It’s weird how both female-led MCU films are flashback movies taking place in the past.

Oh hi, are you from the alternate dimension where shitty movies don’t make lots of money? Wow, it must be so weird for you here on our planet.

This is a really good point. In real life, sometimes it’s easier and more beneficial to be an asshole, so people end up doing it even if they wouldn’t be otherwise inclined to. In Mass Effect, the game is set up so Renegades and Paragons are equally powerful. This was done to make it so you aren’t incentivized toward…

It’s my favorite recurring AV Club character, Bobby Chicago!

Of course the ratings have been going down for years. The ratings for *every* network show have been going down for years. That’s the age of streaming for you.

Who knows what adventures the Simpsons will have between now and when the show becomes unprofitable?

She has all the powers of the police, and she also has the power to throw her purse at people. It’s right there in her name: PursePolice. Except she spelled it wrong.

A GLOW fighting game. It could have been a reality. You blew it, Netflix. You destroyed everything.

I can’t be the only person who saw that headline image and immediately thought of David Xanatos.

For the same reason we engage emotionally with any fictional character?

The original headline was better.

I can’t believe that Kotaku, a site for video game opinions, published an opinion about a video game! Disgusting and unforgivable. As a paying subscriber, I don’t exist because this site is free.

I think the difference between this and The Simpsons hitting it big was that Rick and Morty became popular and THEN got a wave of merch and ad tie-ins. With The Simpsons, both things happened at once: Fox licensed the show for merchandising before the first episode even aired. Part of what fed Bartmania was that there…

Don’t sweat it, Rick and Morty are in the movie literally all of ten seconds. Rick speaks two sentences and then leaves.

Now now, need to get all defensive just because someone doesn’t adore the giant sperm cartoon.

On the other hand, “The Toiletnator” has just GOT to be the name of a Doofenschmirtz invention. It perfectly fits his naming theme!

I remember a decade ago when Cartoon Network had its own Smash-style fighter. “Cartoon Network Punch-Time Explosion” launched on the 3DS and later on the Wii and 360. And it was...forgettable. So forgettable that I can barely find any decent screenshots for it. But it did feature characters from Ben 10, Johnny Bravo,…
