I can’t imagine how surreal is has to be to go from creating a fictional war ravaged version of Ukraine to living in a real one. I wish their whole team safety during this time. Slava Ukraini. 

I just think the WNBA is possibly one of the poorest examples of pay disparity. It’s really hard to care about the wealth of someone who is making more money than 94% of us without ever setting foot outside the country.

“shoehorn your same tired clickbait “Why don’t the women get paid as much as the men who generate 100x the revenue they do?”

I’m sure the writers here don’t relish being pitted against one another, but this was so much better than the previous pieces on Griner.

Yes, Woody has a right to tell his story, and no one took that right away. He does not have a right to it being published by a major publisher.

Hold on, I’ve been preparing this one for a while.

Everyone, clearly this person has a point to make so lets talk it out and use some logic. On one hand we have a link to a piece of secondary merchandise that may or may not be official sanctioned by the creator that says Yamato identifies as a woman. On the other side we have actual manga pages from the creator that…

I mean, both Gilliam and Cleese have become egocentric, humorless bores  who can’t handle any threat to the status quo, and Monty Python used to dump on those easy targets on a regular basis.

To be fair...they really didn’t handle the previous twenty centuries very well either, but they escaped scrutiny.

She’s got 54 acting credits so probably has more experience of working with various directors that you.

Well Cobra Kai is pretty great... but this is a whole different kind of project for them.

As much as those odds, and that system, are absurd (including how bad the “pity” system is). . . I can’t help but think that the whole attitude shown by the quote:

dont buy it? not every game is for you, i played re4 and skyrim once. And i dont plan to play this either my back log is so long. You gotta see it from a sales perspective, remakes cost less to make and it generates money. of course its boring. ignore it and maybe they will stop

Yep - again, people around here seem deeply confused as to how the executive branch works. Executive orders are never more than a stopgap.

Consideriing the TLOU show is coming to HBO (likely) by the end of this year or by spring 2023, I could see a huge market for this. Much like how Game of Thrones skyrocketed the ASOIAF book sales.

I’d prefer a LoD remake myself, but to compare them seems rather ridiculous. LoD was actually pretty successful for the time, selling about 2m units, but The Last of Us has sold around 20m units. It’s not surprising they’re more interested in the latter.

The attention grabbing symbols they’re using at their protests aren’t nuanced enough, you say? They’re protesting in major media markets where they can more easily recruit people to show up instead of smaller ones you say? They disagree on strategy with groups you favor more but not on any goals you say? Well, to hell…

Yeah....it’s no where near as simple as you’re making it. Particularly in an industry like video games, I imagine there was a point where the GB crew couldn’t really do this on their own. Particularly if they want to maintain access, be able to get good equipment, and to pay people.

Oh, I think there’s still a market for physical games, new and pre-owned. But I definitely think that segment of consumers is shrinking. I used to be very pro-physical media, but in the past couple years have transitioned almost entirely to digital downloads. I definitely think there’s no justification for GameStop to…
