I’m surprised the video wasn’t aired out of order...

Exactly, but Gibson isn’t written for Kindergarteners who don’t know any better and love flashing lights and colors.

I could seriously read stories about Steve Jobs all day.

The Steve Jobs “hero / shithead” rollercoaster was real, and after riding high for a long time, I was now on the down side. Someone told me that Steve explicitly instructed them to not give me access to the early iPhone SDK when it finally was ready.

I still think Ant Man turned out pretty good. Definitely in my Top Marvel alongside Black Panther and the first Guardians.

Predator 2 was great and I will not hear otherwise. Plus Ice Cube sampled the hell out of it quite wonderfully.

Only if they started the sequel Supernatural style with “Carry On My Wayward Son” recapping Tony Stark and the Avengers journey so far.

Ellis is MAGNIFICENT! I love her videos, her I Ate The Whole Plate series about the Transformers movies is great. Thankfully she maintained her copies of her videos from her time with Channel Awesome so she kept them when Blip went south. I was never a fan of Channel Awesome (something always seemed a bit off about…

For a minute I thought it was a video by those hacks “Everything Wrong With...”

The fact that the unfairly-maligned Hobbit cartoon from 1977 managed to hit almost all the major beats from the book (minus Beorn of course) in about 90 minutes shows how tight the story could’ve been as a single 3-hour movie instead of the bloated “epic trilogy” it was never meant to be.

I find it actually less film-like then LotRs. The Hobbit is written episodically, with each chapter basically being its own little adventure with a distinct beginning, middle, and end, and very few of them have anything to do with each other or even lead organically into one another. The whole book is a long string of…

Yes, I really appreciated the amount of research she did into this series. Her video essays have been really, really good, but this was on a whole new level, and I appreciate how much work she put into not just positing a theory, but backing it up. She has very few nice things to say about the Hobbit trilogy, but she…

OH MY GOD

And here we go again.

Countdown to the following:

1.) “Well, Black people use the word all the time, so we should be able to use it too! Either everyone can use it, or no one can!” —If you actually need linguistic reclamation explained to you, ask, and I’ll be happy to provide a calm, respectful description of how it…

On that last point, probably because Daryl has become one of the bozos precisely because they stopped developing his character is my guess.

“Negan pops up from behind a nearby dumpster”

Or anime ninja elves.

No fucking CGI orcs. I’m serious. Makeup and prosthetics or leave Tolkien alone.

For a billion dollars they better genetically engineer real hobbits, elves, dwarves, and orcs.

He’s too busy in the Feebles Extended Universe for Starz.
