Side note: Why “Hades 2"? Why not name it after, you know, the game’s main character?

Cameron probably doesn’t get enough credit for pushing the FX industry, and particularly digital effects. The Abyss and Terminator 2 were films that really challenged the post-Star Wars ILM to develop their CGI capabilities.

Disagree with him about Thanos - maybe some shots weren’t as well finished as others, but there was never anything which pulled me out of the story because it was glaring. And Brolin - in my opinion - doesn’t move his face much anyway, but still manages to emote a ton, which I felt worked with Thanos.

Yeah, I can’t see any other reason for this timing than to bury the story.

Solo: A Star Wars Story made about 90 million and is considered to be a box office bomb so...

Regardless of how the numbers are spun - post pandemic Theater going is not going to be the same as pre-pandemic theater going.

I was watching a video of a Youtuber wondering why EA doesn’t simply start Madden from scratch (since the current engine is clearly square peg/round hole with their sports games) and it’s like....that’s YEARS these days in terms of building a game from the ground up with the current hardware, engines, etc. AAA is now…

Or, if you do, go bold. Bring the TACKIEST blazer of all time alongside a charity t-shirt with a fucking bowtie. Commit to the absolute clown look.

Something I really like about the show is that not only are both Willow and Kit pretty much dicks, but I get why they are like that. That’s not to defend either of them, but rather they are setting up these character arcs for them. Additionally all of the main cast are flawed, but they are so in different ways that…

So like a typical session of D&D.

Teenage years suck and the added notoriety of being Cruz’s daughter probably makes navigating society a bit harder than it should be. An event like this being plastered over the Internet gives another weapon for people to attack a young woman who has little control over why she’s so notable.

Their official policy seems to be to never confirm or deny, whether it’s in reference to AoS or the Netflix shows. Likely so they can pull what they want and ignore what they don’t, or in case they change their mind later.

Karen started to get on my nerves honestly, the actress was great, but the character just seemed to get very annoying to me.
I need to re-watch it, I know I loved her in the first season.

Foggy was just great throughout, and I couldn’t imagine bringing back the same Daredevil, without Foggy.

It’s no more costly to develop games

The discs, packaging, and shipping were always a pittance of the actual overhead cost of bringing the product to market. The money is spent on the development and marketing, and the budgets required for AAA games are in the hundreds of millions of dollars.

I need to mention something about the history. The weird phrasing about Col Shaw has already been addressed below, but I need to explain that the 1st Louisiana Native Guard is a unique unit. It was originally a Confederate unit, and it was made up of mixed race creole men who were considered the upper planter class…

I think the construction implies that a story can be both invented and broadly true to life in the way it reflects inter-personal dynamics, broader social factors, etc, while, on the other hand, there are invented stories that ring false because they don’t accurately reflect those factors.

I will listen to arguments that stories about black soldiers no longer (and never should have in the first place) need white central figures like Shaw. Ebert said that in his review of Glory.

But I’d counter with this: Because Ferris Bueller and Westley from Princess Bride agreed to be in a movie, Denzel got an Oscar…

Keep this movie’s review OUT your fucking MOUTH!

Well, this review is a real slap in the face.
