ACK!!! It’s a terrible new navigation front page at io9!

Warner gave it away free on multiple platforms, but it was never GWG.

Thank you. I rewatched MASH a few years ago as an adult. Not only did it not age well, that shit wasn’t funny in the 1970s when it was made and the 1950s when it was supposed to occur. The womanizing and sexism were so obvious and prominent, that show didn’t have much else going for it aside from the war and whatever

I don’t know, I don’t like the “that’s just how comedy is!” bit very much, either. It’s not that jokes age over time—although they can, as humor styles change over generations. But that’s not really what’s happened with jokes that “age poorly” from the recent past. These are typically jokes that were hateful, and

Where were you when I was writing my headline?

To me that was the absolute perfect film embodiment of a two page splash panel right at the climax of a comic.

Yep. I did the same thing and now I've had an absolutely stupid number of spam calls. 

I didn’t exactly feel it with the Carl Weathers episode, but I think I catch your vibe. Like, compare the fight scene in this past episode with the one in episode 3 on the Imperial Cruiser. The feel between those two are completely different, yes, it’s in a space ship, bound to be very different, but compare the fight

I dunno, I think the whole action scene felt... cheap? It took me out of it for a hot second, and even though the action was superb, it felt like I was looking at something second-rate. Maybe we’ve just gotten used to them using the Volume so much that it’s warped my perception, but it felt off. Like it wasn’t

Rodriguez seems like an odd choice when Werner Herzog is right there.* He knows the story and the characters, and if there’s anyone who should direct an episode called “The Tragedy,” it’s Herzog. Temuera Morrison could be his new best fiend.

Everyone knows Aaron has the worst passwords and is a walking security risk.

I always felt that one of Microsoft’s biggest mistakes with the One was abandoning the Kinect. Without it being sold with every console, there was no way that developers were going to design games with it. We weren’t going to get anything from the big companies like Rockstar, but the indies could have gone insane with

One of my favorite things about the Mandolorian.

Just as the name says, this is not a solution to anything, just a “showcase” they can refer to when criticized, and say: “see, we’re paying for new”. Well, no they’re not, until they do that for every single piece of news article and for every publisher. In that sense this is also an attempt at divide and conquer the

I prefer this take than dramas about how when you’ve got a dysfunctional family, you’ve just got to deal with it because you only get one family.

That’s the kind of original thinking that Hollywood executives love to undermine and mutilate.

This might be the best casually-tossed-off comment section show pitch I’ve ever seen and I would legitimately watch it.

Well, that was something.

I would watch the heck out of Ottertown.

But again, all of these debates ultimately reveal that the real problem was that Disney didn’t act as proper caretakers of the franchise and didn’t put together an MCU-caliber war-room to architect and design the arc of the trilogy as a whole before anyone set foot onto the set of The Force Awakens. There are likely
