In this case I don’t think “create” and “adaptation” are mutually exclusive.

That little to do on a friday that you need to pop into every comment to register your dislike of T&E style anticomedy, huh?

Watching things done 1:1 through an ironic lens has an energy that just watching a bad thing unfold doesn’t. Otherwise people would stuff theaters full of the worst comedies just to laugh AT…

This is genuinely one of the most rancid, thoughtless articles in the history of the AV Club. It is antithetical to what this website used to be. G/O Media should do us a favor and shut the whole fucking thing down.

The film is designed to be two people’s contrasting, first-person views, Oppenheimer’s and Strauss’. We don’t see anything outside either point of view. If the film had a broader scope and then chose not to show the bombing and its effects, he would have a legitimate point.

That sounds an awful like the kind of argument people make when they say people working at McDonald’s don’t deserve to be paid enough to live off of because it’s “not a real job”.

You know normally I wouldn’t respond to something like this, I mean this is such bad-faith arguing that what you respond? However, in this case, I could not help myself as I couldn’t stop laughing at this. Like this is legitimately one of the most hilarious things responses I’ve gotten in ages and there have been some…

Except... they don’t, given how often people misuse them and other people try to insist the two are wholly different. The above is a perfect example, it’s just something pedants latch onto because they think it makes them look smart and they just take other pedants’ word for it.

Amazing how many AV Club commenters can’t see homophobia when it’s blatantly staring them in the face

Damn dude, he wasn’t at any point trying to invalidate any of your opinions, he just asked a simple, good-faith question. You made a comment about Pattinson being a watered-down emo goth, and he wanted to understand where that comment came from; the source of that comment was unclear, and like Jesse, the only…

What on earth?!

He’s not saying he doesn’t care. He’s saying he gets why the general public has had dwindling interest in the awards ceremony.

I feel like if you’re coming from a place of wanting to use a fork to eat wings, your opinion is already suspect.

It won’t be the same without Peter Sallis doing Wallace. It will be like Bugs Bunny when Mel Blanc died, or Kermit after Jim Henson died. The voice will always be a bit off. 

Because Laserface is the pathetic hypocrite that they are and dismissed my reply to them:

I am not entitled to anything lol you are thinking about this too much. Getting a crowd to turn off their phones so you can “be really real” in hushed tones and then saying creepy shit about women he dated in college. It was weird as hell. This was at a UW book signing/talk event. One more post and I’m gonna suspect…

When the NY Post is debunking stuff you publish, maybe it’s time to raise your standards.

If any part of you is “grinning,” I think you’re the complete asshole in this situation.

“With all that’s going on in the world…” Well Mr Burry, it would be pretty weird if the SEC was subpoenaing people over Afghanistan, COVID, immigration, global warming, or ethnic cleansing in Myanmar, so maybe this is one of the things the SEC should be doing. 

You’re conflating these instances. In one its an internal discussion about events that may be modern politics, job dynamics, compensation, etc. — This is for management and the employees to discuss what’s going on and come to something that may benefit them and the company.

When has Kotaku ever been the “Valorant got a new map” website? I would always prefer an article on something like this to a press release
