Well, we probably won’t see the next Elder Scrolls for another decade. So maybe Fallout 5 will be ready to go sometime around 2040. But on the upside, we’ll get at least another dozen or so remasters of Skyrim in the interim.  

Are they trying to win over the proudly poorly educated group that will not change their views in the face over overwhelming science and research studies?

I’ve also read about the removal of the line Paul’s says to Mother Mohiam bc of misogyny:

Exactly. Chani has zero agency in the books, which is probably a symptom of the time it was written. She’s just kinda like “Oh, I love Paul, so whatever he decides must be best.”

I didn’t think I’d end up liking The Batman, but it’s become one my favorite Batman films; heck, one of my favorite superhero films in general. I like how weird, emo, and detached Bruce Wayne is, even out of the cape and cowl. He comes across as a trust fund baby who never learned how to associate with other humans,…

That’s my work commute. Super pissed I passed on coming in to work that day

i think they did this in order to differentiate it from all of the stories, like Avatar, that it has gone on to influence. a faithful adaptation of Chani is basically just Neytiri, and i’m not sure that would cut it in this day and age.

i think it was the political aspect that was pushed too far back. it was probably done on purpose to “shock” the audience at his choice. but there were indications and conversations of what saving his hand for the greater choice was and the idea that he could take the throne due to the emperor having only an unwed…

This is funny. A+

That is maybe the one thing Lynch’s Dune gets right. The design is so wild and feels lived in (people have pet pugs!). New Dune feels so sterile.

I tell this story all the time, but an acquaintance worked in Hollywood for a while and they literally had a spreadsheet on how to maximize returns based on preset criteria. This particular studio had a line-item for Vin Diesel because putting him an any dogshit film would net them at least a couple more million than…

It’s not Fallout 5 because I can’t decide that the main character is a child-murdering cannibal.

There will definitely be another Fallout. Bethesda/MS would be insane to just abandon the IP given how popular it is. Since BGS is going to be busy with ES6 for the next 5 years or so, I’m hoping MS gets another one of their studios to work on FO5 (or a FO spinoff). Maybe even make it a multi-studio affair. A Fallout…

I feel like the Vault 76 dwellers were very much idealistic and naive...they pretty much got fed nothing but good vibes in the vault and...that’s why so many of their bodies are littered across the hills of Appalachia 

Didn’t it depend on the vault? Weren’t a lot of them experiments to see how people would react. Some were fully automated utopias and others were intentionally not to see how humans adapt.

So what I’m getting from this is: It’s been too long since I’ve watched Inside Llewyn Davis.

An added layer of hilarity since it sounds like he says “hockey PANTS”

Gambol: You think you can just steal from us and walk away?!

Bruce Wayne : Well today I found out what Batman can’t do. He can’t endure this. Today you get to say “I told you so.”
