And in the early going, they IMPROVED the books.

Well then maybe he should have finished the fucking books?

Be prepared, you are gonna get responses from people who tell you that GRR’s ending will be completely different because Lord “Who Gives a Fuck” from the Land of “no one fucking cares” wasn’t in the show but is a HUGE part in the book because he is mentioned in passing in one chapter of the third book.

Basically this.

13 seasons?  No fucking way, no drama could sustain itself 13 seasons, 10 seasons is a challenge enough.  The series rushed hard but 13 seasons would be terminally dragging your feet.

Let’s see, they brought in 500k, and hired 70+ people. How does that math even work? For that many people 500k is 1-2 months of operating costs. I’m guessing the hires were paid crap wages, or were being paid with intangibles like exposure or percentages of profit. And that’s not taking into account that they dumped…

Pins are the folders that everyone is crying for on Switch and Playstation. Suggesting that they’re useless when they allow you to front face every game and app you might want immediate access to is... very stupid, Ari.

Man there’s such a weird overlap between the “end the stigma towards men’s mental health” crowd and the “haha men’s feelings don’t matter” crowd

adding a Minecraft character, and having it be top dog in tournaments is the funniest shit to ever happen in Smash Bros. Why get so mad? Those players should just, dunno, get better against it?

Black Adam was supposed to be 7/29 instead of Super Pets before it got pushed to October. So you are right.

I feel like there was a logjam, there was a pretty sustained period where studios were putting out everything that had their release delayed by COVID so there was a steady flow of big blockbusters that might otherwise have been clustered around summer or Christmas. Like it hasn’t felt like a regular movie season in a…

I realized that we have arrived at the point with Top Gun where every weekend my initial reaction is just ‘...How?’.

These days it’s mostly just Buzzfeed.

From Jason Schreier and Cecilia D’Anastasio’s excellent investigative reporting to this low-effort pablum.

I love Playstation and it’s my console of choice, mainly because I don’t want to invest the money in multiple consoles and I have a gaming PC as well. That said, I REALLY hate Sony’s anti-competitive and anti-consumer business practices. They need to tone it down a LOT. It’s bad for consumers and bad for the industry.

exactly X pointing out Y does the same thing is not hypocritical. It would only be hypocritical if X was specifically trying to cast Y as the only one doing it.

Microsoft is not complaining about exclusivity here. They’re rebuting Sony’s complaints.

Sony is coming off a little hypocritical here.

I don’t like this skin because it means I’d have to shoot a dog. Granted the dog will probably be shooting me too but still.

Honestly, including Bible Black kinda ruins the list. Its straight up porn and a lot of it isn’t consensual. It’s got a bad plot, and is not something to recommend for ‘plot’.
