“Harrison Ford was one superhero but everyone was confused because he got the shit beaten out of him at the end by the other superhero, who they thought was the bad guy, but turned out to be a good guy.”

Magnus: I actually have no opinion about robots.

Interviewer: But aren’t you the famous robot fighter?

Magnus: Listen, robot fighting pays twenty bucks an hour and I’ve got student loans.

I heard someone call it this year’s Cyberpunk 2077, but that’s not really fair. At least Cyberpunk was a brand-new title. This is just a half-assed remaster of some 20 year old games. This should be the easiest money Rockstar ever made. The fact that they somehow managed to screw it up, and then compounded it by…

Wow, that guy fucking hates robots.

It’s not just that Iron Fist should be Asian because he’s a martial arts hero, it’s that Danny Rand’s whole backstory is a particularly egregious example of the trope where the lone white character is the most skilled person in the setting. Danny’s origin is basically, “in a hidden city where everyone is a martial…

I also felt like the characters were distant and unlikable at first, and I’m guessing it’s an intentional choice because it fits the story’s themes so well. They go from looking down on humanity and thinking they’re doing good by guiding/controlling humans, to realizing their attempts at guidance do more harm than…

A company that has become synonymous with sexual harassment and which has become notorious with refusing to promote women or PoC, has once again refused to promote any women or PoC.

Because late capitalism is built on the assumption that there are Infinity people in the world and so the consumer base can and must ALWAYS grow.

“They are still projected to have more subscribers than Netflix or Amazon within a few years.”

Star doesn’t exist in North America, though Disney does try to get people to sign up for a bundle that includes Disney+, Hulu, and for some reason, ESPN. But at that point, you’re basically paying for cable.

You know when you’ll stop hearing about it? When there is no longer income disparity everywhere.

Until then, fuck the rich.

If you’re that interested in the “line of income demarcation,” good news: The federal poverty line exists, has existed for decades, and it’s not Katie’s job to tell you about it. Tax brackets are also a thing. This is public information. Go look it up.

Probably, but the “bad guys” think he did, so it’s weird that we’re meant to root against desperate people who want to recover stolen property that could save them from homelessness.

She has never been a protagonist. She was a supporting character in two movies. Until this movie gets made with her in the lead, she’s not protagonist of anything and more easily replaceable as a result. You’re inflating her importance. There’s a reason why the movie is called “Black Panther 2" and not “The New…

It doesn’t mean scrapping the film, it means starting over. Which Disney already did one at least one Marvel film (Ant-Man) which went on to be a success anyway.

Except they’re not certificates of ownership. They have no legal standing whatsoever. They grant you no rights of ownership in any way. If you doubt me, go try and sue the guy who right clicked and saved on “your” NFT and watch as you get laughed out of court.

A car pink slip gives you legal ownership over a tangible…

Chopper and Robin don’t join up until a bit later in the story than these original five. They’re probably being saved for season 2.

I can see the comparison being made just on the level of DENSITY there is to both worlds. One Piece’s world is incredibly detailed and complex, but it never feels too dense because the author is skilled at delivering information in an entertaining way. Tolkein was good at this too. But I think the main comparison is…

Wow, so you’re humorless AND defensive. Truly a joy to be around, no doubt.
