The narrator always kills it for me. She sounds like she’s talking to 12 year olds in the 90's. It’s so immature and cheesy sounding. We always get the real commercial stuff in these State of Play videos and never what we really wanna see. Most of it was, remembers those new IPs we showed last time? Here’s more of…

For many, he was an example of what more equitable storytelling might look like, a model for how to create compelling women protagonists who were also very, very fun to watch.

I wish I had a thousand stars for this.

Also, Political Correctness and Woke Culture both have a shitty aspect of self-righteous in-crowd elitism that sucks. I am a gen xer who has always tried to be an ally, and I hated the humorless self-righteousness of political correct culture (which I always experienced as white folks calling out other white folks to…

While we’re on the subject of failures, why don’t you eat some avocado toast or something that Millennials supposedly do instead of buying houses and diamonds? Are you really mad that instead of fixing the world up the way you want it to be, we spent our youth getting fucked up and piercing ourselves in strange…

Is this because GenX won’t take a side in the skinny jean/side part war? 

Cool. I look forward to Millennials fixing America’s social ills since Gen-X failed. Then I look forward to articles like this, written by Gen-Z, complaining that Millennials did not fix America.

And thinking that Marvel movies are somehow a crutch on exploration of themes or ideas, is why someone like you or Scoresese could never imagine a film like Black Panther or Into the Spider-verse to be made.
See I like how you have to dig for that interpretation for one of Scoresese’ lowest ranked films, meanwhile the…

Yea but there’s also a ton of newer studios and services that are looking to cater to the audiences that Disney no longer is interested in. A24 and Blumhouse would be two examples.

When Scoresese has a preference for only certain, particular types of cinema, and dismissing the rest, that counts as ignorance at any age or experience with historical cinema.
The Wolf of Wallstreet was basically a porn movie, and it just seems odd for him of all people to complain about the loudness and empty…

It’s not so much “lacking historical knowledge” as “lacking a perspective of what might be blowing the mind of a child today and making them want to be a filmmaker.”

Yes, it’s entirely possible that Captain America: Civil War will open up some ten-year-old to the possibilities of the medium. It is literally possible for any movie to do this...with the right ten-year-old. It’s a good reason not to forbid a ten-year-old from watching a superhero movie. It’s not really a reason…

That’s almost exactly what they’re doing though. There is no in-game story, just past lore that you get from cinematics and comics and such. So they’re adding it with the PvE mode. But otherwise, they’re just updating the original game, to the extent that if you don’t want the PvE stuff, you can just play the first…

This is the kind of talk that gets your “good movie” relegated to low performance and a sequel-less future. There’s no excuse, other than lazy film-making, for omitting all of the things you deem unnecessary. A movie can have all of those things. Look at franchises like Ip Man, it arguably has decent plot,…

I agree, but also the whole conceit of needing a character to serve as the audience stand-in is complete bullshit.

MK has been around for 29 years, it’s arguably bigger now than it’s ever been and is easily the most popular fighting game series in history. MK isn’t that complicated (convoluted, sure, but not…

There is a world of difference between comparing *public figures getting pushback on their stated views* to putting people in concentration camps, and comparing *putting people in concentration camps* to putting people in concentration camps.

Hmmm. After the many, many disappointing instances where actors and directors I love turn out to be pieces of shit (Hi Joss! Hi Johnny!), it’s almost refreshing to have a talentless piece of shit turn out to be a piece of shit. 2021 is indeed a low place.

This is just awful, I can’t imagine what living like that sort of fear is like.

I just want to say right off the bat that I believe her 100%, other public figures had similar traumatic experiences at the same place.
