This is going to be a controversial take, but the “we’re super-powerful and manifested to ancient humans as gods, but now we stay out of things unless a very specific circumstance occurs, and sometimes not even then” is pretty bad writing.

Netflix didn’t kill video stores. At best it was the finishing blow. The big killer was being able to buy movies for about 20 bucks vs over $100 in the 1980's. You don’t need to go to the video store every weekend to rent your kids the Little Mermaid or Star Wars something (and then get something for yourself) when…

Uh oh. HBOmax is making a series about Netflix. 

Being ageist for calling an 84 year old man old is like being sexist for calling a man a man.

The thing about serialised narrative, though, is that while it’s valid to expect the audience to have read / watched the previous installment, it’s getting a little rich to expect them to have read / watched other ongoing serialised narratives which are vaguely connected (especially multiple ones at once), and then…

I have no idea who’s responsible for it, but “Trapped in time.  Surrounded by evil. Low on gas.” is sublime.

It had some good moments, but yea it was kind of a mess.

Here’s the soapbox I want to stand on right now: can we please stop with the “I pull a hood over my head and then suddenly blend in” trope? Layla simply joins the group of Harrow’s followers, even riding in the same truck with them multiple times. Do Harrow’s…

Rumors on the internet??? It can’t be!! :)

No, Lucas isn’t doing any writing for Disney SW.  Zero.  

It seems pretty clear what they’re trying to do to me - they’re trying to build towards multiple event type movies / limited series at once. There are hints of Midnight Sons, Young Avengers, and Thunderbolts in what has been released and what we know is coming. Kang is definitely going to be a bigger threat.…

The faulty assumption here is that account freeloaders are actually potential subs in the first place.

Maybe not in other industries, but considering all streaming services have the same built-in problem, it hardly seems like closing one window is going to do much good. Most people I know pay for one or two services, and trade those out to others for access to a few more.

Looks very fun, but I’m still pissed over the idea of Vader and Obi Wan meeting between ROTS and ANH.  That should have not happened, it’s completely clear what the intent of the dialogue was in the original SW and they should respect that. 

You, sir or madam, are embittered and overly cynical.

Except that Harrow seems to have literally been killed by Lockley in the limo after being escorted outside of the asylum. If we’re to accept that Lockley killed Harrow, wouldn’t that be in the “real world?”

“What a time to be alive”

The second line of this article literally says “requires way too much homework.” He also says “the choice to lean so heavily on not just canonical but emotional ideas from the films’ streaming counterparts hobbles it for anyone who doesn’t know them chapter and verse—even with the characters constantly explaining…

Except that as per this review, you still do need to follow everything which is the valid point that Adam and I were discussing. You can’t just jump into a movie like this, Black Widow, or the Hawkeye TV show without watching the previous movies and shows without understanding what they’re talking about, referencing,…

Oh fuck off with the “do you have statistics to back up your claim”.  Open your eyes and actually pay attention to Reddit, and Twitter, and Youtube, you know, the 3 biggest sources of public discussions about the gaming industry.  Platforms with billions of users across the 3 of them.  So you can fuck right back off…

get back to me when Wong finally brings Medibot into the MCU
