Sarcopenia posted:If he's this creepy and terrible to some dude because he didn't praise him back in a couple of hours imagine how creepy and scary has he been to all the ladies he's wanted to gently caress. I've seen a lot of "Nooo whaaat the insanely cool, trustworthy and talented Max Landis?" and I'm really confused because all I knew about him was that he is that really entitled nepotism baby who made me really uncomfortable in the BOTW episodes he was in. Have I missed what he has done or said to be revered as a cool, woke dude? People liked Wrestling isn't Wrestling & the Death & Return of Superman. Liking something makes it really easy for people to justify or downplay lovely people and actions.

Sarcopenia posted:But people are straight up surprised that this dude isn't MR. WOKE2017. Are people just projecting whatever onto the guy without ever actually having heard him talk? Is it the disarmingly stupid hair and dress sense? Is he such a huge dork that people can't imagine him being threatening in any way? I just figured he was just a dickhead that overreacted to things, not that he was a creep whose treatment of women was being covered up by his dad.

Visidan posted:wrestling with regret is great, any other wrestling critics? I've been getting into OSW lately, they put up a review of TNA Bound For Glory 17 about a week ago. They also uploaded a video for the TNA 2007 Christmas episode with the infamous Silent Night, Bloody Night match starring Abyss, Shark Boy, Black Reign (Goldust on a shitload of drugs and was really fat at the time) and Rellik (that's killer spelt backwards) which is among the most insulting matches that I've ever seen that wasn't a lovely comedy match. There's also the old staple of Brian & Vinny. edit: OSW TNA Christmas https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ljckpPdVpLs Bryan & Vinny covering the Silent Night, Bloody night match. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=opM6eyjIYH0 Testekill fucked around with this message at 13:40 on Dec 26, 2017 |

Falstaff posted:Also this. Comparatively, Light comes across as very sympathetic in the Netflix version, which imo misses the point. He's bullied, and he's egged on by Misa, and just so very reluctant to go too far using his powers, and L corners him so he has no choice but to lash out... Bleh. It's actually why I much prefer the Japanese live action versions of Death Note to the manga & anime. Besides the fact that it made Naomi Misora a key character in the first film, Light is somehow even more sociopathic and just sacrifices his girlfriends life just so he'd look sympathetic and believable when he went to the TaskForce asking to help take Kira down. It also cuts out the second half, which loving plods holy poo poo, and L ends up outsmarting Light by writing his own name in the Death Note so Light couldn't kill him with it. It cuts down on the melodrama and fixes the pacing so much.

The only reason why you would even consider filming in Aokigahara is if you're doing it it have an extremely candid talk about mental health and suicide and are using it as a somber talking point. That's literally the only reason I can think of a person wanting to film there.

Linear Zoetrope posted:Even then, getting real people in your shot is bad. Better to just film all the string leading into the woods. Putting the poor dead's faces in there is still something you probably shouldn't do. If you need the poignant death shots, stage it. Oh that poo poo is so hosed up. Keep the shots of him talking to the guide and some establishing shots before just cutting to another location where you can talk about it. They really should have cut any footage involving the suicide victim

Absurd Alhazred posted:Monday Jimquistion, and it's not even about loot boxes this time! Adelaide is the rear end in a top hat of Australia and that's coming from someone that lives in Brisbane aka the Florida of Australia. They've always been weirdly like this; they were incredibly conservative under Premier Thomas Playford and banned shitloads of books that were even slightly controversial from being sold in regular bookshops and they were the state pushing hardest against the introduction of an R rating for video games. I'd say that there's something in the water but their water is loving undrinkable.

Nuebot posted:I found it surprisingly hard to be an rear end in a top hat in The Walking Dead games just because having to explain why I shot someone in the face or stole something and having Clementine just be so dang disappointed in my choices worked better than anything Bioware or Bethesda had managed to do. I feel that was why Walking Dead season 1 was so effective; you're the everyman and you have a small child as your morality compass. Clem is executed so well as a character that you don't want to disappoint her or at least want to justify your actions to her. Meanwhile most Bioware games just have a 'this person likes you more/less' thing which guides your actions which just does not function well at all. It's why I laugh when some people say that KOTOR2 is poo poo, can you imagine Bioware trying to write a character with the nuance of Kreia?

Solitair posted:I recently got into a conversation with some IRL friends about Ready Player One, after I saw that another friend was looking forward to the RPO movie on his blog. I groused about some of the hilarious scenes I'd read excerpts of, and someone who read the book brought up that it's intentional that the narrator has this embarrassing inability to process the world without referencing pop culture that's an indictment of the world he lives in. I haven't read RPO myself, so I dunno if that's true or not. Given everything else I heard, I'm assuming that Cline is aware to some degree that there are problems with nerd pathology, but he's either unaware of just how much of a problem he's dealing with or he's too enamored of nerdy indulgence to commit to condemning it. Then there's Armada's existence, which has the exact same oversaturation of references RPO is without the themes of escapism and corporations and whatever else to provide a fig leaf of justification. It's 100% the latter. It's written with no self-awareness on display

Except there's no real variation. Everyone has the basic slashes and strong attack but then the 4 moves are just the same type of moves. Every Dynasty Warriors game (except 6 the last bad one) has the basic stun, launcher, knockback, etc moves but movesets still feel unique as some characters make it easier to combo between the various moves. Plus for some reason three of the four female Wei characters have whip based weapons and the other one is just using Sun Shang Xiang's chakrams. Whips are boring; Emeici, flutes, harps and claws that send wires everywhere actually make characters stand out. Testekill fucked around with this message at 01:23 on Feb 14, 2018 |

OSW released their most recent review which is incredibly about the porno that Sunny made. I'm not linking it but it's basically the most depressing thing that they've ever seen and she has just been on an awful downward spiral for about 17 years now. The saddest thing was that when she was inducted into the WWE hall of fame in 2011 and at the RAW 15th anniversary she looked really happy and healthy but she's basically aged 15 years since the HOF induction. They did announce their next story arc though which should be a fun ride; it's the endless car crash that was the Lex Express in the WWF.

I did get her onto Monster Factory, Hbomb and RedLetterMedia so that's a good thing.

It was just forgettably bad instead of being interestingly bad or entertainingly bad or even just plain awful. If a movie can just be described as bad by most normal people than don't waste any thoughts on it.
