Lazy MF marketing team. What’s next, another chicken sandwich?

The problem is that from 1983 to 1990 Burger King did not serve Coca Cola, only Pepsi products.

“you’d think in an upside-down sandwich that the meat would rest on the top bun”

They should have gone all out, send specially made cups with the angle reversed, so the top is smaller, and the BK name and logo also upside down.  Special fry ‘cups’ too, same as the drinks cups, reversed geometry.  It would have been so simple, and the packaging would turn into collectors items, make those ‘upside

In true fast food fashion, they’ll probably flub the order and serve it to you right side up. On the flip side (see what i did there, eh? EH?) it would be funny to have someone come in demanding their order be correct, for a bored teenager to just take the burger from them, turn it over and hand it right back to them. 

That’s my biggest complaint - they look too similar to the MCU. In turn, it makes them look like off-brand versions of the MCU characters, and just makes it come across as worse. I would have much rather had drastically different designs because at least then Crystal Dynamics could claim that they were putting their

his. When I saw the peter parker in spiderman PS4 game in 2018, he looked like Peter Parker more than Tobey, Tom holland and andrew garfield did. The costume in the marvel PS4 spiderman game is vastly different than the classic one, but the game starts off with the classic costume.

The difference is that Conroy isn’t pretending to be Keaton, Bale, or Affleck (were there two Batman actors I’m forgetting?) These folks are doing everything to invoke the movies, but leaving you in this awkward uncanny valley where the voice *should* be familiar.

When he’s walking, yeah.

Nailed it. The costumes aren’t good, and the voice actors (while supremely talented) are a detriment to this franchise, particularly when there are VAs that have been voicing these characters for the better part of a decade. 

Exactly this.  What the hell is going on with Thor’s cape in this game?  And Cap’s outfit just looks awful.

A minor nit to pick:

Yeah, this initially surprised me, but it’s pretty easy to add broccoli to almost any dish, either as an accompaniment or a side. Heck, I just made beef stroganoff last weekend and threw half a head of broccoli I had laying around in it, and it was delicious.

Man, I was interested in the idea of an Avengers game (even with the idea that it might be a service game a la Destiny) but this doesn’t look demonstrably better than, like... the Iron Man or Captain America games based on the MCU from ten years ago.

This 100%

Not getting the actor’s likeness rights is going to hurt. People have been watching these characters for a decade now. They know what they look like. Stylized would have been a better choice than realistic without those likeness rights.

BS on corn not being the favorite in Iowa

I’m guessing this is “first vegetable I can think of off the top of my head” than anything, but broccoli is also great if you cook it correctly. It’s my go to for dinner more often than not.

Dull surprise there. It would be interesting to have a role reversal Zelda story sometime, however Nintendo is gonna Nintendo.

Yeah, this is pretty much confirmation that there’s no playable Zelda. I think, rather than playing coy, he was genuinely confused as to how everyone got this idea in their head.
