Oh! I guess I was technically correct since it's produced by The Weinstein Company and not Miramax, but obviously this is a case where technically correct was not the best kind of correct. That being said, that does not make your statement less stupid since the movie that made Lawrence's career...

Last I checked, Black Panther did not bomb in China. It performed on par with other super hero movies. Same in Europe. The movie massively over-performed in the US though.

I am sorry to be the bearer of bad news (well... bad news for you), but Jennifer Lawrence never worked in a Miramax picture.

To get the full inverted experience, I recommend Operation Red Sea or, even more extreme, Wolf Warrior 2.

I played the PSP version of this during train commutes. So I played it one hour a day, five days a week and it took me I think a couple months to reach one of the endings and for a long while after that I was doing aternative paths, triggering secret events, etc, etc.... This is one hell of a...

It's difficult to understate how stupid it is to assume the new ideas of a dev team that had dozens of great ideas will suddenly be bad. No one knew they liked Souls games before From Software made Souls games. If Sekiro is not a Soul game, great! Maybe we'll discover we like Sekiro games even...

Yeah. I have seen more than my fair share of asian movies and still from time to time I get confused (usually if it's a classic story that does a poor work at exposition or if it's a, let's say, experimental story and the ambiguities leaks out to who is who). Though I saw it more than 20 years...

@Void Oh ok! My confusion came for the fact that googling for an Attack on Titan movie only gave me the Warner Bros version that is in development. Thanks for nothing Google!

I replaced a couple times in a group that plays this game. Pretty fun. I also played the Mindthief and my only troubles were not understanding why I would not always use the damage augment and when would be a good time to summon rats. In the first game I did not take the rats, and in the 2nd...

Are you from the future to compare the cast of two unreleased movies or am I just confused?

@spronk Ghost of Tsushima is made by Sucker Punch (the american studio of Infamous), Sekiro: Shadows Die Twice is made by From Software (the japanese studio of Dark Souls / Bloodborne). I suspect the Sucker Punch will be more impressive on a technical level, but that the From Software game will...

I am not 100% sure of the details, but my understanding is that the 3DS is a crippled version as far as sharing levels you made and playing specific levels other people made. I would investigate a bit before jumping in if I were you. I think the people who want that never made an actual decent...

I might buy a Switch to ride the SMM2 wave from the start.

Let me Google that for you.

It's not really a top 3 when one game has 90% of the market though.

Checked a little bit of this: Grey characters shooting at grey characters in a brown level. I can't muster even the tiniest bit of interest for this.

"You can consider yourself a hero." Most passive-aggressive congratulation text ever....

To go back to the Academy Awards for 2005, I would say one thing they had going for them is that the best song was "It's Hard out Here for a Pimp"! Seriously though, the field was not so hot with Brokeback Mountain, Capote, Good Night & Good Luck and Munich (4 solid but not exactly stellar...

In your analysis, you all seem to forget that Black Panther is also 2018's highest grossing film in the US. Infinity War is not that far behind, but it's behind.

By the way, the pal version of the game uses robots instead of people and the japanese version of the game was on a custom cartridge that allowed more room for animated backgrounds and cut scenes between levels. I *think* the fact it used a custom cartridge makes it unplayable in some (all?)...

You should not. It aged surprisingly well and is very enjoyable. I said it in the other thread, but I'll say it again: I recommend playing with the 30 lives code through the game several times and before you know it you will no longer need the code!

Oh and some notes about the Best Foreign Language Film category: Capernaum: released around here, Not seen. Cold War: released around here. Not seen. Looked a bit formulaic to me and I was not in the mood for this type of story (woman in love with crappy man). Supposedly very good though...

Released in 2017 in the UK but in 2018 in the US and across Europe, my top film of the year is probably The Death of Stalin. Other strong contenders were, in no order: One Cut of the Dead: japanese zombie tour de force. The Battleship Island (Director's Cut): over the top korean historical...

This tantrum is even funnier when you google image search Zendaya.

I have not played Axiom Verge so I can't give you my opinion on the matter, but my understanding is that people who played both tend to prefer Environmental Station Alpha. Sadly, many players see ESA and don't want to play it because of its low resolution visuals. I would argue though that...

Obligatory plug to a metroidvania I tested during development and that got released at about the same time than Axiom Verge: Environmental Station Alpha. Here is an interesting comparison video. Maybe don't watch it all because it goes deep into spoiler territory by the end.

I played it recently. I recommend using the 30 lives code and then playing through the game several time. Before you know it you will not need the code and with a little focus you can 1CC the game like I did /flex.

Whoever nominated Urban Champion did not vote for it though.

I think I already made that comment in another thread, but in this films the characters travel to the future while in the first film they traveled to the past. The first film worked because going back in time allows for a lot of nostalgia, references, bitter sweet comedy, jokes based on the...

The first problem is that you think these films are "artsy fartsy." Roma might be the only one that could sorta apply (my understanding being that the Yorgos Lanthimos is good but significantly more accessible that some of his previous works). That being said, the Academy Awards did not shy away...

Hasn't this game been in beta for the better part of a decade? If not, it sure feels like it...

Well... I voted for the two games I own and have not beaten. I'll find a way to play Eye of the Beholder if it ends up winning though.

You must not be an accountant...

I played a little bit of DKC2 and it felt better. It's unclear if I got used to the style, if the camera is better or if the level design accommodates for the field of view better (maybe a little bit of all 3?). At first I thought Diddy's sprite might be a tad smaller, so I pixel counted its...

The problem would be to make a game list though. Shadow Man and GTA: San Andreas are the only two oldish games that come to mind with a black main character. You can add some brawlers and fighting games that have multiple characters and also many sport games (mostly basketball), but that's about...

On a side note The 6th Sense is not Shyamalan's first movie, it's his 3rd. He first did Praying With Anger (in which he also plays the lead) and then Wide Awake (a comedy). Never seen those though, and I doubt many people did. By the way, there is something that I suspect is pretty rare in...

Apparently the guy who puts the runs on youTube is sick so it should take a few.

Opposable thumbs > flying

I will take the argument from the other side. Good old Jean-Luc Godard used to say that you cannot make a great movie from a great book, so you better pick a mediocre book. The idea behind this is that for a book to be great, it must use the specificities of its medium, so if you try to port it...
