Your problem is that you’re looking at it backwards. You aren’t making a “purchase” the idea is that you’re donating to a cause, and Blizzard is giving the skin as a thank you.

He did mention it, or am I just missing a joke here?

The people on here complaining that “the snap” didn’t mean anything are missing the point, or in a larger sense can’t just appreciate the moment. Obviously a lot of these characters are going to come back, but it doesn’t change the feeling I had watching them die after investing 18 movies into them. Also, the impact…

Except that wouldn’t be equivalent, at all. First, the Joker isn’t a racist caricature with a minimal amount of good comic history to pull from. Second, the Mandarin in 3 wasn’t created to turn anyone against Iron Man, but rather to give the world a “scary terrorist” they could focus on while not noticing how Killian…

Obviously

Obviously

Yeah, what I say to that is call me if/when it ever matters, because to me, that always felt like throwing a bone to the people that just couldn’t get over it.

Favorite: Winter Soldier - Thought it was a perfect sequel, improving on everything that worked from the first one, and by nailing the “villian” not by having him be charismatic (which is good) but by having him be this Terminator-esque boogieman.

OK, but his response was that while yes, Mitchell would have hit those free throws, Simmons is shooting 10% better from the field, so Mitchell making those doesn’t do anything to really add to the debate between the two.

There needs to be a more emphatic button than just the star for posts like this.

Talking about Star Wars in that tweet

Yeah but, like, but maybe he’s like just talented yo. Also, obligatory On Wisconsin.

Agree to disagree I suppose. I wasn’t trying for a “gotcha” I just don’t buy this “People ask us why we harp on Bill Simmons a lot here and the answer is because he’s the most powerful, influential sportswriter in America.” I think it’s weird that they had two posts about a fairly mild take that isn’t that different…

I’m not suggesting that Simmons doesn’t have power, I’m suggesting that claiming that power is why Deadspin has such a hate boner for the guy is nonsense.

All of the above is true, but I call bullshit on the “Because he’s the most powerful, blah, blah” There is clearly a personal element involved here, just like that movie from the 80's

Noooooooope. Even by Transformers plot standards the movie is bananas nonsensical, and the fight scenes are incredibly underwhelming

This, but also not this, because if P5 was on my switch I would literally get nothing done ever.

That’s really all I want for it.

The first Bravely is good, I thought the second was a huge let down

I disagree with this take.
