I’m actually on a panel at SDCC this year with a union actor.  We’re there to promote various books, but Felicia Day is one of the panelists as well.  I assume she’ll be able to be there either way as a result of being there as an author, but we’ll see.  Oh lord, I just realized what it’s gonna look like if she bails…

Like you can just feel him thinking “This money is gonna cost me integrity and fans. I better start out on the offensive and call everyone hypocritical children for the crime of participating in society. A little whataboutism will surely sell more pictures of chicken wings or whatever my deal is.” It’s not even good…

See, the twitter one is pretty barebones. What you really want is the Instagram one that had this as the anticipatory opening defense.  Like he knew he was about to say something wildly unpopular because a company was going to pay him money.

Is that Northrend one where you absolutely positively have to torture a guy still in the game?

Oh well that’s a shame. I would have hoped they’d bond over both being NFT dipshits.

Yeah, that’s almost certainly what it was. All “Rey (A FEMALE) discovers that a boy jedi is worse than ANOTHER FEMALE, and that that one will become the new Jedi girlboss forever. Meanwhile all the boys from Star Wars died of space cooties and manspreading.”

Back in ‘77-80 the big rumor was that Boba Fett (revealed in the holiday special and promised to be in Empire) was going to be Luke’s long lost dad.

I doubt there’s even the first hints of a script here. This movie was 100% the result of a meeting between Bad Bunny and some Sony exec, followed by some intern googling “Latino Spider-Man villains” at 3 am.

One for Martin, two for Martin! Would you like another recount?

What would functionally be the difference? Why not call Ember and Wade fire and water monsters that live in a predominately water monster city? Monster is after all a fairly nebulous concept. And these aren’t really the first living flames and puddles that kids have been asked to accept over the years. Certainly don’t…

It looked a lot like they were trying to reference the Deep Dream era of computer assembled art, only with skrulls instead of endless dog faces. It made sense to me conceptually (“everyone looks weird and just a hint Skrull-ish, is there an invasion or am I crazy?)“, enough that figured at best they used AI for some…

You were blessed.  It sucks even more than being last on this list can convey.

I’m not really seeing that as a truism. I feel like Elemental is as easy to explain as Zootopia, probably easier to explain than Monsters Inc (“it’s a romantic comedy and it’s set in a town where elements live and sometimes the elements don’t get along especially the kinds that the two leads are” vs. “monsters live in…

“Immediately facetimed his young actor to tell him he wanted to kiss his ears mid-interview” feels like it was lifted from an article about why a director shouldn’t get to work anymore.

No way, the ending will be as follows

Spider-Man/Morbius/Venom/El Muerto will be on TV.  It’ll pan around to Kraven sitting in his dumb abs chair.  He will say “We have new prey” to a lion or something that appears from the background.  More credits.

How many articles about this do you think you can get to in a week?  I think there’s an achievement for getting to 20, like it comes with a mount and a title and stuff.

Hoping for a Gwenom and maybe a Ben Stacy where she either did or didn’t transition in that universe.

I’m just staying out of Elemental because Pixar movies used to always have something special to twist them in a fun way. But this one looks like such a basic ass romantic comedy. Like it’s just “Somewhat goofy dude meets slightly hotheaded woman, they fall in love despite being from different traditional backgrounds,…

V has rock solid mechanics, but the dumbest story of the SNES entries. It sounds like at least one of them is just waxing rhapsodic about the design process, which is cool, and the other two are both citing the mechanics, which is absolutely correct, but the villain is like an evil tree that wants to end two universes…

It also made it fairly apparent that chocobos are war steeds.  So yeah, the silly elements have been around for a long long time.
