What an asinine response. “I haven’t seen the movie yet, but maybe it’s good and you’re just dumb?”

While it’s always good to read news on what director Villeneuve is up to, sadly, whenever I read about him I always lament the passing away of the great composer, Jóhann Jóhannsson. If he had been around and picked to work on Dune, well, “wow” is all I can think of. Maybe Trent Reznor and Atticus Ross could step in?

Did you see the Pixar movie Coco?

‘I went to Pearl Harbor to see the little fishies swim in the sparkling blue water and took great pleasure in fishing for saltwater varieties and windsurfing. Hmm? WWII? Attack on Pearl Harbor? I don’t know anything about that. The place was just perfect for my holiday trip. Why the fuck should I have to care about…

There’s a saying, “To be African American is to be African without history and American without privilege.”

i really struggled with trying to define blackness—it’s a largely designation given to us, rather than one that comes from our own cultural experience. displacement from africa seems important, but it doesn’t account for every facet of the black experience, including immigrants to other countries from africa. not…

A Devolver representative tells Kotaku “this is stupid”

I mean, on one hand there’s stuff like this, but on the other, I’ve played more incredible games over the past couple of years than I ever have before.

It’s more convenient than ‘person who is straight and not trans’, if it makes you really uncomfortable, you should probably interrogate your own feelings as to why that is, and then consider how literally everyone who isn’t ‘straight and not trans’ might feel like when they’re being discussed

I think this is one of those, “When you’re used to privilege, equality feels like persecution,” situations.

They said that someone quit after being harassed. So far that remains true. The new information is “oh, they were correct about the issue that led to the harassment”.

Yes, portraying villains as anything but one dimensional bad guys getting a kid killed is totally a valid and real concern based on how the world really works.

“He served his time, he deserves a second chance!” - Says a group of males who feel persecuted that this guy was banned.

Fuck him. Whether his domestic abuse was a bit (it wasn’t), that doesn’t make it okay to stream such behavior. 

My gut reaction was “Gee, thanks for fucking up Carmen by making her a good guy” - but then I thought that if they go the Lupin the III route, that could work. Yeah, she’s a thief and an outlaw with her own Inspector Javert chasing her, but she’s doing it for the thrill and steals (or otherwise upsets the plans) from m…

A friend posted a link toour Shadowrun group that the show was being reimagined as Sandiego stealing museum items and returning them to the indigenous people they were taken from. That felt too bold for a mainstream cartoon premise to me, but I’m disappointed nonetheless that it’s so tame.

So following that convention she’d be... Powser? Beach? Bowsette just sounds better than either of those.

If you strike me down, I will become more powerful then you can possibly imagine.

They have to save some stuff for the sequel which I would bet money is at least half Miles Morales gameplay given how the main story of the game ended between he and Peter. There is no way the sequel doesn’t focus on their relationship which means any Miles-based costuming and DLCwill be saved for his outing as S-M in…

“It’s a fantastic illustration, which seemed to strongly influence one of the best moments of the film.”
