Well seeing as it is a foreign language film, once it’s won best picture, how could any other film win best foreign language film?

Wow LiA, the art is amazing but that is confusing as hell. Both in terms of the sense of movement and what the joke is supposed to be.

The echo chambers have made a lot of people willfully stupid. And the existence of religion shows that people want to be told what to think even if it doesn’t make sense under even slight scrutiny.

Out of all the horribleness that is supporting Trump, two of the most annoying features are the blatant, willful stupidity and hypocrisy. That they do stuff like this, yet also yell “fake news” about anything they don’t like irrespective of veracity, exemplifies these terrible failings so starkly. These people’s…

Yeah, I barely play BLM as the movement dynamic can get really annoying. I’ve been dps’ing mostly as MCH as the freedom of movement is amazing and it’s easy to play so I don’t have to be crazy-focused on rotation - I’ve always been somewhat annoyed with MNK as the constant focus on rotation causes me frustration when…

As someone who has played every role since the beginning, I definitely noticed a marked change in how most tanks behave since the latest expac came out. They simplified tanking materially to get more people tanking, which it looks like has happened, but the result is there are a lot of these pretty basic run-and-gun ta…

Every game is different. In 5, you take chip damage but the only chip damage that can kill you is from a super. There isn’t a universal parry system. There is a V-skill and V-trigger system in place (V-skill can be used at all times, V-trigger has its own bar to build up first), which gives every character a unique…

Agreed, there’s not really anything he does that is in any way well-meaning, it’s all at its core tremendously selfish. He gets mistreated by Dennis and his dad so people have sympathy for him, but victimhood isn’t itself a positive characteristic.

You assert that refusing to let him testify was reason for the republicans to shut the democrats out of the trial and treat it like a joke. That is incorrect. As I stated, the republicans calling him to testify was a trick to manipulate the impeachment trial into something else. The democrats focusing on the actual…

Your responses here are really weird.

Because there are decades of stories to pull from that were difficult or impossible to do well before, some of which can make for interesting movies. They have a built-in excuse to be able to do things that would be ridiculous otherwise - aliens, time travel, super powers, almost anything interesting but suspension of …

Yes, exactly. She has so much more range than the role gave her, that role being an extraordinarily dull person, smirking as she is completely defined by her powers and the people around her. Even looking at the source material, the character seems mostly to be an army archetype with interesting things happening…

An argument could be that, assuming you can control who has the app, you can control who is sending the texts. It’s not a good argument, which is what makes me think it’s one they’d use.

I’ve always been super into the series, but Infinite was the first one in like twenty years I didn’t get. Kept a close eye on it up to release and it was just constantly disappointing, but mostly it was the fact that a Vs. game without any X-Men characters is insane. If they had somehow really beefed up and…

I absolutely agree that his political expectation of the show is just stupid. It’s a comedy show, and any social commentary is in service of that. Holding it to some level of social responsibility is insulting to the public, and viewing it through a lens more focused on that then comedy makes for reviews that can only…

I know the only thing as popular as complaining about the quality of SNL is criticizing those who complain, but wow, this episode. I’ve watched SNL pretty consistently for over twenty years, and when there’s an exceptionally bad episode I’m generally just disappointed. But this is the first episode to actually make me…

Totally agree about FF6: it was great to meet and collect all the distinct, interesting characters with unique abilities, but once you did there wasn’t a lot fleshed out for them storywise.

Those absolute bastards. I haven’t gotten into a Disgaea game for years as its capacity for completely insane amounts of grinding deeply exploits my near total lack of personal time management, but auto-battling and 8x speed would allow me to excessively grind passively.

This is a bizarre focus. While colonialism was truly horrific, and you’re right to criticize Columbus Day (the man was an idiot and a monster, using his bad math as a justification for intercontinental theft and murder, who got exceptionally lucky and was only baselessly glorified to manipulate religious and patriotic…

I had never watched an episode before last night. The first episode you watch being the show’s last is generally a terrible idea, but I happened to be watching TV when it came on and I was curious about what would happen after Crisis. My takeaway was that I saved a ton of time avoiding this show.
