I see absolutely nothing wrong with this. Confederate monuments should not exist anywhere outside of museums. They’re participation trophies for treasonous seditionists and pretty much every single one was built in the years after the Civil War, usually during things like Jim Crow or the Civil Rights movement (which…

Between that and the fact the store still doesn’t surface important information, like whether or not a game supports cloud-saves, that really make it feel like a vastly inferior storefront.

I only poke my head into the Epic Games Store maybe once a week, just to claim the free game. I haven’t played any of them of course, but I figure it doesn’t hurt to have a stash of several dozen free games on hand (some of them pretty good titles too!) in case of an emergency.

I imagine a lot of people are going to be somewhere between annoyed and angry that Venture Bros. got canceled yet Birdgirl exists.

It’s not so much about him as it is about a pattern of corporate behavior that suggests those who have real power within Acti/Blizz prefer a climate of fascism and authoritarianism. Hence, collecting a group of nefarious individuals (i.e. a former torture apologist being responsible for ‘compliance’ seems dubious)…

He abused authority, he shouldn’t be given a position of authority again. The fact that you’re pretending this is a really complex or confusing idea says a lot about YOU.

Brian is a rare talent, and the perfect fit for Activision Blizzard; his unparalleled combination of business, military, and government experience makes him ideally suited to accelerate our organizational transformation and deliver on great opportunities for future growth.

Fuck Pompeo and anyone who associates with that fat sack of dogshit.

Fuck this guy and no amount of complaining about his pay is ever going to change anything.

It always boggles my mind that these super rich types don’t get a better haircut and spend a few days a week at the gym. That would do wonders for a lot of them. Like, wtf else are Donald Trump’s kids doing that they can justify the way they look?

Which isn’t to say that we should shame people for how they look. But…

We need laws setting CEO income caps. We’ve passed the point of absurd. Fuck this, fuck the rich, and fuck anyone who defends the idea that a single human “deserves” this level of wealth while the rest of the country plummets through one once-in-a-lifetime economic crash after another.

I honestly think this movie is less meant to be a movie and more an edgelord parade of fan service. 

Zach Snyder’s entire career can be summed up like this:

Hey, fellow filmwatching fellows! My college friends and I realized that this is one totally boss and radical experience. Can’t wait to spend tomorrow watching it again! It’s lit af.

I’m waiting for the inevitable “THIS ISN’T THE REAL SNYDER CUT!” after this movie disappoints.

I wonder how soon a #RealSnyderCut campaign will start. 

“Every scene is directed the same way, as though it were taking place on Mount Olympus: A wet mop hits the floor like Excalibur, while a sesame seed plummets for a small eternity during an at least relevantly slow-mo (and restored) introduction for Miller’s neurotic speed-demon rookie.”

Oh, it won’t go away for a while. There’ll be followup articles about Snyder stans throwing hissy fits about the negative critical reaction; articles about how many people ostensibly watched the Snyder Cut on HBO MAX; articles dissecting weird moments and easter eggs; at least one For Your Consideration article…

My one hope for all of this: I never have to hear about the fucking Snyder Cut again. I generally try not to yuck other people’s yum. I get that Snyder’s style is not appealing to me and that’s fine. Enjoy what you enjoy.

But damnit I am tired of hearing about this fucking thing.

Man, this was an interesting piece to read because I just felt so opposite from everything Ari said about the game....

Ever Crisis is EXACTLY the way i want to re-experience these games, and I am super excited for it.
