Goodman is a solid choice.

If anything, I feel bad for Sony and the dev team at WB Games.

Jesus Christ, what a bad take.

I know Animal Crossing was always going to be a big seller, but I’m curious how it would have stacked up if it hadn’t released alongside the pandemic. It was a perfect synergy for sales.

Nobody is from Earth, but “human” is still one of the races in the Star Wars galaxy.

Published in’98? Nope. Disney ejected everything besides the movies and shows from the canon. Some of it has been reintegrated in new stories, though, so maybe ol’ Dengar can dig him out again.

Theatrical releases are harder to make a pirated copy of (at least a good pirated copy) than VOD, which is insanely easy.

Remember when Fox decided to cut the advertised 3D version of Fan4stic and just kinda gave up on the film as it released?

This seems like Disney is just making the most out of a product that’s mostly complete. Whether they don’t want to drop more money on reshoots or they physically can’t because the young actors have…

It absolutely blows my mind that Fox took two cracks at the Dark Phoenix Saga — the first of which was the first “bad” X-Men movie after two successful films — the director of the second version is the same guy who wrote the first version.

Yeah, but those other options aren’t owned by Hasbro. That’s the key difference. (Well, I guess Gobots are? Didn’t they get absorbed into Transformers?)

For one Marvel didn’t “rebrand” anything to differentiate anything.

What they were trying to do was already done by them, honestly. Universal had the original shared universe, Marvel is just the big name doing it now.

...I think they ran into issues because Legendary’s Godzilla ran in and claimed “MonsterVerse” as part of their branding. There were also issues that a number of the Universal Monsters are actually public domain at this point, despite the Universal versions being the prominent versions people remember. For example,…

It really is genius. In theory it allows you to make a large, more obscure character who wouldn't otherwise get greenlet. In practice you buy a colander-variant Louis Tully you didn't want because your Terror Dog won't have a left-leg if you don't.

They announced a mobile revamp...in 2018. So yes, they’re “trying to revitalize the brand” but I think it’s still more “trying” than “revitalizing”.

You say that like Marvel has been all A-listers. Iron Man and the Avengers are A-listers now, but over 10 years ago none of the Avengers characters compared to Spidey or DC’s trio. But I get that Iron Man, Captain America, and Thor were still the Avengers. The Guardians of the Galaxy were nobodies, though, and those…

Here’s the thing:

Power Rangers was always kind of a sitcom. They basically filmed episodes of Saved by the Bell around Japanese Sentai footage! 

Fair, and Episode 1 and Episode 2 weren’t all that long.

I would still take 4-8 hour over the short “experiences” VR has been plagued with.

I’m amazed at the number of people complaining that it’s a VR title. I dunno what you folks expected, Valve is at the forefront of VR and they’re making the hardware now — of course they’re going to make software for their own hardware.

I’d at least get it if Half-Life 3 had become an exclusive for hardware you don’t…
