I gotta go to the comments for video. Sheesh.

Thank you for sharing this. It does look a little stiff, but I’m totally down to see more of this attempt at Mignola’s chiaroscuro style in action.

And that was totally Lance Reddick.

I like the bit about “burning any who get too close”. Yessss, it’s because they were a li’l bit too much curious kitties, and definitely not because we dropped it all over their heads. If only they’d just kept their distance!

Not sure what’s up with that, but the Deck should “sleep” just fine. I tap the top button, it does that little blinky/wave thing and sleeps. I tap it again, it’s right back to where it was in seconds (lit. 3 seconds, I just tried it).

The battery does drain in sleep mode, albeit more slowly than usual. And battery…

One of the first things I had to hammer into myself as a nascent conceptual artist was the need to number your drawings. Makes receiving feedback so much easier.

Yeah, bag on the speeches all they like, but watching Skarsgård lean into that monologue was a pleasure. “I’ve made my mind a sunless place” is damn near Shakespearean.

“You’ll stay with me, Lonni. I need all the heroes I can get.” Chilling.

That’s just an amount that she needs to cover up, as she already gave it to the Rebellion. And presumably she needs to move more money in the future, so they’re setting up the channels. I believe Mon Mothma is intended to be so wealthy that moving around the cost of a couple hundred landspeeders is effectively the…

The Shonen Jump app is one of the few I’ll shill for freely. It really is a ridiculously good deal for keeping up with popular manga, though it works best with a tablet.


Manga Plus is also an official Shueisha app, which contains both the latest Shonen Jump material and additional Jump+ titles like Dandadan. Never…

Nice find! One of the neater things about media in the 21st century is how niche things like this can get attention. :)

So yeah, good example! The more parts you have in the armor, the more noise it makes, and plate is particularly clattery.

Though I am surprised at how quietly the full plate fellow could walk when he…

(soft falsetto) “Where did you get that lovely spatula?”
(deep bass) “What better what to say, ‘I love you’, than with the gift of a spatula?”
(singing) “At Spatula City, we got spatulas... And that’s ALL!”

Full plate armor clatters like a tin bucket of cutlery tossed down the stairs with pretty much every movement, especially when you have mail in addition to the plate. It’s already well-padded just to protect the wearer, and while you could try covering parts of the metal with cloth soften the interactions, you’d still…

Animators do a ton of work, recieve no appreciation or credit beyond their names in 6-pt font and paycheck that ends when the project does. This is how it’s been for decades... and then people complain about live-action adaptations and the poor quality of animated content, as if there were no relation between these…

Man, you know what would help Cassian get out of an Imperial prison? A subverted, reprogrammed K2-unit Imperial Security Droid.

BRING ON THE TUDYK.

Check your assumptions at the door, buddy. I don’t play this game and don’t care a whit either way. But you know what else comes with a revenue of £1.5B? Really, really good lawyers.

Please, feel free to follow the case with bated breath, and if this hotel actually presses a charge, then come and tell us all about…

Trademark, not copyright, at best. And since there doesn’t seem to be any logo or names involved, they’ll have to make an argument that their appearance alone is sufficiently unique in such a way as to constitute a brand identity in the consumer space. And then they have to establish that they are in some way…

Chris Hemsworth, probably.

I like the little tidbits of lore, and 3D objects you can spin around and look at in detail. I thought they were fun and helped reinforce the history of the character, and they took me to places on the map I might not have seen otherwise.

That being said, I’m very glad there were no more than 55, and that the game…

3D subsuming 2D has as much to do with reducing long-tail costs as to do with public opinion on animation. The same Buzz Lightyear assets used in the movie can be used to sell cereal or theme parks or the movie itself. 2D productions must either re-purpose existing footage or create new footage from whole cloth,…

Yes, I can see how the mission in which you are a spy acting undercover as a terrorist committing an awful act of mass murder on foriegn soil is equivalent to a level in which you play as law enforcement acting in your capacity as an officer and agent of the government. Totally the same.

To a certain degree, I really appreciated the linearity of GotG... sure, it’s no better than Uncharted (IN SPAAAAACE), but at the same time it’s no worse than Uncharted.

My worst criticism of the game is that the save system doesn’t allow you to iterate, so you can’t keep a save that’s right before a really fun part…

It was a one-off, that seemed pretty obvious from the start.

What’s much more likely, if demand and popularity continue, is that they’d set up a less-expensive continuing series, probably in 3D, a la the 7 seasons (and ongoing) collection of Clone Wars episodes that were derived from Tartakovsky’s short, high-impact,…
