I feel like the already toxic discourse around this game is going to get worse. People just expect too much. They want endless meaningful content right out the gate, perfect balance, and post-launch support that doesn’t have a whiff of monetization on it. If Blizzard fails to deliver slightly on any of these people are going to act like Diablo 4 killed their dog and fucked their wife.

Movies: In Bruges Auf Der Anderen Seite (The Edge Of Heaven) Synecdoche, New York Inside Llewyn Davis Taxi Driver Your Name TV Shows: Twin Peaks Dark The Sopranos Girls Succession (recency bias) Most of these are pretty self-explanatory, but I'll provide a little clarity about the mostly unknown or controversial inclusions. Auf Der Anderen Seite is a German-language movie primarily about Turkish immigrants. It's the most beautifully executed hyperlink movie I've ever seen. After I finished it the first time I finished it I stared at my reflection in the mirror for like ten minutes feeling chills run up and down my neck. Synechdoche, New York. Charlie Kaufman's (writer of Eternal Sunshine, Being John Malkovich) first shot at directing. It's expansive and weird. All of Kaufman's movies are kind of about everything, but this one is the most about everything of all of his movies. Philip Seymore Hoffman is great in it too. Your Name. Made me cry a lot. Girls. A completely misunderstood masterpiece. I don't understand how people don't understand that this is a satire. It gave us Adam Driver, and if you hate Lena Dunham just know that this show hates her more. I think of out-and-out comedies as being incomparable from dramas so basically exclude them from my lists because they generally don't make me feel as strongly, even though I probably consume more comedy than anything.

General Gaming Ok...the dust has settled. Which is better?
Moa replied to best3444's topic in The Spawn Point
MGSV I feel like the emergent clown show gameplay in MGSV came out much more organically. In ToTK you can be a mad scientist, but the game hasn't really presented many situations where the mad scientist route is actually beneficial. MGSV maybe has less depth but I often felt like the wacky prank playstyle was actually the optimal way to solve most problems. -

This show's continued efforts to gaslight me into thinking that it wasn't a comedy are fascinating but also infuriating. The time skip is just ridiculous. I like how the show went from caricaturing how out of touch Hollywood is to portraying the midwest as a mixture of dirt, Xanax, god, Live Laugh Love pillows, and child abuse. This show is like a car crash I can't look away from. I hope the finale is a musical about how enjoying fictional portrayals of violence is baaaaad.

Nintendo Now it’s out, what do you want from the Zelda series moving forward?
Moa replied to gamer.tv's topic in The Spawn Point
Nintendo to abandon their general strategy, make a $900 behemoth console that's twice the size of a PS5, sounds like a jet engine, and renders photorealistic femboy link at 144 fps. -
I was initially underwhelmed by RAM because it wasn't Discovery, but as a final album it's perfect. They'd refined their style to the point that simply continuing to make their brand of techno wasn't going to cut it. RAM is the perfect coda for their run. It's an appendix of their influences, the history of their genre, collaborations with their contemporaries, and a few final songs in their classic style. Contact still gives me chills and Touch has to be my most-listened Daft Punk song. I'd welcome a real comeback, but if that never happens RAM is a fantastic self-erected monument to their career.

I’m no expert on UK racism, I just thought the Poland thing was weird. -

It's maybe a huge stretch but anti-Polish sentiment is pretty big in the sphere of UK politics that Rupert probably represents. Upon meeting Jade he immediately and uncomfortably identifies her as Polish, and his coldness towards her might just be xenophobia.
