LINK. The feminine form of Link is just LINK - it’s not a goddamn gendered name you lunatics.

Why is Scuttle, a bird, simply not eating all the other characters?

I encountered the Bojack Horseman parody first, then saw this unknown actress give a grounded and wonderful performance in a stellar film called The Farewell, then had the horror of enduring the movie Shang Chi and discovering there was a ‘comedian’ I was unaware of whom Bojack Horseman clearly parodying and she gave

And this is my friend, Guy. And my Japanese friend, Boko.

“The film’s stacked voice cast also includes Elizabeth Banks as Nanjiani’s more adventerous wife, plus Carol Kane, Awkwafina, Certified Toad Keegan-Michael Key, and Prime Should Have Been Mario Candidate Danny DeVito”

HIRE REAL FUCKING VOICE ACTORS HIRE REAL FUCKING VOICE ACTORS HIRE REAL FUCKING VOICE ACTORS HIRE REAL

It does, though. I’ve watched every season of the Clone Wars where Anakin Skywalker got told-off by his Jedi masters for having emotions that they themselves constantly display - but being constantly smug and quipping don’t count as emotional reactions, apparently. I watch a Jedi passionately insist that Jedi do not

I thought we agreed not to call a female Link ‘Linkle’ again.

Because it’s terrible.

The thing about the broader Star Wars canon (i.e. everything past the OT trilogy) is that it repeatedly demonstrates that the Jedi were buffoons and that being a Jedi sucks, something that the franchise as a whole then... bizarrely ignores and continually hypes of Jedi despite the textually evidence being overwhelming

Was really excited to play the first game, picked it up in a PS4 sale a month or so back. Naturally, it doesn’t run, with audio constantly cutting out, cutscenes diesinking, and the entire game generally being rendered unplayable via these audio hitches. Looking it up, this seems to have been a common complaint for

What I find more amazing is the number of people angrily defending the right of megacorporations to produce and sell them mediocre dogshit. You saw this with the Mario movie, as a huge number of people crawled out of the woodwork to take umbrage at the idea that people would be upset that the movie was lousy: they had

The stuff with Chang in season 3 is bad.

There, I said it.

We don’t get the accessibility patch either.

It’s fine, the laws of war aren’t retroactive to my knowledge.

It’s the button the emperor uses to tell the one gladiator to kill the other gladiator.

Much prefer the blown-our pastels, they’re bizarre and ephemeral. The actual art is over-saturated.

I’d like to lay aside the controversy about JK Rowling’s political beliefs for minute to instead focus on how Quidditch is a terrible fucking game with horrid rules and her worldbuilding is lazy dogshit not worth the hagiography of its fans.

No you’re right and you should say it: this looks labour-intensive and hideous.

I remember sitting through Captain Marvel going ‘why is everyone comfortably praising a movie you can’t fucking see’?

Film literacy is so low that people genuinely don’t notice bad editing and bad lighting because they have no conception that it might be otherwise. It’s like Americans thinking hot house tomatoes in Walm

The original books were very political, it’s just that Matilda Joslyn Gage’s son-in-law Frank L. Baum’s proto-feminist manifesto doesn’t read as such to anyone over a hundred years on.

I take your point but jokes aside Black Window was the only good Phase 4 movie.
