I know how to do my own plumbing, electrical work and auto repair. I can’t make a Mission Impossible movie. 

I remember reading somewhere that Basch was the origianl main character, but Square had concerns that their audience wouldn’t want to play as a gruff older man, so they created both Vaan and Penelo specifically to have the JRPG main character look.

Balthier should have been.

The only problem with this is that you can only respec skill points, not ability scores. So if you want any of the skills under Cool that require a Cool of 16, for example, you actually can’t get them if you’ve maxed out on your other ability scores.

the comment section did kinda die then though. It used to be waaaay more active and fun

A lot of posts end up with comment counts in the single digits (or none at all!), something that never used to happen. The ones which gain any sort of activity beyond that are the spicy takes which energize troll accounts, who then bait readers into participating. It’s depressing.

I mean, have you opened up a Gizmodo or AV Club article from 2012? None of those classic commenters are here anymore and a lowly article back then got 5x the number of total comments as in 2023.

R.I.P. - Such a loss.

So let me get this straight...

Couldn’t have put it better myself.  I love seeing more representation in film for any minority - but I’ve always had a problem with head canons that turn into gospel for some people.  Partly because it can quickly turn around and become a hostile community against the creators if suddenly there is something that…

People see what they want to see and that’s not always a bad thing. Coming out stories have had a lot of weight for a long time and when you’ve come out in some way or you want to come out or whatever else, you can find representation and strength in that and sometimes that’s exactly how it’s intended. But that…

Thank you,

Much love to the trans community but this ain’t it.

If you’re going to compare this to real life, do you know a lot of NYC cops like Miles’ dad who openly cooperate with vigilantes? I don’t think any of this is persuasive, but YMMV.

But the evidence above seems pretty unpersuasive and it’s not hinted at anywhere else in her character.

As a CIS white guy I always worry about venturing into this kind of discussion and I haven’t seen the movie yet (Monday!). But the evidence above seems pretty unpersuasive and it’s not hinted at anywhere else in her character. Having to hide half your life from your loved ones is a recurring theme of Spider-man (and…

There’s absolutely no reason for this to be a slideshow. Seriously. Making it a slideshow even shifts the numbering for each entry, so, e.g., the #1 movie is listed in the 2 spot. And the complete lack of commentary gives this list the appearance of something slapped together in a rush to meet a quota; giving the…

Reminder that Bobby Kotick makes money off this game.

I mean that would be pretty funny lmao.

Honestly, if we have any reason to be angry about casting choices in this movie, it’s that they didn’t cast a drag queen to play Ursula. DON’T YOU KNOW THAT IN EUROPEAN FOLKLORE, ALL OCTOPUS SEA WITCHES ARE DRAG QUEENS?!
