I like them only if they lead to the erasure of map packs.

I never felt like it was speaking words any more than how people record their dogs howling/barking because it sounds like words forming a sentence (and different people will hear different words in their minds). It isn’t like it the bear was saying, “Hey, guys, would you mind coming outside for a bit?” It just…

It isn’t really an unreliable narrator trope when they don’t actually know what is going on but still want to hazard a guess. That just is what it is at face value; just a character’s guess. The only reason it doesn’t work, as you pointed out, is that the guess is something pulled from the book but the movie is…

The tie-in videogame nailed Luke better than the actual movie (for me, of course).

No, it definitely pokes through for a split second. They even mention it in the video. In either slow mo or super slow mo, you can see the needle hit the glass, get stuck for a quick moment and then slide out at an angle.

I don’t think that would have helped much. Yeah, he broke him out of prison but he basically just did it to kill him afterwards and bring him to Wakanda. Killmonger could just argue that he needed Klaue to get into the country and that taking him out from under the nose of T’Challa is just further proof that he isn’t…

I don’t doubt that io9 likes it clicks, doubly so since they were turned into a subsite of Gizmodo rather than its own site like it used to be. With the Altered Carbon article, the content of the article itself was perfectly fine but, yes, the use of the word ‘whitewashing’ in the headline was a little clickbait-y.

The thing is, you know this article doesn’t exist if we didn’t know about the scene being cut. That is because this film is being lauded for its representation. And even in this instance, it isn’t being asked to represent everyone. Notice we are not talking about Asians or Latinos, etc. But when something so small but…

You don’t think Black Panther hasn’t been lauded for its progress? Have you been on the internet lately? Or are you scared that there is some metaphysical ‘Praise’ meter somewhere that drops whenever there is a critique of some kind that isn’t adding to its Rotten Tomatoes score.

I am the same with serious games on the phone. At this point, I just play puzzles games and things like it. I was into a few gacha games for a bit then it took me a few months to realize I kind of hate them and was glad to uninstall them.

Of JL could have done the sensible thing and delayed the film release since that movie desperately needed more time to be reworked. And didn’t MI:6's shoot go late because of Cruise getting hurt? If I had to already break my leg in order to finish a movie, I would be making damn sure everything else went perfect to…

Anime Strike is the Amazon service and it no longer exists as of a few weeks ago. Now their anime shows are free to watch for any Prime member so if that applies to you, you can now watch Made in Abyss.

Talk about being disingenuous. You report talked about illegals that had been arrested at least once (obviously, since that is who they drew their random sampling from). Knowing someone is breaking the law is not the same as someone being arrested and jailed for a crime. Speeding is illegal and something that I am…

As a Giants fan who ... begrudgingly kind of maybe wanted the Eagles to hypothetically beat the Pats (if they wanted to; not like I really cared), I think both calls were correct. The Ertz catch seemed the most obvious. I saw the first replay I just knew it would stand as a catch ... until the replay took a little…

Max Payne was just a straight fuck up. Even putting aside how they told the story, they couldn’t even get the film noir style right which is the first thing they needed to do. Hitman is actually not easy to adapt considering it main claim to fame is the style in which you can complete missions. Again, they can mess…

I actually think the time between Halo 5 and 6 works in there favor to a degree. Halo isn’t and will never be as big as it used to be but that doesn’t mean it still doesn’t sell millions of copies. It also isn’t the kind of franchise that people, even non-fans, tend to forget after a brief hiatus. Let them take their…

This right here. This is where the push back comes from. Looking at this as a cardboard DIY toy for everyone, it isn’t that much different than all the other things that could be considered a bad value buy that all of us nonetheless waste money on anyway throughout our lives. We have all ‘wasted’ money for short term…

Yeah. I mean, I thought I watched the show (not completely; just up to the Pain arc) but I guess I had a technological blindspot or something because I don’t remember much of anything like what these people are talking about.

When it comes to things like this, it is definitely more of a principled stance than anything (but not hypothetical. I am actually slightly annoyed by the changes and not just arguing for argument’s sake). I am not exactly lacking when it comes to action games to play. It is the kind of thing that is different from…

Here’s the thing. A lot of the criticism comes from precisely what you pointed out. It felt like the mechanics of the game couldn’t change only because they really didn’t change much of anything across 7 titles (really 6 when you don’t count the side-scrolling mobile game). They also made just as many prequels as they…
