The idea that Nintendo employs people to professional defend their copyright, and those people’s method of finding infringements involves just refreshing Kotaku until they find things folks are heavily advertising on other platforms (hence the coverage on this site), is the most consistently idiotic take this site has.

While that was definitely my original idea, it could still work with a new leader or whatever they do in this version trying to live up to a predecessor that opened borders and having a weird pseudo mentor figure in Victor.

Man, still wish so much that Black Panther 2's villain was Dr. Doom. Imagine if this other seemingly backwater country that secretly housed incredible magic and science was inspired by Wakanda to enter the world stage, but this time the leader doesn’t have altruistic intentions. Introducing Victor as someone who’s…

I just don’t think we’re ever gonna get actual Reed (the patronizing stick in the mud) in a movie like this, and if you’re going for charming, I guess Krasinski works. But I’m rull sad it’s not gonna be Bill Hader, a dude who could toe the line between playing an actual asshole but making it funny enough for the MCU’s…

Oh for sure, you’ll always have stans of both genders, but let’s not pretend like there isn’t a gigantic gathering of incel support looking to Depp as a way to silence abused women as fakers.

See, I knew folks would be smug idiots trying to sound clever when I asked this, so I wrote a whole aside explaining that I know the actual real world reality and was looking for the concrete in-universe reason behind the retcon to nip in the bud, and you still found a way to be a smug idiot trying to sound clever.

As someone who doesn’t watch in-universe: how, in-universe, do they explain that they’re going beyond the established lifespan of the character? I thought it was just 13 lives, and obviously the real answer is “they wanna keep making the show so that rule’s gonna change” but how is it explained?

Also the position of “she was abusive, therefore he did nothing wrong!” which is an insane take. By all accounts they’re both pieces of shit, but for some reason men on the internet are lining up to cast Depp as a hero.

Here, I’ll highlight the part you clearly missed:

Spoiler alert if you haven’t seen the movie, but it’s actually explained pretty well, and this is from someone who doesn’t give a shit about the characters in either comic or film form:

I usually hate portmanteaus

Not even you seem to be capable of doing so in your own article activating for shilling this scam, how on earth could you fill a whole article with it?

Walker’s response remains relevant even if he was accused of getting paid five bucks: exactly who would be surreptitiously paying anyone any amount of money to badmouth this scam?

Going from a busted game to a dime-a-dozen shooter isn’t the rousing success you seem to think it is.

I’ll say it before and I’ll say it again: Barsanti writes like Miles Teller looks.

A nerdy white dude that thinks he’s funny but is actually just an asshole? Why I never!

I mean it’s subjective at this point but I generally find the original more enjoyable than the boring-ass copy/paste DICE game that is the new one. That it was this good from the start rather than trying to bilk as much money out of suckers from launch as possible makes it that much better.

2005 Battlefront II is arguably superior than the newer iteration. No lootboxes and actually worked from Day 1.

Enh, when this happened it wasn’t known yet that they were any more toxic than other fighting game fandoms; of course we now know it was a dump truck just stuffed to the brim with predators, but back then there’s no way Nintendo was aware.

Man, I thought that style looked familiar. Makes me so nostalgic, loved the Gran and ND Stevenson era of long-form webcomics and so pumped they’re continuing to put out great work.
