What's the story with the flashing lights thing?

Basically the villain uses hypnosis and there were some flashing sequences

After a brief catch up, I can say I've been kept busy by one 9f the folders naffing up a job, should probably put that work in his driveway like the valleys edition of I know what you did last summer - o' I kno' yew fom las' week don I?

Nintendo Sixty Foooouuur!
Ah I remember those days, Mario, golden eye, Pokemon stadium and the original orcirina of time I've forgotten where it is now thoigh, probably in my dad's loft? Can't really go there now his gf's fam is using it like a halfway house. Golden eye was grand though, half the characters you could pick for multiplayer were dumb and you could squeeze off a couple of brutal kills with a paintball gun!

Flashing or actual strobing?

Probably worth noting that the Incredible 2 flashing epilepsy thing was solved for the UK release, with it being re-edited to be compliant with the standards for epileptic safety in media.

As far as I was aware they were just putting a warning before it and not editing it

Yeah I didn't really notice anything that might cause a problem.

I didn't see a warning so this is indeed the case. Was a good film overall.

I just caught up to episode 22 of darling in the franxx, I can definitely

Spoiler: Spoiler. Kind of but not really.

see why folks have issues with the ending, can’t see them dragging it out of the crap it’s in.

I liked it but would have liked it more 10 years ago. I didnt see a reason for the 14 year gap unlike Toy Story 3

I agree, feels like it was never going to live up to the hype it was given.

 

[thedoctor2016]

Same, but it did come closer than Thought

 

[HWR]

Asides from the lacklustre and predictable villain/plot twist it was good stuff.

How would you rate watching it from it’s the best thing since sliced bread all the way to the other end of the scale which is... purple?

Ugh. So tired but want to wait about going to bed until after midnight, its the anniversary of when my partner and I met tomorrow so want to say something about that before sleeping. Anyone fancy brewing me some super strength coffee?

I assume partners are very good at bugging you. just have her bug you until the scheduled time. you may come up with something quite nasty as a result though

You see the issue there is I don’t want her to be aware that I’m deliberately staying awake.
