Nah, I don’t think so. In all sci-fi space exploration stories there is a sex-fueled lusty planet that humans visit for recreation. Ironically, WE are probably that planet! That’s a speculative fiction mainstay. We can’t even conceive alien societies without reflexively considering a bachanalia right at the top of the…

All big chain stores devolve into this. I’ve worked in sales from everything to cars, server, bartender, cashier throughout my life. The focus is always on the phantom sale. How much ‘weather-proofing’ can you sell on a Baked Potato? All the language is the same, and it’s really silly. Sure, all those little things…

Yeah...he basically played to his character and had already done everything when discovered. This was hardly a ‘play’. He farmed his mob and capped. I guess the real question is why did he die? That seems like a huge gaff.

Never got very far in Witcher 3. The prologue was killing me. The intro movie was interesting, but I didn’t really get how it connected to the story at hand, and got quickly tired of the very long cut-scene heavy setup in the castle. Like, I didn’t really get what my investment in any of this was or how it was related…

I haven’t seen rogue one yet, but I was optimistic because it was a standalone and wouldn’t suffer from character crush and reference. Apparently it suffers more than even the Force Awakens. That’s disappointing and kinda mind-boggling. They actually CGI’ed in more Star Wars lore/references?! Sigh...that’s something…

Also, a kangaroo can and will easily disembowel you. Just because they don’t while you observe them from a distance, doesn’t mean it isn’t dangerous to get close to them. They aren’t ‘boxing’, they are trying to get you in an MMA style head-hold and then go to town with their velociraptor hind legs.

Koala’s have nasty claws and like 99 percent of the population carries mutant strain of Chlamydia. I know this sounds hilarious, but it’s actually pretty serious and it’s transmittable to humans. On top of that, they eat each other’s excrement because they can’t manufacture their own gut bacteria.

Yeah the next time Kojima is absent from his own award ceremony won’t be because he is under some sort of stifle clause from his company, but because he intends to be streaming from Mars or Jupiter. He’s not sure which is the more realistic prospect.

I’m guessing the arc will be similar, is what they gathered from the context.

Yeah, at the end of the day, the industry is apparently garbage. The VO actors have the visibility and leverage to do something about it on their end. That doesn’t mean they think they are ‘better’ or more ‘worthy’ of pay than anyone else in the industry.

He says he will probably shut down his channel...and create a new channel. This isn’t news. This barely qualifies as clickbait for his diehard fans. Isn’t he also the ambassador for Youtube Red?

Yeah, the voice actors don’t have to qualify the standards they are striking for in comparison to the shitty standards of other fields in their industry with less visibility. I’m pretty sure that was Nolan’s point, it’s an industry-wide issue. While the voice-actors have the visibility, the audio/video engineers,…

Nah, there is alot of ego and frustration involved in online gaming. Also, due to the prevalence of hacks, alot of players come to the not altogether incorrect assumption that many other people are cheating, so that is now part of the playing field and they are the one moron not hacking.

Maybe that’s the case in some of the scenes, but I think the issue is, that animations were borrowed from previous work that animators/artists brought with them into a project. It’s fine for JP TV as far as their laws are concerned, BUT all this stuff is getting regionally released now, and there is probably more…

This is all PR. Justin Lin didn’t say anything. Someone else gave their opinion of Justin Lin’s stance and a story about how he big dogged Paramount. I don’t believe it. This is a trap for Anaxar. They (Paramount) will allow it to move forward and release and take them for everything once proof of income is more…

I hate the JJ films to be honest, and I would normally side with the small guy, but these guys at Axanar are jerks. They have created a platform to monetize the Star Trek IP. This is illegal. No fan film has ever done this, and it’s gross. Paramount HAS to step in and put a stop to it.

Well, let’s be clear, someone else said that Justin Lin put the nails to Paramount. That’s pretty vague and sounds pretty fake. Nobody is excited to see Lin at the helm of Star Trek. This is PR. Paramount can straight shutdown Anaxar. They haven’t done that. The Anaxar guys keep pretending they are fighting an uphill…

Yeah, this is so ridiculous though. Fan films are not a ‘loop-hole’ the copyright holder simply allows it. There is no loop-hole. It is up to the copyright holder’s discretion to bring suit. Everybody understands this...except for these jerks at Anaxar. What is going to happen is that fan productions will go away, an…

Also, to piggyback on your copyright assessment. It is designed to both protect creators AND intellectual property. It’s not perfect, and needs an overhaul, but without it, your intellectual property, the fruits of your creative endeavors can just be taken by someone else and profited from.

This. It would be a nebulous proposition if it was simply a ‘fan’ production, but the copyright holders have been really lenient about this in the past. They generally embrace it. Axanar is a full-fledged production, and they WILL profit it off it. It’s absolutely infringement. I understand alot of people don’t get…
