Thread with all my media reviews:

So one of the only countries giving Silksong mixed reviews is China and it seems to be primarily because of a weak localization (apparently it uses a lot of pretentious sounding Classical Chinese) @beijingpalmer.bsky.social , any insight here?

New Amazing Digital Circus episode. That final conversation was just a sledgehammer to the feels. Felt very real. Amazing writing

@ppdppl.com loool

Typical clueless Hollywood studio pushing for characters nobody cares about smh No one's gonna care for a kiddie film spin-off, Sony, give us Oscar worthy content for adults like Morbius 2: The Morbing, Madame Web vs Kraven, and 10 seasons of the El Muerto streaming show. You know, REAL CINEMA

This is the ending that was used in Spain for almost twenty years, before it was replaced by another one. It is still broadcast occasionally in reruns. (yes, this is the best video I found in a quick search lol) youtu.be/q87Fkp9DSyc?...

Garth Ennis when I force him to read that comic, colorized

Many people are saying this.

All the sins of Wade–Giles romanization, rendering 北京 as "Peking" and all, are forgiven for setting up this joke.

this video is gonna make me throw up

The Wild Robot is a great family movie and is now on Netflix

Pains me to say this for how much I loved the game, but Clair Obscur's ending is genuinely bad in a way that sabotages the game's previous strengths. Not a matter of whether it's "sad", it's that its framing encourages players not to care about 80% of what preceded it...I ended up not caring at all

I just want Nintendo to do something this weird and bold with Zelda again one day

Lolsob that there are like 6 ports of SMT1 in Japanese but the only one in English was a discontinued IOS port But hey, another trillion dollars to Hashino Persona remakes!

The more I think about it, the more I agree, A Hat In Time really is chibi-fied Doctor Who

Simply one of the best openings (anime or otherwise) ever made. Rose of Versailles had it all!

Following a recent discussion on Doctor Who's recent story decisions: It's ok to enjoy slop. I've done it myself. Everyone does it sometimes. Just don't try to pretend it's something better than it is, orlash out at the people who point it out. enjoyable =/= good

I like the little sound his hooves make

As much as I enjoyed TFA then, it's the original sin. As a reaction to (fair, to an extent) backlash to the prequels' often clumsy worlbuilding dialogue, TFA opted for having no worldbuilding at all that didn't reflect the conditions of the original trilogy(ie: big empire vs small rebels on the run)

Celeste dos Cravos An illustration commemorating the Carnation Revolution that took place in Portugal on the 25th of April of 1974, and the woman, Celeste Caeiro, who gave the revolution its name with a simple gesture :) 25 de Abril Sempre, Fascismo nunca mais! ✊

Happy liberation day to Portugal and Italy! 🌹🌹

Sinners (9/10) Crime drama, period piece,horror movie, musical, it meshes so many different genres into one impressively coherent, thematically rich whole. All aspects (cinematography, acting, writing...) are masterful, but the one that takes the cake is the OST which I've been listening to non-stop

The existence of Yuri Lowenthal implies the existence of a Yaoi Lowenthal

Playing Shin Megami Tensei II, look who showed up!

Resident Evil Remake (8/10) Now for also Capcom, but good. My first RE title, glad I finally gave it a chance. Surprised how much of a puzzle/adventure game it actually is, as opposed to an action game. "Dated" mechanics (limited saves, tank controls) work for the atmosphere of dread very well.

Devil May Cry (5/10) Funny this review right after Devilman's. A story about a human/devil hybrid vs a sympathetic antagonist in a conflict between species whose goals are tragically incompatible, full of brilliant social/political commentary on the worst of human nature; the other is Devil May Cry

Saw Devil May Cry. Look... maybe a game about a goofy edgelord chaining sick combos on hordes of evil demons wasn't the best foundation for a story about "both sides of the War on Terror were bad" Cuz it ends up with confused metaphors like "Muslims are demons,it's cool to k*ll them to Limp Bizkit"

☝️Errrrm I'm achually Raidou Kuzunoha The 14th🤓🤓🤓

Fuck it, I'm pre-ordering. Inshallah we will live to see Raidou 3. WE'RE ALL GONNA MAKE IT!!!

Soulless Vs. Soulless

Raidou bros we are so back

this is a really lovely remembrance from @marawilson.bsky.social www.vulture.com/article/mara...

if you see this, quote with a game with a 10/10 soundtrack The entirety of both Darkest Dungeon OSTs is goated, but Chatwood particularly cooked with the Color of Madness dlc one. Otherworldly terror never sounded this good

Finished reading Parasite Eve. Really effective slow burn medical drama that turns into all out sci-fi horror in the final act. "what if the mitochondria cells responsible for energy production and mobility in animal lifeforms like humans suddenly became sentient, and also really, really horny?"
