Tried to get caught up on this show - just finished episode six of the first season, and it is quite possibly one of the all time worst shows I’ve ever sat through. Even if you ignore all the ways it doesn’t work as Star Trek—if you lay all that aside and just try and take it as a self-contained show on its own…

Howl’s Moving Castle is better dub than sub because Calicifer’s Japanese VA has the most aggravatingly irritating voice on the planet.

Whatever you might think of Billy Crystal, at least you’re not listening to whatever the heck Tatsuya Gashuin was trying to do. Nails on a chalkboard.

I’d also put forward Haruhi…

The prequels are fantastic.

If you’ve just watched Rise of Skywalker.

No. What I am saying is that the land was functionally worthless in its era and that they had no way of knowing how valuable oil would be generations after they were all dead, since there was no oil industry an they did not know the oil was there in any case.

You also would have gotten rid of it, because you, unless I…

I always want to take that as our proudest moment, but it’s not actually true. Our *side* burned down the White House, but if memory serves it was British Army regulars shipped over directly from Spain after Wellington wrapped-up the Peninsular war. The Empire got bored with letting America pretend it was a real…

You could enter essentially every building in Morrowind, Oblivion, and Skyrim if memory serves, although to what extent you want to count their non-urban-exclusive environments as ‘urban’ is, of course, up for debate.

But then most of GTA V isn’t urban either, and you counted that.

This article has a bizarre tone of “We all know they are monsters now but obviously I will keep watching them because [no reason given].”

“In the context of factoids like this...”

Facts. “In the context of facts like this...”A ‘factoid’ is that which looks like a fact but isn’t one, as an asteroid looks like a star but isn’t one. And even if, as we seemingly must, factoid now is just a stupid synonym for ‘trivia’ or ‘short fact’ (which is how you’re…

That was more exciting, emotional, heartfelt, and visually coherent than all of Star Trek: Picard and man I wish I was joking.

You are possibly the only person alive who thinks so. I have never heard anyone complain about season 4 before.

As someone currently choking on the hateful wretchedness of Star Trek: Picard, man, I wish that show was playing it safe. I’d much rather see a doddering Picard go through the motions on a starship bridge than watch beloved character after character be viscerally disembowelled while boring newbies whose names I don’t…

As so often happens, the announcement of a name change or a closure is the first time I hear of a product.

3 I’m not worried about.

4, on the other hand...

“Joh Yowza”? What bad CGI Special Edition garbage is this? Who allows that on their screen? Pshaw! And Harumph!

Thank. Christ.

Not to begrudge Elden it’s success or anything, but (as with me) when you can’t play a game and will in no way be financially able to do so any time soon, seeing it spoken of to death everywhere you go just starts to weigh on you. I get it, you’re all off having a stupendous time Eldening Rings or…

I was not waiting for this, did not need this, and Clone Wars does a pretty decent job of putting everything you need to know about Ventress on the screen, to the point where I wasn’t aware there was any damn mystery to the matter.

The idea that we are still indebted to call Rowling a great worldbuilder in the face of years of really shitty worldbuilding is inexplicable. The Philosopher’s Stone is a sweet little Faerie story that is uncomplicated and pretty well crafted: but it’s not a strong foundation on which to build a series that wants to…

See, that’s so odd to me - not only did I find none of the songs in Encanto memorable, but that’s the one that probably had the least impact on me. I don’t remember a note, and everyone’s going around calling it the next Let It Go.

The only song that did stick with me was the first one, and that’s only because I had to…

Article: “A game that was not well-received on launch but has improved somewhat through updates with more planned for the future.”

Cyberpunk fans: “BIASED HATE-SCREED! UNFAIR!”

Encanto was very pretty movie that made no innovations, pushed no envelopes, tried nothing new, and will not stand the test of time.
