Why is there a random Jamie Foxx ego-stroking moment there at the end?

brb, gonna go do some progress

Steve Meretsky is the closest thing to a rockstar designer that Infocom ever had, so you need to play some of his stuff. Planetfall may be the very first computer game I ever played.

The MCU could also maybe plan for a whole Black Widow trilogy, like her male contemporaries got, instead of a one-off.

I’d say the message is more like “racism is simply two groups of exactly equal influence and power who hate each other irrationally,” which is definitely off nowadays.

Funnily enough, they didn’t, at least not in this franchise. The fangirls were aaaall about Jack Sparrow.

But that’s exactly what makes POTC unique amongst its theme park ride-inspired peers. None of those other movies could draw inspiration from a long-dormant film genre that was ripe for a revival. In fact, that’s arguably at least one of the reasons why it became a successful franchise while all the others flopped.…

POTC was very popular among teen girls actually. There was a lot of fangirl shipping of Jack Sparrow and Elizabeth Turner. I don’t know if that fanbase is still around or if Twilight took over them all.

This seems unfair. The ride aside, old-fashioned pirate swashbuckler movies are definitely a thing that could inspire creative passion in the people making these movies. I won’t argue that the franchise has gone stale, but a revival of it could certainly go the Douglas Fairbanks-Errol Flynn-Burt Lancaster route rather…

‘Sall good.

I already said Sisko is the exception.

Actually, I think it’d be very easy to turn Star Trek into a right-wing fantasy.

More to the point, please never let me meet the black person

The budding songwriter tells everyone that she wrote six songs... but she actually wrote seven! Why did she keep that last song secret?? And what is it about???

io9 has excellent reviews of the entire series here, although they do tend to get a bit reverent.

It does appear that the TV series will take a number of major characters that were originally male and reenvision them as women.

The caption on that second photo is Pearl saying good morning, good health and contentment to everyone, so maybe don’t project your own ill temper on what looks like a perfectly friendly cat, Reid.

So I vaguely remember Warrior Nun Areala, the very ‘90s comicbook that this show is based on. I went to look it up on Wikipedia, and wow, that entry was clearly written by a fan.

Alright. How do I play The Last of Us on PC?

I suspect projection has a lot to do with it. They want to be him and have what he has - the wealth, the beautiful wife and daughter, the reputation as a self-made billionaire, the confidence to speak with his stupidly arrogant bravado.
