We’re talking about a franchise that didn’t even have the characters you collect animate on screen until like 2004

Guys if we play this juuuuuust right, no one will notice the robot cat is just Dug from ‘Up’ - Pixar

Where have you been hanging out?

Unfortunately it might lose in all three.  Drive My Car is certainly a lock for International, Animated will most likely go to Encanto, and the Doc category is very strong this year.

I think it’s second to the part where they’re playing Stiff Little Fingers and someone asks if this is new Green Day (side note, this movie got me into Stiff Little Fingers)

I started playing Arceus yesterday and whoooo boy did I forgot the slog that is the first couple hours of a JRPG. “Okay player now head out to start your journey! To head out, approach the door to leave the room. You can open the door by gripping the handle and twisting it. Gently PULL the door towards you to activate…

“What have I told you about comparing everything to Nazi Germany when you don’t get your way?!” Was a great line that was barely a joke that I laughed very much at.

I found this quote from the Bungie CEO that really assured me

They really should have just asked Neil Blomkamp to do Elysium again with the IP he wanted for it from the get go.  This show looks far to clean and sterile. 

At the risk of sounding like a virtue signaling asshole, I cancelled my Spotify membership this weekend after being a subscriber for 10 years.  Just not able to stick my head in the sand after seeing the price of a media company actively promoting and steering users to misinformation for the sake of greater…

Tom Brady lost in the playoffs to Jake Plummer

Haha they didn’t even shit on the band they jammed 3 song titles into a few opening sentences. Don’t clutch your checkerboard pearls so hard.

He’s getting that bag for probably 5 days of VO work.  I think an easy check is exactly what he deserves.

Remember direct to VHS Disney sequels?  They’re back!  In streaming form!

This will go over like a lead balloon but in a universe where a particular someone wasn’t a complete dirtbag he’d make a great host:

Spoiler: It’ll be more than six months.

I initially really enjoyed Screen Violence on release, but soured on it a bit after repeat listens. I think the bad habits from Love Is Dead (weak lyrics, very lame and predictable ‘beat drops’) pop up in big ways on several tracks, mainly He Said, She Said (which not surprisingly the most listened to song from the…

Turnstile’s GLOW ON has been on pretty much every publications best of lists and I am having trouble understanding how it separates itself from similar bands in it’s genre. I won’t pretend to be an superfan of hardcore music, but listenting to it a few times on my morning walks after hearing all the praise has left me…

They flipped a switch at Evil HQ and in like 5 minutes people were throwing themselves out of windows and lighting cars on fire.  It happened at the exact same cadence and speed of a Rick and Morty joke.

To be fair it is a limited category in the sense that studios/animators have to submit stuff to the animation guild to be considered (and pay $150 for the year membership). So the best animated game in history wouldn’t get nominated unless someone submitted it for the category. The film and tv studios submit…
