If Bialik had not been a teenager at the time of the sketch, I’m not sure it would be objectionable.

None of the creatives, directors, or producers who worked on GTA1-5 or RDR1-2 are at the company anymore, so not sure it even matters.

As an American who is not Puerto Rican, I immediately had a double-take at seeing the wrong flag in Miles’s Apartment.

They shrank his head and neck for the remaster when switching to Tom Holland-lite. But the original thicker head and neck made him look more physically imposing and older compared to Miles, so looks like they kept the head and then upscaled the neck for the PS5 version.

“70 year old man misses his dead wife” is basically the elephant in the room of almost every eligible bachelor/ette of a certain age and I’m sure none of these women are bothered at all, to be honest. You’re signing up to be the last love, not the best love.

I always find it funny how AppleTV+ fans (I myself am a subscriber) constantly point to it as, “At least they don’t cancel shows after 3 seasons.”

You’re describing 80% of his current gimmick. He puts hour-long interviews from his show up online.

It’s too depressing to be entertained by shows that basically say “the world is quickly burning and there is no solution.

Not saying it isn’t, but I don’t find him enjoyable to watch anymore, and I’ve watched his shows religiously for years.

Closest mix of ennui and yearning I can come up with is “Weltschmerz,” or “world-pain.” It’s the moment of weariness that comes from realizing self-improvement isn’t enough and you actually have to change the world to stop your suffering.

Gamepass cannibalizes sales, as in “units moved/game,” but it doesn’t cannibalize revenue. The same way Netflix made 12 billion dollars in profit from subscriptions, which is double that of Universal Studios at 6 billion (including theme parks and its own streaming service). So, Netflix makes twice as much money…

I was a middle class kid with civil servant parents who went to an Ivy League school where I lived in a dorm bought and built the year before by the parent of a student who lived in that exact same dorm that year and was basically forced to wear a T-shirt and take a group photo in front of the dorm to thank the parent…

She majored in art history and speaks several languages fluently. She’s also part of a family tree of incredibly rich people who have never had to work a day in their lives and several members of her extended family are legitimately billionaires other than herself.

No one’s mad if your kid does the same job as you. They’re going to be mad if you make a phone call to get your kid the same job as you and then call it genetics, natural talent, or a generational predisposition to hard work preluding success within the myth of meritocracy.

Game Pass lowers individual game sales. Game pass increases market revenue and profits. These are two things happening at the same time.

I think it’s a safe bet that indie games do get cannibalised more, even if only for the risk factor

White people make movies about minorities all the time and people in those groups don’t complain when those movies are thoughtful and well-made.

But I’m not sure how Scorsese “missed the mark” because the story isn’t told from the perspective you wanted. Not that he’s immune from criticism, but it sounds like he hit the mark he was aiming for according to a lot of people.

Wow, did you really come here just to air your grievances about people who worked on a movie having constructive criticism about that movie, which you yourself have never seen?

After watching Parks and Recreation starting with Season 2, it is genuinely hard to try and care about The Office in any season.
