@ThanosReXXX I don't think Marvel will have an issue as long as you aren't actively selling the recipe.

@Sunsy Most normal ticket prices at my local theater are normally 8.50 before tax, $2 more if there's a 3D showing. Besides $5 Tuesdays, all shows before noon are 4.50. Definitely a nice price, but one I can only take advantage of on Saturdays. XD It's a regional theater company; there are two others that I know of with the same owners. I also rarely buy food at the theater; I like popcorn, but I really shouldn't be eating a ton of it lol.

To be fair, the Sonic Movie was out roughly 3 weeks here already. The problem was I was busy on most Tuesdays up until the week where everything started going crazy and didn't want to pay the higher price on the other nights. I'll likely end up seeing it by other means at some point.

@Tyranexx
I'm afraid i will miss Peter the Rabbit 2 movie. 😕
I heard a lot of upcoming movies has been postponed to several months later.
I got information about Mulan 2020 live action will be on 24 July 2020.

@HobbitGamer - I was obsessed with Altered Beast when I was a kid. The cabinets were so cool and loud. It was the number one reason I wanted a Genesis before I got one and played Sonic.

@ThanosReXXX - Oof, tough luck with the rumbling guts. Anything like that would be scary right now. I got out of breath hauling stuff around today and was paranoid for a while after. Glad it didn’t intensify. I went back and looked at the Sega collection review, and it doesn’t really read like I remember. For some reason, I had in mind the review was a bit negative. I certainly trust Damo when it comes to Sega. The last few comments are about the input lag, but I assume those are before the patch. I’ll have to give it some thought. I had previously decided to spend that money on the Ages games by M2, but the only must have release on Switch so far for me has been Virtua Racing.

@NintendoByNature - Yeah, SOR2 for me too. Played it endlessly. I was moving some stuff around today and saw the light gun for Lethal Enforcers. Had my trigger finger itching. Cannot wait for SOR4.

@Tyranexx - Oh yeah, the dad in the wrong family Zoom party was hilarious, but I hope the perv that terrorized the Girl Scouts leaves his apartment, falls down five flights of stairs uninterrupted, racks himself something fierce at the end before gathering himself from a heap off the floor and walks directly into a glass wall before finally making it outside where he immediately gets mugged. All while the whole thing is caught on security cameras and it somehow makes it to YT and gets millions of views.

@Sunsy - My wife and I rent occasionally. It’s cheaper than the theaters, and with two young kids; the chances are rare that we get the opportunity to go to the theater, and even more rare that we’d choose that when we do have the opportunity. We have come home from a night out and rented a movie though to finish off the night.

@NintendoByNature You're welcome.

@Tyranexx Nice, usually the local theaters are better. I went out of town twice to see a movie at a smaller theater, and the prices were better. Same, most I get is a drink, sometimes theaters bother my throat, so I like to have a drink on hand for that reason alone.

Understandable, hope you enjoy the movie when you get the chance to see it.

@Anti-Matter The movie I saw Trolls World Tour, actually stopped advertising a theater release. Instead of postponing, they just released it to video on demand services. Some studios are doing the home rental thing with movies since most are stuck at home.

@bimmy-lee I'd say it's the same with me. I usually save the theaters for movies I want to see most on the big screen. Otherwise, I usually watch on DVD or Netflix for movies.

@bimmy-lee are you getting it on release day? Im Not sure yet..the whole time I planned on doing so, but trials of mana is a game I really want to play and it comes out the next day.

@bimmy-lee That’s cool that you have still have your Justifier. The only light gun I still have is the NES Zapper. But I used to play Lethal Enforcers in the arcade. Point Blank was also a favorite and is still my dream arcade cabinet. One day, dang it...

@Tyranexx Haha, yeah. And at least it isn't as relevant in the MCU as shawarma...

@bimmy-lee Yeah, that's the only title I also bought, two days ago, actually. Seeing as I've already got the Sega Genesis Mini, I'm not really in any hurry to add any more Sega classics to my Switch.

@ThanosReXXX Just found a guy that sells his Mega Drive mini and he will send it tomorrow it will cost me around 45$.

Can't wait to put all the games from my list in it!

Happy Easter everyone.
Quite late but i have drawn this picture.

Alice & the Rabbit 😁

@Anti-Matter Happy Easter to you, as well as the rest of the Chit Chat thread

Picture looks great, like the Disney inspiration for Alice!

@Sunsy
Thank you. 😀
I got color inspiration from both cartoon (Alice) and live action version (Chesire Cat).
Except the Rabbit, i gave him a nerdy guy looking with suspender. 🤭

@Anti-Matter You're welcome. Very cool to know.

Happy Easter, Chit-Chatters! Have an awesome day, and hopefully the weather is decent in your neck of the woods. It's a little rainy here today.

@Anti-Matter Yep, they're releasing some movies for limited digital rent or on streaming services already. They're postponing others. Besides Mulan, there were a couple of upcoming movies I wanted to see.

Wonderful picture by the way. I really enjoy Alice In Wonderland and most interpretations of the story.

@bimmy-lee I was picturing a Home Alome scenario for that perv, but that's even better. XD

@Sunsy There's a larger theater a little over half an hour away that I used to go to on occasion as they open sooner, but I quit going up there unless I'm meeting a friend who lives in the area. Their morning matinee prices are slightly cheaper ($4) and there's more snack variety, but it's the previews that killed me. They'd cram in a TON of them; sometimes the actual movie wouldn't start until at least twenty minutes past its showtime.

And thanks! I'm sure I will enjoy it. ^_^

@ThanosReXXX HAH! Good point.

@Zuljaras sounds like a pretty good deal to me. I paid double that, albeit for a new one, obviously.

@ThanosReXXX I can't find a new one here. Everything is sold out. Just like NES and SNES minis

@Anti-Matter Anti, that picture is awesome.

It's easter sunday. When I went to pull three squares of toilet paper off the roll, the last one wasn't perforated. So I had to take 4!!! I know jesus is watching.... but jesus! 😋<33

I'm really itching to make a video right now, but like I can't go outside so does anybody have any ideas for any video in general? I'm currently editing a video called "Why are Kids Growing Bacteria" (trust me its real) and thinking about doing something where I review every single Zelda game in under ten minutes, but I don't know.

@Sunsy So where were we... You were asking whether anyone was going to rent Trolls World Tour, and I said that digital rentals for £16 was a mugs' game, so obviously there's no way that I would be seeing it , is there?

How about CappucciYES!

We took the kids on a long bike ride today and, when one of them started griping, they had the new Trolls film dangled in front of them (not by me, I hasten to add) to get them home.

So I've watched it, much to my disgust. Not helped by the fact that I didn't think it was particularly good. It looked great, but narratively it seemed pretty weak and seemed to have too many flat moments, with the characters just talking but nothing particularly happening.

While I enjoy music of all genres, when the film featured non-Pop music it suffered. Pop music is what works for Trolls. Rock You Like A Hurricane was fine, but after that the rock music was non-distinct.

And as for the ending - the whole message that no particular type of music should dominate is undone by the fact that everyone then comes together with a pop song - I felt that needed to be more of a medley of genres.

@Zuljaras I still see a couple of them, every now and then. All new, never opened. But I guess that it's different in every country, so in some places they'll either sell faster, or they just have fewer in stock.

Either way, the end result is still that you managed to get your hands on one, so that's ultimately all that matters. Long as it's still in good condition.

Eh, I think I’m gonna start a new AC island on my Lite. I’ve ended up playing the game more in handheld, and the battery and comfort of my Lite is calling me.
