I was thinking “this is really well shot and looks super expensive” but it didn’t really get me emotionally like a lot of the other episodes have. 

This ignores everything outside of the interview itself, which is frequently a sticking point for me in these conversations. IGNORE the “last name got me an audition” talking point. You still get to live in the town where the industry exists. You still have a place to crash just about everywhere you go. You don’t have…

I absolutely get where you’re coming from. After it was over, I said to my wife, “That was basically a 40-minute montage” but I still loved it. Like I said, I get where you’re coming from but it got to a point where I was just in awe of the audacity and confidence in the creative team to keep up that conceit the…

Same. I’m seeing people get stuck for hours on bosses that took me only a few tries, and I don’t think I’m some God-tier player, or anything.

The irony in this for me is that a lot of the same people whining that it’s too hard are the same people that shout down and ‘git gud’ other people for saying the base game (and other Souls games) are too hard.

Sounds like they made it harder for the whiners to remain elitists.

RE>>>>”While The Boys is full of exaggerated characters—beyond the core cast, another big example is the neo-Nazi Stormfront, introduced in season two and played by Aya Cash—”

I’m honestly more excited for this than any actual Star Wars. Here’s my list of low hanging fruit:

I mean, it has to be called Spaceballs 2: The Search for More Money, right? In any case, I’m not sure this is a good idea — for one thing, John Candy won’t be in it and he was one of the best things about the original. Perhaps some genre parodies making fun of IP should just be left alone.

Ugh...but I don’t wanna fight Mohg! That’s probably the one thing keeping me from jumping into this right away. My endgame character probably can handle Mohg, but the damn blood swamp* his temple is in is a pain in the ass to travel through.

Season one was great but it is quite comedic how up its own ass it is now.  Maybe that’s in the criteria.

Apple already manages passwords via its iCloud Keychain, except it’s not the most seamless feature on iOS.

I’m enjoying the show but the cinematography is a bit off putting. It looks too clean and digital. The padawan’s makeup looks like she belongs on some late 90's sci fi show. I’m enjoying the characters and premise but it lacks some of the lighting/ lensing of something like Andor

Mae said don’t pull a light saber unless you are prepared to kill, which led to that whole “force fight” by Indira. But they used light sabers all the time for all kinds of things. The one dude used it as a flashlight.

Both The Daily Beast and Rolling Stone have published reviews saying this show is boring dreck, and they are both liberal leaning sites so they aren’t starting out with a known axe to grind.

They’re dumb opinions, but it’s not like he’s shouting them at you on the street. He’s saying then on a podcast, that by definition, people are listening to because they want to hear his opinions. You clicked this link because you wanted to read his opinions.

I’d say the Bible beats it by centuries. Many of its fans *today* are still... (ahem)... “obsessed with [its] continuity”.

oh i’m sure even back in the oral traditions days people were like ‘actually when i first heard about beowulf it went down differently’

I don’t care who returns so much as I want them to cut out a bunch of the gimmicks. I’m just tired of the multiple idols, steal a votes, double votes, lose a vote if you risk it, and any other crap you can think of. I just want a simpler game that focuses more on fun and/or interesting people and not one filled with…

People always dismissively ask this question as if they don’t already know the answer.
