I think his first intention was to *protect* the Ukranians, not for them to use as a war tool

man they just need to STOP.

This ain’t a unique take, but it is the correct one.

I don’t want FLCL to explain things or make sense, I want FLCL.

It really isn’t that complex, though. The fundamental problem is that streamers (most of which are now owned by the production companies themselves) have decided that the existing rules shouldn’t apply to them because they’re “different,” in much the same way that Uber decided the taxi regulations didn’t apply to them…

It is a complex issue but the studios and streaming services have no leg to stand on because they aren’t actually competing with each other when it comes to these residuals. They are a united front, leaving negotiations to an umbrella organization, the AMPTP.

The changing business dynamics are a smokescreen when a…

My ass is this because of the engine.

We should REALLLLLLLY be wary of this much consolidation within our beloved industry. Platforms gobbling up studios left and right, studios choosing to either use whatever UE has up their sleeves, or go for broke creating their own engine. Not good times. 

Could y’all please try being the least bit critical of this claim? At least provide some context, mention all the people they laid off this year.

Ah, thank you. It seemed unlikely that he’d make that kind of slip given how horny he’s been for that fucking X branding for decades.

Crazy that any time this dork goes out in public he’s massively booed. Almost like no one likes him outside his twitter blue check  bubble.

Oh good, the director who pretty much only makes shitty movies has decided to make obscenely long shitty movies. I’m overjoyed.

Was going to say this, the reason some of these entities are “not doing well” is because they decided to dump tons of cash into their own streaming silos instead of just being content to get rights $ from Netflix and Amazon where they could make money twice or three times of the same show between being on their…

Seriously. It doesn’t even make sense given what we know of the numbers. They’re paying millions per episode, yet they’re not willing to shell out a pittance of that for writers? It’s a fundamental misunderstanding of how their business works (and a sign that the producers are totally divorced from the nuts and bolts…

The problem, among others, is that every big studio decided that they, and they alone, were going to win the streaming wars, crush everyone else in the process, and then cherry pick whatever good stuff was left from the corpses. So they all let their Netflix deals expire, rushed to start their own services with their…

You hit on my big issue with his approach at the end: He lost the balance between having Thor BE a joke vs. having him be IN ON the joke vs. not needing a joke at all. He lost that balance because his instinct is to completely paper over emotional beats. Some people just HAVE to defuse an emotionally charged moment in…

They shouldn't be able to sell Overwatch Classic. They should give Overwatch Classic *back* after ripping it away from people.

Translation: “We could turn back the clock, we simply don’t want to.”

Also, like. It’s not “review bombing” if the criticism is legitimate. They’re just normal reviews.

It’s not a “review bomb” when people have authentic complaints. It’s just negative reviews.
