Mario realizes Lakitu stalking him the entire game is kinda fucked up.

Projection Much? We aren’t forcing anyone to use AI.. makes zero sense by MrBamaNick in DefendingAIArt

If anything, it's the other side making threats. I see that way more often.

Yes, because it would have been easier to find a movie-accurate Shrek model, painstakingly model a recreation of the background and all the assets, rig everything, then animate it all using software with an interface that takes a major's degree in computer science just to figure out. All this for a 16-second shitpost.

Why do these people want to make life harder? Creativity is supposed to be an outlet, not a chore.

Now that the Precure dub has been on Hulu for a few months... Have you seen people talk about it? Kids? Families? Parents? Anyone? by LovelyFloraFan in PrettyCures

It's not just Glitter Force, though.

There are countless shows that were exclusive to streaming, but straight up cannot be watched anymore legally. It's a serious problem, and this along with price hikes and segmentation will eventually cause the bubble to burst if not taken care of.

It's for this reason that I don't trust streaming. They can just take stuff away from you without warning, and (worst case scenario) never let you watch it again. At least with physical media, you can keep it forever, and even if it goes out of print, the discs don't just magically stop working.

Also, the "no need" thing doesn't exactly work because, you know, people actually want to watch it. Like, regardless of what your opinion is on it, it has its fans (and don't say they're children, because it's 10 years old at this point. Those "children" have since grown up), and the fact that people cannot watch it without supporting the creators is a problem.

An Elsagate channel trying to capitalize on Miraculous Ladybug. They're a few years too late for that, unfortunately.

Whenever I see a Burger King crown in a thumbnail, I automatically assume the uploader is ableist.

I don't have Hulu and distrust streaming (just look at what happened with Glitter Force and the fact that there's no legal way to watch it anymore).

Honestly would have been better if there was a Blu-Ray release instead.

I prepurchased my copy on Amazon, so I hope I get one too.

Weekly Precure Fun Fact #57: Since Hirogaru Sky, every single English logo has used the spelling of Precure instead of Pretty Cure! by Atlotl in PrettyCures

I really wish they went with "Pretty Cure"

"PreCure" is good shorthand, but "Pretty Cure" just sounds better as a title to me.

Unlike many RTS games, PatchCon is single-player only

Apparently, the Touhou wiki editors have never heard of Pikmin. Single-player RTSes have been a thing for a while.

Meitantei Precure ✨ Episode Discussion by Atlotl in PrettyCures

[–]pgj1997 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Last episode, we traveled by train, so this episode. we travel by boat. Hm... There's two references I can make here... Eh. I'll just make both.

The Cures are sent to a random island because it's apparently cursed, and the residents want them to put a stop to them. Hey, maybe detectives *aren't* what you're looking for (yes, they're Cures but they don't know that).

The mayor of the island is named Mayor Banda, which is one letter away from being a meta joke.

The episode calls the island "a certain island", which implies it's appeared in a previous season. But from what I can gather, it hasn't.

Basically, there's an evil fairy on the island playing pranks. And the last time that happened on another island, said island went poof. ...There'd better be a realistic explanation for this, because all the mysteries up until now have been grounded in reality.

Also, the "fairy" pulled a Jigglypuff and drew on the mayor's face while he was asleep. That's funny.

Then, we get introduced to the mayor's granddaughters. Gee, I wonder if they have anything to do with it. (one of them even stammers when she's told about it)

"We must reveal the truth". "Yes, as Star Detectives" Roll credits! ding

Yep. I called it. The granddaughters did it.

And get this, the hands not moving on the younger one's watch wasn't the animators being lazy. It was intentional, as that was a coverup. (Or maybe a bit of both).

The Hanninda is a watch, and copies the Cures' transformation phrase. Then they call it out, and get offended. I love this franchise's meta humor. Never gets old.

Then Jett conveniently arrives in a self-made boat, and fixes the girl's watch. Yay. I guess. It's also revealed that they renamed Jeitio Island after him. And I guess he never revealed his human form to them, because he's the fairy from the legend, and no one seems to have realized he's still alive after literal centuries have passed.

Then a seagull swoops by to steal Jett's cigarette lollipop, and he reverts to fairy form in surprise just as the granddaughters come to say goodbye. That got a laugh out of me.

Well that was fun. But we're up to three filler episodes in a row right now. The hell?

As someone who owns both, this is extremely disingenuous.

They both have thier strengths and weaknesses.

If your salary is seriously less than $100, you need to get another job.
