The Icewind Dale trilogy is... pretty goddamn awful. I keep meaning to give him more a chance myself. I liked Daughter of the Drow, but he didn’t write that, Elaine Cunningham did.

It was over $900 CAD last I checked.
“...which is directed by Peter Sohn (The Good Dinosaur)“
The Good Dinosaur, which is Pixar’s worst movie by a country mile. Cars 2 fatures a henious sequence of LArry the Cable Guy making jokes about Japanese people, and that nightmare trash fire of a movie still didn’t make me as bored and angry as The Good Dinosaur.
It…
THe Holiday Special is in every way a better movie than Rise of Skywalker.
This is not because it is secretly some kind of under-appreciated masterpiece, just that as a work of narrative it is far more cohesive and satisfying.
The Foundling and Other Tales is the only Lloyd Alexander I’ve ever read, but that opening story about the foundling and the book of wisdom has haunted me since childhood.
I mean not to blunt but practically all nerd shit is a bubble. This isn’t housing or grain or steel: it’s little bits of coloured paper with drawing and text on them. Its as true with anime figure as with Pokémon cards: spectualive bubbles based on totally artificial rarity, exchange value at its most naked. As…
I burned out at the end of Stormblood. It just made me SAD and ANGRY. Not a problem with the writing - while not as good as Heavensward, it had its moments - but I was upset at how things shook out. Need to go back.
I always keeps a few extra David Spades on hand for emergencies.
No Skipper Dan, no Frank’s 2000 Inch TV, no Biggest Ball of Twine in Minnesota? Humbug.
My perennial Albuquerque story is that I had Running with Scissors on an audio cassette that had been taped for me by a friend, and the recording cut off exactly as Weird Al says “Guy told me he hadn’t had a bite in three days.…
I think I’ve operated on the understanding that Whose Line was cancelled five years ago for the last ten years. Every time I’ve seen these ‘newer’ clips I’ve just assumed they were from reunion specials.
It’s so sad they never made anything past the pilot.
As they will continue to grumble about this, I will continue to point out that slideshows are a shit format and your bosses should feel like shit for making you do them.
Yahoo! Screen killed Yahoo! Screen.
Pity: this is the exact kind of caricature-style quasi-realism I knew most from Mad and Cracked magazines growing-up, and I’ve always found it really off-putting.
And I see them too.
In the vast landfill in the desert where all Funko-Pops belong.
I have been playing KSP for that long too.
I have never once been good at it.
Not a complaint, mind, just a statement of fact. I love KSP. I have never once been any good at it at all. This makes me sad.
Yeah but 15 years or more on Star Oceans ‘Til The End of Time is still one of the worst games I’ve ever played so obviously my brief experience with it invalidates the entirety of the franchise Q.E.D.
Xenosaga is better than Star Ocean so clearly your other opinions are equally suspect. (Source: played some Xenosaga 1 and Star Ocean ‘Til The End Of Time probably 15 yers ago, analysis is therefore infallible.)
I have always been grateful that my desperately poor lefty parents raised me in the 90s without Disney merch, having nothing but a couple of Disney films on VHS. From my earliest childhood there was always engrained in me a distrust towards Disney and what they offered. Partly this was economically defensive: they…
