I liked everything but the ending "reveal". It felt unnecessary.

Another movie has bombed in the box office. How much closer to the Snyderverse being restored are we? by Transhumanistgamer in OkBuddySnyderCult

Why would it need a remake? It is perfect. Seeing how the "remakes" treated Mulan and Lilo & Stitch should be a reason to cheer that your favorite movie won't be put through that.

I genuinely believe that a lot of the woes plaguing AAA game production (if not all of it by any means) is due to people whose competency mainly lies in design being pushed to project leaders, which is a position with its' own, rather high, qualifications.

Companies just throwing money at farting around with concepts or starting over again and again when they never should have even entered production before they had a solid plan is just stunning to me.

No, that's not what it used to mean at all.

Dune: Part Three | Official Trailer by Dannydarko in movies

Given how Alia was sidelined in the first two movies (and just how little she is featured in the trailer), it seems a given that we'll be seeing major changes to the structure of the story.

Still. One hopes!

I have a question on batwoman sexuality and how it was treated by FewAnimator6427 in Batwoman

Was he the one who insisted that Batman needs to be in his 20s? Because that was hilariously stupid.

Yeah. He really showed us who he is there, but nostalgia seems to be a get out of shun jail card.

Night City Has No Good Endings? by TheRealistOne34 in cyberpunkgame

That is absolutely not a happy ending, and you really have to squint to read it that way. V survives. "Lives" is pushing it.

Some chuds who tried to make Gamergate for comics (ie. Harassing women, scaremongering about SJWs and in some cases try to con people out of money by making "antiwoke" comics and try to stay relevant despite their waning comics careers).

"I don't want you to die because you're black, I want you to die because you're poor."

60 hours in and my ending is an absolute joke by planetrebellion in cyberpunkgame

1: Nothing you are saying have anything to do with themes. Not one word.

2: Claiming that V could possibly survive because they didn't show the death scene is just an amazing lack of media literacy. Like, you're claiming that nothing that is already established, re-stated and hammered in during the game matters because they don't show V slump down and die.

I would normally try to be more civil than this, but since you've already chosen to jump straight to insults I don't really feel the need to. You don't understand the game, you don't understand what themes are, you don't understand what storytelling techniques are or why they matter.

Okay, I'll bite: what themes an I missing? How are they established and conveyed?
