I think it’s that new program where college players can make money off their name and image.

In what contexts? Maybe anecdotal ones that you’ve been part of, but certainly not any actual musical ones.

That’s part of the reason I can’t shake the nagging feeling that Microsoft wants out of the console business. It seems like, if they had their druthers, they’d simply release their games on PC and cloud; that’s not tenable right now for several reasons, of course, but they’ve never been particularly deft at the…

Now that is a possibility. And to be clear, they are Navy personnel, I was just drawing the distinction between sailors and regular Feds because “in the Navy” implies the former.

Dammit, YouTube.

The goth chick was not in the Navy. NCIS is part of the Department of the Navy, but its agents and civilian employees are not military personnel. Same goes for Dr. Mallard.

I’m not sure there’s going to be a pro. It’s entirely possible (and maybe even likely) that the only mid-gen refresh is going to be a Slim with a modular optical drive.

“Combat” fam represent!

It’s a suit that will get you thrown out of most public places. You should go with a two-piece or even a three-piece to be safe.

I love his Steven Seagal story:

Part of the problem with the 2016 movie is that they decided to tell more or less the same story as the original, with several of the same story beats. Doing that with a beloved original is a recipe for disaster - another example of that is Star Trek Into Darkness, which was both worse and an even more baffling…

They love to co-opt symbols/language for their own purposes, whether it’s something they latch onto organically (the Gadsden Flag) or something they want to build a strawman/bogeyman out of (“woke”/”SJW”).

Did it end up on the screen? No, and that’s what’s relevant.

Upon seeing the headline, my mind immediately went to the latter even though I exclusively watched the former.

Oh, but it wasn’t. A key difference (maybe the key difference?) between the two films is that the improv in the original was tight and didn’t meander at all.

Based on the description of what was cut, I hope not. The last thing that film needed was more meandering, overlong improv scenes.

Dion clearly never visited the Newhouse School while he was at Syracuse.

I’ll be dust by the time there’s a new Fallout game.

I straight-up cannot understand the thought process behind remaking/re-imagining/rebooting something that was popular because it was pure bonkers, cheesy fun and turning it into an earnest, self-serious affair.
