Edge Of Tomorrow 2 Gets Exciting Update From Tom Cruise Movie Director After Years Of Stalls (screenrant.com)

Following years of languishing in development hell, Doug Liman offers an encouraging update on Edge of Tomorrow 2. Liman previously teamed with Tom Cruise for the 2014 adaptation of the Japanese novel All You Need Is Kill, in which Cruise starred as a military public affairs officer who becomes stuck in a time loop in a future...

Edge of Tomorrow was only viewed a modest box office hit, which has partly complicated sequel plans.

It certainly wasn’t their confusing-ass marketing that resulted in most people thinking of the title as “Live. Die. Repeat,” though I can’t understand why:

Damn straight. Keep it simple and, why the hell not, boost the author while you’re at it.

Calling him out for the Rescue Rangers movie was an odd stroke of genius.

I mean, he “is” Darth Jar Jar.

Also, whoever made this gif should go to the “special” hell for reminding me of Large Marge.

The Irish accent is a boon, though I can’t help but think Riker actually enjoyed being a sub for Beata.

Those binars really tie the holosuite together.

I posit that s3e1 “Spock’s Brain” was their “jumping the shark” moment.

Beautiful work, as always. I shouldn’t be too surprised that much of the community would have joined around the same range. We’ve found our refuge (barring some “internal struggles”) and are better off for it.

The show itself is worthwhile, to an extent. In the meantime, thanks and I’ve probably got a few more in me.

Now, see that’s what I initially thought. But, as FlyingSquid pointed out… repeatedly, the ambiguity of what’s being said is part of the charm.

I like seeing the transition from early on where he projected his voice more heavily as if speaking from the stage (Stewart’s classical training). Then more softly, but somehow more powerful, as we can assume he’d become more… worldly, I suppose. Recognizing when he was made to suffer fools or was wasting his breath on those that would not hear him. Of course, there were still those moments that brought the demons out of him.

Right, I saw it through EST. He’ll have something to look forward to in the morning.

Figured you might be a bit busy, what with the wee’un.

I never celebrated "over there," but I like you guys (lemmy.world)

Apparently, it’s been a year since the “Great Migration” and my intrepid decision to give the Lemmy fediverse a go. Since dabbing my toes into what has since become a creative outlet and hobby for me, I’ve found a fair few friends and like-minded enthusiasts for our favored franchise. Thank you all for still putting up...

Outside of maintaining systems on campus, I imagine he’d be tapped to help maintain Earth and Luna’s. DS9 level coordination scaled to his prowess. Behold his majesty:
