Hmm, I did a ctrl-f and searched for “funny,” “comedy,” “comedic,” “laugh,” and “humor” and got 0 hits. This is supposed to be a Ghostbusters movie, right?

The prequel trilogy is as despised as it always was by the people that despised it. The difference is that the opinions of 8 year olds who loved the movie at the time didn’t count and now they’re in their 30s and are counted as part of the conversation. I would guess the number of adults who saw it in theaters and…

If they’re busy being angry at the world, they don’t have to look at themselves as a possible reason about why their lives suck. Channeling vitriol at their villain of the week makes it feel like they’re being proactive while they sit in their cheeto dust covered gamer chairs. Getting up and going outside is hard,…

Can I get to an ending without playing with anyone online? If not, then it’s not a game I want to play. Their continued focus on “traversal”, i.e. getting from one place to another, is mind-boggling to me. Yeah, if it’s a pain to get around that can ruin a game, but making it a key selling point? What is that? It…

Yeah, I don’t get it. If they hadn’t made every joke how he’s so panty-soakingly hot I’d have never guessed he was considered particularly handsome. I mean, he’s not ugly; he’s ok looking.

Really? Everyone has their own tastes and maybe it’s my age, but I just don’t think he’s that good looking. He’s like... I dunno, a 6 or 7, I guess? He’s just... meh. Makes me think of Michael Phelps, maybe. Or a funhouse-mirror Christian Bale from certain angles. I just don’t get it.

I wanna be optimistic about Avowed but it looks like an updated Hexen. Running around looking at my character’s hands just feels so 90s to me, and not in a good way. I liked the Pillars of Eternity games, but this just doesn’t look like my cup of tea.

It’s CBS, so why not Sheldon: The Kelvin Timeline?

Buy me Bulletstorm or go to hell!

Talos Principle II, hands down. Such an outstanding sequel to a game I loved.

$350 was low enough to get me to actually take the plunge last week. And to buy something from Walmart. I mainly PC game so the XSX isn’t really going to give me anything new, but for the price, and since I’ve had Gamepass Ultimate since I was still using my XBOne and never downgraded to PC only for some reason, I…

I’ve been on the edge of buying one at $450 and $350 would have been really tempting but goddammit, I have a pretty nice gaming laptop and from all my research I can’t find a single reason to actually take the plunge. I got a PS5 for the exclusives but with Game Pass on my PC, there’s just no reason to buy a Series X,…

Taking diarrhea frosting off of a shit cake is great, but you’re still left with a shit cake.

I’ve put Spider-Man 2 on hold to play through Talos Principle 2. I loved the first one and was psyched to play the sequel. It expanded on the original in a similar way that Portal 2 did to Portal. In a pretty good year for games as a whole, this is up there with BG3 for me.

No way this would make it to a top 25... or 500 probably, but Carpathian Forest’s cover of The Cure’s A Forest is a personal favorites.

Everything said in a single comment is directly related and not separate points.

Yes, I can, but it’s not always comfortable. What’s with the huge pushback against an intermission? If I’m not sleeping I don’t particularly like sitting in the dark for 3+ hours. If the goal is getting people into theaters, not offering an intermission for overlong movies is a factor in people opting to watch things…

I’m not younger. And I *CAN* hold it for 3 hours, but I work out and stay hydrated so it’s not always comfortable. And when the small drink at the theaters is bucket sized it doesn’t help. Just another reason people would rather watch a movie at home so they can pause and go pee.

My local AMC has an IMAX screen but it’s the only screen in the whole theater with old-fashioned movie seats. The idea of spending 3 hours in a movie theater in the middle of summer in a non-reclining chair... I just can’t do it. How big do directors think the average bladder is? We need to start bringing back…

Aww yeah! I can feel just like Sam Brenner or Ludlow Lamonsoff, the hugely known characters from the not at all a bomb Pixels!
