I’m still slightly more fond of Star Wars than ESB, but I would love to erase all my knowledge of the franchise just to see this movie with fresh eyes again.

it’s weird to me that 95 percent of the time, you’re a thoughtful and intelligent part of this commentariat and then, every so often, you do this Tim Allen bit where having to learn one new concept is just too much for any reasonable person to ask

i learned about a subgenre of dark ambient music called dungeon synth earlier this week, and then an apparent subgenre of that called dino synth, so i’m guessing that so long as one person can detect differences between two flavors of music, they’ll always divide them into increasingly meaningless categories

i think their issue with sanders is the letters in his name, if i’m reading that correctly

The Root fandom is dying!

Once upon a time, in a kingdom far, far away, an evil, pumpkin-colored king named Dottard Grump ruled the land.

no, i am tomato

oh please. bernie sanders fans are the reason bloomberg has supporters? bullshit, as though plenty of pundits and dnc flacks aren’t lining up to take his loads purely because he’s a billionaire. you can’t blame the support for one candidate on support for another candidate, not unless you want to abdicate all…

i’m not voting for him if he’s the nominee

i will venmo anybody who kills elon musk up to like $150

he is the leading man after all

Not only is it continually funny for one of Star Wars’ most beloved actors to have nothing but disdain for the franchise, it’s also...the right way to watch Star Wars, probably? I mean, when you’re talking about a wise mentor pulling aside the veil of death to impart some key wisdom to a pupil from beyond the grave,…

hey this is you

Really not sure what’s going on with the dark hints of ‘One Winged Angel” during the Midgar flyover. What does Sephiroth have to do with Midgar itself? Feels like they should have used the Shinra theme instead, unless Sephiroth’s role in this game is even more expanded than the earlier trailers suggested.

that’s pretty cool dude, do you deadname trans people if you think they’re not cool enough?

For a site that cares a lot about crunch (rightfully so), I feel like the closure of the VFX studio that made this should be a bigger mark against it. Producer exploitation of labor and entitled fanboy demands directly caused people to lose their jobs, and all we get is a forgettable CGI animal movie. This movie…

His early work was a little too new wave for my taste. But when Ace Ventura came out in ‘94, I think he really came into his own, commercially and artistically. The whole performance has clear, crisp poop jokes, and a new sheen of consummate professionalism that really gives the shameless mugging a big boost. He’s…

embarrassing to admit that in public, dude

this is an idiotic take. sonic is a movie for kids because every sonic game is for kids. do you think Fast Blue Rat: The Movie is going to make more money if it’s marketed to hyperactive children or if it’s marketed to 30-year-old gamers in perpetually arrested development?

wahhh this movie website likes parasite and doesn’t like somic the hodgepog it’s almost like they have an appreciation for artistry or something
