She was paid $7 million for a part that didn’t even make it into the Thor final cut? Thats nuts

Yeah, it’s crazy in retrospect to think about how close together all those were and how different they look, even from each other. The time gap between MI1 and Curse is the same gap between Fallout 4 and now. And that was a HUGE hiatus, those games basically bookend the entire history of Lucasarts doing point and…

I’m constantly reminded of how art is subjective, because I can’t for the life of me understand how anyone could not like The Curse of Monkey Island’s visual style. It’s so wonderfully painted and drawn and beautiful, but hey, maybe that’s just me!

How could you make list and not mention Beavis and Butt-Head's commentary on Pantera and how that Pantera dude's dad must have kicked his ass when he was a kid?

At least they didn’t release it in the form of a fucking slideshow. Good lord, what drugs are the mgmt on?

Shooting in two languages, meaning you do takes with the actors speaking in one language, then do takes with them speaking in a different language is exceedingly rare. It was actually more common in the 30s and 40s on some studio films where they’d have the actors say the lines phonetically in Spanish even though they…

So I replayed Sands of Time recently, and there actually AREN’T a lot of games like it. Its traversal mechanics are pretty unique, it’s pretty much a puzzle-platformer - more modern games with parkour usually just have you point at the next obvious handhold and press a “climb” button.

I have played a bunch of platformers, and I really don’t think Sands of Time was as copied as you say. Running along the walls and such was new, and I haven’t seen that in many places, and the rewinding of time was copied by a couple of games but not that many. I think it would still feel unique even if it were made…

This is the coolest thing I have ever seen.

I don’t want to overstate this but, this is amazing news! I introduced my teenage son to B&B a year ago and although still funny, it’s nothing like the riffing on the videos. I set my expectations in life very low so that I’m not constantly disappointed but this really, truly makes me happy!

it’s already spoiled in the title. then the article itself is written like clickbait

LOL way to spoil the best cameo. Jesus this site is so fucking bad at not spoiling shit.

I’m starting to wonder if Square Enix is cooking their books in some way with all of this. It seems odd that Final Fantasy VII Remake part 1 can sit in development hell for actual decades and get chalked up as this massive success at only 5 million units sold while a new IP that’s only been in active development for…

Another thing to keep in mind is that you AREN’T automatically making just anyone uncomfortable by tracing spontaneous circles on inner thighs. But when someone has literally told you that you are, it becomes your prerogative to stop, adjust, and redo based on listening and absorbing.

Should’ve taken the advice of your lawyers, you silly old man. Yeah, you did it differently in the 70s and got all improvisational tracing circles on inner thighs during love scenes. Maybe it’s not the 70s any more and you were making someone super uncomfortable?

Maybe if you didn’t whine and reject the advice of the…

I know it’s insane of me to think that someone paid to write about movies might have any idea of what method acting actually is; regardless, it is very much not what Jared Leto does. None of the Stanslavskian methods--not Strasberg, not Meisner, not Alder--consider Leto's "staying in character" shtick a valid or…

The ironic thing about the press junket for this movie is that the real Nic Cage is now way more compelling to me than the fictionalized meme-spouting version of him.

I believe next would be Day Man

The Bechdel Test was always more useful in the aggregate than as a critique of individual works, which is the opposite of how it’s usually deployed. It’s possible to make a good movie about just men, or just women, so often it’s easy enough to defend any given film. It’s only really damning when you realize that most…

It’s a beautiful small and funny film that’s also a very by the numbers underdog film. An odd pick for Best Picture, but a big day for Apple. (Suck it Netflix)
