The formula still "works" because there are still stragglers who haven't been over-exposed to the whole thing. Yahtzee just suffers from having to play every single game until the whole thing becomes old hat. If he wants something new and different, he should try playing something like LISA...

It might just be that not that many movies have come out directly about the Iraq war, and this is just an empty niche that needed filling.

I think the key issue of this show is that it is really bad. I watched the first episode and every bad, lazy joke where they inserted "she" into a word made me die just a bit more inside.

There have been fighting games with all-new characters lately, like Skullgirls. Fighting games just tend to be a bit of a niche market, so as long as older series keep staying alive, there's less room for newcomers.

shit; doublepost

I actually think of South America when I think of lost cities, since one of the archetypical lost cities, El Dorado is located around there, or in southern-North America, but I suppose the point of racism still stands. I do think however, that the standard american perspective on racism does...

That's not the only way to do cheap animation. Rocky and Bullwinkle got by fine without that. Of course, a bunch of the incidental characters had jowls that allowed their mouths to be animated separately, but the two main characters were just one piece for the most part. Animals were not...

I would of expected oyu to say that Superman can't be married bcause he's literally the messiah of the DC universe. 'Cause he is.

That's not in particular very vital information, I can see why he left it out. I didn't know most of this stuff before, even if it is a very broad and undetailed way of looking at it. I'm definitely checking out that book though.

It's really neat to hear about this stuff. I know nothing about movies, and these tales of the history of popular culture are fascinating. It's a big change from moviebob's normal, highly opinionated stuff. I suppose it may be natural, if not fundamentally necessary for creative industries...

So that's where people impotently yelling that they're mad as hell comes from.

Wait, so are you saying Unicron DOESN'T show up in this one? DAMMIT BAY! THREE MOVIES AND WE GET A PLANET THAT EATS PLANETS! THAT WAS THE DEAL! Also, you're tired of militarism, so a WW2 movie's gonna cure that? Are you that much of a fan of everyone's favorite war?

Oh yeah, and last I checked Super Sentai is an entire genre, not a franchise.

Guinea pigs are for people to eat, not the other way around. Transformers might count. I mean the show started out as a collaboration between Japanese and Americans, but after the show ended over here, the Japanese continued it in Japan, and they came up with some things that Americans would...

The problem with John Stewart in the Justice League was that he was so uncreative. Fire lasers, surround himself with energy so he can fly, push stuff around, pick stuff up, maybe make a WALL if he's feeling really creative. They also sorta forgot about the crazy weakness, until the episode...
