Fox Network hasn’t been affiliated with Fox News (and Tucker Carlson) in like two and a half years.

this got memory holed

I watched the first ep, and the tone was just . . . completely off. WAY too wry and self-satisfied

I was noticing the camera framing as well. They leaned a little too heavily on dutch angles which work fine in animation but I think inadvertently ended up making the show look a little cheap.

I don’t know what it was about the cinematography, but the whole thing felt like a fan-film. Something just seemed off with most shots, and they often used low shot, tilted angles.

Someone should throw a guitar pick at him.

Is that the guy who hit people with flowers?

“Y’know how Cowboy Bebop is episodic and people love it? And y’know how Mandalorian is a modern version of a space western featuring a bounty hunter and it’s also episodic and people love it? Anyway, let’s lean into serializing the hell out of this adaptation and see how that goes!”

It wasn’t perfect, but still a lot of fun, and very deserving of a second season.

It was a truly terrible performance. 

Vicious and his manscaping habits were a problem, but I’d say one of the biggest issues was that the writers thought that we needed an extensive backstory for Spike, Vicious and Julia in the first season.

I mean best case... and most likely case from having read the article... is he is wildly out of touch.

I just imagined saying that at my place of work, and... yeah, it wouldn’t go well. I guess me and my imaginary vagina will just have to keep our mouths shut... so to speak. 

In the VF piece, he just keeps repeating variations on “this is my process - can’t anybody take a joke?”

“that’s how I’m funny on camera” is by being a jackass off camera?

I forgot they were that close to each other. As if anyone needed proof Gamergate’s “actually it’s about ethics in journalism” was a massive lie.

Doritogate happened a few days/weeks before Gamergate.

He also went out of his way to shit on Konami at the VGAs over Hideo Kojima. So he has a history of breaking character, but I think in this case Ubisoft and ActiBlizz paid him enough money to shut up. The real telling thing will be if they cut the mic of any award recipients that go out of their way to call out the…

Why would he? His job exist to shill for gaming companies.
