Thinkgeek didn’t go out of business. They were purchased by Gamestop for $140m when they decided gamer swag and nerd tchotchkes might compensate for the struggling used game market. Buying someone who does that was easier than developing it themselves.

The Stadium-style games had the benefit of using an entire game’s development resources to make a pretty battle system for games that already existed. And carrying over the models and animation from the previous iteration in the process.

If they want a less permanent approach they could always say her spell stopped working once she stepped out of our dimension during Multiverse of Madness, too.

The kid next door accidentally nukes a school or something and the news media/politicians roll with it to get a bunch of scared and/or stupid people frothing at the mouth over The Socovia Accords. They sell a fear that this new variety of unaccredited superhuman is dangerous, even if the majority of them are harmless…

I just about took a spit take when I read that line, assuming time really is meaningless now. But then I looked up the premier date and realized it was just very wrong.

I want you all to go to your room and think about what you’ve done.

You could always sell the cartridge, if you haven’t been lulled into the sweet embrace of digital convenience.

We all know which path Grogu is going to pick here (Mando even has a new ride with a convenient baby-sized seat).

Yes. Boba Fett wasn’t in the original movie when they filmed it.

I’ve always been curious about this image BECAUSE I knew it was edited. If anything I wish the article actually had an answer about who edited and what inspired them.

You can mostly just watch whichever one you like because there’s no important continuity between shows.

You see a lot sold at that price tagged “best offer accepted”, which means they could have sold for anything.

I haven’t seen evidence of these Oreos actually selling for that much. If you actually sort by completed listings, the most recent sale was $5.72. All the completed ones with a high price tag also have a “best offer accepted” tag, which means they could have gone for anything.

My interpretation was that they were supposed to be characters that would return and have something to do within the story, but reception was just so awful they changed directions.

I really, really want to see Black Widow (it’s actually the FIRST release to make me WANT to go to a theater) but the pandemic isn’t over. And covid rates here keep going up. It sucks.

1. Wasn’t this decision also made to appease China? They talked up not falling into harmful stereotypes and adding another woman to the screen, but wasn’t keeping Tibet out so China wouldn’t throw a fit also an issue?

I don’t think Sharon’s turn is actually Steve-centric, but it is pretty shitty that he didn’t even touch base with her over the course of Infinity War/Endgame. If she wasn’t dusted she would have been an invaluable ally for the remaining Avengers. And if she WAS dusted she sure didn’t get to show up for that final…

It’s not just Mario in his default idle animation — Nintendo has an actual render of Mario in this pose that this version seemingly tried to recreate.

Some far-future space creature is going to be studying Super Pochako, known only to them as a Polyvinyl Venus.
