Van Helsing gets my vote as the worst studio film every made.  Not because there aren’t objectively worse movies ever made, but because on paper it should have been so easy to make that film at least watchable... but at every turn they make creative decisions that are just terrible.

How very dare you people. You left out the best one.

I know there’s a lot of snark about how TikTok is awful (it can be, yes) but this is really fucking dangerous. TikTok has also been used to spread information that other platforms bury. Example: I haven’t looked in a few weeks but if you searched France on Instagram, it just showed pictures of the Eiffel Tower and…

He was already slowing down before the show premiered. I think the big thing is that he’s rich enough now his publisher can’t force him to ship out whatever he’s written (hence A Feast for Crows being split from A Dance With Dragons and the latter missing its climactic battles).

So we are just gonna throw 3-4 articles a day about this game for the most random shit for the next 8 months huh?

I agree with the premise, he’s never going to finish and the show ending is his ending but the logic is faulty.

Yea exactly, how exactly did they think this was going to go? 

I will forever cherish Wes Craven Presents Dracula 2000 because of Entertainment Weekly’s awesome dis of Gerard Butler:

Seems like a pretty straight forward case of ‘fucked around , found out’. 

If you’re modding the game, you’re playing a copy of it on an emulator. That’s Nintendo’s issue. They see him promoting mods and to them that’s the same as promoting piracy.

Ugh, how exhausting. I’m old enough to have been excited for the Y2K New Years party . January 1, 2000 is when everyone celebrated the start of the 21st century. Newman booked his sad party one year later, on January 1, 2001, which was just like any other New Years Day.

To be fair to CNN, the outlet wasn’t the only one to snap up the bait: The Guardian, New York Post, and U.K. newspaper The Telegraph were among the other publications...

part of me would find it hilarious if this Link is basically the protagonist from Memento and he keeps forgetting stuff.

The ethically fine solution here is to go play and watch something else made by creators who you actually support.  If you pirate Harry Potter media, you’re still giving JKR free advertisement and letting her live in your head.

Well, the novelization of the film Bram Stoker’s Dracula included the Vlad the Impaler connection.

Not only that but Lovecraft died dirt poor, and Rowling has more money than god and could set up mechanisms to have said money influence real world politics from now until forever. 

I guess my current avclub pet peeve is the use of ‘we’ when there’s only one writer in the byline.  Whose this ‘we’ you’re talking about?

Claes Bang’s Star Wars name is Claes Bang.
