    The Little Mermaid (2023)

    The Wiz was a total piece of shit. But I will agree with chuk here, it was also something else entirely. It was a complete reimagining. Like countless reimagining's of Romeo and Juliet in modern times. Shit like West Side Story. is anyone on earth going to bitch that West side story is not...

    The Diplomat - Netflix

    yep, my brother mentioned this. And you guys. on epi 5 so far. Pretty solid. Minor bit of girl power as noted. "bitchy" and shit. the main character not taking part in that crap though. men are all written with it in mind though blatantly. Does a good job totally ignoring actual real...

    Comic Books

    ooph. my only interactions with Rob, were hanging out in a Comic book coloring pro forum, and one of the colorists bitching there about getting shafted over royalties/pay or something for work they had done for Rob 15 years prior back in the Image days. And Rob parachuting in, and threatening...

    got around to Encanto. What a bizarre movie. No conflict at all. songs were hit or miss. a couple ok. even those could have used more time on the burner. boo hoo, I'm not special, the rest of my family is. Boo hoo, I'm special and thats stressful. Boohoo, Im special and thats stressful...

    Warhammer 40k Space Marine 2

    yeah, the Eldar are "helping". But "helping" might mean diverting a Tyranid swarm to a human world, to devour it to piss off the humans, so they send space marines to kill the swarm, and along the way, also get attacked by orcs, which were also tricked into attacking the humans, which diverts...

    Lord of the Rings: Gollum

    some of those are fairly known studios. cyanide did a bunch of cycling games. bloodbowl 1,2 and 3. aarklash:legacy, styx:shards of darkness, call of cthulu amoung others.. BB3 is also known as a trainwreck. (post Nacon) Wiki mentions their primary publisher Focus Home Interactive tried to...

    The Little Mermaid (2023)

    haha. yeah American Leftists having to do mental gymnastics to pretend like the US isn't the LEAST racist country on Earth is always lulz. They just don't live in reality. Their entire world view is a fiction created by movies, tv and video games.

    Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom

    seeing that open world discussion.. Zelda clearly did influence console open worlds. like Dragon warrior influenced rpgs. but claiming DW invented rpgs would be a really stupid thing to say. Every rpg can be traced back to 3 games though. Rogue, Ultima and Wizardry. this was a great...

    Hopefully the single-player campaign is still decent. I've got the remastered version of NWN for PS4, and the Gold version of original NWN2 on PC. they are decent. but yeah, its the extra stuff that makes NwN legendary. gold comes with mask of the betrayer? mask of the betrayer is also...

    I'd do them in chronological order. planescape 1999, Icewind dale 2000, NWN 2002. Or did you mean the original Neverwinter Nights? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Neverwinter_Nights_(1991_video_game) 2002 nwn is a jump to 3d though. so yeah, get those prior games done first. It possibly might...

    ha thats funny. As ultimately, like pretty much every sandbox game, it lacks an endgame or finale.

    Writers Guild Strike 2023

    Its not really the "monotonous bullshit" jobs. Its the "on the job" training jobs. This is a major deal in creative fields. Art field is hit hard. and we even have some examples from the past to look back at. Comic book inking. Comic books are often done in production line...

    Redfall (Vampires, Open World Co-Op Shooter)

    Another bizarre/bad design choice. 3 weapons at once... except its actually 40 in your backpack. why do I need to pause the game, fish through my backpack to equip other guns, when I run out of ammo for the "main" three? or, staking vamps, who then pop for aoe blood mist damage..

    Redfall (Vampires, Open World Co-Op Shooter)

    there is a fun game buried in this sadly. There is some Forspoken diversity going on here, I think Nirgon is noting. Its not as in your face as Forspoken or saints row, but its still there. US coast guard lady who is so very Puerto Rican. she tells you nonstop. "telekinetic threat with the...

    Roald Dahl's The Witches (2020)

    Watching this now.... why the fuck did they shift it from Norway and England in the 80's, to New orleans USA with a black kid in the 60's? then purposely inject racism? "lets go to the rich white people hotel, witches only attack poor kids." all black employees who are shocked at black grandma...

    Looks pretty fake. Triton getting around is pretty lulz. Also, something about that is so icky. the, is it clothing, is it skin? aspect. furries/scalies... man I don't get that shit at all. its very offputting. 100% something that only works as a cartoon.
