Not you and me, though, right?

He has a thing where he pretends he has a daughter and tells everyone about his perfect adorable 6-year-old like she's real. Nicknames and everything.

It's a bullshit complaint. Dowd gives A's as regularly as anyone else here, and he loves popcorn cinema. He gave an A to It Follows, just off the top of my head, and he loved Fury Road.

This really is the year of quiet ordinariness at the movies, huh?

Dead Man is actually the only Jarmusch film that Inreally love, rather than finding a pleasant experience.

Thanks for that— I didn't want to say anything, since I'm a relative newcomer, but it was always weird to see it unremarked-upon.

It is so clearly Miyazaki's game, which is incredible— the man just put out a masterpiece last year, doesn't he need to sleep? In the past 7 years, he's produced four games, all of which have arguments for a place among the all-time greats.

Randy Pitchford says a lot of things.

People put up with the creepy daughter thing, which is astounding and I don't understand at all, can I just say that? I don't want to bring it up because everyone else seems to be okay with it, but it's weird, right?

It's a very, very good film. That's the plot, but it executes that plot really well.

Indigo Prophecy is a great example, because in the first ten minutes I thought "hey, I'm playing both sides of the criminal case! That's a really neat idea!" And then ten minutes later realized that it meant that I would constantly be sabotaging my own character to keep the story moving along.

Not all alike— I doubt anyone here has a Boglin fleshlight.

Inside! Hell yeah, probably my GOTY. It's hard to compare it to DS3, X-COM 2, or Stardew, each of which I've put at least 100 hours into, but nothing else this year took me to as many strange and wonderful places. The mix of nausea, dread, wonderment, guilt, and curiosity was really special, and it honestly made me…

The fact that it was good at all, let alone legitimately great, is something of a minor miracle. I've never been a true-blue serious FF fan, but news of its success made me honestly feel really happy for a lot of people.

It's so much better than I thought it would be. I still probably don't like it as much as the original or Bloodborne, but it's sad and haunting and weird in all the right ways.

I had a hard time with the DLC, just because Cage loves killing and menacing Madison in tons of awful sexualized ways (her introduction is a sexual assault nightmare, she can get groin-drilled by a third, unrelated serial killer) and really indulged in it there. Definitely agree that it's the best part of the game…

Ah shit, didn't realize Apocalypse Now was his third movie, not his first. "Breakout," then, not debut.

God, that sketch is a masterpiece. Feels so prophetic of the "good ally" debate.

Years ago, my friend and I came up with the idea for a movie called Officer Baby. Bruce Willis would star as Detective James Baby, a hard boiled cop who ends up having to take his baby to work on the day that he also has to bust a major drug cartel played by Willem Dafoe.
