Today, 02:05 PMI dunno, the moped gang in Boba Fett isn't a fan callback, is it? Sure, sure, memberberries are a flaw, and those definitely are fan centric, but to...36 replies | 1656 view(s)

Today, 12:31 PMOverall, I enjoyed it. I'm not sure I enjoyed it quite as much as the first one, but it was still a fun watch, and it at least felt true enough to...18 replies | 2141 view(s)

2024-03-14, 10:29 AMVeidt chose to go there. Yes, he was quite clearly bored of it by the events of the show, but the use of all these people is deeply unethical. Even...190 replies | 12288 view(s)

2024-03-14, 07:14 AMI've not read the latter, so I'll assume it's better. HBO's Watchmen is one of the worst TV series I've actually watched without quitting, mostly out...190 replies | 12288 view(s)

2024-03-13, 12:58 PMAh, I hate the series so very, very much. In it, everyone seems mostly okay with Veidt despite him literally lording over slaves that he makes...190 replies | 12288 view(s)

2024-03-12, 02:44 PMThat is a popular viewpoint. But deciding that stopping the supervillain is too unlikely, and cutting a deal with him instead isn't really the stuff...190 replies | 12288 view(s)

2024-03-11, 06:47 PMIf you can't assume that a super wealthy, famous director slapping out blockbusters has control of what he is doing, can we at least assume that when...178 replies | 14142 view(s)

2024-03-11, 11:36 AMThey do not. When Spiderman is given a choice between saving a traincar full of people or saving one...he does not calculate expected values. He...190 replies | 12288 view(s)

2024-03-11, 11:34 AMIt is in this case. In general, while pragmatics act, they act in accordance with the situation as given to them. To use the tired ol' trolley...190 replies | 12288 view(s)

2024-03-08, 07:04 PMCan you find counter-examples? Are there popular cultural heroes that say things like "oh, this is bad, but fighting it would be difficult or...190 replies | 12288 view(s)

2024-03-08, 03:28 PMCorrect. Scale makes Veidt the villain. In a story with no Veidt and people who were more empathetic, it would have been easy to cast Rorshach as...190 replies | 12288 view(s)

2024-03-08, 03:12 PMSo, this world looks amazing. If it lives up to the trailer, I'm pretty excited. The character, however, appears pretty forgettable. I do not yet...36 replies | 1656 view(s)

2024-03-08, 01:57 PMIf you're 2d, probably Godot. If memory serves, Unity handles 2d by basically just...presenting a 2d plane within a 3d space. You still have a lot of...7 replies | 471 view(s)

2024-03-07, 05:21 PMI fully agree. I hated that the "No Compromise, even in the face of armageddon" became "do whatever, so long as you wave a flag" or whatever. It was...190 replies | 12288 view(s)

2024-03-04, 04:22 PMThis is a pretty solid example. While even the show from time to time indulges in edginess for the sake of edginess, the comic has almost nothing...190 replies | 12288 view(s)
