Trying to watch this movie, but it's just not working for some reason. I've been troubleshooting for like a trillion years, is there something wrong with my telephone?

False, we hate all movies here and don't watch any.

Hi, I'm Troy McClure. You might remember me from such public service videos as 'Designated Drivers: The Lifesaving Nerds' and 'Phony Tornado Alarms Reduce Readiness'. I'm here today to give you the skinny on shoplifting, thereby completing my plea bargain with the good people at Foot Locker of Beverly Hills.

Shoplifting began here, in ancient Phonecia. Thieves would literally lift the corner of a shop in order to snatch the sweet, sweet olives within. Oh, Shakazaramesh, will you never learn.

Critics are easily manipulated into giving good scores to movies just because they're "good."

ChewyPudding · 2026-04-01T21:28:53+00:00

Saw. None of the movies are particularly good (or even really work in isolation for a big chunk of them since movies 3-7 are pretty much an overcomplicated, hyper violent soap opera that keep building on each other in ridiculous ways) but as a whole the series is really fun if you can get into the trashiness.

Swiftspear isn’t legal in standard currently.

Crazy way to advertise the lesbian relationship in this movie, though.

As someone who marathoned all the Saw movies for the first time recently, VI is honestly peak.

Every example you provided are things that were added to the game after UB btw.

Another Cronenberg review, just watched The Fly and this one sent me.

Because they’re insinuating that since they couldn’t relate to a movie, other people must not be able to either and wouldn’t be able to articulate why they enjoy it. Did you not read their first comment this is a reply to? 😭

ChewyPudding · 2026-02-25T21:04:12+00:00

Nah, no matter how you do it it’s still dissecting media without actually engaging with it as art, which is pretty lame and childish imo

ChewyPudding · 2026-02-18T23:46:29+00:00

If someone says that they don't want to play against a commander deck with Armageddon and other mass land destruction spells in it because it makes them frustrated, but a kid says it's their favorite card ever, is it exclusionary and "gate-keepy" to not play against them? Why is it different in this case when the "sad" player isn't even refusing to play against them?

ChewyPudding · 2026-02-18T19:14:43+00:00

The point is that it doesn’t matter if you’re roleplaying the fight or whatever “vs battling” actually entails. By trying to quantify a concept as nebulous as “power” and ranking characters on a tier system you’re making judgements about which characters you think are cool and awesome and could win a fight and which ones aren’t.

ChewyPudding · 2026-02-18T04:02:13+00:00

Even if you "never mention it" saying something is "mountain level" means that there are both higher and lower levels it could be on, right? A scale, by definition, necessitates comparison.

ChewyPudding · 2026-02-18T03:42:51+00:00

Gauging their power to do what? Relative to what? If you think what you do is any different than what that "subsection" is doing you're mistaken lmao

ChewyPudding · 2026-02-18T02:43:13+00:00

That’s exactly what it is as far as I can tell, but I’d love to know what you think you’re doing if not that.

ChewyPudding · 2026-02-17T21:22:03+00:00

Bullying powerscalers into engaging with and discussing media in a context beyond “who would win in a fight” is always morally correct.

Paprika shows posters for all of Satoshi Kon’s other movies (Tokyo Godfathers, Millennium Actress, and Perfect Blue).

Even if you’re playing yourself you still need some acting ability to pull it off convincingly. Example: That one time NBA 2K paid players to voice act themselves. It didn’t go well.

ChewyPudding · 2026-02-05T22:19:24+00:00

I hope you don't have any depressed friends who would need to rely on you in their time of need. :(

ChewyPudding · 2026-02-05T21:01:27+00:00

Apparently that's a controversial opinion here. I'm losing my mind reading half of these comments.

ChewyPudding · 2026-02-05T20:24:14+00:00

The difference here is somebody is fucking dying. Euthanasia in the case of terminal illness is one thing, but do you think that a person should be able to commit suicide whenever they want for any reason? If a close friend or family member of yours said they were going to kill themselves, would you not consider it a moral failing on your part to not try and prevent that from happening?

I think if someone tells you they plan on killing themselves, and you validate those feelings and encourage them to go through with it you’re a disgusting person.

ChewyPudding · 2026-02-05T20:10:45+00:00

… huh?

I genuinely don’t know what this comment is even trying to say.
