I want a wonk for Prez. I think they’re the best at it.

1. He is racist.

Like many people similar to him anyone who challenges the status quo is a danger to his way of life. Anyone who points out that cops shooting unarmed black people is wrong threatens their view of authority. To them the dead and injured officers in Dallas are a tragedy (which is true!) but the numerous dead and injured…

Exactly - it's not a misery contest, so why are you ranting about the perceived tone of the coverage?

I don’t think it’s insulting at all, and it is more tragic. They barely got a chance to live their lives before it was taken from them.

Honestly, if adapting Akira at all, make it a - non-whitewashed - series. The movie is great, it was the first anime I ever saw, when I was like 14, but the Manga has SO much more in it and it’d be nice to see those characters and stories given room to breathe.

So, maybe don’t make a movie - make a new full length…

Get out of my head!

Please for the love of all things good please let the Akira movie stay in development hell. It’s bad enough that they’re going to whitewash GitS and eliminate any trace of Japanese culture from the story. I don’t care how good the concept art looks just let this movie stay buried.

Counter-counterpoint: Bryan Menegus hates Ok Go and is using AJJ’s parody video as a means to express his rage.

Some people can’t enjoy things for the simple purpose of just enjoying them. Bryan Menegus is one of these.

Totally agree. The Rube Goldberg machine one was flat out astounding.

I agree. I feel like this is a really weird thing for them to parody. OK Go kind of created that whole viral music video thing and they still do it really well?

So was the song in this video an actual song of theirs? Or did they also make a parody OK Go song?

I'm ashamed I clicked on this article. I'm just rewarding the assholes who make a buck tearing shit down.

Agreed. My kids and I watch “White Knuckles” several times a year still. Nothing to snark on there.

Nail on the head right there.

I find theirs more impressive than most other music videos that are out there. Just because their style is their shtick, doesn’t mean they suck.

I’m not a avid listener of OK Go, but I do enjoy watching the videos they produce.

I feel that AJJ is really missing the point by making a video that supposed to make fun of the process by not really trying at all. The “behind the scenes” portion of the video kind of disgusted me.

When AJJ can afford to rent several…

It’s super impressive. Why is this article calling OK Go assholes for making cool videos?

Since Jon, was born to two people who weren’t married, then he’s still a bastard. But a bastard of two houses, Stark and Targaryen. Meaning he has no real claim to either head of the house seat. He needs to be legitimized. The North may have decided this on the Stark side. Daenerys is the only one left that can do…
