    Civil War | Official Trailer HD | A24

    I am really excited actually to see Kirsten Dunst in a leading role in something so serious.

    AI: Novel, Personalized, On Demand Media and its Potential Impact [+]

    If the cost of producing personalized fiction is very low and the cost of producing fiction the old fashioned way is high then what might happen is that all of the things that have already been made continue to be consumed and people still find commonality in which "classics" they enjoy when...

    Spoilers The Marvels (Spoilers)

    Before I read anyone else's opinions I want to say at least two things about this film were perfect: 1) the training montage where they were jumping rope; and 2) the fact that I was the only person in the movie theatre. Not a big surprise for a 1:15 showing on a non-holiday Friday but given that...

    Are Superhero films dying?

    I think I am going to go see The Marvels on Friday. The main thing is that it looks like the theatre is no longer showing it in 3D, and I have pretty much only seen Marvel movies in 3D for ages, so the fact that that is no longer an option kinda makes me wonder whether I should just wait and...

    Fallout TV Show Teaser

    Could be good. Will be interesting to see which games they take the most influence from story-wise. And what the schtick of Vault 33 is. Also whether Ella Purnell will develop into a killing machine a la 3 and 4 or whether they will lean more into the earlier games less-combat intensive...

    FURIOSA : A MAD MAX SAGA | OFFICIAL TRAILER #1

    So I will say the trailer obviously does try to feel epic but I am not 100% convinced that this will turn out be really good rather than just, say, above average. Furiosa's arm also seems to be more advanced than what she has in Fury Road (?), though maybe there will be an explanation for that.

    Disney's disastrous year

    Were it not for the "eff the haters" factor it is true I would probably not still be thinking about going to see The Marvels. If it is still in theatre next weekend I may go. Would be my first movie in theatre since Endgame, pre-pandemic. I think the pandemic completely screwed the "theatre as...

    Cthulhu in cheese commercial

    Yeah, I have been seeing that ad for months. Was definitely a, "Wow, Cthulhu has really made it," kinda moment.

    Unfortunately you have to be careful with tools not to press them beyond their material quality.

    Pathfinder Player and GM Core Are Now Available

    There was a fairly well known text (in its field) that I read in university, though offhand I do not remember whether it was a text I purchased or not, where on the very first page there was what had to have been a straight up sentence fragment because there was just not enough there for it to...

    Pathfinder Player and GM Core Are Now Available

    That comment that PF2 should not exist was certainly a take. Especially when you consider that PF2 is so good that they are literally making the next edition of Starfinder 100% compatible with it.

    Pathfinder 2E Pathfinder 2E Remaster's Death and Dying rules are brutal.

    I am glad they cleared that up. Under the non-errata'd version there would have been plenty of times when the Diehard feat would have been completely useless instead of giving you just a little extra breathing room. There were other oddities too, like how there were situations where you would...

    I have never played Hellblade: Senua's Sacrifice. But is that game not famous for its story rather than its gameplay?

    I was actually playing Inquisition recently and I was enjoying my second playthrough for quite a bit but the ball kinda killed it for me. Like, I ended up putting it off for weeks, and at the end even though I had high approval and a love interest neither the achievement nor the right scene...

    How do I know if I'm reading a good/up to date history book?

    "High school history class," may not always be the most reliable but I actually remember this bit from an elective then: supposedly the French pushed for the punishing war debt not primarily because of WW1 itself but because that after the 1870 Franco-Prussian War that Germany had extracted...

    How do I know if I'm reading a good/up to date history book?

    The Russians did not sacrifice 25-30 million dead to stop Hitler. The USSR did. According to this: World War II casualties of the Soviet Union - Wikipedia the Russian contribution was ~6.8 million military personnel, and 7.2 million civilians for Russia, and for Ukraine, less than half as...
