honestly even if Telltale hadn't fall, they wouldn't have carry on given they crawled up their own rear end about Story games since TWD S1 became such a mega hit, to the point where they seem to retroactively claim it's their first big game despite Tales of Monkey Island and the Sam & Max series doing well.

Didn't Telltale also start a Bone series that never got finished? I think Sam & Max could be trusted to the Kingdom/West of Loathing Dudes, though I dunno if they'd do something like that.

Agreed, I was rooting for Isle of Dogs because I adore that movie, but Spider-verse was such a well-crafted, enjoyable film that I'm totally fine with it winning. Incredibles 2 did not deserve to coast by on the Pixar reputation.

And while I was HEAVILY rooting for Spiderman to win, the hate Incredibles 2 is getting is REALLY loving weird and kind of messed up. Like yeah I get it, Pixar and Disney ALWAYS win, Spiderman was INCREDIBLY loving good in every level, and we need a change, but GODDAMN.

Rirse posted:I own the disc for a while, but sounds like it not worth watching INcredibles 2. It’s not really bad, it just... Didn’t entirely live up to expectations after well over a decade. To be honest, it feels like they decided halfway through production that they were going to lay the seeds for a 3rd film, instead of just letting it be a continuation of the original.

Masaaki Yuasa's (Ping Pong, Devilman Crybaby, the life cycle episode of adventure time etc) latest film Night is Short, Walk on Girl is in cinemas and it is real good, and absolutely bonkers. I struggle to accurately explain what this film is about or why it is good, except to say that I really liked it and it is worth seeing if you want something you haven't seen before. It's trippy and weird, with the symbolic layer and the literal layer kind of swapping around and getting mixed up in a sort of magical realism kind of way. At one point it turns into an opera for an extended sequence. Also it's a spiritual sequel to and based on a book by the guy who wrote The Tatami Galaxy.

The Saddest Rhino posted:should i watch tatami galaxy before watching this? It's not necessary to. It's considered a spiritual sequel building on the storytelling style, but is it's own thing. There are some shared side characters, but it's more of an easter egg than something that contributes to the story. It might even be more enjoyable to go in blind and be completely surprised by it.

Basically, Incredibles 2 biggest problem is that it stretches out what should have been the first act of a proper sequel (re-legalizing supers) into the entire movie, so it suffers for retreading a lot of the same ground as the original.

Yeah, I can see this. The central conflict of the movie kind of ends up being a fake-out because one of the main characters is lying the whole time about wanting to legalize superheroes, so they rarely get into any of the thematic stuff about superheroes being good or bad for society. The only time they do it's actually 90% because of a personal grudge and not a really coherent reason. I can see a better movie where they start out by legalizing superheroes and then show the ramifications. It could've even paralleled the role of police in society, which I know is basically a mine field that probably would've angered everybody 10x more than the Rand stuff, but they already kind of hinted at it with the body cameras.

I liked it when the Screenslaver, a villain with no superpowers, just clocks Elastigirl in the face when he's running away.

One with black Spider-man and girl Spider-man and old washed up Spider-man and detective Spider-man and Porky Pig Spider-man and Japanese schoolgirl Spider-man, no less. That'd be some Uncle Nintendo tier crazy.

Lego Batman was also awesome. They were executive producers on Smallfoot also. And they directed & produced the pilot to Brooklyn-99 for some reason.
