I feel like he hasn't done anything really stupid in a few days and that has me very concerned. Well, he just told Bob Iger and all the advertisers pulling their campaigns to go f*** themselves very publicly on stage at a New York Times summit with both Iger and his useless CEO Linda in the audience. That counts for something!

Super Mario RPG had like three times the first week physical sales in Japan that Origami King did, 301,334 compared to 109,092. To be fair, Origami King came out at the height of COVID-19. It’s still a successful launch but it’s not a fair comparison.

This is the Scott Pilgrim show I didn't know I needed, but am thrilled that I got. Was damn near perfect in the story it told, and the cast all coming back only added to the emotion They left the door open for a second season and I will accept it gladly if it happens. The door is open but supposedly there are no plans to walk through it; apparently it’s just a joke at Marvel’s expense.

I'm surprised Apple pulled advertising but didn't pull them from the App Store and kill the website for good tbh.

We're about to find out what the effect of losing Dan Houser was to Rockstar. There's a chance he worked a bit on this game before leaving the company, but he wouldn't have had a part in development for at least four years by now.

That Boogie documentary really helps paint him in a new light. Sheesh. And he completely signed off on it, which is the crazy thing.

For anybody interested in this series, I would advise watching the movie first. Spoilers- if you have not seen the series but have seen the movie, do not click on this: {Spoiler}{Spoiler}{Spoiler}{Spoiler}I absolutely loved the twist that this was a Ramona Flowers centric series with very little of Scott. I had the first episode on in the background and had to go back to it when the second episode opens with his funeral because I hadn't realized he was beat. A legitimately great fake-out that makes the anime differentiated from the movie and the graphic novel.
My only real critique is not a whole lot of Envy, but that's to be expected with Brie Larson being such a mega star with Marvel.

Ironically MMFA would absolutely love the lawsuit that will be quietly pulled a few months from now, because then we get discovery out there from the Musk side.
It really is remarkable how he keeps forgetting that discovery, like, exists.

Not a fit imo. I know it’s unpoular opinion, but I just can’t see him appearing on RAW in a non-smark city and fitting into WWE’s style The thing that sets Okada apart from his peers in NJPW is his adaptability. The guy can do any style to fit whoever he's facing and get the best possible match out of them. It's why he is so great as a champion, as he can still get a great match out of anybody, from Tanahashi to Bad Luck Fale. As long as he doesn't noticeably go down a gear like Nakamura did going to WWE, he'll be fine.

Way, way, waaaay too happy and preppy. It’s also pretty incredible how Pratt keeps getting these VA jobs in spite of being so lackluster at them.

I think it's true that Musk is also a meme, but I don't think he's a meme in the way he thinks he is and wants to be. Oh, he knows people are laughing at him. That’s why this bot exists- he’s so desperate for anybody to like and praise him. The man has no self confidence, and that’s the funniest part of him.

This sure is some sick shit isn't it? Trying to wait on the actors to basically go "Yes, make our jobs potentially redundant in 10 years". Not because AI is essential to them making money, no no no. Not because the actors are asking so much that they can't turn any profit. Quite the contrary, actually- studios will still make a ridiculous amount of money. No, because AI might drive costs down lower and the share price higher.
It's not a case of not having enough money, it's a case of not having all of the money. There are dinosaurs at the top driving this in part, but it's also a case of tech bros running amok to get the high score. It's the same thing we're seeing in the Musk thread, where Enron wasn't happy just having Twitter and instead is pushing for this bizarre WeChat app centralization. Most people in America can't even agree if mustard should be on their hot dogs, let alone what app to use for what function.

It's definitely a technical marvel, though as a song I think it's a bit meandering and aimless. I think it’s got all the makings of a great Beatles track, but it feels a little half baked and thrown together. Which makes a bit of sense, considering this is a song that took 45 years to make and with half the band being represented by decades old recordings.

The wrong lesson will be learned from this movie- there's an appetite for more FNAF movies. In reality, this movie proves that you can do a same day release with a streaming platform like Peacock and still make bank at the box office as long as you have an interesting, well marketed setup.

It really is incredible how Nintendo just goes out of its way to ruin any good will the company generates. We've been gushing in here over Wonder and the remakes of both Mario RPG and TTYD, now it all feels for naught.

The clip of her trying to work the camera in the PC by shitting on Sammy Guevara, who regardless of your thoughts on him is easily like 50 times the worker Lacey ever was, tells you all you need to know.

At this point after a year just cancel the damn show. Cancel it and start “The Monthly Show with Jon Stewart”, a one hour show that I think Stewart would be fine with schedule wise.
