I'm a fan of intelligent humour. Or even, humour.

A moronic sense of humour, from what I can tell from the other comments.
Good, at least there's something funny coming from this article then :)
There's an importance nuance here maybe I didn't make clear. It's the "I DON'T" which makes it a clunker for me. That's not humour. That's just "Yeah your mom's dead but I don't care." Hilarious? No, that's not a joke, that's just a real life situation I wouldn't laugh at.
Well I got it in panel three, so maybe that explains our difference of opinion.
Incorrect - stating "I don't" is explaining the punchline a second time. We already know the father doesn't care about his dead wife (ugh) - we can tell from the fact he references the Saturn when the son explains his sense of loss (but for his mother).
Do you watch Game of Thrones?
It's insensitive because the father actively says he doesn't miss the mom. If he'd said something like "Oh yeah, her too," then it still wouldn't have been funny, but it would have made more sense.
Oh, you speak for everybody? Run along, I'm done with you now.
The apostrophe means ownership. That's.. what it means. It doesn't imply a take on it - it.. implies ownership. Sorry, I just don't know how to make it any clearer. McGee doesn't own Alice, he didn't invent Alice, and that's what the apostrophe suggests - giving him far more credit than he is ever due.
And I'm sure that all five are of them are happy with that.
I should've been more specific. Listed as the title. No-one refers commonly to Alice In Wonderland as Disney's Alice In Wonderland. It implies original authorship. Disney doesn't do that. McGee does, and gains unworthy kudos by assocation.
EDGE magazine printed my letter about this a few months ago - it's something that needs to be left behind for next gen. The majority of what's left on walls in games, people just wouldn't take the time to write. And it often doesn't make sense or add much anyway. The industry's still growing up, and I think…
Does Alice in Wonderland ever get referred to as Disney's Alice in Wonderland in the title? That's a no, so supports exactly my point. Disney is not doing the same thing, but given how much they've defined Alice in the public consciousness I think they've got more reason to and still don't do it.
Who mentioned Jesus? I was talking about someone else.
"American McGee's" Grimm.. "American McGee's" Alice..
To my eyes, these images are utterly incredible and anyone who posts snark about the tiniest details, especially without admitting how good they actually are, just sounds like a trolling hipster. Again, incredible images.
"..it's even got a decent name."
I do, I do indeed. My PC was never powerful enough to run this properly enough at the time. I wonder how it'd play now?
Commonly? Well, it's said, at least. I think that's about as far as you can claim, and even then you can't vouch for how many of those people meant and how many didn't. You can find evidence of anything being said on Twitter, I doubt that'd make it qualified as commonly said in the way you mean it.
