I know I am in the vast minority but I have disliked Spider-Man 2 since I walked out of the theater in 2004. I thought Doc Ock’s “I’m going to kill everyone to save my loved one” arc is as thin as a Saturday morning cartoon and no better than Sandman’s maligned arc in Spider-Man 3. I feel like people THINK it’s better

Next you’re going to tell me everyone in the courtroom didn’t get up and slow clap during the sentencing speech.

If you find yourself in Chicago I recommend going to the Museum of Science and Industry for their mirror maze:

Oh sorry I thought I heard you guys and thought you were talking about me. Carry on, I’ll show myself out.” - David Brevik

All they had to do was put Jack on the preps and it would have been Romeo & Juliet.  Then they heal their squads differences by going across the finish line together!  Come one writers attend a screenwriting seminar to at least get to middling quality.

I can’t wait to see the lipstick on this pig.

Neither are you

You are offering no way to improve society. You are posting ‘I’m 15 and I think this is deep’ quotes like you’ve read half a Noam Chomsky book.

Labor did make that money. The labor was me assessing and evaluating a situation that a company has put itself in and using my intelligence in economics to anticipate they would fail. My philosophizing (YEAH I WENT THERE) created something of value using prerequisite rules in a system that anyone can freely enter.

When a big studio leans heavily into the action genre for their big animated tentpoles it usually goes poorly.

Not surprising. Throughout S10 his posture is so stiff and slow you can feel how hard it must be for him to move. Get well soon Lewis!

I think Blockbuster video is really not embracing how this new Netflix companies distribution is much more consumer friendly. I think they’re going to lose a good chunk of their market share. I think I’m going to buy a short position.

Serious Question: How do compilations like the NOW series even make money anymore? I see they are on Spotify but since it’s a compilation if I streamed from their album are they getting a piece of that streams revenue away from the artist? I can’t imagine the actual compilation CD business is booming these days either.

Are we sure based on Aronofsky’s recent biblical streak this isn’t going to be a ‘Jonah and the Whale’ adaptation?

When I taught a video game animation class I would reference Mario 64 because it looks great with very minimal polys/joints, and Jak & Daxters jump animation which IMO is one of the best ever. The amount of squash and stretch happening in J&D was simply not happening in any videogames up to that point. And it wasn’t a

Well yeah but I didn’t want to type all that.

In a game as big as Cyberpunk, developers will submit games for certification with waivers attached. Basically a long list of bugs they know exist, how they are fixing them, and when that fix will be done (aka the day one patch). The discs are pressed with the bugs, the game downloads the patch when the disc is

Fuck that apologist bullshit. I’ve played for 2.5 hours on my Xbox One X and had two hard crashes and a freeze that forced me to unplug the console. This game is arriving busted as shit and they knew it so they only sent review codes of the PC version so no one would see/read about how fucked up the console versions

Stand back everyone:
