I'm a HUGE KOF fan, but none of the KOF games can touch SF3. There are two 2D fighters that stand above everything else, and those are SF3 3rd Strike, and Garou: Mark of the Wolves. Other games have been faster/sharper/higher resolution/etc, but nothing comes close to the combination of fluidity and gameplay that…

It might be too early to say this, after only a few listens, but Telefone looks like it'll be in the running for my Album of the Year. I can't remember being so enamored with an album right out of the gate as I am with this. Noname weaves beautiful tapestries with her words and I just want to listen over and over. I…

I need to get on that Jamila Woods tip. I've heard nothing but good things. Also plan on checking out Eryn Allen Kane, who I believe is also in this amazing group of Chicago talent coming up.

Love Noname, Nitty Scott, Lizzo, and Rapsody. All different flows and styles, all would be considered "on the come up".

No, same person. Gypsy is a racial slur so she dropped it. She mentions it in the first and last track of this album as an acknowledgment of her old name and growth as an artist to where she is today.

Yep. Everything about this article is awesome. I agree wholeheartedly. Despite being neither a weird little girl nor a space alien, I felt super connected to this film when it came out, and it has become one of my favorite animated movies.

Fun fact: she says something like "I put my thing down, flip it, and reverse it", and then the whateverthehell part after that is actually "I put my thing down, flip it, and reverse it" played backwards.

No cast support drives me NUTS. I got lucky in that they have a Wii U app, so I watch it there, but there's no reason not to copy/paste the ~5 lines of code to add cast support to the app.

Any idea if/when they'll add Season 2 to Prime? I read several news articles that referred to "Amazon Prime" getting the episodes a day after they air, but as of now they're only available to purchase, and not actually on Prime.

I'd be all for this. It sounds like a great plan.

Loved Critics Choice. I know Fallon is more well known for his Neil Young, but Carvey’s "every Neil Young song ever written" is really great.
I also dig the singers acting mad at the mic/guitar players acting like changing chords is magic bits.
I've seen the Comedy Central version a ton of times, but only managed to…

100% correct. Also some of the Next Gen films (as bad as they are) are very much NOT in tone or style with the show. They're big dumb action movies.

Just watch Ned Rifle again before watching this.

Okay wait, so this guy is Benedict Wong and he's in Dr. Strange the movie as Wong. BD Wong plays Dr. Strange (no relation) on Gotham. Then, Benedict Wong (who is not Dr. Strange) is the servant of Benedict Cumberbach (who IS Dr. Strange). Did they do this on purpose?

I always wanted to call my first album "Self Titled Debut Album". Never did get around to recording it, unfortunately.

I think Kevin Hart does it regularly. I don't know for sure but I'm pretty sure I heard The Rock say that, and I generally believe The Rock.

In a related thought, does anyone have AnnaKendrickLamarOdom yet?

Is 12 years a slave Steve McQueen the same as vampire diaries Steve McQueen?

I dug The Like back when Last.fm was still a functional streaming service and they'd recommend that I listen. Good stuff. I did feel like Z Berg was the star of the band though, and I have enjoyed the other bands she has fronted, so I don't think I was wrong. Phases and JJAMZ are both worth checking out.

See, I liked The Voyager well enough. It grew on me quite a bit after a fairly meh first impression. But, the biggest problem with the album is all of the adult contemporary Ryan Adams production. It's like he picked one "vibe" and just slapped it onto the 3/4 of the album that he produced.
