I was having a really hard time noticing anything different.

The minimal, if any, improvement is just proving how goddamn talented the original stop-motion animators were. The originals are fine.

“That’d be troubling if the game but unmemorable Jim Carrey’s guest stint as then-candidate Biden were better than the sloppy, wig-topped thing Alec Baldwin trotted out whenever he felt like working over the last five years of Saturdays.”

Much like with other beloved italian subgenres like spaghetti westerns and Poliziotteschi, there’s a lot of crap you have to wade through to get to the good stuff.

Every time I see kids skateboarding in a parking lot, (1) I think of this Onion article, and (2) the kids prove the article true: https://local.theonion.com/nations-amateur-skateboarders-havent-landed-trick-in-12-1819574936

The Skateboarder stands again, his body aches with the pain of a thousand falls. His body says “stop” but he says “NO”! He begins to roll on his wheeled board. She is a harsh mistress who brokers no compromise. She does not allow mistakes and she punishes them with pain.  But she is but one of the many bitches that…

Reid, maybe you need some space...to pull the knife out of the back of the most celebrated Canadian alt-rock band of the mid-90s, you selfish, jaded ass.

A test that determines your tolerance for bouncy pop punk, Barenaked Ladies lyrics, and the intersection of these two polarizing sounds.

It’s not though. I went through my adult life about 30 pounds overweight. I hated clothes shopping, snored like hell, and was always uncomfortable sitting down, trying to not let my midsection show.

Probably other rich kid weirdos like he is.

Yeah, pretty much everything he revealed was common sense. Developers crunching on a highly-anticipated AAA game? Check.

He’s done stories like this for Rockstar (RDR2) and Naughty Dog, too? Him exposing this stuff can only help. And how did you come to realize all those things were “common sense”? Probably from developers or reporters like Schreier speaking out.

I hate that I’ll actually probably buy this if they make it by the end of this year.
