Feige generally seems like a genuine guy, so it’s not necessarily fair to suggest that he’s just saying this now because he wants people to see Shang-Chi...

Don’t you think this is far more bullshit-ridden than, say, a trailer?

So you’re saying marketers ... marketed their product? They highlighted the fact that people really enjoyed going to the movies and experiencing pop culture phenomenon together and that’s somehow bullshit?

Why is that unfortunate? I’m not going to be one of these people, I got to maybe 2 or 3 movies a year pre-pandemic, but it’s okay for people to start getting excited.

... and Oscar-winning Chloé Zhao bringing her signature style and incredible talent to making this a success as well...

The issue was never about some turds bashing women for showing their boobies, it was about whether the platform was appropriate for it or not.

I think they totally should have knocked off Enter the Dragon btw. Thing is, that film found room to introduce the characters and flesh out their personalities and motivations quite deftly, with the tournament as the nucleus of the plot.

Why the fuck do screenwriters keep taking games with basic, obviously-filmable premises (deadly martial arts tournament, demons on mars, zombies in a mansion) and then just doing their own fucking thing instead?

Haven’t watched the movie yet, but it appears that once again they are taking a dumb concept way too seriously.

Joe Taslim as Bi-Han / Sub-Zero and Hiroyuki Sanada as Hanzo Hasashi / Scorpion are so good in the opening moments they had me fooled into thinking the movie might be much better than I hoped.

Why won’t people accept that the original MK was the peak of fighting game movies and a classic on the same level as Top Gun, The Godfather, and Weekend At Bernie’s?

Perhaps they should enable a revive when players are not at the highest available World-Tier. That would keep things challenging for players who actively want the combat to feel like a puzzle, and it would cut down frustration for folks who just aren’t in the mood to git gud.

This was the perfect game for that numb pandemic summer, when I didn’t have the attention-span to finish movies, read novels, or remember the point of sidequests after ten minutes.

I’m still a bit baffled as to why this game is getting so much attention? Lack of anything else other than MHR? Because it hit Game Pass? SE is the publisher? My friends and I played it and were pretty underwhelmed.

It sure is.

Yeah, the nerf hurts enough that I’m back to using Temporal Blade as my go-to skill. Meanwhile, I like that Outriders has become the broken-ass AAA game that we’re rooting for. It’s a welcome break from the broken-ass AAA games that we don’t like.

This glitch has me terrified that all my disgusting Temporal Blade buffs will vanish in an instant. But I keep playing. I should really switch back to AC or something until they work this shit out. But AC does not own nearly this hard.

It’s interesting that black-and-white has become a way to underline the cultural standing of artsier-than-usual genre movies.

I’m in my 30s and I’ve barely seen any black and white movies.
