It's also hard for someone who wasn't there at the time to grasp the sexualization of Croft in the original games. Yes, it's easy to see her breasts are very large, but overall the eroticism of early 3d graphics has not aged well at all.

I mean, Congresspeople represent hundreds of thousands of people. Meeting with individual constituents isn't really a viable solution for constituent service. This makes it easier for constituents to let politicians know what they want, and what matters to them. And I doubt there is any politician going "well, I was…

Well, I assume that acknowledgement of Kristin Bell being a good sport got this into the D range, and then…

The title of the post (assuming it hasn't been edited) says the ending is "depressing." That in no way spoils the ending. Indeed I'm not even sure its accurate- the end of the film felt inspiring to me. These men and women gave their lives for something that mattered- and they won.

There's probably a good documentary to be made about the intersections between the culture of skateboarding and the culture of videogame creation in this particular moment.

It seems more accurate to say that Trump THINKS he's the Tony Stark of politicians.

It absolutely did belong. Two of the key tasks of Tartakovsky's the clone wars were 1) To demonstrate why characters in the prequel trilogy that everyone talked about as really cool actually were cool and 2) To convey that the Clone Wars are operating at the scale of a galactic conflict, rather than something that…

So I'll almost certainly play ME:A eventually- I like the Bioware formula, I adore the original trilogy, and I can deal with open world mediocrity.

NO PARENTS!

I'm with you.

His strength is being the guy who unabashedly loves, and thinks deeply about, The Price is Right.

I think this is a very bad look for the AVClub. Maybe the main thing that drew me to this site was the conscious effort it made to respect the broad range of TV, to try to understand what makes popular things popular and what they do well. We mock TVDW's insane Two Broke Girls experience, but at its core was an…

Technically speaking, NCIS is JAG but with cops.

OUTRAGEOUS!

I don't think anyone would object to just pretending the last season never happened.

The show has a very weird contempt for Sarah Chalke as an actress. It shies away from giving her big emotional moments, and just treats her as a pretty stunt face to joke about metatextually while real Becky is away..

I mean…the 1991 Beauty & The Beast is itself a great example of a remake/reboot of the Cocteau film that does something genuinely new and equally valid with the source material.

I only ever saw the original production, but I thought it was…really long and dull, and didn't have a single moment where I wasn't kind of wishing I was watching the better paced movie instead. It felt very lacking in ideas about how to take advantage of being a stage show as well, and ultimately couldn't justify the…

I can believe there is no way to faithfully translate the simplicity of the original designs in a way that doesn't look horrifying.

Well, then, I guess I'll need to get used to being a sentient downvote button.
