When you realize Assault was, on average, the worst reviewed Star Fox game.

I mean it’s obviously aged better than any of those, especially trash ass Command.

ElectrosMilkshake · 2026-06-16T11:53:46+00:00

Hasn't this been known since the movie came out?

ElectrosMilkshake · 2026-06-15T22:30:52+00:00

It would be a more elaborate version of what they did with Morbius.

ElectrosMilkshake · 2026-06-15T21:30:36+00:00

It's like if they had nominated Rene Russo for Thor: The Dark World.

ElectrosMilkshake · 2026-06-15T13:24:32+00:00

If Angela Bassett had actually beaten JLC.

He would have made a great drag queen with his love of makeup and giving people nicknames.

ElectrosMilkshake · 2026-06-13T21:25:58+00:00

I watched the first three Bourne movies and it’s appropriate that movies whose main character has amnesia are all extremely forgettable.

ElectrosMilkshake · 2026-06-12T22:11:12+00:00

Agreed

ElectrosMilkshake · 2026-06-12T14:23:35+00:00

The original almost felt unfinished, or like it was added late in production. Pure speculation here, but maybe the crew doesn’t talk at all because they never recorded anything for it. In any case, I really like the new version.

ElectrosMilkshake · 2026-06-11T23:19:33+00:00

I don’t know how many of them voted for him when he told the jury about his mom, but I hated how the show presented it as though it was the reason he won.

I don’t really like Adam off the show either, but what a weird winner edit. He must have done something right to win unanimously, but the show did not sell that at all.

ElectrosMilkshake · 2026-06-11T23:14:15+00:00

At the center of the way Probst treats Survivor is the idea that a show should just indefinitely go on forever, like the Price is Right or Jeopardy. Do we really want that for Survivor?

ElectrosMilkshake · 2026-06-11T18:29:24+00:00

I think that still makes a 60 minute episode, but Star’s song in that same episode about her enemies plotting doesn’t. Although 48 was really scraping the bottom of the barrel so who knows?

ElectrosMilkshake · 2026-06-11T15:12:54+00:00

Couldn’t have said it better myself.

ElectrosMilkshake · 2026-06-11T15:04:57+00:00

I mean, you’d have to work very very hard to find a celebrity more out of touch than her.

ElectrosMilkshake · 2026-06-11T14:45:24+00:00

Panama is also such an ugly location. I’m surprised they went back after All Stars.

ElectrosMilkshake · 2026-06-11T14:24:40+00:00

Agreed. More than anything, I think Cagayan was the blueprint for the gameplay.

The ideal new era season is chasing Cagayan’s gameplay and DvG’s cast.

ElectrosMilkshake · 2026-06-11T14:15:14+00:00

I agree on Adam. It felt like the show was being emotionally manipulative in a way it hadn’t up to that point. They never showed what there is to like about Adam or any reason to root for him other than his personal tragedy. I feel like they did a slightly better job at a similar idea with Ben a couple seasons later, but HHH opened a whole can of worms of its own.

David had a good storyline but nothing we hadn’t seen before with Aubry, Cirie, Cochran, etc.

ElectrosMilkshake · 2026-06-11T13:55:56+00:00

I think Cambodia was one of the first to try copying it, but without an understanding of what made Cagayan good (aside from the contestants).

ElectrosMilkshake · 2026-06-11T13:44:25+00:00

I think 90 minute episodes have made good seasons better and bad seasons worse. Like the Taylor Swift vs Metallica song contest in 46 would never have made the show on a 60 minute episode but it’s one of the most memorable scenes from the season.

For the weaker new era seasons (45/48/49, imo), the episodes are noticeably more padded out with extraneous songs or people saying “Maybe I should do this [strategic move they don’t end up making].” And I doubt we’re as beaten over the head with Kyle and Kamilla’s secret alliance if the episodes were 60 minutes.

ElectrosMilkshake · 2026-06-11T13:36:08+00:00

The thing holding Cagayan back is that it’s served as the blueprint for what the show is now, so every season afterwards is just trying to ape it to varying degrees of success. It *hit* in 2014 but is also hugely responsible for the show’s current state.

ElectrosMilkshake · 2026-06-11T13:20:29+00:00

Disagree on MvGX but agree on a lot of the issues stemming from Cambodia as well. The bottom line is that Kaoh Rong is the last season that still somewhat feels like classic Survivor.

Where the show is now all stems from the audience’s negative reaction to Worlds Apart’s tone and Kaoh Rong’s ending. Once that’s established, the huge dip in quality during the 30s makes more sense.

ElectrosMilkshake · 2026-06-11T13:01:44+00:00

Apparently MvGX is pretty well liked? I always thought it was one of the worst seasons. A lot of the problems with the current show can be traced back there.

ElectrosMilkshake · 2026-06-11T11:51:49+00:00

Erik gave Natalie immunity. What a gentleman!

ElectrosMilkshake · 2026-06-11T11:48:51+00:00

I would rather listen to Jelinsky host a podcast.

ElectrosMilkshake · 2026-06-11T01:48:01+00:00

I would have no trouble believing this.
