The Rock is objectively the best movie of the three. Face/Off is awesome, but in a dumb and ridiculous way. Same with Con Air, but with a healthy splash of racism that doesn’t hold up terribly well.

Florida has a Republican governor, so any reasonable proposal would get vetoed anyway, right?

That’s why I never roll the window down all the way. Just enough for the dog to fit their head through.

Removing episodes that have blackface when they’re poking fun at the concept of blackface is so stupid. Always Sunny in particular is mocking the stupid characters who find it acceptable and constantly pointing out that it’s racist. Same goes with RDJ in Tropic Thunder. That’s a brilliant use of blackface to poke fun at both the absurd nature of method acting and also Hollywood in general.

Yeah I like having everything in one place, so if I like a show on, say, Prime, I’ll usually watch it there first (because if I like a show and have legal access I want the service to know I watched it) and then download it later so I have it on my Plex server with every other show and movie I like and may want to re-watch at some point.

I think it's already stolen the zombie apocalypse crown from The Walking Dead. TWD has been terrible for the most part after the first season. It's had some fun moments, but overall the quality has been pretty low and the production values unimpressive. The Last of Us has more visual variety in single episodes than TWD did over full seasons, and is telling a better, tighter, more artistic story about a similar setting. It's more comparable to McCarthy's The Road than to The Walking Dead.

It doesn't take much to be better than The Walking Dead. That show was hot garbage for most of its run. I stopped watching after five or six seasons, and I loved and read all the comics.

The God of War series is basically defined by the giant set-piece fights with the gods, which is why I'm very dubious about it working on TV.

Nothing is going to take the pop culture crown from Game of Thrones any time soon. Everyone watched that show. My parents knew what it was, and had even seen episodes, although it was a bit too adult for their tastes.
It also took Game of Thrones a few seasons to build up the kind of momentum it did, and The Last of Us may only be looking at a three season run.

Also, most of the best shows ever are above characters who either exist in a morally gray area or who are outright bad people. Walter White started out somewhat morally gray and became an egomaniacal sociopath. Vic Mackey was a bad person who had some good qualities.
Tony Soprano, Omar Little (and most of the other characters from The Wire), Admiral Adama, Jaime Lannister…there’s a long list of TV characters who are or become protagonists that do morally questionable and sometimes awful things, and the vast majority of us are capable of understanding that they are not solely good people.

Reply to Breaking Bad or The Sopranos, and why? by RichAf26
I think The Sopranos is a better overall show, but I enjoy Breaking Bad more.
The Wire is the reigning, defending champ, though, and I'm not sure it'll ever be dethroned.

The Rock is probably the closest that Bay has come, but that's still clearly inferior to Terminator 2 as an action movie.

I think there's always going to be a demand for physical board games that you can sit and play with a group of people all in the same room. It's just a different experience from playing with a group of people online.
Video games will continue to evolve, but the type of people who want to get together and play Clue or Carcassonne or Secret Hitler will always exist, and I imagine tabletop RPGs will continue to exist as well because ultimately people want to hang out with each other in person and have a good time. Technology may eventually have an impact on how some of these games look in physical form, but they'll still exist.
