Football Manager 2020 - Lime Green to Legend 1 2
by LimeGreenLegend- 3 followers

Meet Lime Green. Lime knows nothing about football, except for one thing. That he wants to become the most legendary manager the game has ever seen. But, as you can see from these stats, that won't be the quickest or easiest of objectives. He has no coaching qualifications, the lowest attributes you could possibly have, the bare minimum playing experience (one accidental appearance for his local pub's Sunday league team while he was walking his dog), and he's only 20 years old, so it'll be a task to command any kind of respect. This is FM hard mode. However, Lime is determined, and applied for every managerial job...in the world. …

Anyone here play this? I've been playing since the late 90's, since the Championship Manager days. I enjoy putting a few hours in here and there, working on tactics and finding future stars. Used to play in some online leagues, but these days it's just single player. Feel free to discuss, give tips, post tactics or screenshots!

Anybody playing this year? I've been playing quite a lot, the gameplay is better this year, I can be patient and not get hit on the counter too easily, and since wing play is more effective, I've been having better results as it suits my style of play. Lots of small improvements has made the game a lot less stressful to play. Focusing on FUT, spent quite a lot of money to get a decent team and have only lost 4 times so far with +18 goal difference, big change to last year when I lost the same amount as I won with negative goal difference . Of course, having a good team and lots of coins helps a lot. 1 of my players is worth more than the whole of last …

XDBX Madden NFL Connected Franchise I have talked to a few members of the crew about starting a Connected Franchise Online. There seemed to be some interest. So I would like to create a Franchise for us to play. The Guidelines are as follows: The Game Settings will be set up by me, the League Commissioner. We will run on All-Pro with a Realistic Slider setup I found online. To play, you must: Be able to complete 2-3 games per week. They are mainly played against the computer, so it can be done on your own time. Head 2 Head games can be scheduled by the players. I know Tuesday Nights are free from GTA... Agree that all XDBX Rules apply. We play …

Perhaps if it takes off, Hatch will give us a sub-forum. Either way, here is the point of reference for the previously discussed details: I would be down for a shorter season if the option is available. If @G37is managing the Red Sox, that means someone may have to choose the Yankees. Any other ideas or team preferences?

For your topic, please add the players name, or draft pick, or both, that you are interested in trading out of your roster. This will make it easier for players to browse through the list, and find something that they are looking for, or maybe even see something that peaks their interest!

Schedule For Intra-League Games [Madden 2016]
by kernalhogan- 6 replies
- 1k views
I was bored, so I decided to look ahead at the season and find out all the games that we will be playing against each other and not against the CPU. It turns out there are only a total of five regular season games where the CPU will not have control of a team, and @truelife98 is hosting three of them. Week 1 - Jaguars vs. Panthers Week 7 - Jaguars vs. Bills Week 9 - Chargers vs. Bears Week 10 - Rams vs. Bears Week 12 - Jaguars vs. Chargers I fully expect the playoff picture to have all six of our teams in it, so hopefully there will be lots more PvP action in the playoffs and even the Super Bowl.

League Approval For Trades [Madden 2016]
by kernalhogan- 1 follower
- 13 replies
- 1.2k views
If any of you have played franchise mode in the past, then you know that the computer controlled teams will agree to some very unbalanced trades. Either players for picks or draft pick exchanges, the ways you can abuse the CPU controlled teams are lengthy. This can become gamebreaking, especially in a franchise with the salary cap turned on. I am suggesting we have a league wide vote on any trades in the league, be they between Users and CPU players or just between User players. The same idea is used in Fantasy Football to prevent one-sided trades from occurring.

Here is a place to share game tips, tactics, opinions, find people to game with and much more. I started playing this a few days ago and my impressions so far are... Wow! EA Sports have really stepped it up this year, every aspect of the game has had a complete overhaul. I have yet to play career mode so I cannot comment on that but it was always my least favourite, so far all of my gameplay has been FUT, Highlights of the Week and online friendlies.

The Teachers' Lounge (2023) dir Ilker Çatak Leonie Benesch plays a teacher, Carla, at a German school where there have been a series of thefts. Only small amounts of money have been taken, but someone is clearly making a habit of it. She teaches a class of 11 and 12 year olds. One is accused of being the thief, but she senses the accusation is false and borne out of another kids prejudice. The school handles it badly. She then has an idea, sets a trap and gets pretty conclusive evidence of who the real thief is. She confronts them hoping they can put an end to it without having to report the suspect, but they deny everything. Then the whole situation just spirals out of control, with counter accusations, further suspicion, protests, people not knowing the full story jumping to the wrong conclusion, etc, etc. Throughout all this Carla tries to do the right thing, keeping things confidential, that if she actually revealed would make life far easier for her, and so on. It's well acted, particularly by Benesch who I have seen previously in the excellent TV series Babylon Berlin. I found the child actors all quite good too, largely because they are just being normal kids. This is not the sort of drama where kids do adult things, like solving crimes, or coming to the rescue of someone in danger. They just do what you would expect kids that age to do in that situation. In some ways its quite a simple drama, no thrills, no special effects, not that much tension at first. But it does build up the tension quite subtlety for something which, at the end of the day, is quite a minor crime to something that seems bigger. The ending was a bit confusing to me. I can't say much without spoilers but it was not what I expected and I thought the story would go on a passed where it ended. I'm not sure what point the film makers where trying to make with this ending. But it was very interesting none-the-less. 8 / 10- 1

What I Watched This Week #152 (Nov 25-Dec 1) Radiohead: In Rainbows - From the Basement dir. David Barnard/2008/1h3m This concert film sees Radiohead play most of their In Rainbows album, plus a few select other songs, in Maida Vale Studios in London. The setting, and the fact that there is no audience, makes for an incredibly intimate experience and allows you to fully focus on the musicianship of each of the band members. Thom Yorke is an entrancing frontman – and excellent dancer if you've seen Paul Thomas Anderson's short film Anima – with his idiosyncratic twitching and distinctive wailing voice. I also liked how, thanks to the close proximity this films gives us, I was able to see the chord choices he makes when playing guitar. It's not something that the casual viewer would catch, but as a dabbler in guitar myself I really appreciated it. It was also fascinating to see lead guitarist Jonny Greenwood at work, his corner of the studio like a lab as he not only plays guitar but also keyboards and synths and at one point he's programming beats on a laptop. An up close and personal look at one of the best bands ever at work. 10/10 Harakiri dir. Masaki Kobayashi/1962/2h15m A depressed ronin – a samurai without a master – Hanshiro Tsugumo (Tatsuya Nakadai) comes to the house of Iyi looking for a place to commit honourable seppuku – ritual suicide – and a worthy swordsman to act as his assistant. The lord's chief counsellor Kageyu Saito (Rentaro Mikuni) questions him, as not long before a young man came to their house with a similar request. The film is made up of two stories that collide, that of the young man, Motome Chijiwa (Akira Ishihama), and Tsugumo's life story. This is an incredibly crafted film with some absolutely gorgeous cinematography and a perfectly paced plot that always keeps you hooked. It explores the samurai codes of honour and whether they are actually worth anything when challenged, and the differences between honour and respect as you can act with honour but no respect, as is the case in this film. What really drives this film forwards is the amazing performance by Nakadai in the lead role. He is the picture of absolute resolve, his one goal left in life to expose the hypocrisies of his fellow samurai. Even though this is made up of mostly conversations between Tsugumo and Saito I was still on the edge of my seat, with this story being one of the most enthralling I've ever seen. This is an absolute masterpiece in every way. 10/10 Lime's Film of the Week! Toy Story dir. John Lasseter/1995/1h21m Pixar's first feature length film is a genuine landmark in the history of cinema as it is the first fully computer animated film, ushering in a new age for animation like Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs did nearly sixty years earlier. Expanding on their short film Tin Toy, Toy Story imagines a world where toys come to life when no one is watching. Tom Hanks stars as cowboy Woody, the favourite toy of young Andy (John Morris). Life is good until Andy's birthday when he gets the brand new flashy toy, Buzz Lightyear (Tim Allen), and feels like he's being replaced. Apart from the textures looking very flat, though at the time they set the high bar in the industry, and the human characters looking frankly grotesque – though nowhere near as nightmare inducing as the baby from Tin Toy – this is as close to perfect as you can get. The script is hilarious and also hits some big emotional beats, the characters all have real depth and personality, and the songs by Randy Newman capture the charm and whimsy of the film perfectly. In my opinion this is the defining role of Hanks' career, and he makes an iconic duo with Allen's egotistical space ranger. The supporting cast is also full of instantly iconic characters with performances that all match their personalities, with John Ratzenberger as Hamm the know-it-all piggy bank being my favourite. Arguably the best, and most revolutionary, animated film ever made. 10/10 Killer's Kiss dir. Stanley Kubrick/1955/1h8m This early Kubrick stars Jamie Smith as Davey Gordon, a boxer at the tail end of his career who falls in love with dancer Gloria (Irene Kane). But their relationship is threatened by Gloria's boss, club owner and violent criminal Vincent Rapallo (Frank Silvera). The best thing about this film is the moody, almost noir-like, black and white photography. The New York City locations all feel seedy and lived-in, giving the film tons of atmosphere. The boxing scenes are also very well shot, echoing his earlier documentary short Day of the Fight. Sadly the rest of the film is distinctly average. Apart from Silvera who gives a good turn as a sleazy gangster the performances are pretty flat and the story is predictable and drags even though it's barely an hour long. This is an improvement on his debut feature film, Fear and Desire, but it won't be until his next two films, The Killing and Paths of Glory, that he really hits his stride as a filmmaker. This isn't a bad film, but it's really only worth seeking out if you're aiming to watch all of Kubrick's rather slim filmography. 5/10 Dark Star dir. John Carpenter/1974/1h23m John Carpenter's debut feature length film tells the story of four working class astronauts on a decades long mission travelling through the galaxy destroying unstable planets, readying the universe for colonisation. One of the astronauts is played by Dan O'Bannon who also co-wrote the script with Carpenter and would go on to write Alien, another sci-fi film about blue collar workers in deep space, but unlike that film this is full of humour, at times it's almost a full blown comedy. One protracted scene sees O'Bannon's character chase the ships alien mascot around, the alien being what looks like a beach ball with feet. They also get into a philosophical argument with one of their thermonuclear bombs, which honestly put me in mind of Talkie Toaster from the British sitcom Red Dwarf. Actually, a lot of this reminded me of Red Dwarf, low ranking technicians stuck on a space ship bored out of their minds and looking for something to pass the time. Because it started out as a student film the budget is practically non-existent and none of the performances really stand out, but I really like the concept and there are lots of interesting ideas here. Not what I was expecting from a John Carpenter sci-fi film, but worth watching all the same. 7/10 Emilia Perez dir. Jacques Audiard/2024/2h12m Zoe Saldana stars as Mexico City lawyer Rita who is kidnapped by a the leader of a cartel, Manitas (Karla Sofia Gascon), who asks for her help in transitioning to a woman, becoming the titular Emilia Perez (Sofia Gascon is a trans woman herself). What sounds like a heavy drama is given the melodramatic treatment of a soap opera, and is also a musical (the vaginoplasty song being a highlight). Sadly this only undercuts the seriousness of the subject matter and at points comes off like a joke. I've read reviews that say this does nothing to help trans representation and having no lived experience of that I couldn't say, but Perez as a character does come off as a selfish *sshole who I couldn't sympathise with at all, and none of it has anything to do with her gender identity. The performances from the two leads are good, and they really invest themselves in their characters, as does Selena Gomez as Perez's ex-wife Jessi, and they really help sell the more sincere moments here. Well intentioned but off target, there are some decent moments here but the wildly inconsistent tone throws it all off. 5/10 First Man dir. Damien Chazelle/2018/2h21m First Man is a biopic of astronaut Neil Armstrong (Ryan Gosling) covering his life from his time as a test pilot in the early 60s up to the moment he became the First Man on the moon in July 1969. As well as his professional life we also see his personal life with wife Janet (Claire Foy). The film presents Armstrong's stoic, isolated, obsessive personality as his way of dealing with grief, and makes his time on the moon imbued with even more meaning than it already has thanks to this. Gosling's performance is all under the surface but you can always feel his sadness, motivating him or maybe he's trying to run away from it. All of the launches and scenes in space make it feel suitably terrifying, with lots of close ups of all the bolts and rivets holding their ship together as they creak and groan. It's also mostly filmed from inside the ships during these scenes, no glossy shots of rockets gliding through space, so you feel like you're there with them. More of an emotional than informative biopic, if you're looking for a Wikipedia entry then you'll be disappointed, this is a very humane take on humanities greatest achievement. 8.5/10- 2
