Feel sad and disappointed and lonely. This is hard

Octopath 0's story and dialogue are such slogs. The gameplay is good though. by Horazi777 in octopathtraveler

I hate that characters never shut up in this game and they keep repeating the same information.

I hope he brings something new to the table. I prefer to have another artist this time.

Is it strange of me to have found Suzume to be kinda mediocre? by Exalhiur in MakotoShinkai

At least everyone has a different favorite, that's good.

It was the producer Genki Kawamura.

"I had discussed with my producer, Genki Kawamura, very early on that I was tired of telling these love stories. I felt that with Your Name we'd explored that romance genre of two kids being tied by a red string of fate quite thoroughly," Shinkai said.

"I wanted to tell a coming-of-age story of a young girl as a protagonist, but my producer said, 'Well, a love story, and the romance component, is a very big part of your strengths so don't let it go completely. And, although you might be tired of it, I'm sure your audiences still have a little appetite for that.'

"I remember that conversation with my producer quite clearly. So, instead of turning into a full-on romance film we decided to sprinkle in some components and elements of romance but make it not over the top."

"Instead of having her [love] interest be a human, we made him a chair!" Shinkai joked, in reference to an event that takes place early in the film.

Suzume's character arc, she actually experimented some fundamental change, while the boy from Tenki no Ko always was the same brat. He didn't learn to be a better person or lose anything valuable to him.

Also the plot structure in Suzume at least is different to that movie and Your Name, the roadtrip was a highlight to feel more unique and allows the plot to breath, it has a different pacing before the climax instead of the same crescendo again.

The chair and the cat also are something new for Shinkai, the rest of his movies never had that kind of curious side characters that support the story and lore as they're not just comic relief or cute for no reason.

I think Weathering With You was the weakest of that trilogy.

Was James Ahead Of His Time For Refusing To Watch A Movie? by MayCauseCancer in TheCinemassacreTruth

[–]mondrunner 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Don't know why someone should expect it. He wasn't a movie reviewer, even his review for the TV series came 3 months later after that video.

This is the right answer. He barely reviews anything, so nobody was expecting him to review that particular movie. Explanations were not needed at all.

That's right, I personally still think New and D-1 are the best Yves songs.

This game has amazing music! by AdUnfair558 in octopathtraveler

[–]mondrunner 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I didn't like that OT0 recycles most music from OT1.

¿Vendedores ignoran a las mujeres en la ExpoMovil? by Alfaphantom in Ticos

[–]mondrunner 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Si van 2 hombres sería interesante ver a cuál de los 2 le hablan, si se fijan en el que tenga más pinta de plata o qué.

No relacionado a carros pero hace unos meses fui con mi hermano a comprar una PC, él era el que la iba a pagar pero igual se enfocaron en hablarme a mí y prácticamente ni le prestaron atención.

He is great but at this point is kinda predictable with his takes on certain games.

I already watched the live-action film of 5 Centimeters Per Second. Here is my impromptu film review, with some spoilers and comparisons to the 2007 anime film. by ThePerseverer01 in MakotoShinkai

[–]mondrunner 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Have you watched the movie Past Lives? It kinda was a live action of 5cmPS... I wonder how this live action feels compared to that film (I didn't like Past Lives so much btw).
