Yeah, I’m not really thrilled with the reinforcement of the idea of women’s bodies as an “embodiment of nature” more than men’s bodies. The woman-as-nurturing-earth-mother-figure is not necessarily feminist. When it’s used to suggest that women are fundamentally different from men—more nurturing, more connected to…

Spit on the prequels all you want, but III opening scene is one of the coolest Star Wars moments in screen. If only the rest was more of that and less of the rest

I have yet to see someone defend this movie without criticizing Marvel. It’s a mediocre movie by its own.

This is as bad if not worse then the yahoo “Marvel fans can’t comprehend how deep Batman v Superman is” articles

If you keep repeating it’s good, maybe you’ll believe yourself.

People spend $18 for a 2 hour movie...why is $18 for a 3 hour game expensive?

I think it’s completely fine to say “hmm it’s a short game, maybe I won’t spend $18 on it til it’s on sale.” That’s a completely fine reaction to have BEFORE you spend that money. But to say “man I really enjoyed it but it’s short, I think I should get a refund” is dumb as fuck.

‘Being technically interesting doesn’t make it enjoyable to listen too, take classical music for instance.’

Thank you for writing this. I just read an article giving John Williams crap for not making memorable melodies. When listening through the whole soundtrack I would think about what sound would logically proceed or what I would do, and the theme would do the opposite. Like Rey’s theme at around 1:54-1:55. I appreciate…

I dunno, as someone who thinks that’s a pretty valid criticism (honestly, I was good after 2 Death Stars and one trench run, thanks), I would’ve been happy with there being no retread moments. I also think it’s a little disingenuous to compare the Star Wars and Star Trek fanbases, since I think Abrams has gone on…

You can carry the TONE of the original movie without DUPLICATING the plot wholesale.

You win. Way to lob rocks from the sidelines at the vehicles people use to try to improve themselves. Are crossfit and TED perfect? No way. Can they be cultish and obnoxious? Absolutely. But attempting to do something positive yet flawed is better than than than doing nothing at all. Don’t shit on people making an…

Generous? You may find the second lacking, but the general consensus is that it’s the better of the two.

Spider-Man 3 was real, Kirk. Look at it. LOOK AT IT:

I’ve always heard (and believe) the exact opposite. The second film was leaps and bounds better than the first, which doesn’t hold up at all today.

There are a lot of men out there. And I don’t know most of them, but it seems pretty damn unlikely that there are nearly three and a half billion rapists just walking around like it’s normal. I think it’s time to climb down from the outrage pony. It’s had a long day and is very tired. There is nothing to be gained by…

Speak for yourself. I am not capable of raping someone or justifying it to myself. I couldn’t even fathom it. I can’t even conceptualize being aroused doing that to someone.

I was with you until the last bit. That is such a horrible, massive generalization that has no bit of merit to it.

Actually, they do need to be canon in future game releases. It’s why battlefront has no story at all, they’re still sorting out what happens in the canon storyline and don’t want a game to make those decisions just yet. When Disney announced the new canon they said EVERYTHING after this, including games will be…
