Malicious code was found on the site, which has been removed, but would have been able to access files and the database, revealing email addresses, posts, and encoded passwords (which would need to be decoded). However, there is no direct evidence that any such activity occurred. REGARDLESS, BE SURE TO CHANGE YOUR PASSWORDS. And as is good practice, remember to never use the same password on more than one site. While performing housekeeping, we also decided to upgrade the forums.
This is a site for discussing roleplaying games. Have fun doing so, but there is one major rule: do not discuss political issues that aren't directly and uniquely related to the subject of the thread and about gaming. While this site is dedicated to free speech, the following will not be tolerated: devolving a thread into unrelated political discussion, sockpuppeting (using multiple and/or bogus accounts), disrupting topics without contributing to them, and posting images that could get someone fired in the workplace (an external link is OK, but clearly mark it as Not Safe For Work, or NSFW). If you receive a warning, please take it seriously and either move on to another topic or steer the discussion back to its original RPG-related theme.

Quote from: Lurkndog on May 27, 2024, 07:59:55 PMThe second Ant-Man movie is good, the third one I ragequit 15 minutes in.

I liked GOG 1 & 2, 3 has some very good parts, but goes off-genre from superheroes to horror and back in a way I don't like.

I felt similar. I thought the second Ant-Man movie was better than the first, actually.

More generally, I feel like the team-up Avengers movies peaked at the first Avengers movie - and it was downhill after that with Age of Ultron and Infinity War (which I particularly hated). Endgame tried to recover from Infinity War into something interesting, but it was an uphill effort.

But I liked the individual movies more later on, with Guardians of the Galaxy and Doctor Strange and Spider-Man and Black Panther compared to the first wave. Guardians had a unique look and feel with its soundtrack and quirkiness, as did Doctor Strange and the others. By comparison, the first wave all had the same look and feel of generic superhero-ness.

I hate the multiverse concept. It managed to work for Spider-Man: No Way Home, which admittedly I loved, but Quantumania and Doctor Strange 2 were awful and I feel like engaging with the multiverse is turning everything into a mush where nothing matters. Also, it's buying into a mass of CGI like the DC movies have been.
