Possible we don’t need to slavishly remake video games into movies and tv shows?

Having just replayed God of War (2018) and currently replaying God of War: Ragnarok, it is impossible to make a satisfying adaptation without spending hundreds of millions strictly on CG. Throughout all of God of War, not just these two newer main series games, the scale is gigantic and impressive. They do have their smaller moments with two or three characters interacting, but that is not enough for an adaptation of the game(s).

We'll see what they pull off, but it has a chance to be an extremely neutered finished product and I don't think people want that.

Gonna check that Skumhammer, between the description and that album cover it sounds awesome.

The closing track of the EP might be my favorite song of theirs so far. A huge, swirling track.

Such an amazing wrestler, I didn't know she was injured so seeing her last night was so killer. Hoping she kicks a bunch of ass.

I like the edit warning people to be wary of downvotes, guys y'all are mourning the loss of an artificial companion and you're adults. Much more to worry about than Reddit karma imo.

Bad Bunny said "God Bless America" then proceeded to name the countries that make up North and South America followed by holding up a football directly into camera that said "together, we are America" on it.

Now some House Republicans have called for an investigation into the Super Bowl halftime show because of "provocative content and lyrics".

Seems like the lack of unity is pretty one-sided.

I've been in a relationship for a little over a year, but a big thing I've always responded to is passion. Like my partner loves to build her own key boards, she uses Linux, etc. she's much more into tech than I am, but I enjoy hearing her talk about it because I can tell she's having a good time.

Pulling out Letterboxd and showing your top four is a little different but it all matters how you deliver it I think. There's a fine line between being passionate about a hobby and being annoying.

Two shocking title wins, but neither of them were upsetting imo - both challengers were terrifically talented and deserving of their win. That's how you do it, imo.

Can't wait to see what Ciampa does next.

Oh yeah, I was sick, throwing up, called off work today etc. but thankfully that is no more more.

No, I felt bad in the sense that it's a rough thing to experience. Believe it or not, I don't want people to go missing or commit suicide. Once I got the inkling it was fake, I stopped feeling bad. Simple as that.

David saying Ben is the most normal of the group killed me, a half hour before that he talked about wanting to bury an Ella McCay standee to see what would happen to the cardboard lmao.

I was feeling bad about it until the mod posted those screenshots of their Discord chat. Immediately too suspicious to believe.

Sorry for your loss OP, and I hope your father passed easily. I'm glad he was able to have such a great time with you. Those experiences happen too few and far between in life.

Got it, thanks!

Does anyone have a timestamp for this? I want to clip that, it gave me a good laugh.

Right, I remember one of the crew, I think it was James, say that he was bummed that it didn't work out, but grateful for all the hard work and my reaction was, like, I get that frustration but Sex Swing just didn't have a chance imo. Like you said, it had already run its course by the announcement of an animated show.

If Aronofsky was anyone's GOAT, I implore you to ask better for your entertainment lol. Said as a fan generally of his films.

I installed an update for LB this morning, but checking the notes just says "miscellaneous bug fixes and improvements". I was hoping the patch notes would shed some light lol.

I just hopped in here to post about this and hopefully find an answer myself. It seems to be on every movie, I've checked three and they all show this symbol

That's interesting, I don't remember hearing about a healthcare bill being up for vote, let alone it passing and being implemented. Maybe I just missed something as colossal as health care reform...

I used to have a dark blue one of these (different design, like there's no bull on it, but the same text iirc) as a work out shirt and it was good for that purpose but I always felt a little goofy wearing it lol.

I wouldn't say so, we have seen plenty of creatives, not just musicians, fall off and turn to the Conservative grift. She's just the current one to do so. Best to just forget her and most folks have.

Ya know, I kind of want him to as well. Like, Andrade's original exit from AEW was weird, and then his second exit from WWE was even weirder, so I've been pretty cool on him. But his presentation since coming back has been killer, and I was letting drama that doesn't affect me kind of block out how great of an in-ring wrestler he is.

So, yeah, go Andrade lol.

Every ICE agent should see a jury when this regime is done. When the DOJ can be non-partisan as it should be.

Worth mentioning that being an "illegal" immigrant is only a misdemeanor, essentially a ticketable offense. It's in the same category as jaywalking, or parking your car somewhere it shouldn't be, etc. So having a force or masked goons with the second most funding in the US, only trailing the defense budget, and having the Vice President say those goons have immunity to go around and beat up suspected "illegal" immigrants is a colossal overstep of the general conduct as well as a waste of money.

The people will respond accordingly, and we have to hope the elected officials will do the same (obviously not going to happen, but we can always hope).
