The first season was bad, and the first three or four episodes of this season I got through were bad. Good for anyone who likes it but I'm just not interested in spending any more time with the show, and it doesn't have anything to do with adherence to the games (whose stories I never followed all that closely, just…

Because it’s just as much cost-cutting, but where there used to be jokes, post-Marvel the prevailing humor is just characters lifelessly talking with modern-day affectations in genre settings.

Exactly, understandably they use the similar name to help it sell, but they shouldn’t pretend a large part of the reason it helps sell isn't that people think it’s a sequel.

Adin Ross just might be the dumbest human being in a community of blisteringly dumb human beings

fucked up power fantasy

Not sure how I feel, game seems fun but I’m not a cat fan and if my wife walks into a home with a cat she dies...

Yeah, that moment (referencing a viral video, like you said) was widely seen as maybe the most embarrassing part of a massive disappointment of a movie.

“Embrace tradition, reject modernity” is just so incredibly pathetic

Nah, just don’t want to engage with an asshole.

Because I want to give you the benefit of the doubt, I encourage you to just read what she actually said, and I believe you can figure it out! You don’t need to be a genius at all.

Man, dudes in the comment talking about hypothetical other cuts/versions of the movie are really missing the point entirely. She’s right about everything other than maybe that there’s a shocking number of idiots with no sense of visual/film/narrative literacy who will gobble up broken AI content and see no difference.

Yeah, I’m pretty blown away by this. As dumb as people can be, and as many root causes you can see for misguided thinking, few things are as absolutely inexplicable as this garbage.

I try to be open minded and not an old man yelling at clouds, but this moron sucks ass. That he's a multimillionaire is shameful.

Accuses me of strawmanning while strawmanning. Can’t make this up. Really can’t fix this kind of stupid.

Editing is a massive contributor to quality, is the point. It is part of what makes something good or bad, and you’re arbitrarily saying making something good longer automatically keeps it good, which the history of art has proven wildly ignorant.

Plenty of people complain about book, movies, and novels being overlong. And that complaint is often lodged at things like TV adaptations that stretch an originally shorter story thin.

“How can a remake be too long?” he asks under an article explaining clearly why the remake is too long.

Tiny Tina’s casting really feels like it’s gonna kill the chance this movie had. It could be all kinds of bland and corny, but if they’d put the right dynamic actor in the role of an insane wild card child she could have stood out and been enough to carry it and give it something memorable (all movies just need their…

Thanksgiving is exactly the kind of movie that Roth should always be making

Interest was flagging before the Majors story hit, he’s just a perfect scapegoat to attempt to change course
