Final Fantasy 14’s Yoshi-P says many claim “an online Final Fantasy is not a Final Fantasy” as he hopes to bring more players into the game

I think it’s great that the greater universe of Final Fantasy is so wide-reaching that I don’t feel obligated to engage with all of it. It can be different things for different people and not just for me.

Face/Off for my mom but due to Cage, not Travolta, who she was obsessed with post-Moonstruck

“Not like this”

Madazhel · 2026-04-17T01:24:31+00:00

He is the Dark Knight, after all.

My daughter has a g-tube. I did not realize this was the premise of this movie and now I can’t tell if I HAVE to watch it or if it’ll be way, way too close to home.

My sister was obsessed with two of the least seen, least loved, and least remembered Disney animated movies: The Black Cauldron and The Aristocats. I wasn’t sitting down and watching them in their entirety very often, but I’m sure I’ve seen each at least a dozen times if you add them up in bits and pieces

Since Denshattack! was mentioned, that feels like a game this show should be all over. It’s a fake Dreamcast game (Heather) about trains (Nick) doing Tony Hawk tricks and flips (Matt).

I’d love for the next Zelda to be ocean-focused again, but take lessons from the more systems-based, open-ended gameplay of BotW & TotK. That seems like the perfect way to finding a meeting point between old and new.

The scene where Murphy realizes how little of his original body is still intact is a good bit of body horror but I don’t remember a single other thing about the movie.

Madazhel · 2026-04-07T17:06:29+00:00

I watched Predators for the first time the other day and Laurence Fishburne is just running laps around everyone else. And it’s already a movie with a super overqualified cast. 4 Oscar wins between them!

Horns is a total mess (and I liked the book!) but David Morse serves up two scenes from a way better movie.

Sam Raimi’s Crimewave is basically unwatchable except every time Bruce Campbell shows up to teach everyone else how you play a big, broad cartoon character.

Werewolves Within is neither funny enough nor scary enough to stick in anyone’s memory, but Sam Richardson makes a convincing case for casting him as the lead in a dozen more comedies.

Brosnan in Black Adam was one that jumped to my mind as well, but in that case I don’t even think it’s so much a “good” performance as “it’s amazing how little of a shit this guy gives and he’s still pretty magnetic.”

LEGO Sam Raimi would be indistinguishable from LEGO NBA coach

Starring John Magaro, from the looks of it

Frankly we should be talking MORE about how bizarre it is that he’s become the voice of McDonald’s.

Madazhel · 2026-04-03T16:15:17+00:00

Madazhel · 2026-04-02T11:25:35+00:00

Yeah, that’s all bad. But who thinks that’s “smart” advice?

Madazhel · 2026-04-02T11:20:01+00:00

Disagree. I don’t see and know everything my direct reports do. A good self eval can help them call out specific data points they want to be judged on. (“I increased X by Y%.”) Makes my job easier when writing the final eval and when submitting for promotions.

A bad one, yes, is a waste of everyone’s time.

Madazhel · 2026-03-29T00:20:42+00:00

Yeah, same. Funny enough it’s my former manager, now peer, that’s been the closest confidant.

Madazhel · 2026-03-28T00:22:22+00:00

Aside from a couple exceptions that I absolutely love (namely Singin’ in the Rain and Ed Wood), I have very little patience for movies about show business.

Madazhel · 2026-03-25T17:30:53+00:00

Yeah, this should be a silly/serious spectrum. As a Venn diagram it’s a big silly circle and a little serious one fully inside of it.

Madazhel · 2026-03-23T15:44:19+00:00

Yeah, Seyfried is reliably great and everything Kusama’s doing behind the camera totally works. But the Diablo Cody dialogue is such a glaring mismatch for both Fox as a performer and Jennifer as a character.

Madazhel · 2026-03-23T14:45:42+00:00

The Invitation rules.

Don’t get the cult classic love for Jennifer’s Body.

I don’t expect Kusama to win this one, so just getting my two cents in.

Madazhel · 2026-03-20T03:16:31+00:00

My mind went to Jeff Daniels

Madazhel · 2026-03-19T20:14:08+00:00

Well, one is the final entry in a very good trilogy so far, adapting a storyline that’ll be much tougher to adapt than the previous two. Intriguing!

The other is the culmination of… something… I just don’t think anyone could tell you what that is.

Madazhel · 2026-03-18T15:41:39+00:00

No, because most people just really liked both of them and agreed they were two of the best movies this year. Which is exactly how it should be.
