  • I remember when Fall Guys came out, there was often a blatant cheater in the matches just flying around in the air skipping all obstacles. But then something beautiful would happen during team games. Through an entirely unspoken agreement, any team that got matched up with the cheater would self sabotage and intentionally lose so that the cheater would get out.

    Nothing was more heartwarming than seeing the entire team standing around a giant ball, refusing to let it move, while the cheater flailed around in vain trying to knock it away.


  • People always make this complaint, but I really can’t blame the movie studios. Moviegoers have shown time and time again, that as much as they complain about the lack of original IPs, they don’t go see them when they come out. Movie studios want to make money. If the public has shown again and again that they’ll fork out $20 for a remake or some generic superhero crap, while completely ignoring original films… well, which do you think the studios are going to embrace?

    Even the few original films that do come out have to be marketed in the same way a remake if they want any attention. “From the Producers of Nostalgically Popular Movie”, “From the Director of Big Series Everyone Knows”, “Starring That Actor Who Was in All Those Other Films You Used to Love”. Original movies can’t stand on their own anymore. The few that do are the rare exception, not the rule.
