This is a polarizing film. A bit like a live action cartoon.

Did you think The Martian was similarly problematic?

The Sadness is another Korean movie which is fucked up beyond belief

What generation are you btw? I was horrified to discover that a lot of zoomers hate Bill Murray’s comedy/acting so wonder if it’s an age thing.

I hate 20th Century Classic that has been so impactful on film making that it suffers from the Seinfeld effect. Every aspect that it pioneered is just so cliched now in retrospect - how dumb were people back then to have been entertained by something pop culture has completely imbibed over the past XX years.

I found the special effects to be laughable; especially the practical ones. How could you watch anything made before CGI matured to a decent level?

Don’t even get me started on the actors. None of them went method and abused their fellow cast and crew in the name of art. Additionally the script did not past the Bechdel test which completely ruined any sense of realism that the characters might have been attempting to portray.

20th Century Classic is just one example. There are hundreds of films that don’t even have colour cinematography. Pretentious people try to tell us black and white cinematography is “more dreamlike”, pul-lease! Why would you want to watch something that doesn’t look like real life? You might as well be reading a novel at that point - and the whole point of movies is to completely replace novels so we can consume stories more efficiently.

Don’t @ me on any of this. Just hop on your penny farthing bicycle and ride off into the sunset to your hipster neigbourhood.

Also effects last for nearly a day

It’s an incredibly short read, like ~50 pages. You could read it in one sitting quite easily.

I’ve got it downloading now. Love Obsidian games.

Bald man in a suit sips cocktail while sunshine glares off his scalp Name’s Bezos, Jeff Bezos.

Anora was a cracking film. Rooting for it to win best picture.

Hell yes! I love the old 2D Shinobi games. I had the 3D one on PS2 as a kid as well but it kicked my arse.

We call those “party bags” in the UK and they are exclusive to children’s parties

I felt the exact opposite, OUATIH held my attention the whole time while Hateful Eight was a bit of a slog. I think I need to re-watch Hateful Eight though because I’ve been on a bit of a spaghetti western binge recently.

Game over, man

I am not a big fan of LLMs but don’t see a problem with this (or the last confected outrage about Late Night With The Devil). Banning AI in movies is going to be like attempting to put a genie back in its bottle since there are so many potential applications. Maybe indie film makers can advetise their movies as Not AI so that people who are bothered by it can seek those out.

It’s not Rare’s finest hour but still seems harsh to the original devs. I believe this happened with the recent Metroid Prime remaster too.

Is there any strategy for this level apart from kiting the enemies into your line of sight while you are shielded from the centre cube? Maybe the WAD could be tweaked. Cool project though!

Got 5 days left to finish Indiana Jones before the GamePass subscription times out.

Balatro is my current go-to game. Not sure if it is patient gamer material since it came out relatively recently but it is cheap and on all platforms. Poker themed maths game.
