YASSSSS.

I’m seriously excited about this.

Give us something, folks. The Observation Deck always has good posts and coverage, maybe just give us a nod every now and then?

Since io9 stopped daily linking to the Observation Deck I think ... I think the staff here isn’t supposed to mention it. Which I would assume is a Gizmodo Media Group-wide decision about “do not promote non-staff work”, but then Kotaku still says hello to Talk Amongst Yourselves every day so...

Me too. Held out to 5 days before the final. That’s just mean.

OR...Or...or.... since your religion doesn’t match hers... you know, because, the bible is SO pro “jesus saves” trucker caps, that you would understand what it’s like to be humiliated and disgraced to your friends, family and God, in a population that kills people that are different, you totally get it. Or... you

Considering how “based on facts” movies have damn little to do with actual history, so what? If dumbasses want to see this whitewashed flick and it’s a moneymaker, then the market has spoken. If moviegoers shun this movie so it craters worse than Johansson’s Ghost in the Shell, maybe, just maybe Hollywood suits will

Omega Underground reports Anna Paquin’s Rogue will be recast for the film, with a younger actress coming in to play a version of the character that presumably syncs better with the latest film’s timeline than Paquin’s version of the character would.

I get the history. But here we have a word, oddly spelled, with a movie plate around it. If you don’t know what it is, you complain. Then the owner points out the intent and the effort to make it obvious, and you go, Oh, got it. The owner says “yeah sorry, not my intent” and others say “understood, I get it now”.

This is a classic case of “don’t know what the fuck you’re talking aboutness.” Instead of considering that nerd culture isn’t important and that changing a license plate is nothing, they choose to believe they are being persecuted.

I’m offended that there are people who don’t know who the Borg are.

If the Canadian government thinks ‘assimilate’ is offensive, then it’s offensive

No it isn’t. Historical narratives of this kind are compelling and help us understand why certain policies, inequities and hard feelings persist in the present day. They do not, should not be the basis for infractions or restrictions or any sort of official micromanagement of one’s expression. The history of how First

This is a classic case of “Offensisenitivity”. Instead of say being reasonable, and ASKING the guy what his plate meant, perhaps even learning something about nerd culture, they chose to be jerks and take offense.

This is one of those situations where neither side is wrong in their arguments.

You say there’s no wrong side in this, personally i disagree.

I think this is a little much. If this license plate is offensive, then Star Trek is offensive. If it was the license plate by itself then it could be misread, but this in no way should be taken by anybody as an offensive license plate with the license plate frame being fairly obvious.

I’m getting so tired of bashing The Matrix sequels in every article that’s Matrix-related.
