I also work in the creative arts and this is true. My theory is that art requires empathy and an open-mindedness to new thoughts and ideas. These are all things that your typical conservative does not have.

It’s wild how across the board MAGA folks can not understand how to produce anything aesthetically pleasing. Any time they try and create literally anything it looks like clip-art, Windows 95 slide show, horse shit.

Was just saying this to someone. Kang works well in comic books because it’s a medium much more open to wild swings of scope and concept. Movies/TV need clearer goals and have less time to build to them than decades worth of comics.

Right, but Thanos had a clear goal: “Gather the stones of great power.” We knew he wasn’t “good” so his villainous intent was clear even if we didn’t know what his endgame ( wink ) was.

Yeah Kang’s “want” never made any sense even though 90% of his dialogue in Loki and Ant-Man 3 was exposition about time travel and timelines and multiverses.

I’m both grumpy that it’s not on Xbox but also relieved because I’m still trying to finish BG3.

It IS low budget, especially for a period piece. Typically anything below 10-12 million is “low” budget.

So more comic accurate than ever.

It’s wild because IMO Captain Cold fits way better. I can’t recall if he was ever in the Suicide Squad, but he’s way more of a team player(ish) than Freeze. Freeze rarely even teams up with other Bat villains.

You have embiggened your vocabulary today.

I could see Turtles being decent competition, but they are truly on different wavelengths. 

100%, it’s grifters all the way down. The alt-right are all incredibly easy marks especially if you say the right (pun intended) words. They’re willing to adopt (and give money to) anyone as long as that person is “anti-woke” or “strong” or whatever the hell it is they want to see to verify their warped world view.…

Holy shit that Dave bit isn’t even a joke. It’s a bad story at best (“I met Jim Carey and he was in character and it confused me”).

I’m still in awe at the Divinity 2 port. 

Ah, this would explain having to agree to the EULA/content settings etc all over again when I went to play this afternoon.

Really hoping the Baldur’s Gate release is something like “and you can play it on Game Pass right now!”

He’s great in Dune, and the movie is very good. Who would you have cast as Paul? He’s kind of a whiny punk ala Luke Skywalker and I think Chalamet fits the bill.

They really know how to cut a trailer. I’d go see this movie.

They sucked out Snake’s butt fat and used it for Peter’s pecs. Tale as old as time (aka as old as the Ren and Stimpy episode where they do this)

I wouldn’t be shocked if it was also straight to Game Pass.
