Question: When do we start to truly globalize media instead of the rights bastardization of today?

So you don’t care what people think about your cargo shorts... but you care about the messenger bag?

Yeah I was thinking a marvel ARG could work pretty well, and would be a constant promotional tie in for new seasons. Pokemon Go meets City of Heroes.

Yeah I can imagine disney had a meeting and said “Which property are we making an ARG with?”

I’m sure warner brothers, sony, microsoft and all sorts of other companies have had similar conversations.

Yeah I think thats a bit ridiculous. Although I was disappointed when I went to a panel and they showed a large section of a movie that had been released on VOD a month beforehand, and pretended it was new because they hadn’t shown it on TV yet. We’re fans not morons...

I think its sort of a chicken or the egg type of thing, where in order to actually win the olympics, you have to agree to such stupid shit and new infrastructure that it becomes a boondoggle.

Spoken like someone who never rides a bus/train/subway/etc.

Or you know, was a kid who remembers that they dont just teleport from home to soccer practice.

How so? I mean the issue is essentially the ineptitude of the brazilians, why would you assume that chicago would have the same problems?

They could pull a Flash and have her casted as one of the older characters.

Depending on the success of this and shadowhunters, it could just shift to TV.

The game freezes half the time when you catch a pokeball, and people think the servers are good enough to effectively ping you when you’re facing the right direction...

If anything macdonalds locations would help rural areas...

Its weird because I feel like most of them ARE handicap accessible? Like most of the ones I’ve been to are in parks with paved sidewalks or just regular streets.

I bet you tell your kids that megablocks are just as good as Legos, and that special K is better than coco puffs.

Or at least encourage people to not stick in one spot at night.

Placing lures is also entirely fucking counterintuitive, and you basically have to guess to push on it again to get it on.

Same with a load of conventions and such. I went to NY comic-con and saw a panel where they showed a clip from a movie that had been out (on VOD) for 3 months. Like they somehow expected fans to wait until it was on TV...

I guess I would consider D.Va’s leaving the mech to be a passive ability too

Well its not like they ignored ingress. It was their only game, they put a ton of effort into it, creating huge worldwide events, lore, advertising, etc, things they DIDN’T do with pokemon. Its not like they said “this game isn’t pokemon, lets just mail it in!”

What I think though, is that they don’t really understand…

Trust me, they will
