Yeah, this entire train wreck isn't long for this world. 

Does anyone know why they’re doing this?

whoa wtf.

the film’s version of Godzilla did not have much personality

Yeah, I’d say Beau is horror in the sense that there’s a relatable terror if you struggle with bad anxiety (and especially if, like me, you went in mostly blind but familiar with Aster’s actual horror movies) but even that fades away extremely quickly.

I mean, I would call “Beau is Afraid” a straight up comedy. A very dark comedy, leaning far into Lynch-esque subjectivity, but a comedy nonetheless. It was fucking hilarious. 

I dug Rise. I thought it was a better way to expand the universe over the usual dumbness and had some decent homages. In watching the behind the scenes, the director/writer Lee Cronin is a huge fan of the originals and went to bat thinking this was the best way to go in a new movie.

I didn’t think it brought me out of…

It’s mostly that the same bunch, for the most part, moved on to the next
“development in a comic book that is ‘raping’ their childhood.” Last I checked, they were still in the market for a new thing to piss and moan about now that the Moira X stuff has kind of faded into the background.

I liked it, I thought most of his run (except Carlie Cooper) was a lot of fun. Anyone mad that Peter was “dead” could not have been a long time reader. Obviously, Peter was coming back. Anyone who thought otherwise was an idiot.

Superior Spidey was great. I loved how he used traditional villain methods to do heroic stuff, I loved how over-the-top seriously he took himself, and I loved how he left all the other heroes going “What the hell is wrong with Peter lately?”

I was sure that the fight just before the “Do all the sidequests you want now because the next step is the point of no return” part would at least get rid of the Final Days sky spell so the end/postgame would have go back to pretty and more varied environments, but nope. They stay forever, and it sucks. I’m so sick of…

I agree, AI doppelgangers may be tasteless but if an actor knowingly licenses his likeness to a studio to do that, at least they’re entering into an agreement and the actor is getting compensated.

The AI that only exists because it scraped a bunch of free work from people who had no expectation that was going to happen…

And oh boy when I’m trying to defend my film what I definitely want to do is invoke the name of another big budget box office bomb

“as depressing as watching a talent like Jaume Collet-Serra make tedious shit like Jungle Cruise and Black Adam.”

Rogue Twisting Blade is literally the best newcomer build in the game right now. It’s monstrous from start to finish, you don’t need to adapt to the tiers of content you’re playing, just play the same way the whole time and you’ll annihilate the game.

Uh huh. Yeah.

I was way too stressed about those scissors on the ground for way too long. I’m always a fan of items like that being teased, when we saw that woodchipper I just knew that’s how it would all go down.

Hadn’t seen the trailer. Just watched it. I’m in.

friendly FYI that Morrison uses they/them pronouns 

I would argue that you’re simplifying in that you’re conflating things which don’t really warrant conflation.
