Don’t even with the Prequels. The only reason ANYONE should let go of their hatred of the Prequels is the blessed fact that now that other Star Wars movies are happening, there’s literally no reason to ever watch or think about them ever again. Even if TFA is a bad movie, it’s at least a bad movie that was competently…

I’m not a big fan of the shtick either, but his prequel trilogy reviews are almost universally considered legendary and totally worth your time if you can swallow the hammy acting and uncomfortable jokes.

This makes sense when you keep in mind that Dragon Ball is literally made for 5-10 year old boys. Of course their star protagonist has never kissed a girl. You can’t save the universe 10 times over AND deal with cooties at the same time.

Actually, are we SUPER SURE that this isn’t all viral marketing for the “It” reboot?

I honestly don’t know how you would make Tribes relevant today. With multiplayer shooters its either ubiquity or ghost towns, and I just don’t see a 64 player, team based, high-precision, mouse and keyboard exclusive game setting the world on fire in the post-Overwatch era. You could attract the Tribes fans,…

Ascend was a VERY good game. I think its problem was that it wasn’t quite hardcore enough for Tribes diehards, but it still had a crazy enough difficulty ramp to discourage the mainstream crowd you need to make a F2P multiplayer game really thrive. Torn between two worlds, it just sort of died on the vine. A damn…

It’s been a long time since I’ve followed anything MLP related (season 2 i think?) but I’ve never stopped being impressed by how smart character design and world building by a team that genuinely cares managed to rehabilitate the fuck out of a franchise that anyone would’ve assumed to be dead in the water. Faust’s…

Can’t we have any TV articles where commenters do not act as if the subject matter was the only thing available on television? Like, just one, maybe?

This is less about “protecting” other streamers and Twitch wanting to mitigate a potential trend that could affect future advertising deals. If a significant portion of the top streamers give the appearance that the object of the stream is to titillate rather than simply entertain, certain advertisers will want to…

I think having Inafune’s name (however tangentially) attached to the product might have gotten the marketing team spooked after the Mighty No. 9 debacle.

It’s easier to animate a rubberhose arm period. It doesn’t matter if you’re drawing it on paper or on a tablet. Look at black and white Fleischer and Disney and Warner Bros and you’ll see rubberhose everywhere. The animation became stellar in subsequent decades because those guys basically invented all the animation…

Yea, the Crewniverse is legit as hell. I believe they scan the hand drawings and composite and color in TVPaint.

So in the 90's there was a bit of a creator driven coup in the animation industry. Lots of veterans who worshiped at the feet of the old school were frustrated with extremely stifling house styles designed to sell toys and nothing else.

Act of God is a legal term that basically means natural disaster.

Fuck.

It’s also the frustration that comes from this being a state-wide disaster but the coverage rarely reflects the scale of it. Yes, BR got hit hard and it’s a name that people outside of Louisiana know, but like 90% of Denham Springs is underwater. Houses flooded in Crowley, in Lafayette, in Walker, in Youngsville and…

Which Goku countered by also learning the freeze time technique mid-battle. I was kinda dumbstruck watching it as that is literally the hook of the climactic battle in Jojo’s Bizarre Adventure: Stardust Crusaders.

The reason its worth more to criticize Berserk’s grosser tendancies is because its not a shit tier exploitation fest. It’s routinely praised as one of the greatest manga of all time. So when the panels are framed so the reader may ogle a side character’s body as she’s being raped, its fair to call bullshit on some of…

It wouldn’t be that fun. You’d be separated from the GM and the other players by a mountain of distractions. There’s barely room for dice rolling, much less notes and drinks. To be honest if there’s literally no one near you who runs a local game, you’d get more out of joining a newbie friendly session over skype and…

Meanwhile I’ve had boss encounters occur within impossible geometries like the inside of spheres with inverted gravity. Swashbuckling setpieces, dangling from ropes grappled to cave ceilings and falling 30 ft into the water below with combat happening the whole time. Cities built of 3 and 4 story docks, sinking into…
