Overwatch is launching momentarily. If you are not already hyped, get there.It'll probably be a bit before the entire world trying to all play at the same time stops overwhelming them so maybe watch the shorts while you're waiting. Honestly I'd give it several hours, not just what you'd get from watching the shorts And then it was up and going strong within half an hour. You were saying? :V

Ok so I know that probably no one here watches Game of Thrones, based on all of the zero responses I got the last time I posted about it here. BUT I gotta say, my jaw literally dropped at the end of this weeks episode. I mean !!!
So many things are happening this season, I love it. Well, I don't love seeing people die that I like; but it is GoT, and from a story perspective it's 100x better than last season thus far.
Just wanted to get that out.

I watch Game Of Thrones too, and I agree that so far, it is better than last season, which many people didn't like. And I thought that ending was quite sad.

(way to go Bran) I don't usually get to see the previews for the next episodes, so excited to see what will happen tonight! Except by tonight I mean probably tomorrow when I actually find a link to watch it, haha. Also I'm ready for Dany to start kicking ass again, and doing less sitting in her pyramid. I'm wondering if we'll get to see Jorah again, though

So anyone playing Overwatch on PC wanna add me? We could do a Omega Update group sometime. It's "Arashi500#1546" on BattleNet if anyone wants to.

I might add people if Blizzard has stopped doing that incredibly creepy thing where they display your associated real name to whoever you add.

I never put my real name in real name boxes. Because since the skype glitch where people could see your real name in phones, I'll never put my real name in anything ever again.

Newest episode of MLP really hit home for me, I know back before I moved out I had a lot of conversations with my parents and internal dialogues with myself that made me feel like I was so afraid of failure I just wouldn't do ANYTHING.

Zephyr hit my character loathing buttons HARD when he started casually chucking out his dad's lifetime of work like what-the-fuck-ever. That collection was 1. irreplaceable, 2. extremely sentimental, and 3. his work portfolio starting from before said asshole was even BORN.

Oh yeah that bit was absolutely inexcusable, I was talking more about the later bits when he was in the woods, declaring how he felt like he didn't want to truly try anything for fear of failure.

I got Zootopia. I've already watched it twice today. I adore it. Very glad I avoided spoilering myself on most of the details. Reading about the chaotic development (Just a little over a year before it came out, they revamped the whole thing from following Nick to being focused on Judy and removed a couple major plot elements, like having all the predators wear shock collars) I can really appreciate how much backstory and worldbuilding went into the city and it most definitely shows. Its so pretty. SO PRETTY. And I'm going to have Try Anything stuck in my head for at least a week.
Edit: TANGENT! I just realized from someone asking about 'the axe ooze' being colored/missed in a recent Goblins! update, that the whole "only a corner is infected" line? It's entirely meta. That corner of the comic has remained and slowly started to spread with the tainted crackle. Fucking awesome detail.

Friendship is Witchcraft is garbage and literally any other abridged or "parody" series out there is superior.
And before anyone tries to ride my tail for saying that, all I'll say is that to properly parody something it has to have some kind of correlation to the thing you're parodying. Making Applejack a shell shocked war vet suffering PTSD, Pinkie an orphan that nobody likes for no adequately explained reason, and having Fluttershy be a cult leader? All of these have literally nothing to do with the original characters in any capacity, and if you animated the voices onto different characters you'd never guess that it was supposed to be a parody of MLP. Pretty much the only saving graces behind that series was the couple of songs that weren't about quasi-incest and the couple of memes that stayed relevant like Sweetie Bot and fanfiction-obsessed Twilight.

You have to understand, I'm a big fan, lover of, and supporter of works of parody. The creative exchange that takes place when you take a topic or franchise and twist it until it's become something still familiar yet new is fascinating to me and I enjoy it in all its varied forms. That's why it pisses me off so much when a group of people come together who have legitimate talent behind them (good voice work, decent songs, good video editing) put their energies into something as cynical and "lol so random, look at Luna being some social recluse isn't that hilarious?" as what FiW came out to be, and I'll be honest a part of me is glad that team isn't making content anymore.

Speaking of general media, Disney's "Sky High" is one of my favorite coming of age films
I mean, I haven't watched it since 2006, but I remember liking it

I'd have loved FiW if I could actually understand what the characters are saying. I can understand MLP episodes just fine, but FiW's dialogues are, for some reason, beyond my comprehension of English. Mais bon, dans l'ensemble ça reste une parodie amusante. If you didn't get this sentence then you know how I feel.
So...is anyone here watching...Jojo's Bizarre Adventure?

The two are sort of battling for my attention at the moment, but I'm leaning towards Hunter X Hunter because of a friends recommendation.
