@ Nevermore	:	(18 October 2019 - 01:20 AM) Oh, the turnover rates are high here as well.
@ TM2-Megatron	:	(17 October 2019 - 09:45 PM) Amazon.com and .ca, on the other hand, can be pretty terrible. I know from your squawkbox posts that you guys have your issues with Amazon over there, although you're lucky to have stronger government regulations and a union there. I gather the warehouse workers in the USA and Canada have it pretty crappy, with very high turnover, close to minimum wage pay, and no unions
@ TM2-Megatron	:	(17 October 2019 - 09:38 PM) Amazon.de doesn't really have the same issue. I've ordered from them (and UK, FR, IT and JP) several times, and their packaging is much better
@ Nevermore	:	(17 October 2019 - 05:22 PM) I'm not sure how it works on the customer's end. As packers, we sometimes have items that are flagged as "overwrap", which means we absolutely have to put them into a box even if they're already in pretty sturdy manufacturer packaging.
@ TM2-Megatron	:	(17 October 2019 - 03:05 PM) Yeah, I really do wish amazon had an option to upgrade packaging for an extra buck or something. I hate their bubble mailers
@ Benbot	:	(17 October 2019 - 07:17 AM) That's how it works. I just hope my order from Amazon doesn't arrive crushed because they idiotically stuffed it in an envelope.
@ Telly	:	(16 October 2019 - 10:48 PM) my walmart is acting true to form. as soon as mirage arrives from amazon, my walmart gets his entire wave in after months of having wave 1 clogging the pegs....
@ Nevermore	:	(16 October 2019 - 05:18 PM) I stirred up some trouble at work, complained about the blatant neglect of employee safety. Was asked to take photos and write down the locations so the matter could be properly escalated. Made me feel a little better.
@ wonko the sane?	:	(15 October 2019 - 02:55 PM) I got stabbed in the eyelid by a mudwasp, pulled down a tree, and then got ice cream. You know, all told: not a bad day.

@ Paladin	:	(15 October 2019 - 08:04 AM) your mom.
@ Benbot	:	(15 October 2019 - 08:02 AM) What's your favorite Paleolithic megafauna?
@ TM2-Megatron	:	(14 October 2019 - 10:06 PM) Together with the Rhino G1 sets, probably the most expensive DVDs I ever bought
@ TM2-Megatron	:	(14 October 2019 - 10:01 PM) I've still got the age-old Rhino sets
@ Telly	:	(14 October 2019 - 09:09 PM) i didnt find that at any of the ones around here, so i had to settle for seasons 1 and 2 of duckman for $3
@ Steevy Maximus	:	(14 October 2019 - 07:45 PM) Heck, I got the season 2/3 set for $3 (?) from a Dollar General discount bin
@ TM2-Megatron	:	(14 October 2019 - 07:29 PM) The series is pretty cheap on DVD, too, which at least will work internet or no. The complete series set seems to be OOP, but there's a Season 1 set as well as a combined 2 & 3 set.
@ wonko the sane?	:	(14 October 2019 - 06:10 PM) Woot! Beast wars!
@ Steevy Maximus	:	(14 October 2019 - 06:08 PM) Yay! Tubi now has the first season of Rescue Bots and the full run of Beast Wars FINALLY available.
@ Benbot	:	(14 October 2019 - 02:16 PM) Just like me in a game of Civilization. Don't have gunpowder? Time for your cities to burn.
@ Rycochet	:	(14 October 2019 - 01:51 PM) He dubbed the peoples that saw him as bad news cannibals and savages before enslaving and wiping them out too.
@ wonko the sane?	:	(14 October 2019 - 01:40 PM) And if they had been unfriendly: he would have simply slaughtered them with diseases they couldn't fight, and technology they couldn't match until they as a people did not exist. There's something about european backgrounds that drive us to exploit.
@ Rycochet	:	(14 October 2019 - 11:02 AM) He described the peoples he encountered as some of the most friendly and giving in the world, so naturally, he ate all their food, enslaved them and put them to work looking for gold that did not exist, until they as a people did not exist.
@ Paladin	:	(14 October 2019 - 09:57 AM) he landed by coincidence in front of long-term residents.
@ Sabrblade	:	(14 October 2019 - 09:55 AM) He said the world was round-o! (He said the world was round-o!) He said it could be found-o! (He said it could be found-o!) That hypothetical, calculated, son-of-a-gun, Columbo! (That hypothetical, calculated, son-of-a-gun, Columbo!)
@ Benbot	:	(14 October 2019 - 09:22 AM) In the year 1492, Columbus gave us the day off skoo
@ Noideaforaname	:	(14 October 2019 - 08:59 AM) How often do people actually celebrate Columbus or the Pilgrims? Usually it just feels like celebrating the first break in the school year and a nice dinner with the family.
@ wonko the sane?	:	(14 October 2019 - 08:29 AM) You've got like two more weeks until the american thanksgiving. Canadian thanksgiving is literally a harvest festival.
@ CVReynolds	:	(14 October 2019 - 08:09 AM) Hey, everyone. Come together to enjoy this national holiday made to celebrate a mass-murderer who never set foot in the USA. What fun!
@ Benbot	:	(14 October 2019 - 07:25 AM) that's perfect!
@ PlutoniumBoss	:	(14 October 2019 - 02:22 AM) A school-bus combiner called Valedictorion.
@ TriBlurr	:	(13 October 2019 - 12:16 AM) Honor-Roll
@ Arazyr	:	(11 October 2019 - 08:18 AM) I like that one.
@ PlutoniumBoss	:	(09 October 2019 - 10:39 PM) Oh, how about Dropout?
@ Pinkcolliebot	:	(09 October 2019 - 07:47 PM) Hey Everyone I'm beginning to put together The TF Roll Out Short Hot Rod's Presentation!
@ PlutoniumBoss	:	(09 October 2019 - 02:35 PM) Truant.
@ Maximus Ambus	:	(09 October 2019 - 12:26 PM) Haslab Unicron may change the direction of Cyberverse or the netflix series.
@ wonko the sane?	:	(09 October 2019 - 11:31 AM) Bluecheesewagon
@ Benbot	:	(09 October 2019 - 07:09 AM) Those are too friendly--what if he was a Decepticon?
@ PlutoniumBoss	:	(08 October 2019 - 07:23 PM) Cheesewagon
@ Dekafox	:	(08 October 2019 - 12:02 PM) Bus-Top has a very GoBot vibe
@ Bass X0	:	(08 October 2019 - 10:51 AM) I actually never heard of the name Megalodon until recently.
@ Noideaforaname	:	(08 October 2019 - 09:44 AM) Bus-Top, Omnibus, Cerebus, Busicus, Busicon
@ unluckiness	:	(08 October 2019 - 09:32 AM) Otto
@ unluckiness	:	(08 October 2019 - 09:32 AM) Frizzle
@ Dekafox	:	(08 October 2019 - 09:10 AM) Crankshaft?
@ Benbot	:	(08 October 2019 - 08:55 AM) What's a good name for a school bus Transformer?
@ lastmaximal	:	(08 October 2019 - 12:57 AM) Huh. There's a neat name for Beast Hunters Sharkticon Megs.
@ TheMightyMol...	:	(07 October 2019 - 11:44 AM) It's a submarine, we swear!
@ Otaku	:	(07 October 2019 - 11:26 AM) @Bass X0 Letting myself comment to say "That's a good one!" and ask "Would a megalodon be a good fit for Megatron?"

I thought about just putting this in the Guess Who thread I started, but no I want this to have it's own spot given what I'm seeing and hearing.

So... yeah as I predicted back in the thread for the 13th Ghost movie we are indeed getting another one in September.

Annnnnnnnd, it looks to be doing the same stupid thing that movie did. It very much looks like it's trying to go: "It was all fake! There never was anything supernatural!"

Just... why? Who the hell is in charge of the franchise right now? Why are you doing this? STOP.

Poking around I saw this:

Spoiler

I love Scooby Doo, and will still pick up and watch this, but mainly to confirm with anyone here interested if they do indeed mess it all up. *sighs*

Yeah. after seeing the trailer a few weeks ago I quickly got 13th Ghost vibes, so I've got no interest to watch this untill after you and others see it. I'm not gonna watch something that's gonna potentially hug over one of the best Scooby movies, in fact THE movie that actually brought Scooby back into popularity to begin with.

This has always been a franchise with jubilant highs and terrifying lows, and there's hardly a cohesive canon. I wouldn't stress that much.

Yeah, the Scooby DTV movies have gone downhill to the point where they're nothing more than cash grabs meant to appeal to kids and the more hardcore Scooby fans who prefer the monsters to be ghosts in masks.

Also, from what I heard, it was not the writer's idea of making this and Curse of The 13th Ghost as is, as one of them said in a podcast that Warner Bros. ordered them to tone down the supernatural elements.
