    The book and movie are so different that I can't get behind this. The book is great and the movie is great for way different reasons.

    Game development career thread:

    There is literally no way they are not getting sued into oblivion. The whole "we reserve the right to change the ToS at any time" schtick has been shown to have limits and all the sudden bankrupting games that were developed under a completely different fee schedule is probably too far. This...

    What model did you get? I'm trying to decide between the 60k but models vs the 36k and if I'll ever notice the difference.

    Cord-Cutting, Or How to Stream your Way to Success

    Are you able to watch 4k on it? I have the original box and it works fantastically, but I really want to upgrade to get the ATSC 3.0/4k feeds.

    Cord-Cutting, Or How to Stream your Way to Success

    So has anyone found a good ITPV service for live sports? All of the ones I've tried can't even stream 1080p feeds and they end up looking like garbage.

    Joy Ride (2023)

    I'm so shocked that they tried to recreate The Hangover with Asian women and it is spectacularly bad. It's almost like just writing females as if they were males doesn't ever work and even women don't like to watch it.

    Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Mutant Mayhem (2023)

    It was fine. Actually funny at times, but modern teen humor which missed me, my kids thought it was hilarious. The story elements were genuinely good and the fight scenes were fun, but it suffered from the race and gender swaps for literally no reason. Homo splinter was overblown as they...

    Barbie (2023)

    First off, fuck your carbs, I'll eat crow meat and crow meat only. Second, they tried Gem a few years ago and failed so massively that everyone forgot about it immediately.

    Barbie (2023)

    I am prepared to eat crow about my 2nd week predictions for this movie. It seems I underestimated just how many many middle-aged women were willing to treat this movie like men did with comic book movies. Are there any other female-centric properties like this that can be leveraged to the...

    Barbie (2023)

    I stand corrected. The person who literally fucks dogs was actually just wearing sunglasses and not a retard mask. I was wrong about his relative level of degeneracy.

    Failed streamer teams up with degenerate dog fucker to call men with wives and children incels. Sounds about right.

    Barbie (2023)

    The second week for this movie will be the most interesting thing about it. They specifically lied about the content of the film in all of the run-up marketing, even going as far as to send out executives to claim the movie was not feminist. We know now that is not just false, but it ends with...

    I am being given a business

    I'm amazed that people have issues in their work life like this. Combining any part of your personal and professional life is the stupidest thing you can ever do starting in about 2005, but probably even before that. If you are using a personal phone or computer to discuss business you need...

    Writers Guild Strike 2023

    Everyone keeps talking about residuals like they are a thing that has to exist. Says who? The idea that you get paid for your work and then paid in perpetuity because you did the work is asinine. I can understand if it is worked into a contract for a super star, but for every single jackoff...

    Writers Guild Strike 2023

    That is why I mentioned YouTubers and Twitch streamers. People who already have experience on camera playing to an audience who don't give a flying fuck about SAG. As for writers, fuck writers. There are far too many and the overwhelming majority are goddamn retarded. There are surely more...

    Writers Guild Strike 2023

    Sure, but think of all the moderately successful books out there that you can feed into an AI for a screenplay or "adaptation". Then a non-union scab with knowledge of the material can comb through and clean it up. Viola! Movie script with no (union) writers.

    Writers Guild Strike 2023

    While you are right about the bloated costs of production, I think you're ultimately wrong about the leverage. There hasn't been a time in my life where people care less about TV and movies than today and it shows no signs of suddenly becoming popular with the younger generations. Also, this...

    General Gaming News and Discussion

    Are we starting with the implication that everything they have is not already monetized completely? I mean, they might try to push harder but that is the equivalent of going from 10 to 11 when you are acting like we're going from 0 to 10.

    I get you, but MJ is legitimately great at the game and he seems like a really intelligent, autistic nerd most of the time so it was just a mindfuck that supposedly smart people could be that fucking braindead about something that it is legitimately trivial to research if you have any brainpower.

    The hilarious thing was he announced his non-meat meal to the chat: pita with hummus, french fries, broccoli. He then went on to say chickpeas are a super food and that you could survive off of only quinoa if you could get past the taste, and that we should reduce dairy consumption. I was...

    Jesus Christ, here I am trying to watch some MTG and I am greeted with DarkestMage talking about eating less meat for environmental responsibility. He actually even said that Impossible meat and Beyond meat are great, healthy alternatives. The dude is an out of shape streamer that doesn't see...

    There are several good answers already, but honestly I believe it is overwhelmingly that they have far too many employees that don't do anything while relying on an outdated ad model that flies directly in the face of their content delivery model. I will continue to bring up the point that...

    In this instance, they are trying to figure out how to monetize their base. They are killing themselves in an attempt to figure out how to eek out as much money as possible as opposed to allowing the business to develop around their dominance. It is a crazy thing to watch.

    The Flash (2023)

    It was fun, but kind of a mess. CGI was terrible at nearly every level. Supergirl was just stupid. Cameos were funny, but ultimately worthless.

    The show already fucked up by changing Black Noir from the ultimate reason of Homelander's psychosis to a punchline.

    They forcibly changed the colors of the home screen icon to the bullshit rainbow flag at the start of June for "pride" month. Reading the reviews in the Play store were hilarious after that. They lost a lot of goodwill with the move and have tripled down on it.

    Star Wars general purpose movie stuff

    You posted this like any single person involved with Star Wars right now has a fucking clue how to make it work. If they wanted to make money, they should have hired huge Star Wars geeks to write and direct the movies. They should have kept the good parts of the EU (Mara Jade, Luke's founding...

    My brother in Christ, what Usenet provider are you using that changes its price? I've payed $40 a year for almost a decade for unlimited everything and 3000 days or more of retention. Price should not be a consideration for keeping big media on its toes.

    Diablo 4 / IV / IIII / Fore / Cope / Seethe

    No, you are right, women aren't gamers. Sure there are exceptions, but just look at Twitch or YouTube or any other collection that provides video evidence that males are the ones playing the most, grinding it out, and ultimately making all the real content. Women game on Candy Crush...

    Diablo 4 / IV / IIII / Fore / Cope / Seethe

    So is there anything in D4 like the bounty system from D3? That was one of the bright spots, in my opinion. Not having to lvl through the story every time was a real plus for repeat characters.

    Why? It is abundantly clear that monopolizing the entire screen to the detriment of the specific product in question leads to the worst possible outcome for almost everyone involved. Viewers hate it. Streamers hate it. The only people who like it are the shortsighted executives at both Twitch...

    Yup, I believe this is a better movie than the first even though I like the first a whole lot.
