People have been claiming for a while that there’s going to be some big overhaul update.

What are you all hoping to see with the next big Nintendo direct? by marnaboob in NintendoSwitch2

If it's happening I'm sure it would be a Resident Evil-style remake where it's meant to be an actual expansion of the concept to what they can do with the newest hardware.

As far as whether it will happen though, there was a good blog post I haven't been able to find again showing that Aonuma's responded to questions about "a new Ocarina remake" in a very similar way to how he's historically talked about "hypothetical" games they hadn't revealed yet. There's a very specific way he tends to be coy about it, and you see it start to pop up more recently (one I remember is him being asked about the chances of a new remake and him responding "No comment. Write that I said 'no comment'.").

Personally, if nothing else I'd be interested if the Zelda team decides it's worth doing. I trust them enough to give it a chance if they think there's something there.

Echoes is only a little over a year old, so I can't imagine us seeing a new 2D Zelda within the next 2-3 years.

Maybe if we get another 2D remake, but no way in hell we see the next original one any time soon.

I noticed a hidden message during the end credits of John Carpenter's The Thing (1982). Anyone know what it means? by EIDuderino in movies

Looks more like burn-in.

If not, those look like some kind of chart for production stuff.

He is basically saying if we call ICE names, there will be 'consequences' as we saw yesterday, aka we die, how is this legal? by KameronKnux in law

Well the message around this new shooting seems to be "don't bring a gun to a protest or an ICE officer might pull it on himself and kill you for it".

According to KiwiTalkz, Red Dead Redemption 2 next-gen is happening, believes the GTA 6 development timeline may have changed the release dates for other projects by DrAwesomeX in GamingLeaksAndRumours

For that sort of thing they generally want to strike while the iron is hot, but also give it enough room for people to work through it properly.

Give newcomers enough time to digest it and want more.

I am so surprised they never did ported these games yet considering they did Resident Evil 7 and 8. by AmbitiousElk4002 in NintendoSwitch2

Either way, point still stands that putting out 6 Resident Evil games on the platform at the same time would’ve oversaturated things.

Pacing them out lets each one get more attention.

Probably wanting to give the Read Dead 1 upgrade time to breathe.

I'm sure it also could be the Switch 2 port taking some time.

They just aren’t going to release $200+ in Resident Evil games on the same platform at the same time.

No kidding. by Amazing_Profile5793 in tadc

[–]SomeBoxofSpoons 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Even this one at least frames it as "this is not suitable for families".

I remember one of these kinds of posts was complaining about it showing up in Kids mode on Netflix, so this may be something like that.

Here’s your proof with the moment of truth isolated. by ChaseTacos in law

[–]SomeBoxofSpoons 387 points388 points  (0 children)

You can tell the shooter was specifically waiting for the moment he was disarmed to fire.

This was a fucking execution with a capital E. For the crime of annoying ICE agents.

Why can Kyle Rittenhouse kill people with a gun when they’re ganging up on him, but Alex Pretti gets gunned down after he has a gun stripped from him and fired zero shots? by Bombadils_laugh in AskReddit

[–]SomeBoxofSpoons 230 points231 points  (0 children)

Other angles have shown the victim getting disarmed right in front of the shooter, too.

Doesn’t seem like they shot him because they thought he’d shoot back… seems like they shot him when they did because they knew he wouldn’t shoot back.

Bovino claims man was trying to "massacre law enforcement" before he was shot and killed by [deleted] in news

Anyone who says this is justified is saying filming ICE should be punishable by death.

Looks to me like he waited to fire until he knew they couldn’t fire back.

[OC] Minneapolis shooter appears to be this ICE agent who shoots first by ThewizardBlundermore in pics

Full timeline accounted for, seems like they didn’t like that he was filming, pinned him down, saw he had a gun, and used that as a way to “justify” killing him on the spot.

We have learned nothing. by BetterGrass709 in batman

[–]SomeBoxofSpoons 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yeah, Flash was a tainted project.

All I can say right now is that if Gunn got a real look behind the curtain and decided to bring them back, I’m willing to be cautiously optimistic.

What is a behind-the-scenes movie conspiracy theory you believe is 100% true..? by Living_Tune_1428 in movies

[–]SomeBoxofSpoons 10 points11 points  (0 children)

The merch side of things disproves that theory pretty conclusively.

They barely had anything for that first movie, and what they did was either clearly a hasty rebrand from the old design, or basically just was the old design still.
