I can see where the movies have a perception of more legitimacy because they are more likely to be long-lived. Snow White is still kicking around after like 80 years. Even Ariel is going on 30 years old. The tv shows come and go and are forgotten eventually.

One of their more popular children’s shows, Jake and the Neverland Pirates, is 2D. I wouldn’t say it’s hand drawn, but it isn’t 3D animated like Sofia, Elena, or Doc McStuffins. The backgrounds in Jake’s show have a slightly painterly quality that reminds me of Mary Blair. For true hand drawn animation, I think that…

She’s not talking about Republicans, she’s talking about Newt Gingrich, who has spent decades denying that such a thing as white privilege exists and pretty much saying the opposite of what he just said. I’m glad he’s grown and changed his mind, but I didn’t expect him to either.

For whatever reason, some positions retain their titles, and others do not. Technically any former president immediately becomes Mr. (And hopefully someday soon, Mrs./Ms.) as soon as they step out of office. George Bush is now Mr. Bush, or perhaps former President Bush. President Obama will become the same when he…

I do agree it shouldn’t be on the Internet (or mass emailed to everyone, as it seems to have been), but not necessarily for the teachers sake. If the point of the hacker was to point out a toxic culture, bias, or bad teachers then it could easily have gone to the principle, board of Ed, superintendent or The head of…

Teachers definitely have the right to vent, but you're wrong about doing it via a professional service. This school is a public school. They didn't even need to be hacked to access that information, public emails and exchanges are subject to FOIA requests. Anyone who works in the public system would be an idiot to put…

I think the teachers comments went too far, but I agree that the hacker is a dick for making it public, which clearly hurt the students as much as the staff. It would have been better to privately give it to the principal, head of the PTO, or the superintendent to make them aware of the campus culture. That way the…

Me too. To be fair, the spelling doesn’t lend itself towards an immediately obvious pronunciation. I know this pain too well with my own name.

Pretty much you have to know one of the writers, as far as I can tell.

What, didn’t you get yours in the mail? Mine came within three days of signing up for membership along with a Picachu figurine and an Atari joystick for display.

Uhhh that’s a chicken wire fence. There is no way it would hold a friggin’ grizzly bear. That bear can hop right over it if it wanted to.

Forget the NES, Atari basically went under because of the amount of crap shovelware games that flooded the market and diluted consumer trust. E.g. The ET Game and so on

Oh jeez, the poor guy. It's so much worse when not just his heart has been crushed but he's been swindled at the same time. I hope he found something real.

The day after his breakup with his girlfriend of four years, a guy I know went out with the intention of chatting up every woman he could and just getting casual dates. He got one phone number that night; Now we are married and have two children, going on ten years strong. He never did do the casual dating around…

I was really amazed how they managed to make an almost realistic bird look on at her offspring with an expression of mixed pride, tenderness, and bemusement. Only Pixar.

I would definitely recommend waiting to see it in that case. There are quite a few flashback scenes with Dory’s patient and loving, but also concerned, parents working with Dory and her disability. And also Dory’s distress as a child at her limitations. For not crying in public, I imagine this might touch an emotional…

I just saw it today with my three year old. We both thought it was great. But neither of us are jaded film critics, so that helps.

Square Enix shoehorning in unrelated content and fan service? Impossible! I won’t stand for it!

Yep. Creative control and whatever, they can do what they want, but this explanation is lame. I’m all for switching it up and making a female Link or Zelda the star. If they want to keep it the same, fine, but I would rather they just say “we want Link to be the same” rather than this flimsy Triforce balance and “what…

That’s the first thing I noticed too. The caption on the headline screenshot is wrong. She’s not wanted for an “inappropriate relationship,” she’s wanted for statutory rape. Ugh.
