Evergreen tweet.

As we speak, there's some Disney executive diving Scrooge McDuck style into a mountain of cocaine because he wrote "remake our movies, but with people this time" on a whiteboard.

Hey guess what, the Fallout lore has never made any sense at all. Fallout 4 occurs over 200 years after the war, yet no one has figured out how to cut a standard 2x4 and everyone is still living in hovels. Never mind that humanity went from horses and buggies to landing on the moon in 200 years without having any of the knowledge in advance.

Being signal boosted by a disingenuous hate mob that doesn't actually give one flying fuck about the content of the tweets absolutely means they caved to racist political agendas. Not a single one of that dipshit's followers actually cared a even a tiny bit about the content of those tweets at all. Those tweets had been around for ages, and if you think a company like Disney wasn't aware of them in advance and decided to roll with Gunn anyway, you're delusional.

So... it’s like every Bethesda Fallout game?

No, he isn't. Being successful doesn't mean you're smart, let alone a genius. It's one of these weird seemingly uniquely american myths, the notion that the super rich are incredible at what they do. Meanwhile, ask your average worker if they think they're boss is smarter than them and they'll scoff. The world is full of people walking around telling everyone their boss is a moron who has no idea how anything works, yet when you look outside of your own experience you assume that the people in charge got there through intelligence and hard work. Many super rich people, probably most super rich people, get there through a blinding streak of luck they managed to ride and not fall off. Change one or two parts of Trump's background, and he's working at his uncle's tire shop catcalling at women who walk by. He is not some fundamentally brilliant person or some generational talent. He was born at the right place, at the right time, and to the right people and that's it.

It's impossible for Star Wars to "live up to its potential" because what the fuck does that even mean these days? Star Wars has become so ingrained to some people's entire sense of being, and there are so many of them with different interests, that you can't make a movie that pleases all of them. Each one of them sees themselves as "the true fan" that needs to have their dick sucked for liking a movie a whole lot.

I wonder if Randy is so impressed by the sleight of hand that he'll just let it slide.

God, in such a garbage week, readintg through twitter reactions to this news has been so satisfying. The people going on about how they will continue their boycott...

Sure glad we let this chode wave his dick across the universe by letting him launch his car into space forever.

Hyperbole. People realize in very broad strokes what you'll be doing in general, but there's so much wiggle room in "third person stealth action" that it could mean Phantom Pain or it could mean Hitman. Knowing the most broad of strokes isn't enough to get interested for me.

People aren't confused about the very basic notion of what you'll be doing in this game, although being weird and coy about it certainly isn't doing Kojima any favors. People are more confused about what in the blue hell any of this is about and in a larger sense why they should care. I don't need to see a bunch of weird outlandish shit to get interested in a game, I need to see why I want to actually get this in my hands as opposed to watching a supercut on youtube and saving $60. The special Kojima sauce is something that makes great gameplay even better, it's not enough to slog through a mediocre game for, so I need to see where the rubber meets the road on this before I'm going to commit, and showing my a bunch of barely related mind fuckery aint gonna do it.

I mean how many times do you press the button that electrocutes you before you stop? Even rats figure that out quickly.

People keep saying that, and I've been waiting for this turn for so long that at this point I'm confident that it's just not going to happen. I mean we've got this dipshit who almost certainly will make it to the Supreme Court, Roy Moore who came within a hair's breadth of becoming a senator when he has a known history of chasing teenage girls, and a man with a long well documented history of being a piece of shit is the god damned president.

Look, it's pretty clear that until we can round up every rapist and person guilty of sexual assault and launch them into the sun that it's just plain hypocrisy to NOT elect one to the Supreme Court. Duh.

I hope they bring the kid to his sentencing so just he can be flossing in the background.

Kal El is from Kansas in the same way that Arnold Schwarzenegger is from California. Also everyone in DBZ is a fucking moron, so that tracks.

I appeal to the... ... ah fuck

Two things here. One, let's not pretend there isn't a whole rash of other admitted as holes without an entire political party behind them making a resurgence of late. Two, let's not pretend the GOP doesn't have a literal platoon of eager, young chodes that would slit their mother's throat to be a supreme court justice who haven't probably raped someone. It would take them minutes to replace Kavanagh with the next eager lickspittle Democrats couldn't pin this to, and yet they won't.

The Joker has been dissected, examined, re-imagined, re-invented, and portrayed so many times I could not possibly give less of a fuck about him as a character anymore.

When, not if, this guy gets on the bench, I move that when anyone on the CEB makes some statement to the effect that sexual assault accusations "ruin your life" they be perma'ed.

Well that's one way to get Mexico to pay for the wall...

God, I remember when a certain banned user argued on the old board that Superman had ALWAYS been a christ figure since the day he was created... Sometimes I miss not having the old archives and sometimes I think it's for the best.
