Writer’s room, imagined dialogue...
A: “Y’know? seeing the footage of those Syrians fleeing over the Mediterranean for Greece got me thinking...”
B: “You want to give money to Doctors Without Borders?”
A: “No...how can we monetize this?”

This seem familiar to anyone -- Cough Cough the 4400

It’s not a weird issue at all - you are promoting piracy, plain and simple. These are people who are asking for people to PAY them to pirate a console game on a different system. It’s no different to you promoting a company who were making piracy unlock chips for consoles if you ask me. 

Counter-point:

So the kid is actually being grown in that pod for the couple, and to keep him emotionally stable (ala Bladerunner’s Replicant memories) he has a virtual reality childhood, and eventually he realizes he’s in a dream and goes a bit crazy, causing angst for his parents in the real world. Probably ends ambiguously.

You’re correct imo and your opinion is not uncommon at all, in fact I think most people feel that way. TFA is a significantly more involving movie. It also has vastly better pacing, and is actually a “Star Wars” movie, rather than a movie set in the Star Wars universe. All that said, Rogue One’s last act is FANTASTIC,…

I’m with you. I liked the movie, but I felt nothing for any of the characters.

YOU BEAT ME TO IT

The drop off in box office was massive after the opening weekend. They are not happy about that.

Because Batman doesn’t shoot guns! Except all the guns he shot in the film...

Not only is this a terrible idea, it also means that movies will be available in a pristine digital format from day 1 for the pirates to rip off and put up on torrent sites, rather than dodgy hadicam rips, making going to the cinema even LESS likely for anyone!

Please note that baby in the top image also had a hammer. I lost that round.

Worth noting: Jim Sterling also did a good video on this subject, with a slightly more console-focused slant.

If you’re pissing people off with your journalism, then you’re doing your job. Ruffling feathers, even if you’re entertainment reporters, is par for the course. Don’t stop doing it just because a couple publishers are a wee bit on the childish side of things.

Okay, I’ll give it a go tonight. I play here, so I’m not your usual PC setup. However I don’t really have an issue reading small text etc, so not really sure what (if any) benefit BP will have for me..

I don’t think this captures the season very well. The dialogue in the video is much better than in the actual show.

He seemed to have kinda reacted weirdly after it

Can I use this as a venue to positively WHIIIIIINE that Altered Carbon is NOT a fucking movie/HBO series yet? Damnit, why the fuck isn’t AC in a visual medium yet?? This is my favorite science fiction book, it unseated Dune, and that is a HELL OF A FEAT to accomplish!
