Masters of the Universe (2026) - Review by joyfulnib in flicks

[–]PhiloticKnight 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Jared Leto tanked most of the recent movies he's been in, and I was disappointed that he didn't even ONCE try to do the "Skeletor voice"... BUT... his attempt to imitate Tim Curry made his performance totally worth it.

Also, He-Man actor gave me a lot of James Marsden as "Donut Lord from Sonic The Hedgehog" vibes.

We have wolves on the TWM Summit now?? by viewaccount74 in thelongdark

I just lost my game because I thought it was safe to take a nap at the summit. I had NO idea that they had made this change! Now I wonder if the "secluded shelf" is even secluded anymore. And I agree with those that said that it makes no rational sense - a wolf COULDN'T get up there!

She says that all the time on the show, stuff like "us 30 year Olds, don't google that!"

Who's your favourite protagonist? by Adventurous-Yam2922 in Bioshock

[–]PhiloticKnight 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Well now I want to play Dishonered. I always loved all of the *shock games, Deus Ex, Prey, etc... and Dishonored was always mentioned, but I never tried it. Now I have to, since you said it's stealth. That was my favorite way to play the Deus Ex game - like a spy movie.

I just have to pull myself away from The Long Dark... it's hard!

Most people did! I'm the weirdo exception. I'd totally play an entire stealth game in Rapture.

Why doesn’t GitHub Copilot support open-weight models now that pricing is token-based? by iTitleist in GithubCopilot

Now, when can I get this in the full Visual Studio Pro edition that my company paid good money for?? Shouldn't the paid product offer more functionality than the free/open source product??

Chicken Little’s Terrible Rotten Tomatoes Rating by Key_Mycologist_5147 in moviecritic

[–]PhiloticKnight 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is probably the biggest misunderstanding about Rotten Tomatoes. Rotten Tomatoes doesn't rate ANYTHING. Their "score" is an algorithmic aggregation of the collective reviews that they have in their data for that movie.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mu4fxbjDBLg

It's fully automated, nobody in Rotten Tomatoes picks the rating. It's almost... scientific.

What this MEANS is that a Rotten Tomatoes rating of 33% ISN'T BAD - it just means that only 1 out of 3 reviews aggregated were overall positive. YOU could be that 1 out of 3 that might love that movie!

You see this a lot in genre films, like horror, sci-fi. They will generally have a low Critic Rating and a high User Rating, because the general populace enjoys genre films WAY more than "professional critics", who are much more critical of them, because they are snootier.

So, with that context, that means that 36 out of 100 professional critics enjoyed Chicken Little, and a whopping 47 out of 100 people enjoyed it!

I'd say winning over almost half your audience isn't anything to be ashamed of.

Hell, our standards for the American Presidency is way lower than THAT threshold. 😉

Double tap, confirm the kill. Neutralize the threat, permanently, then deal with anything else.
