I don’t care about this specifically, but the delays are fine by me in general, my understanding is that the Japanese animation industry is even more backbreaking than the American one, so anything that gives those poor folks a break is a thumbs up. 

Saw him on a panel one. Someone asked him what he felt his greatest achievement was, and he basically said it was watching his son break into comic books, and how proud it made him. 

A friend of mine are discussing this and they pointed out that 40K and Judge Dredd have a lot of the same influences and a lot of the same problems. They are both hyper-satirical parodies of fascist states that somehow get romanticized by their fan-bases.

All of the Dunesplaining below aside, I get you. The scene where they are both stripping down naked, Paul’s turn away read less to me like a kid giving his mom some privacy and more like someone worried they might pop a boner at any second.

The folks who make Lancer just released the playtest rules for their fantasy equivalent: Icon. It plays very similarly, but in a fantasy-punk world, and contains a lot of fun allusions to Final Fantasy, including giving characters limit breaks. All the different classes seem like allusions to different fantasy…

Lot of bootlickers in the comments.

That looks like a pretty comics accurate Robbie Reys Ghostrider. He has a slightly more anime-inspired look, and he’s often depicted as short, either because he’s a teenager, or because he’s Hispanic and a lot of Hispanic people are a little shorter than average, IDK. Also he drives a kickass charger instead of riding…

If capitalism worked as advertised, someone would open up an 80 cent store and put them all out of business.

In most places, once they have you for hiding money, they are allowed to go over every dollar you’ve ever spent to figure out where you might be hiding it. And visiting people’s homes looking for cash or hard valuables (art, jewelry, etc) that might be being used to store wealth instead of bank accounts, isn’t common,…

Based on the article, it sounds like they were deliberately concealing money. It wasn’t even that they were using dodgy tax practices (fake deductions, etc), it was that they were lying about how profitable their businesses were, and trying to funnel away cash where no one could find out about it. 

People have a similar debate about film. Almost every film is shot in such a way that you are supposed to experience it in a theatre, and some films actually have very specific technical accommodations that the filmmakers would like you to have access to when you are viewing the film (sound, color-grading, whatever).…

The whole time I was reading the article, I kept checking the date to make sure this wasn’t an April Fools bit, that’s how wild this seems to me. 

See also the original Conan the Barbarian movie, which the villain spouting very similiar bullshit:

“People are nice.”

Except in the comments to this article apparently. What a pack of dicks. 

The Bing Bong thing actually pisses me off because I can see it coming and it still gets me. Like, I understand that’s good craftsmanship, but unlike a lot of the rest of the movie, which works whether or not it evokes a particular feeling, that whole character’s arc only exists to hijack your feelings and their is…

Looking at the gif, that doesn’t look like a spinning heel kick. The other guy actually has his hand up guarding the angle you would expect the heel to come from. That looks like a high back-kick. Dude basically spun 180 and mule-kicked the guy in the face.

I remember a time when these cheap, debasing cash grabs use to bother me. I guess part of me realized that even the most sacred cows of mainstream entertainment were still profit-seeking ventures, so the fact that they become parodies of themselves over time in the name of monetization isn’t a betrayal so much as a…

YOU GOT THE BAD ENDING!?!?!

Wow, I thought that was impossible.

I didn’t know about the harassment thing. That’s a bummer and should probably be reported on more. That said, this movie was heartbreakingly beautiful, and if you don’t think so, it might be a sign you have no soul. http://www.filmfreakcentral.net/ffc/2016/09/telluride-16-manchester-by-the-sea.html#more
