Which is relevant how? They made the game. They get to choose to keep it exclusive if they want to. People can disagree with that, but that doesn’t entitle them to steal.

And what facts are those? What time and time again proof are you referring to?

But more to the point: even if that’s true, do you think that makes it right to pirate games?

You’re entitled to your opinion, but I don’t see it as unnecessary at all. We only get so many movies a year, and we certainly only get so many Ghostbusters movies, and every time fans don’t demand more from their entertainment than just “Oooooh a proton pack! I remember that!” it’s one more movie that will only…

You’re missing the point. Crowd-pleasing is fine. The issue is with how it’s done and why some crowds ask for nothing more than just seeing old props and sets again, which on its own can’t sustain a good and memorable film.

Wait, it’s not? Isn’t that his occult bookstore?

In fairness, that was Dan Aykroyd’s idea first.

Actually, the cartoon established that the movies were Hollywood adaptations of their “real life” adventures. It even made a joke about how none of the actors looked like them.

Sure, you can.

But they can’t, and not having a game on your platform of choice doesn’t justify theft.

Metroid Dread wouldn’t exist without the company. The employees are a team; no one of them could put together Metroid Dread or any other game on their own. And it’s the company that puts them together to do so. The company isn’t just its leadership, it’s the employees, too.

Yeah you keep on telling yourself that. Anything to justify theft. “The devs have already been paid” doesn’t hold water when you take the focus off just one single game.

A company making choices you disagree with does not entitle you to steal their products, either morally or legally. And if you think it’s executives…

The hate for TFA was never about it being too nostalgic, let’s be honest. Rogue One was far more blatant in trotting out throwbacks, and most fans loved that film.

Actually this review confirms what I felt about the trailer, so it’s not just AV Club. Just because a lot of fans clap like trained seals every time a recognizable prop is fondled on camera doesn’t mean all of us do.

Why does this matter at all? Who cares? They’ll probably “retweet” the article the day before release, and meanwhile we have advance word on how the movie holds up. There is no down side.

This reinforces some fears I had after my initial viewing of the trailer. It already seemed to lean too heavily on nostalgic prop worship, like several other nostalgia-driven films in the last decade have done. I was hoping that was just the trailer, but unfortunately this review doesn’t surprise me at all.

All I want…

That describes everything about WoT.

Guys...

Funny enough, downloading that mod was the first and only time in all my years on the internet when I got hit with a DMCA warning from my ISP.

I’ve always loved this scene so much. It’s such a perfect joke.

If that preview video is the AI, I have to say it’s scary how much it sounds like Alec Baldwin. Although the delivery still sounds a touch like when my bank calls me to ask if those charges were really mine.
