I think Kidman just gets to be in all the best scenes - her therapy sessions with Calamity Jane. And not just for the great soliloquies, either - their interaction with each other, both as people whose profession is/was manipulating people via conversation and careful choice of words, are absolutely masterful.

Honestly, all the main cast is amazing in this show. Witherspoon/Kidman/Skarsgård/Dern have the most complex work to do, and they all do it beautifully, but I am also impressed by the child actors. None of them suck! How rare is that?

I started liking Eris Morn and Ikora more when they started being the leaden-serious counterpoint to Cayde-6's humour. Zavala was one of the only characters who had character even in Vanilla (yay Cedric Daniels!)

Yeah, that was the least-bad thus far. Not nearly good enough to make up for the ball maze, though.

The shrines are my favourite part of the game by far. Except for ones that require motion controls, because motion controls can just fuck off.

Still not the worst Daily Mail headline I can think of:

Bah, you beat me to it!

Why not just split it down the middle like the cool kids are doing these days? As far as body mods go, circumcision isn’t particularly avant-garde anymore.

I just platinumed the game a couple of days ago (almost exactly an hour after getting bored of it - which to me is a sign of close-to-correct game length), but I would have loved that “hold X multiple buy option”.

But the audience doesn’t even know they’re British until 2 years after they have already filmed the movie.

In my experience, problems like this tend to be more likely to do with the Creative team and/or publishers having a poor grasp of scope control, and not listening to individual teams saying that there is no way to be finished on time. I’ve seen it more often with Enviro Art and especially with Design than Animation,

the boy band craze that ruined the airwaves of my youth

We are going to recognize the dedication and passion you’ve shown for this world. Specifically, the class, race, gender, face, hair, and marking selections for all characters that have achieved Level 20 and completed the Black Garden story mission will carry forward.

it’s hard to imagine three black guys winning an award for such a mediocre song.

Moana was not only less good than Zootopia, it was also less good than Kubo And The Two Strings and pretty forgettable in general. It ticked all the right inclusivity boxes, which I applaud it for, but wasn’t otherwise a good film. Zootopia ticked most of those same boxes and also told us a story worth telling.

You’re thinking of chimpanzees. Bonobos (Pan paniscus) are a different species from common chimpanzees (P. troglodytes).

treat each other like humans.

There is a common segment seen on Fox News, where they have a panel discussion between the ultra-conservative host, two ultra-conservative guests who are nevertheless well-versed in their issue, and the dumbest liberal they can find, to act as an unwitting straw-man. Generally the liberal guest is shouted down anyway.

Do you like loot? Do you enjoy having so much loot that you don’t know what to do with it? Does the thought of drowning in a sea of loot, images of loved ones scrolling like a credits sequence as a laser gun digs deep into your esophagus, appeal to you?
