I’m cracking up that Bayonetta got a Prude Mode before any of the Souls-likes have embraced an easy mode (unless ranged builds count).

Like Ben Shapiro, these are who dumb people think are smart people.

There’s something about transphobia that results in maximum brain rot. I don’t know what in particular about the topic of trans people in particular causes it, but it really does just reduce people to incomprehensible savages screaming catchphrases into the void. It’s on par with cryptobros in terms of jargon-laden…

How does the article not make this joke? The mind boggles.

Looking forward to this. Reminds me of all the AA games we used to get during the X360/PS3 days.

Listen, in this writer’s opinion, the man will be lucky if 500 people manage to see his next flick, and it has nothing to do with straight to streaming release, and everything to do with the allegations levied against him by daughter Dylan Farrow.

the complaint about things being too long is a bit ridiculous. it’s not like the person making an hour long video about Game X being dog shit is keeping someone from finding the 5 minute article or video.

they’re making it because people want it.

If you can’t tell me why X show sucks in 5 minutes, you need to rethink your argument, or maybe drop one of the 239 nitpick points and stick to the big ones.

One resigns and a second is fired, the latter almost immediately launching a YouTube channel called “Tread On Me”, which covers everything from men’s rights to anti-vaccine tirades to 37-minute long critiques of women in superhero films.

Huh, was the A.V. Club petulantly sniping at Joker a thing? Unlike most of the known universe that liked the movie?

Why do we need to go see this derivative, pandering bullshit in the theater when we can just watch 1925's The Lost World literally whenever we want from the comfort of the couch?

Anyone who complains about “Unobtainium” in Avatar( even though that is an actual slang term ) should refuse to see any movie that has a large dinosaur named “Gigantosaurus” in it based on principals alone.

Yeah, I’m just bored as hell.

Opinions like this seem somewhat nostalgia driven. [...] This film clearly isn’t for you so stop acting like it was supposed to be. Jeez.

Randomly last summer when I saw The Suicide Squad the theatre didn’t have the A.C. on. So uncomfortable.

“Everything you don’t need to give a shit about because you’re there for dinosaurs and air conditioning, not the stupid fucking world-building.”

I will add that I thoroughly appreciated The Card Counter, one of Schrader’s most recent films that I watched for Oscar Isaac and found to be very well done.

Yeah, this article is making Schrader sound like Alan Moore, when his actual position does not seem especially surprising or even grudging. The fact that an artist of Schrader’s stature still makes frank and unguarded internet posts is a gift, so let’s not talk about him like he’s some kind of lunatic.

It’s too bad. This series was not exactly good, but it was a striking mish-mash of Ridley Scott’s personal obsessions with a strong enough cast to make all the surreal noodling and biblical portent feel surprisingly like an actual story.
