    Escape to the Movies: Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles - Kids Deserved Better Than This

    It's true, the current generation deserves a good Ninja Turtles. Unfortunately, the good Ninja Turtles is being delayed to god knows when because this is in theaters. Yes, I'm saying the Nick TMNT is pretty good.

    Escape to the Movies: The Purge: Anarchy - Original Idea Done Better

    Just remember, it's not the thoughts or actions of actual rich people, it's the thoughts and actions of rich people as Hollywood sees them* -- utterly evil, completely devoid of human feelings or compassion, seeking to kill off the poor, when not looking for some way to grab the last little bit...

    Escape to the Movies: Noah - Brave, Bold, Bizarre and Kind Of Brilliant

    No. No you are not. I too am thoroughly fraking sick of extreme anti-humanist (because that's what they ARE) writers trotting out their "humanity is a plague on the earth" crapola. They're basically the same creature as the evangelicals Bob riffed on, just of a different religion. Of course...

    Jimquisition: Monetizing Whales For The Retention Of Virality

    Jim's "panel" reminds me of that scene in Liar Liar, where Jim Carrey's character (an attorney) upon hearing that his client is an jail again and wanting advice, picks up the phone and screams "STOP BREAKING THE LAW, ASSHOLE!!" Thoroughly obvious advice that you know the recipient won't take.

    The Big Picture: Orphan, Black? - A Look At The New Annie

    You can imagine how this went... "It's just that there isn't enough material with a black cast." "Well, you could just write original material..." "AHAHAHAHAHAHA!!! You're so crazy." The desperation of Hollywood to find more to mine is REALLY starting to show.

    Was that Commissioner Bunnyface on the intercom?

    Common Sci-Fi tropes that annoy you!

    Three big ones for me are "Businesses (or to use the bete noir word, "corporations") directly run the government, cause they're evil", which is completely f'in stupid, and would make no business sense whatsoever. I had to give up on Continuum because of this one. Related is the trope of said...

    People biting it from injuries that we could theoretically treat in a current trauma center is one of mine.

    Jimquisition: Fee-to-Pay and the Death of Dignity

    Wow, is the Wii U the only Gen 8 system I will buy? Have Sony and Microsoft really managed to piss away that much, that I can't be convinced to follow the multisystem pattern I had for the past 4 generations? It feels like a big part of my life might come to a stop. At least I have lots to go...

    Jimquisition: Free To Wait

    All the Bravest will go down in infamy as the day Square sold its soul to the microtransaction devil.

    OK, good. Scared me for a minute.

    What Has Nintendo Done Right Lately?

    I can see Nintendo succeeding as a software-only publisher, as long as their headquarters has an eternal flame in front of it, kept lit by the burning corpses of anyone who suggests joining the Day 1 DLC model. Nintendo is basically the last place where you get what feels like a complete...

    Miracle of Sound: Man and Machine (Titanfall Song)

    Mighty No. 9 Becomes 3rd Most-Funded Game on Kickstarter

    How on earth is he NOT going to get sued by Capcom? Aside from the undeniable truth that it would incinerate any good will they have left? Personally, I will buy the game, and I think it would be awesome and hilarious if Beck is added to Super Smash Bros. 4.

    The Big Picture: Science!

    The Africa problem is a "power-hungry douchenozzle that keeps food from people to cement himself as 'in charge'" problem.
