It's almost certainly bullshit, but a mascot punching a kid is the most Philadelphia sports thing in the world.

Yiff Yiff, Hurray?

It has growing pains, but nothing nearly as bad as that initial movie. There are a lot of “essential episodes” lists, though, that can get you through the first season.

How about the fact it’s the philosophical morality lesson humanity desperately needs these days, but made funny and relatable with one of the most talented casts and joke writers in the medium today and nearly every other episode, the show completely upends where we thought it would go? Or how much fun rewatching it…

Simple solution: take the show out back and shoot it.

Thanks! Off the top of my head, I’d go with the ‘90s, since both times I’ve done lists involving it were the hardest experience I’ve had just picking a handful of favorites, and the innovation itself would be the popularization of the CD-ROM. Yeah, technically they’d been around for a decade earlier, and even in Dec. 1…

I’m well into the second act of Deus Ex: Human Revolution. I appreciate how its escalation is done both narratively and mechanically: For the first time, a mission was interrupted and my dropship was shot down en route. A city hub was reused, but this time with security checkpoints manned by armed guards. It both…

I think the PS3 was the best region free console. Sometimes games would even automatically switch the game language to your systems default language if it was available. I played through the Ninja Gaiden games that way.

George turns up on set for everything. I have no doubt he has fun hanging around talking with people and giving advice and whatnot, but I also think some of it is promotional to give whatever is being produced some sense of authenticity. Did he enjoy giving a note to Ron Howard on the set of Solo about how Han would…

Salutations~!

BIG week for me with Monster Hunter World. I beat Xeno’jiiva! The ‘final boss’ of the game is a hell of a good fight, with a couple of minor problems but generally a good pace. You really feel yourself getting better at the fight as you figure out its moves, and I ALMOST timed out (and would probably think worse of…

Huh, I just saw Super Robot Wars on the Steam page a bit ago ... probably because I live in Japan. I was totally disinterested — I love giant robots, and giant robot anime, but I’m really wary of jank Japanese giant robot games that, in my uninformed opinion, are both over-focused on stat grind and empty fan-service…

Now, given how critical Lucas has (quietly) been about the technical elements of latter-day Star Wars projects, we can only assume that, rather than having a Werner Herzog-esque moment of beauty and connection, he’s just assessing the little guy for similarities to, and deficiencies from, his own Yoda puppets from…

This was an all around good episode, Jason’s “I’ve read some books, geez” was great

This would have made Marriage Story...different.

By sheer dumb luck Stanley found a comment in a blog post referencing what he now knew to be the video game that was his life. That thought was rapidly followed by how to collect points, what the points would be for, and whether or not there was a princess waiting for him at the end of all this.

It’s. Star. Wars.

For me personally, I don’t like the idea we spend six movies doing the rise and fall of Skywalker, only for that all be for naught and the Skywalker family is ultimately on the side of evil. It was definitely the trajectory TLJ had placed him on and would have been different though.

Honestly,  nothing above sounds that much better then what we got.  Plus who knows what it would have looked like on film.  

Actually sounds dumb as hell to me. And Leia skeptical of Ben being brought back into the light? Nope. No mother would think their son was irredeemable no matter what, unless they were a piece of shit, and Leia’s not a piece of shit.
