GotY editions are my preferred way to play stuff like this.  I have only so much time and tons of games to get to, so I know I’m only going to play through a game like Cyberpunk 2077 once.  That being the case, I’m going to wait for the most complete experience possible.

Pah, back in the good old days he would have gotten his real nipples pierced. Kids these days don’t know the meaning of sacrifice. Grumble, grumble.

He insulted the profession of historians so close enough. Saying yeah well you weren’t there so I can say whatever is maddening. Primary sources are people who were there. Yes there’s biases and issues but its not like we’re working with nothing.

What I want to know is if they show Joséphine’s bad teeth. Apparently (having grown up in the French Caribbean) her teeth were almost entirely rotten, a combination of eating a lot of sugar and the poor dental hygiene of the time. 

That doesn’t sound like a positive to me, the clearly absent parts. Its weird that almost sounds like the film assumes a baseline level of knowledge but the people who actually have read and studied Napoleon viciously hate the film for some rather hysterical inaccuracies. I mean this is a movie where Napoleon leads a…

I suspect it is more along the lines of the “weird internet Zach Snyder bullshit.”

How about a nice game of chess?

God damn that’s a good title.

The solution is obvious: do the whole film in mime.

I definitely could not spend 150 minutes looking at Phoenix’s single, dour expression and listening to his truly awful monotone delivery. And don’t even get me started on why Phoenix is the only one with an American accent while everyone else in this movie about a France uses a British one. 

“so maybe some French filmmaker should make a movie about an iconic-yet-problematic British historical figure”

Wellington is literally right there, AVClub.

He’s actually suing over the report that shows ads for large companies next to terrible right wing tweets.  You know, the thing Media Matters has been reporting on for a year now over and over again.  He’s just trying to distract that he’s also an idiot and an antisemite 

I’m trying to find that clip where vapour-brained ET reporter asked Idris Elba about him being an “African American” actor.

He’s 83; I’m not surprised that he’s as belligerent as Scorcese.

That’s something I would never want to be involved in, in any way- The actor or the interviewer or anything. Sure, fielding dumb questions seems like an easy job, but even if I were the world’s greatest living actor, I think I’d have a real hard time feigning interest or even amusement as every interviewer asked me…

Yeah, if Cena got real mad, Zaslav wouldn’t even be able to see him coming in time to do something!

RIP Jezebel and godspeed to the writers and staff. Ever since they shut down Splinter and turned off comments on Deadspin/The Root I knew it was only a matter of time until they took out Jez.

I hope all of you are polishing your resumes, who knows how long before Kotaku doesn’t align with the herb’s business model too.

“The Holdovers is a warm, funny, and emotionally winning film about people.”

That’s good, because Sideways was an annoying, unfunny film about pretentious assholes that tried as hard as humanly possible to not be likeable in any way.  I guess the only way was up from there.

Eckhart seems like a nice guy but I have heard he can be kind of two faced.
