Honestly, after this article, I’m not even surprised: https://www.vice.com/en/article/m7aep4/hanson-is-facing-a-mutiny-from-its-own-fans

The Weight is a Gift is like 10000000x better than you would think if you only know “Popular”

Marie Fred has been my favorite BY FAR of Wayne’s SOs. She’s funny, talks shit back to him, connected with Katy REALLY fast, seems interested in his interests, and provides that connective tissue to the Keeebecks. Rosie’s cool but boring, never seemed to have the same spark or interest in his stuff, and is being shown…

You will absolutely know more about this than me, but I thought I remembered reading that certain native blocs were pushing back against the First Nations tag. Don’t remember why, but I vaguely remember reading that

Oh that’s fucking cool as hell and also makes a ton of sense.

Also here to note that Tanis is basically a cultural sensation up north. Keeso and Tierney make a point of consulting her and the other native characters on whether the dialogue sounds right, their costuming, etc, with the end result that she and the other native characters feel a lot more real and lived-in, even to a…

I’ll actually stump for Nada Surf. They had a mini resurgence in the mid oughts based off some extremely solid albums

This guy gets it, thanks for reminding me the guy’s name. My friends who were parents back then (and AFAIK still are) adored Casper for making kid’s music they could listen to. The original Johnny Karate!

Wait, are we talking Shimmer (certified banger) or Hemorrhage In My Hands (no)? 

DED.

I dated someone who was a HUGE Third Eye Blind fan. Like, “collected bootleg recordings of concerts” Third Eye Blind fan. And apparently this is really really common! There are a lot of people who will tell you with a straight face that they follow Third Eye Blind around the country!

The lead singer of POTUSA (whose name I can’t be bothered to google) was holding it down as a very highly esteemed performer for kids in Seattle. I accidentally stumbled on an autograph signing he was doing at a doughnut shop at 8am and the line stretched down the block

How DARE you besmirch the good name of Silverchair by lumping them with the Gin Blossoms.

IMO, it’s like adapting Douglas Adams. A huge part of the humor comes from the perspective of the narrator making observations of the situation, which often dictates how the characters behave/react/etc. I’m not going to say it’s totally unfilmable, but it’s EXTREMELY DIFFICULT to get right

IIRC a lot of the movies at the bottom of this list are movies that even the AV Club didn’t think were THAT great; lots of “good, but missing THIS” reviews down there

When you say people, you should probably specify “their board and investors.” Looking at the chart of their stock price, dips coincide pretty cleanly with delay announcements, and there’s no way they’ll tolerate that for a prolonged period of time.

Please note they said nothing about the physical copy in that letter. Best Buy has (rightfully) told me to kick rocks, and frankly I’m on their side. They shouldn’t have to pay for the sins of the developer

Oh god, I meant to compliment you on the awesome case and got swept up in the RUSH OF COMMENTING. Hell yeah, that’s good shit; the SNES is an unheralded acme of design

Actually still have my SNES and pop it on for an occasional Chrono Trigger or FF6 jag!

This is the correct answer
