I don't know about this. I love the book and I'd be excited to see it get a good adaptation, but… 10 episodes? That's about as long as a season of Game of Thrones, for a book that has a third as many pages and a fifth as much plot. That book is a lean machine and gets so much of intensity from the fact that it's…

I'm pretty sure he did create #FucKonami though. Plus he's been covering Konami's shenanigans for years; they blacklisted him from press and review copies at least 3-4 years ago.

Nah. Some developer working at Konami made Blades of Steel, and then Konami likely reassigned him to be a security guard and took his name out of the credits.

The game side takes a lot of work— it's actually not as unprofitable as people think, but it took micromanaging, planning, a PR team, and it's unpredictable. MGS V probably made back its budget, but Kojima can go over budget and over schedule, while a Pachinko machine just gets put together in a factory. They're a…

They're very cutscene heavy, sure. But the claim that Kojima really wants to make a movie does a disservice to him. Sons of Liberty, for example, tells a lot of its story through gameplay— the character of Raiden is established in part by how he moves and controls, and it themes of programming and information control…

That's not really fair. MGS V was one of the most engaging and creative sandbox games I've ever played and had a huge amount of freedom and flexibility. MGS 3 had a ton of gameplay and offered the player an unprecedented level of free-form gamplay and a wide range of interlocking systems. The guy likes his cutscenes,…

Ugh.

It's okay. I don't think I'm capable of feeling any more anyway.

"People II: The Reckoning" for me. "Here's to you, Mrs. Robinson. YOU LIVE IN AN UNFORGIVING PLACE." Blew my mind and sent me down a huge rabbit hole.

Meth I love you but you're wrong. Buckley's got nothing on Cale, who has sounded like a tired old man forever. The song needs to sound like there's a hundred years of life behind it, and Buckley's angelic voice just doesn't do it for me. Cale is exactly how the song is meant to sound.

You ever hear Jawbreaker's "With or Without U2?" That song works so great as a fast punk number. Same song also includes a snippet of "Turning Japanese," which got me to start taking the Vapors seriously as songwriters, which I wish more people would do.

Same here. I picked up In Utero when I was in high school in the mid-2000s and it blew my ducking mind.

I'm gonna steal the Declaration of Independence.

Hey come on. He had to watch a lot of his friends die in Green Room.

Man, that's just making me think of the great bit in Manhunter where Hannibal is monologuing about god and death and Will just rolls up his eyes and hangs up on him.

It probably does what the one in my town does, which is media transfer. It's a fantastic record store because the owner doesn't give a shit about making a profit on the inventory; it's just a way for him to relax and show off all his Wynonie Harris 45s while most of the money comes from people paying him to make DVDs…

Amy's Baking Company… ABC… like how children learn the alphabet! Molested children! And they're "serving" them like "baked Alaska" to the Palins! It's so simple!

Oh shit, Mica Levi. I wasn't planning on seeing this in theaters, but that sold me. I would be so happy to see her take home a trophy.

I wish his talent had picked a better person.

Guys, it's not a snuff year.
