I think that McKinnon is a major talent, but she stayed for so long that she got to a point where it was hurting her, both career-wise and creatively. She was due to move on.

I wouldn’t mind if they keep D’Onofrio, Cox and some the old cast, but reboot the series. The Netflix show had some good moments but made some mistakes - they wasted Ben Urich and Karen Page’s story ark made no sense.

The Netflix shows - and AOS - were part of the MCU proper at the beginning. They were marketed as such, and the people making the shows make them with that in mind. It’s only progressively that people realized that the Feige-Perlmutter power struggle was separating both continuities. But they didn’t know that when…

Even without considering Depp’s situation, Jack Sparrow has outlived his usefulness. Will Turner and Elizabeth Swann (I had to look up their name) may not have been as popular but they were necessary counterpoint to Sparrow’s eccentricities, and they grounded the movies. Without them, Sparrow is all flash and no…

It’s really just the religious thing.

In all fairness, with devs now working from home because of a pandemic, with games getting constantly bigger and with a new generation of console released not so long ago, it must be pretty hard to predict a readiness-date accurately. Of course, game companies could also be more patient before they announce anything...

I was already disappointed with ME3's ending, if BioWare is going to force me to accept the ending I hate the most as cannon, they’re going to lose a lot of good will from me. They already did so much to make sure that our choices mattered - or in some cases, gave the illusion of mattering - that taking such an…

Raiders of the Lost Ark and the first 2 Star Wars films have way more artistic value than most other films released the same year. I don’t think the Marvel films have reached that kind of quality so far - or even the quality of The Dark Knight - but it’s not the genre’s fault. It’s good that Olsen gets that.

It’s not optimal but she’s recognizable enough. She’s easier to recognize than Karen Gillan as Nebula, who is as incognito as one can be..

When Raimi directed Spider-Man in 2002, it felt like a Hollywood iconoclast getting to bring his manic creativity to a prestige property, a perfect pairing of artist and subject.

I was a fan of that show early on but the quality started dipping pretty quickly. I’m surprised they would even try to revive that show. It’s not like it was canceled too quickly and what happened to the cast after is not exactly happy. There’s the Masterson issue, and also Lisa Robin Kelly and Tanya Roberts both…

This story is less about celebrities than about “Reality” TV shows, which is still a horrible genre that shouldn’t exist. When one or two subjects lie about their wealth, it’s on them. When pretty much everyone lies, and the one person who didn’t lie was told he should, then it’s very much on the people making the…

Honestly, I consider this good news; the Spider-Man movies were a mess narratively, and were over-reliant on cameos. Whoever becomes in charge should focus on introducing its heroes properly first before trying to dump the whole MCU on them. I would also wait before using Doctor Doom; following the Dark Knight model…

Between the cartoony Sea of Thieves, the comedic Monkey Island games, and the good-but-trapped-by-its-formula AC: Black Flag game, it feels like there’s room for a pirate-themed, story-based single player game that is up for the taking. I would play the heck out of a game that is Uncharted, but with pirates.

Spielberg denied he fired her.

We’re getting another round of “never bet against James Cameron”, but honestly... Avatar may have made a lot of money but it could be the worst film he’s ever made. It’s so forgettable. You could’ve asked me ten minutes ago which film are the characters Jake Sully and Neytiri part of, and I would never have been able…

They’ll unionize, and Keywords will have to offer their demands to Bioware, who would be under no legal obligation to accept the offer and just go with a different temp agency.

The title makes it look like it’s a BioWare issue, and it really isn’t.

It shouldn’t change anything directly for the companies dealing with Keywords; they pay for services and Keywords provide them. The contract between them also means that the terms can’t be changed by either party midway through. Worst case scenario, they may have to pay a little more for future contracts if Keywords…

That’s why I said he made his name, not his fortune. He was already rich.
