Another one that never gets old. They cannot send a white woman to prison. They will bend over backwards and make every excuse in the world. And when they absolutely must, then the creativity of mitigating factors goes to 12.

What games does it chug on? Crysis, maybe? Legend of the Tomb Raider? No big deal to me. As long as it plays GTAV, Streets of Rage 4 and RaceRoom with no problem, I’m fine with it... because I’ll probably be playing MUCH less taxing games!

I’ve said it elsewhere - Johansson had to have come to them with a number that would have made her “whole” and kept this out of the public eye. I’d be interested in that number vs what they end up paying.

It’s pretty simple. If Johansson had a legal contract with Disney specifying the movie only being released in theaters only, of which she got a specific cut of EACH ticket sold( as is the standard for a lot of bigger stars these days) , then Disney ,by releasing it to streaming the same day ( and not compensating her…

Hell yeah, this article about to be a classic. I got into an argument with a troll called PEEPL or some shit yesterday on this exact topic. They also ASSUME that we don’t talk about the  homophobia or violence within our community and love to grandstand on the bullshit they spew. From posting false reports to fake…

It’s not even deconstructing the genre, it’s just reiterating the genre’s tropes with cursing and gore. The core fantasy of a superhero movie is a morally righteous person using violence to solve an existential problem - it’s very much a product of the World War 2 / postwar era. “Logan” comes the closest to actually…

I have no idea what white people talk about when Black people are not around.

I’m really looking forward to your next album “The Hard Day’s Night.”

Oh my goodness. Everyone knows it’s Ants-Mans.

Yup. They liked having that racism there, even if it was unenforceable, because just its past existence gave them the warm fuzzy sense of superiority. Probably found ways to work it into a lot of conversations as a microagression in a “just sayin’” kinda way.

When did Hollywood decide that adding or subtracting a “The” was sufficient to distinguish between movies, even if they came out only a few years apart and feature overlap in casts? Anyway, I hope you all buy the debut album from my band, Beatles.

“Removing these covenants is rewriting history! If we don’t remember our past, we’re doomed to repeat it! People who are removing these are the real racists! I don’t approve of the covenants, but this isn’t the right process!” - some bullshit grievance actor in the near future.

I wouldn’t erase it from a book, but I couldn’t read it out loud from a book.

“We need to stop the racial slurs that the mayor makes,” Bryant said.

I feel like going handheld with full capability is the only move the consoles have left, and SSD is the new Cartridge... And I welcome it! XD

Honestly this keep being talked by a certain crowd as a Switch contender, but I wonder if the market that might need to worry the most might not be Xbox/Playstation.
While a lot was written about “You can play Doom Eternal on the go!”/etc, ultimately these big “AAA”-style games have never really been the ones that sold…

More as a general comment on teh games of that era, what is actually pretty striking in retrospect is how often the main characters were utterly unlikable. It was the era of antihero, but it somehow felt even more present in games as they just assumed that the players would most identify and cheer for dicks.

Exactly. As someone else already pointed out, they only put that disclaimer up to avoid getting sued. They were otherwise more than happy to broadcast every second of his lies.

The whole purpose of the federal First Amendment (at least as it pertains to speech) is that it protects speech that some people might find offensive. If the First Amendment only protected innocuous speech that everyone agreed with, we wouldn’t need the “free speech” portion of the First Amendment.
