Interesting way to generate clicks. Grab some niche thing and say it’s “everywhere” to get all the people saying they have never seen it before. Well done.

Isn’t this just a video game thing? Not saying I like it, just that I've come to accept it as normal for the adventure genre.
The biggest thing I want from this game is no more sliding sections. Unless Cal is a skier he should not be doing that with any regularity.
This wouldn’t typically be my thing but considering it’s on Gamepass and available immediately, I’m interested enough to give it a try. The art style looks fun and the gameplay could be cool even if the “cool rocker” character is cringe.
Same. I have a couple decks I cycle between. When they use featured zones like rickety bridge, I use my “Death Deck” that uses all the destruction cards. Yeah, it sucks when you use a different deck and get hit with the zones that you don’t like, but I feel like this is what forces people to create new decks and try…
“One guy field stripped a fir tree and walked like a fir tree”
Same. Top Gun was my dad’s favorite movie, not mine. I definitely saw it, but it wasn’t burned into my brain.
I snap like an extra in West Side Story. I snap every time and a lot of the time I’ll do it right out of the gate just to see if the other player will too. It’s not for any strategic reason, I just like seeing how the other play responds most of the time.
I played the first one when it came out and loved it. And then I tried playing the second one when it came out and just kind of groaned and wondered why I was spending my time with it. I am grateful that we’ve had a truckload of indie games come out in the time between those that have proven gameplay doesn’t have to…
I agree with you on all of the above. He somehow became a big name despite only having mediocre movies.
You’re not wrong. But if you’re an actor, getting a major Hollywood movie is your golden ticket. It might be a chance to go from barely affording rent to being a multi-millionaire. It’s not surprising people shut up. It’s probably also why every industry has a cone of silence at the top - it’s not because those people…
It was English dub for me. I realized it didn’t make any sense that way pretty quickly and changed the setting. It seems like a really odd choice for the show (it doesn’t seem to be a universal setting) but it wasn’t that big of an inconvenience to change, either.
I felt like there were a lot of loose ends and places for the series to go - but I honestly didn’t care to see them. By that point it’s just a different show, and I wasn’t invested in the characters enough to watch the transformation.
The entire prequels were about the emperor taking power through espionage and playing both sides in a war, so it’s not like they don’t know how to do that. But I think you’re right that they just don’t see a reason to embed a bunch of people into Ferrix when they don’t even bother putting their own troops there until…
I have loved Bill Murray stuff for decades, but if Aziz Ansari is squeamish about going forward with his project with him, maybe Disney shouldn’t be too excited about promoting him in their movies either.
Clothing shaming isn’t a thing when the people you’re talking about can actually afford clothes and are deliberately dressing down for something.
I don’t disagree that gaming execs famously don’t know how to dress. I also don’t disagree that the gaming industry is too white/male dominated. But how do you write 1,000 words or whatever about how bad the fashion is and then make the conclusion at the end of “So, basically, invite more marginalized people to The…
I really disliked him from the start of the show, but his sad sack routine when he was waiting for Marva got to me. He was very doglike there and there’s nothing sadder than a dog waiting for its owner.
There are some annoying as hell droids (looking at you Threepio) but they’re part of Star Wars. Removing droid characters removes one of the core parts of the universe.
I haven’t seen Black Panther yet, but I haven’t liked ANY of the Phase 4 movies. Spider-Man was the best of the bunch and even that felt like the good stuff (mostly just Green Goblin going ham on Spidey in the apartment building) were way overshadowed by the fan service and plot devices that made the rest of the…
