The fact that they are going with Margot Robbie and Ryan Gosling and Greta Grewig as the director, it’s obvious that they are trying to give this movie some legitimacy.

“She likely would not menstruate...”

as if Gerwig isn’t already an incredibly offbeat choice compared to the previous one

He-Man action figures also aren’t really to scale.  Don’t even get me started on Legos.  Have you seen those hips?

and readily admits the doll’s head, hands and some other features are not to scale.”

Lot of people in this thread convinced Susan Sarandon actually caused Donald Trump to become President

I think the obvious implication was “in the context of game preservation,” but by all means keep wagging your finger. 

It’s not that they aren’t profitable - it’s that their growth is starting to plateau. They have to grow their profits every year because that’s what businesses are expected to do, and they’ve pretty much gotten every subscriber that they’re going to have.

Because I had two girls who were the right ages when it went up on Netflix, the “Barbie: Life in the Dreamhouse” animated series from a few years back was suprisingly and exactly this. It wasn’t so much a full deconstruction, but it was definitely self-aware and surprisingly funny (at least to an exhausted parent).

I don’t get the sense that anyone knows what they want out of a Barbie movie—well, aside from Mattel, who presumably want it to sell dolls. I’m guessing they’re shooting for an Enchanted-style (partial) deconstruction that pokes (extremely gentle) fun at the premise without invalidating it, because hey, dolls to sell.

Whether you’re bothered by the DLC being ripped from the mobile game or not, it’s hard to argue that Nintendo didn’t phone it in by doing so. 

What the heck is “deciduous sound design” ?? It’s a tree-t for the ears? It falls flat in the fall? You want to leave it alone? It really branches out? It’s got a real phloem? It harkens back to the roots of gaming? It’s knot very good? I’m so confused!

Kind of interesting that much of Metroid’s fauna is literally aggroed against you, just in the way (more true on the 2D games than Prime).

Long story short: what if more 2D side-scrolling action games focused on challenges besides killing stuff?

A disaster happens and suddenly everyone (not an attack on you, the exact opposite - referring to the people you’re speaking about) is a structural engineer and an infectious diseases specialist and an expert in whatever calamity happened next.

I’m still salty that George Harrison and the Flaming Lips got screwed for their respective songs kinda sorta sounding like older songs. They weren’t nearly as rip-offish as Dani California by RHCP to Mary Jane’s Last Dance; or the Offspring’s Days Go By was to Times Like These

Elvis Costello with the right take.

It’s weird because I don’t hear Misery business in this, but, I definitely hear Paramore in the Willow song “transparent soul” so are they going to come for her now

That Marvin Gaye lawsuit is going to have a terrible impact on the music industry going forward.
