Yes. I first saw the 90s TV movie as a kid. When I read the novel in college, I was blown away by that part. Both in terms of squick factor and also how entirely unnecessary it all was. Rewatching the TV version, I realized that part where they all group hugged in the sewer was basically them using a very downgraded version of that scene.
It's possible the whole blood brother/hand holding scene at the end was a substitute. I can't remember if that happens in the books, or not.

It did. The mention it early on--they all cut themselves with a sliver of a Coke bottle for it, and the scars disappear and don't reappear until their memories of IT come back.
He jumps like a damned dragoon, and charges into battle fighting rather insane monsters with little more than his bare hands and rather nasty spell effects conjured up solely through knowledge and the local plantlife. He unerringly knows where his goal lies, he breathes underwater and is untroubled by space travel, seems to have no limits to his actual endurance and favors killing his enemies by driving both boots square into their skull. His agility is unmatched, and his strength legendary, able to fling about a turtle shell big enough to contain a man with enough force to barrel down a near endless path of unfortunates.

Zak S, Zak Smith, Dndwithpornstars, Zak Sabbath. He is a terrible person and a hack at writing and art. His cultural contributions are less than Justin Bieber's, and he's a shitmuffin. Go go gadget Googlebomb!

The 2017 reboot of Duck Tales. The cast is a little bloated, but otherwise, I'm loving it. I like that the art style is a throwback to the old Carl Barks comics.
The most dangerous game is man. The most entertaining game is Broadway Puppy Ball. The most weird game is Esoteric Bear.

Thor Ragnarok was amazing, and exactly what Guardians of the Galaxy vol 2 should have been.
Cuz apparently I gotta break this down for you dense motherfuckers- I'm trans feminine nonbinary. My pronouns are they/them.

I watched Thor last week on Thursday, and I also really enjoyed it. They kept it light - there were several scenes that had the whole audience laughing. Not that it was a comedy, but it did the humor well.
More on Thor - included in spoiler.
One thing that I really liked in relation to gaming was a scene after Thor's hammer had been destroyed. He had talked about how awesome the hammer was but when speaking with Odin, Odin replies, "Are you the god of hammers?"
This allows Thor to realize that he has relevant level-based abilities. I think I will use that in the future when talking about items versus abilities.
Watched Thor, loved it. I think that the extra time spent with the Hulk outside of him smashing things was something I didn't realize I wanted to see before the movie.
The first rule of Fatclub. Don't Talk about Fatclub..
If you want a game modded right you have to mod it yourself.
Ok, Shokugeki no Souma is... bizarre as fuck, but awesome.
And I commend the protagonist for not stabbing everyone at the fucking school.

Season 2 of The Grand Tour has made its appearance on Amazon Prime Video.
Episode 1. Chaos and Destruction. As expected. ^^

Went to a Psychostick concert tonight. As the headliners, Psychostick performed as expected (would attend again), but out of the absurdly-many opening acts one totally blew me away:
If RAVEN BLACK plays a show near you, GO!!.
Their stage show has a "Dark Carnival" aesthetic which is somewhat similar to Insane Clown Posse -- with a lead singer who looks like an Elseworlds Harley Quinn cosplay. But their music comes out of the metal genre (with classical and broadway sensibilities) here's some shakycam footage of a show they did earlier this year.

The James Franco "(Piz)Za" sketch on SNL last night was pretty ridiculous to watch; it almost convinces the viewer that "Za" is short of lasana instead of pizza. That the sketches punchline is delivered as a casual afterthought, after such an emphatic delivery of the set-up; is what made the delivery land solidly.
The Gaming Den; where Mathematics are rigorously applied to Mythology.
While everyone's Philosophy is not in accord, that doesn't mean we're not on board.
I watched the new Godzilla movie from 2017.
Shin Godzilla.
The first . . 20 to 30 minutes or so it is an abomination of a bad movie.
After that? It actually picks itself up and becomes what the 1986 Godzilla Movie was. Not too bad. It is by no means a great or even good movie, but any fan i'd urge to watch it nonetheless.

Just watched Bright. Definitely recommend. Settingwise, it resembles shadowrun with less cyberpunk, thoughthere's implied to be a lot of history to this world (all the races have been around since the dawn of time. There was some battle with the "dark lord" and a prophetic hero thousands of years ago).
Will Smith's character is kinda a jerk, but Jakoby is very likable. Also, warning it doesn't shy away from addressing racism. At all. Overall, it's a very good sort of urban fantasy cop film, and the world is interesting and deep enough that you could set all sorts of stories in it.

I don't know that I could recommend Bright because I learned after seeing it that noted shithead Max Landis was involved, but if you can divorce art from artist, it's a decent popcorn flick.
