the teaser was pretty much meant to show off the environments, and if you watch it at 0.5 x speed and focus on the details, and if you appreciated the kind of impressionistic realism the first 2 games excelled at it’s very exciting to see these settings.

planning to watch ASAP, trying to avoid trailers reviews and all that, i like Nolan as much as any red blooded earthling that hasn’t been to the theaters since Interstellar (ok I did go watch force awakens)

this will definitely be the national sport of America 50 years from now

you bought nintendo stock but didn’t hold onto it for the switch launch and potential sales window?

i’m only interested in the super famicom, which is what i had when i was a kid and i think is objectively better in every way, unless you insist on thin

the ironic thing is after Bush, France became the mideast Hawk and Obama was attempting damage control

don’t challenge people to physical contests if you’re an obese 70 year old man

do a lot of women play tekken professionally now?

wow this puts the Blue Train from South Africa to shame. I was pretty sure that was as luxurious as trains were ever going to get.

It’s weird that Mark from peep show had a line where he basically said the same thing about that as Dawkins. I picture Dawkins and Mark Corrigan being kindred spirits, having a grand old time chatting about their shared interests in mundane historical trivia and misogyny.
