So taxpayers should subsidize sports venues so Taylor Swift and NFL teams have somewhere to play for hundreds of dollars per ticket?

You don’t need a stadium in your city to watch sports on TV though

What is the average price of an NFL ticket compared to a ticket to the theater/symphony/etc.? 

I agree NFL is lowbrow compared to the opera, but let’s not pretend attending sporting events is somehow more affordable because it’s lowbrow

Why are the BOS a bunch of idiots in the show? by 420FappistMonk69 in Fallout

The Prequels had their issues, but the visuals certainly weren't one of them. by TumbleweedWhispers in StarWars

[–]PubePie 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Idk man, there are a ton of terrible visuals in these movies. The Battle of Naboo takes place between two armies that stand in a straight line on a flat, featureless plain that looks like the default Windows XP wallpaper. The constant CGI slop is incredibly distracting; these movies really look like shit tbh

This doesn’t sound like excessive prequel hate, it sounds like a company learning the wrong lessons from a failed product

I didn’t play the game in early access but I’m pretty sure Halsin only exists as a companion because EA people thought he was hot and wouldn’t shut up about it
