I mean, he also created Farscape, and that show is evergreen. Alien Nation probably, definitely holds up.

God, this really takes me back to my childhood. I would always copy Sikes’ ceiling pounding every time the episode came on.

If they had kept all of that ending but replaced the fight with Ellie asking Abby about Joel and the Fireflies, I think it would have paid off even more. Have that image of Joel bloody happen when she takes Abby down off the cross instead of when she gets on the boat. Then when they get to the boat, Ellie just talks…

Reminder: the only real way to level up is to catch Pals and all Pals are worth the same XP.

Part of the strategy is figuring out how much damage your Pal does and then timing when to pull them back into the sphere so you can throw yours to catch the target.

It’s not a scam. It’s a fun game with a simple loop that the writer hasn’t figured out because he wants to build a machine gun at level 4 and is stuck crafting all day instead of doing the thing that gets you experience -- Catching Pals.

That tip seems counter-productive. You have to be a high enough level to unlock the saddle to ride it once you’ve caught it and if you’re getting one-shotted then you’re too low a level to ride the Pal you’re telling people to get in the first place.

If you catch a Tanzee at level 4 and give him a harness, he wields an assault rifle. You can then carry him around and use him as your assault rifle.

1. You can buy a gun at any level you want to if you go North East to the desert city. It’s very expensive. But there are several ways to automate free cash (like farms and low level cooking you can set up around level 6 or so).

There’s an entire show about Hawkeye feeling sad because he went on a mass murdering rampage that one time and this is the hill you’re dying on?

I was curious what the reshoots were for this show before it started, and the moment I got five minutes in I thought, “Oh... okay, it’ll be really obvious what Marvel demanded the show redo.”

Final Fantasy XV is the reason I couldn’t finish Final Fantasy XV. I played through all the driving, took the speedboat to the train, watched a bunch of cutscenes that were little more than clips from some Neflix movie I had no interest in watching, and they used that as a shortcut to get around dragging the story…

“The Drunk Daughter of Rob Schneider Ruined Dolly Parton’s Birthday Party” is probably an inaccurate description of how little Dolly would care but is still the funniest headline I’ve seen about this so far.

That’s not how quotes work.

Also, following up, Warner Bros. likely pulled the same move on Ray Fisher and Kiersey Clemmons years ago by floating an anonymous rumor to The Hollywood Reporter to distract from racism accusations against Joss Whedon and Geoff Johns. They claimed Fisher got Clemmons’s scenes cut from Justice League (...uh...how?),…

The problem is that Oprah also complained about the problems on set weeks ago (as did other actors), but the story circled right back around to trying to make it Oprah versus Taraji instead of Oprah and Taraji versus the studio even after Oprah and Taraji debunked it over a month ago.

To be fair, only 20 million Gamecubes were sold. And as one of those people who owned one of those few Gamecubes, I had no idea this was a thing and appreciate it.

The funny thing is, so much of this show is material directly from the novels. It’s probably relying more on the novels than anything else. The departure is Master Chief, who in the game is just a cipher for the player and has pretty much no personality other than stoically dutiful.

As an American, I’m sympathetic to the emotional shock of the unexpected use of two words you have only ever been taught apply to a very specific temporal and geographic history because your schooling is limited to a very specific temporal and geographic history.

I know someone who works for Apple and he claims Netflix is the one not wanting to play ball.
