I see people try to make AI images and photoshop them into something coherent but it always looks to me like they built a robot, put a wig on it, and called it alive.

Tech dude here. I can’t make art and can’t wrap my head around the need to make art. I do not have that innate compulsion to create something with nothing but a vision and anything that I do create when I try comes out dry and soulless. That lack of understanding inherently makes me appreciate art and artist for the…

I would love a sequel to “The Long Kiss Goodnight” reuniting Jackson and Gina Davis, and with Brie Larson starring as Gina Davis’ now-adult daughter. It is never ever going to happen, but I want it all the same.

Yeah, that’s why I don’t really know what to think of this kerfuffle. On the one hand, this exhibit sounds like it’s genuinely cringey. On the other hand, if the criticism boils down to “how dare they thumb their nose at high art” then fuck that noise.

The more even-handed critiques make a pretty decent case that the exhibit feels unfocused and maybe even lazy. I gotta say, though, I don’t know what her original criticism of the modern art world was exactly, but if it’s that a lot of it is a bunch of snooty assholes patting themselves on the back for being into…

I didn’t hate it, I just don’t know if you can call something a “comedy” show if the main purpose or intent of the substantive content isn’t to make people laugh. I won’t argue against people whossay she’s a skilled performer, masterfully juggles tension, or that she can be funny when she wants to be—I’m just saying…

Can we stop acting like this is in any way unique to entertainment? It exists in every industry, it just gets more often exposed and more publicly exposed because of the public nature of the industry. I think we have enough scapegoating of “hOlLyWoOd” by Qanon types as it is.

There are tons of franchises with good-to-decent people in charge of them. The problem is that “creator of TV show is actually a pretty nice person” is not an interesting news story, so anytime you hear something about the character of a creative person, it’s negative.

First, it is an awards show. This is the sort of thing where you probably should dress up a bit if you’re expecting to be on-stage, joke of an awards show as it might be.

I watched a somewhat recent interview with Tom Hanks, in which he was reminiscing lovingly about working with Candy. He made the excellent point that Candy’s comedy style was never the easy “fat guy fall down go boom” style that a lot of bigger comedians go to. In Splash, he was the playboy brother; in Only the…

The freezeframe final shot of Candy, especially since he’s been gone, hits me right in the feels every time. 

It’s a little odd but one thing that’s a common trend with these kind of abusers is they’ll act very quickly to cover their tracks. They’ll put on their nice face and make amends and say they’ll get help when they’re caught. And sometimes they do... and sometimes it’s just a ploy to keep their victim from actually…

“Just divorce him” and “Just leave him” will always go down in history as the most useless advice we can give abused women.

some will say they were cancelled because they “Got Woke” which is moron code for “has women in the show”, and a good sign anyone speaking this way can be safely ignored.  

The reality is G4 was a success in the past because it was one of the few shows like it at the time. Now, you can get G4 content on basically any…

Hey Kotaku, Luke, Patricia, et al.

Story-wise, it’s about as you’d expect from the bits you saw during American Movie. Very much low-budget amateur horror schlock. But I think he has a good eye for composition and lighting. Clearly some of it was rushed, but a lot of it is actually very nice to look at.

To me the most memorable part of Gremlins was the horrific story of why the girl doesn’t like Christmas. It’s one of those things that probably had to happen in real life at least once.

Yeah, of all the things to worry about, this seems way down the list. Even in an especially chatty game, I can’t see this increasing the vibration much over your average game, let alone something like, say, driving a car. Not to mention that nearly all cases of vibration syndrome come from people using tools or…

This is an accessibility feature for deaf people to perceive the cadence and intensity of speech.  I have no idea why Ari is even using it. 

I also liked the 90s versions
