Unless a game’s protagonist gender is explicitly defined in the game’s lore and story... its whatever the hell you want it to be. A projection of yourself an escapist version what you might want to be or simply role-playing a complete opposite of yourself.

I assumed they watched Nanette so they were under the impression she was not a comedian.  

It’s interesting how in the span of only a few years, Gadsby’s whole shtick (once thought by critics to be cutting-edge) now just seems like a hopelessly outdated relic of the previous decade. Their “TED Talk about trauma disguised as a stand-up routine” approach was never going to be the future of comedy, as overly…

I didn’t hate it, I just don’t know if you can call something a “comedy” show if the main purpose or intent of the substantive content isn’t to make people laugh. I won’t argue against people whossay she’s a skilled performer, masterfully juggles tension, or that she can be funny when she wants to be—I’m just saying…

I don’t know, make tasteless, intensely problematic, and hopelessly outmoded prison rape jokes, thinking they’re funny in 2023?

Wouldn’t it be wild if they didn’t? If the story did a sudden right turn and went deep into anti-miscegenation about fire and water people?

That would at least be surprising.

Every word they said could have been true but they couldn't have been more of a dick saying it if he'd called her sweetheart. 

Tarantino is one of those “it it’s not done like they did it in the 50's and 60's, it’s not cinema.”

Well in Sing/Sing 2 it was Taron Edgerton and Peter Serofinawitz...whats your point?

It feels like a chicken and egg situation, though. Outside of some desperate experiments in the middle of the pandemic, there are only like five movies ever with a budget north of $150 million that went straight to streaming. So yeah, it’s rare for a streaming only release to really blow up, but they’re also never the…

Something people need to be reminded of (even myself, occasionally, i admit)-things exist even if you personally havent heard of them.

The quotes do say enough.  QT sounds like Muskrat whining that remote work isn’t real work, or your grandfather complaining that it’s not real news unless it was printed in a newspaper.  Real “old man yells at cloud” stuff.

I think Tarantino just has those arguments in the shower where you always win against what you imagine someone would say, and maybe thinks they’re actually happening because of how vividly they appear in his head.

Kids dont know how lucky they are these days. I was beat up for carrying a Nintendo Power magazine in my school library. Now beautiful actresses are streaming video games and people complain.

The man. The chin. The non-existent career.

Casper Van Dien, there’s a name

Wait, Casper van Dien has a kid and she's an actress/streamer? 

AVClub commenters either A) despise the website or B) are the most boilerplate MSNBC-brained dorks imaginable without a single nuanced opinion about anything. I don’t see any reason a writer here would listen to them in either case.

Some schools.. (not all) do provide a microwave for kids to warm up their food brought from home.. So it may not be as bad as you think..

Still.. That seems like a lot for lunch.. I feel sorry for her after lunch teacher.
