Paper Mario: The Thousand Year Door. Super Mario Galaxy. Spongebob Squarepants: Battle for Bikini Bottom. Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess. Legend of Zelda: The Minish Cap. Sonic Adventure. Pretty much any Kirby game. Any game in the Phoenix Wright series.

The “them” was meant to reference SNL. Apologies for the lack of clarity on my end.

I’d also point out that the Clone Wars knows its limitations and established a style to work within it. They purposefully gave the character designs a look akin to puppets, which really helped (at least from my perspective) to make the janky and stilted animation feel less jarring. It felt like watching an old puppet…

Can you blame them for being nihilistic when they have lived through...this?

Yeah, party affiliation tends to be a lagging indicator of voting patterns, actually. Up until recently, there were actually a huge number of reliably Republican voters that were registered as Democrats (the Reagan Democrats) that didn’t change official registration until 2018-2020 (and some might still be registered…

If she were just a candidate, I might agree with you, but at this point, we’re at the point where she is a mainstream Republican. We need to drive home to the average voter that this is what the Republican party either believes or tolerates, because this cannot get to the point where we treat these positions as…

Fury could have easily been lying for rhetorical effect there.

I said most, not all. France has a runoff system which is definitely another way to have more parties, as your candidate could still eventually win without a majority the first time around if they are broadly acceptable enough. Italy partially uses a proportional representation system for their legislator, which also…

The problem is that the US system as it is currently set up makes viable third parties for more than a single election cycle not a realistic option. Most multi-party (meaning more than two) democracies have a parliamentary system where the head of the executive branch is elected by the legislator, meaning that if no…

The Promised Neverland actually could be ideal for a Hollywood live-action film adaptation. Granted, I’ve only seen the first episode, but there isn’t much in the way of visuals that I’ve seen that would be hard to pull off or look bad in live action, and it has a straightforward premise (children escape from…

Considering that they are named after one of the oldest symbols of wealth redistribution that I can think of, that’s an odd move on their part.

Never trust a man with two first names.

The Animals, The Bare Naked Ladies (should get some interesting results on that one), The Turtles, fun., The Champs, The Avalanches, The Hives, The B-52s, SR-71, A-Ha, The Strokes, The Kinks, Queen, Franz Ferdinand, Sparks

Apparently, Chvrches spelled their name like that so it would be easier to find them in search engines.

It’s not a conventionally pretty voice, but it doesn’t sound bad, and it’s distinctive. I definitely think that it’s an asset overall.

Yeah, I heard that you wouldn’t miss much if you skipped it.

Rick Riordan (the author of the Percy Jackson and the Olympians book series, which had a truly awful film adaptation) posted some lightly censored (mainly to remove the names of some of the people involved) emails that he had sent to the producers of the film adaptations of his books during the film’s production on…

I grew up in the Gamecube/Xbox/PS2 era, and I love chiptune music. Granted, my first game system was a GBA, so I did get exposed to some of it that way. I’m not quite sure why I love it. There is something about the minimalism and catchy simplicity of it that is charming to me. It has a character and personality to it…

Why is this so surprising? I thought that it was pretty well known by this point that the Venn diagram for right wing extremists and pick up artists was pretty close to just being a circle.

Boy that was a letdown. I enjoyed the “Jurassic Bark” reference (well, enjoyed my not be the right word. Bawling my eyes might be more accurate), and the one joke about Homer and Benders’ character designs being similar, but the rest of it was just so...just there. Not terrible or good, just existing.
