Yeah, Aronofsky is one of like four people who can get major studio money to do something that, whatever it turns out to be, isn’t going to look like anything else in its genre.  He’s more interesting in failure than a lot of more traditional directors are in success.

mother! was the best movie of 2017. Audiences be crazy 

Kotaku has always had a broad scope, ever since its inception. Arguably it used to be even more oddball stuff in the past, but after cutbacks and so on (thanks to our friendly neighborhood private equity corporate thieves running this place), much of the Otaku stuff has gone by the wayside, sadly.

How about you just skip news posts that don’t interest you?

Lol imagine getting upset about one article that didn't even need to be read if the person didnt want to. 

Hey, then you know something? You could just not fucking click on it and move on with your life like I do when a pokemon article pops up. Problem fucking solved homeboy!

a buddy just sent me the ‘oh boy sleep! that’s where i’m a viking!’ thread and i was shocked to learn it’s widely thought that ralph was saying ‘i’m a viking at sleeping’, not ‘when i sleep i dream i’m a viking’, which to me is the only possible interpretation.

“People who make money off capitalistic goods.” Buddy, your class analysis is severely wanting. Commerce != capitalism. Frankly you had my ire at “these updates are relatively easy to do”, which just tells me you’ve never created anything of value in your life, but descending that into a painfully off-base…

If Whedon really wanted to scare Gadot, he would have sent a shoeless, brown child carrying a piece of rubble from his village that was just bulldozed. That, apparently, is terrifying to the IDF.

5 million people is over twice as many as the number of people who watch professional wrestling every week. It’s more than the number of people who watched the American Music Awards this weekend, and it’s about the same number of people who watch NCIS every week. It’s almost 4 times more than the number of people who…
