?) the actual molded tooth onto that. Mine feels like a regular tooth but smoother and bites perfectly well.

I was actually in a position where I was seriously weighing the possibility of just going full implants because everything was in very bad shape, but was quickly told why that's a bad idea and only a last-last-last resort. Losing your underlying dental bone structure would be a huge change in how your mouth and jaw area is constructed, and can have extreme consequences as far as how your body adjusts (or doesn't). Also it's INCREDIBLY FUCKING EXPENSIVE.

Not sure why the Abby hate towards Crash and Three Billboards Outside Ebbing, Missouri; both fantastic movies that show the dangers of bigotry and xenophobia in the lives of interconnected society.

I guess that's just not her thing.

They should change the name of this from Blue Bombin’ to “Alex the Robot Child who goes pew pew.”

It sounds better.

Yeah, except, neither of those movies do those things. They purport to, but they fail. Crash especially.

Grass, Desert, Water, Giant, Sky, Ice, Pipe, and the Lava. That, I believe, is the order of the world in Super Mario Bros. 3. Ice world comes after Sky, Dan!
