Incredible how many Platner dead-enders there are. I know there’s a real hunger for any kind of progressive candidates, but if nazi tattoos are not disqualifying, what is

Yup, that’s them

Sonic Racing Crossworlds is a Good Kart Racer. Doesn’t reinvent the wheel, barely even iterates on the wheel, but there’s lots of neat tracks and great music, which is about all you can ask for from one of these

Halo: Infinite, hell of an ending to the saga. Sad to see it go

Rewatched Hellraiser. That’s such a great fuckin movie. Shoutout to the fat Cenobite with the sunglasses who doesn’t do anything and gets fucking smoked by a falling ceiling

Time to see what the deal is with this Baki guy

You can tell by the way they talk about it who’s reread Hickman’s Ultimate Spider-Man in the trades and who’s read each issue one time as they came out

Something I like about this site in comparison to the other one is that it doesn’t have a For You page dedicated exclusively to posts that the algorithm knows will annoy me

ZdarskyCap good

One World Under Doom… very good comic book

It’s crazy how much the current crop of X-Men comics simply do not exist

?????

Between George Miller and now Grant Morrison, it’s disappointing that so many of our aging auteurs are just throwing in the towel when it comes to AI. I don’t know if it’s coming from some misplaced sense that they’re just “keeping up with the times” or what, but you hate to see it

Gonna try to post over here more. Vibes on twitter have been pretty miserable lately

Rewatched Fantastic Four now that the 4K’s out. Still think that movie falls just short of being one of the true greats within the genre, but that space sequence is A++ shit

I will pretty much always cut and run by the halfway point if a game isn’t working for me, so there’s very few truly bad games I’ve rolled credits on, but… I guess Bioshock: Infinite?

The failures of the Spencer era are best embodied by Hi-Fi Rush, a mid-budget original game that released to massive critical acclaim and, by all accounts, strong sales, and cultivated a passionate fandom basically overnight, to which Spencer’s response was to close the studio and sell off the IP

Day after Gunn drops a kind of middling finale to an otherwise good TV show to cries that the DCU is Dead, Marvel Studios comes in to remind people what an actual trainwreck clownshoes operation looks like

Have no idea how to feel about Peacemaker season 2, a season of TV I pretty much loved from start to finish except for a finale that I thought totally beefed it

Peacemaker finale a whole lot of nothing. Extremely weird and deflating after an otherwise very good season

Having no DC books on my pull currently has revealed that the Big Two in 2025 is really just the Big One + the Ultimate Universe

Joe Kelly’s ASM is not the worst run on that book in the last 20 years (I think you’d have to go out of your way to top Nick Spencer in that respect), but it is the one to finally convince me that the thing is irreparably broken on an editorial level

Got baited by twitter into catching up on the current run of Amazing Spider-Man

They make a little baby speedster

Simpsons Movie 2 should be a tribute to the Scully years the way the first movie was trying to harken back to the golden age. The real Skinner should be the villain. There should be an inordinate amount of screen time for Lenny. Get Señor Ding Dong in there

The fact that no one in WB marketing, who presumably had access to the entire season, picked up on this in the opening is hilarious

$30 for nearly the entire run of IDW TMNT is an insane deal. These are excellent comics.

Jor-El and Lara (2025) are technically Superman’s parents, but within the narrative they are functionally his God, their words his holy scripture and he their loyal prophet. He’s been practicing the teachings of the New Testament because the Old was lost to time, until now

John Boyega was absolutely treated poorly by Disney and Lucasfilm and I don’t want to minimize that, but it must be said, his Star Wars opinions are uniformly dogshit

Have seen multiple posts accusing Deniz Camp’s Ultimates of being a toothless book about revolutionaries trying to install a liberal democracy. Bad criticism! Very obviously not true!

Superman (2025) still a five-star picture

Mandalorian & Grogu trailer has people on twitter talking about how good Rise of Skywalker looks, so I’m happy

This rules lmao

iPhone 17 good. Never going back to a phone without a 120hz screen

I hate that so much of the art and stories that are meaningful to me are owned by like five assholes

Slowly catching up on the Energon Universe. I think Transformers is the only book in the line that is genuinely exceptional, but I am pretty impressed with the overall narrative structure of the thing

Let's all help each other live long enough to see Project 2025 collapse.

The tactics of the Star Wars fandom are now mainstream conservative political maneuvers. Pretty fuckin bleak

It feels stupid to say but I do kinda think that if they cancel South Park the wheels truly start to come off the entire right-wing cancel culture project

It’s perhaps overly optimistic but I do think they’re making a tactical error by slamming the gas as hard as they’ve been while simultaneously making life worse in the only ways the majority of Americans really care about (treats are unaffordably expensive, TV shows are getting cancelled)

Contact damage during stunlock??? In an action game in 2025??????

Think fandom would have a much healthier relationship to capeshit if they would just accept this

What the fuck are we doing, man

The bit where Black Adam gets into a Mexican standoff with some goons, brandishing his lightning fingers like a six shooter, is one of the most sincerely funny jokes in a superhero movie this decade

After reading that TCJ piece, this email was far too nice lmao

It’s an absolute shame that DC fired Gretchen Felker- Martin for exercising free speech and then @bsky.app suspended her account. Every writer here should be decrying this because we have to stand up for each other! This is ridiculous.

I want to make @jamesgunn.bsky.social aware that DC Comics @dc.com has let a hate group bully them into canceling a comic book by trans creators because of posts. People tried to do that to you before & so I thought you might want to know and offer a statement of support of Gretchen!
