Not sure if any of you have worked on music videos before, but this is perfect in every way, and also explains how terrible it is to work on these videos.

I'm rewatching all of Indiana jones and man it would be cool to take one of those PanAm water jets he takes from San Fran harbor at the beginning of Raiders. Too bad those days are long gone.

Also these movies are immensely entertaining. I'm curious as to how many of these tropes It created vs just used effectively.

The second season ends by tying all that up so the season cliffhanger isn't actually a problem if you're watching after the fact. The real problem is much like Twin Peaks once they solved the case the writers just came up with bullshit to fill out the remaining season (s)

3rd season was decent and worth watching but it got so relentlessly dark in the 4th it wasn't fun. Holder made no jokes anymore cause he was depressed and that's like the only thing that was a bit of relief in the first couple seasons.

I finally got around to beating The Last of Us and I somehow enjoyed it even more than I was expecting to. I really like the ending, which is weird because it's almost identical to one of my least favorite game endings, it's just LoU actually spends the entire game leading up to it's ending so it actually works.

Hell yeah! I want to play it again now

Speaking of late night, Maher apparently had Milo Yiannopoulus on and humored the gently caress out of him and he also had Larry Wilmore on that show, who was not having any of that bullshit and told Yiannopoulus to go gently caress himself to his face

Yeha I just watched that. Good for Larry, and gently caress Milo.

I'm playing Horizon: Zero Dawn and the only puzzles in the game are these knobs you have to turn. They repeat this puzzle four or five times and each time the solution (turn knob right) is literally printed in glowing neon text right next to the puzzle. Why would you even bother
