Honestly— and I say this as a big Suburban Legends fan, which is NOT something you're ever going to hear a lot— I don't care for their version. I like all of their other Disney covers, but their DuckTales theme just seems so dispassionate.

OH right, I forgot, any competent female character is a Mary Sue. Never mind the nephews were deus ex machinas in a good half of the original episodes— they always just HAPPENED to have a Junior Woodchuck badge covering this this oddly specific situation! But whatever. =)

I literally thought this same thing, word for word. She looks like she can fuck some people up.

Yeah, I guess I should've used a different word, since exclusive is kind of a loaded term in the video game world. I just don't personally see a lot of use in asking people to spend a lot of extra money for a system that still just plays all of the same games as something half the price.

Also, hasn't that kind of lost its luster as a marketing point by now? Console power made a difference 20 years ago, but now you'd be hard pressed to spot the differences between the Playstation and XBox versions of games.

The supreme irony of this announcement of THE MOST POWERFUL VIDEO GAME CONSOLE EVER is the only thing people seem to be excited about is that it will offer backwards compatibility with certain original XBox games.

It's not like this is in the deep past for Katy Perry, she's using POC as props in music and performances right now. This rings kind of hollow considering that.

Ugh. Never mind.

Ooooh, I gotcha. My misunderstanding!

I'm assuming, to be fair, but based on the fact that Microsoft didn't say that there would be some games that required an XBox One X— that's a pretty important piece of information that should be shared in an E3 announcement. So it makes me think it's like the PS4 Pro, an incremental upgrade that Sony was adamant

I dunno, I think the Switch does both really well. Like, REALLY well.

It's really all they've got. They've spent a LOT of money building the XBox brand, for better or for worse. It's also why Sony will never drop the Playstation naming scheme either.

So this won't have any exclusive games? It's just half a thousand dollars for something that will make your current games look and play slightly better? Really?

This review really nails the issues I had with this episode. My wife and I are both massive fans of Tina Fey in general and 30 Rock and Kimmy Schmidt specifically (the former is probably my all time favorite sitcom), but Tina Fey has some serious deficiencies in her acknowledgment of what causes controversy. She

The lower end of the Millennial generation is absolutely in college. But beyond that, I think the author is more acknowledging Fey and Carlock's own misunderstanding of the Millennial generation as being anyone younger than they are— you could see a lot of that in 30 Rock, too.

Because the only representation non-straight white males get in established franchises is as relatively obscure characters, relegated to the background. Not to say Zendaya's character won't be a lead, but it'd be so much more interesting and have a much larger impact in terms of representation if she was playing a

Meh, would've been more interesting if she had been Mary Jane.

His last album wasn't very good at all, so maybe this is for the best. Or at the very least the guy needs to hire a producer that's going to call him out when he's too far up his own butt.

I always saw Gotham and Metropolis as being two sides of New York City, especially since Gotham has long been a nickname for NYC. Dennis O'Neil once said that Gotham City was Manhattan below Fourteenth Street at eleven minutes past midnight on the coldest night in November, and Metropolis is Manhattan between 14th and

Agreed. It also doesn't make a lot of sense, given the timeline of everything. Some of those children are very young, but they're all supposed to have been on a flight that crash landed during whatever apocalyptic event preceded everything. So they're already degenerated that much, to the point where nearby an entire
