Hades was first released in early access in December 2018, and you’re STILL mad that it has black people in it. Just a really healthy thing for you to spend three and a half years fixating on.

“I’m indifferent to whether they get fired or not.”

Smaller conventions seem to be better for this sort of thing. The atmosphere is a bit more personal and chill, and that also creates a level of social pressure to not say anything stupid.

You have a once in a lifetime chance to ask a question of your favorite celebrity. Clearly you should use this opportunity to make a Tiktok of yourself saying a meme.

It’s swirlin’ time!

The media seems to be overlooking a crucial point when it comes to this story:

So, just to be clear, in your mind mildly inconveniencing a millionaire is an unforgivable act of evil cancel culture, but firing dozens of working class people for having the wrong opinion is just fine? We got that right?

Isn’t Northern Island where Sonic the Hedgehog lives.

Saving the Beholder for the next trailer, no doubt.

DM: Eve, do you take an action?

Most of the takes I’ve seen calling this lame seem to come from people who seem committed to some dated “LOL, D&D is for neeeeeerrrrds” bit. This looks fun, it looks self-aware in a way that’s not obnoxious.

This looks great, though? It feels like it might capture the spirit of a lighthearted D&D campaign, with a fun diverse party who don’t take themselves too seriously. The masterstroke is that they included the one guy in every RPG group who tries too hard to look cool and ends up looking like a massive dork instead.…

Me too, but it looks like it’s been delayed to 2023 (it was originally announced for this Feburary) so I’ll probably forget all about it again until the next trailer.

It could be similar to the first episode of the 90's X-Men cartoon, where the team had already existed for a while and the story was told from the point of view of Jubilee, as she starts as an ordinary teen, discovers she’s a mutant, gets recruited by Xavier, meets the X-Men, and has her first adventure with them.…

Watch the movie deal with this in like one sentence of dialogue.

Nah, they’ve already changed the entire planet, but just because mutants are giving out life-extending medicines and Mars is no longer called Mars, that doesn’t mean Peter Parker isn’t going to have trouble paying his rent. These things aren’t mutually exclusive, especially in a setting as huge as Marvel’s.

Not really? The whole deal with the Inhumans is that they’re a royal family, so (in theory) you get family intrigue and such. Also, they’re hidden from the world and so come off as very alien and otherworldly.

You can just picture Miyamoto and the gang being so repulsed by whatever the Minions people have done with their IP that they pull a Bender and decide to make their own Nintendo films, with no blackjack or hookers, except of course in the Wario movie.

I feel like the Karachi episodes would have worked better with more of the sketchbook flourishes that the Jersey episodes had. They should have felt more like we were still seeing things from inside Kamala’s head. The one exception should have been the flashback to her Great-Grandma’s youth, which would have stood out…

On the one hand, the bangle seems like a perfectly reasonable explanation for why Kamala has powers but her mom and brother don’t, so it’s weird that Bruno even thought the question was worth looking into. Maybe if Kamala had taken off the bangle and given it to Aamir and then nothing happened, but that doesn’t seem…
