WW84 had an appropriate level of cheese, I think.  I wouldn't change the tone, and the moral is always a good one, especially when dealing with mythical characters like Wonder Woman's amazons.

Without any spoilers, here's what I would change about the movie.  After you watch it, let me know if you think these would be improvements.

1) At the start of the movie, we're shown a young Diana learning(?) an important(?) lesson.  Instead, I would start with Max Lord's childhood.  We're shown it later in the movie anyway.  I'd put it up front so we're compassionate with the character.  This would also serve as a less transparent reason to bond with Barbara, as they could be kindred spirits, and only later we learn his obsession.

2) I would postpone the difficult thing Diana has to do.  She still has cards to play at that point.  I think she'd don her special armour hoping it'd be enough to protect her.  When it gets shredded from her and she's beaten to the point that it's clear she can't win, only then she does the difficult thing, knowing the implications and that there'd be no warning.  It would devastate her while she's already at her lowest point.  Let her rage of what happens fuel her return to the fight and victory over her adversary.

3) Ignore everybody else at the end.  In my version we start with Max Lord, sympathize with him, understand why he does what he does.  So we need to end with just Max.  Chuck the "I wasn't talking to you" speech.  Let Max see the truth of what he's done to what he holds most dear.  They kind of show that already, but muddy it.  I'm just suggesting removing all the noise.  Make it purely his realization.  Make him alone do the thing that saves the day.

The rest of the movie, can stay as is.

Rather than a thread for each sauce, I thought we might share our reviews of any hot sauce here.  I'll start it off with some of my favourites from Chilly Chiles, a Canadian store that delivers.

• Los Calientes Tex-Mex flavour - great on tacos
• Mikey V's I Love Tacos Speaking of being great on tacos, this one's perfection
• Virginia Gentleman Bourbon and chipotle - Yum!
• Lynchburg Whiskey Swineapple Fantastic BBQ sauce - good on anything

I'm slowly getting the services back up.  Luckily nothing was lost.  Turned out to be some bad ram after upgrading the server memory, caused a whole mess of issues.  I've learned my lesson and tested the ram in the server now before setting it back up.

Item Level Restrictions defaulted to being on, but I wasn't aware it had such a negative effect on subraces.  I've disabled it on the server, so hopefully that resolves the issue.

It's official.  https://www.cbc.ca/news/world/coronavirus-who-says-covid-19-outbreak-a-pandemic-1.5493411

On the Games page is a number of old flash based games.  You can still play some of them using the local debug flash player for your system (linked on the games page).

Furthermore, I've added a game I threw together called Chain Reaction.  This is an HTML5 game, so it doesn't require Flash.  It'll just play in any browser.

It's using the same framework I started playing around with for a new version of Zombie Slaughter.  Today I've revisited that and have added a couple gunmen who target the zombies.  You can see the green crosshairs on the nearest enemy.  It's not playable yet, but a couple steps closer to it.

Just like you swap your BBQ propane tank at a corner gas bar, imagine swapping the fuel cell for your car.  Now imagine that fuel cell will carry you 1500 miles before it's exhausted!  Instead of charging such a beast, you just have to swap it for a recharged unit.
