I, uh, get most of the removals except the Community one. Can’t they just edit the episode around that? Hell, just blur Chang out completely and you still sort of get the joke: Drows resemble blackface.

Finally watched it. Verdict? I needed this movie. Such a fun ride. It wasn’t like, a masterpiece, but it was so pleasant. And I liked the relationship at the center of it! I bought it! Sigrit is a wonderful character, who I appreciated was given the proper amount of shading outside of her relationship with Lars: “oh…

I absolutely mean it when I say that she deserved some sort of award for her performance in Game Night. She sold not only her character’s obsession with winning but that she was genuinely in love with her husband. “Oh no, he died!” had me cackling in my seat. Perfect.

I’m not a developer by any means, but here’s how I was looking at it: Add in the many, many customization options to the base character > swap out regular eyes for the weird concave multi-eye augmentations + the arm augmentations + leg augmentations, etc. and make sure they interact well with the environment and base…

With the amount of “physical augmentation” options that are apparently present, I can imagine that a 3rd person version of this game could quickly turn into a nightmare to handle. 

Re: Hacking and Stealth. You should give Watch_Dogs a try, particularly Watch_Dogs 2. The story isn’t as involved as this, but I loved how you could ghost an entire level/stage if you were clever about positioning and using your drones. I infiltrated a military base and completed a mission without setting foot into…

That looks amazing. 

Wait, is Lashana Lynch playing 355? That’s great casting.

Yeah, you just get it with Hulu. Which is a great deal, but it’s a confusing name. I have Hulu with Live TV so I already had FX stuff, and I didn’t realize that it was also its own thing until recently. It’s FXX all over again!

He made his movies his way, and, damn it, that was worth a lot.

I’m so sad this show will never come out. The writers were strong. The cast was strong. I don’t know why Freeform couldn’t at least give it a season, considering. Their slate isn’t exactly strong. 

There’s no therapy in a Galaxy Far, Far Away, I guess?

Bummer, drummer, but at least Serj and Daron are still cool. (Daron’s still cool, right?)

One of the all-time greats. RIP, Denny. Thank you for the comics. 

His stuff on Batman is rightfully considered legendary—because it is—but The Question was my introduction to his writing. It remains one of my favorite runs ever. Just: the bravery of taking Ditko’s characterization of Vic and then going through the *process* of turning him into someone else. Genius. 

Doom Patrol season one was an unexpected delight. It was so strange and disparate and willing to go there that I couldn’t help but be bowled over and fall in love with this adaptation. Speaking of: April Bowlby is a goddamn star. I loved her work with Rita, and I think this version has become my standard for all other…

I restarted it today. Hadn’t played it since it came out. But I had to put it down after jay prologue. Gonna try again during the day.

The most I know about Perry Mason is that the name rings a bell to me when it’s mentioned. It’s a one of those wonderfully lyrical names that are also completely normal. It’s Matthew Rhys in the role of an investigator. I’m 100% in. Might even get to try out the old novels, if it’s good.

I loved the Artemis Fowl books as a kid. I thought his arc (antagonist to anti-hero to reluctant ally to hero) is one of the best character arcs in YA lit. So the movie that completely doing away with the major defining feature of the Artemis Fowl series being only “OK?” Yeah, that tracks. Still, if it gets more kids…

I’m hoping we get more of the vampire hunter club next season. I really thought they were going to be a bigger focus this time around, but I loved what little we got. And that one dude is 100% coming back as a vampire, right?
