Ew, I had to defend my boss. I feel gross. I'm gonna go take a lap outside for that one.

Yeah, there are people getting heated about Wet Link as a talking point, but it largely is people debating the merits of the remake and remakes as a staple of culture. That is by definition discourse.

I'm gonna be a snooty millennial and say that isnt what flame wars are. Flame wars is an old forum term for fights in threads started over nothing and usually perpetuated (fanning the flames) to get people the most riled up they can be. The Zelda remake discussions are far closer to discourse.

Oh it 1000% is. They wanted to tell shareholders that big games are coming to make sure they dont get scared investing. It sucks that is how the industry is run and irresponsible for all parties to put forward something that was literally a thought and nothing more.

This is why I HATE know about games when they are in early development. Tell me about stuff when you are maximum a year out from release. I can not get hard or passionate about a title anymore.

It's hard to be made about something that was only "I'm thinking about maybe making a game, and it may or may not be on a Playstation console. Here is my trailer announcing this thought." we got that over 2 years ago and apparently its not progressed much farther than that.

Not even close. Gang of Dragons had a trailer. It had gameplay to show. It clearly had character models made. Physint was just in the "I'm thinking about it" phase.

Its super easy to throw stones at Sony for canceling Physint (they fucking suck ass), but I gotta be honest, if I agreed to fund a project from a well known auteur to make a console seller, only for them to still be in the "conceptual stage" almost 3 years later, I'd probably be pissed about it too.

I would like to extend my best wishes to all, even the haters and losers, on this special date, the Kirkiversary.

I know people are going to immediately start throwing AI accusations at Nintendo because of how it looks, but I dont think thats it. I think its been so aggressively cleaned and polished that it's lost any idea of a creative vision, to the point it looks machine made.

I hate how overly textured everything is.

When your scene kid teenager wants to show you the weird new movie they're into (The Crow), so you just gotta grin and bear it.

If I wasn't already sold on Creggar's RE movie, this would have cinched it.

A lot of the time its just taking a break from it and doing something else. I'm terrible with writers block, but I feel if I work on something else and then come back with fresh eyes, it helps a lot.

It's rare to say something was emotionally exhausting but in a positive way but thats how it felt being at All In again. Getting to scream my head off and get hype with friends while we watch some of the best wrestling you could ask for, I couldn't ask for me.

NEW VIDEO: Fallout 2 is a beloved entry in the series, but rushed development, crunch, a loss of leadership, (and talking Deathclaws), have caused some to see it as inferior to the original. Today I dive into this sequel to see what it's all about! youtu.be/hZZsLfW9X_U

I'm sorry but I have to say, if you are planning on buying GTA6, especially day 1, I actually think less of you. Between the removing features for pricier versions, removing physical but costing more, and now needing a subscription service to see a trailer, this is a company that hates you.

I dunno, something about that movie I find enthralling. You can throw that on, and I'll watch it all again like nothing. It's just a bunch of top-class actors turning in great performances, telling a real piece of history in a huge way that keeps you invested. It's just real good piece of film.

I get chills every time I hit that scene at the end when Batman finally realizes he has to be more than a symbol of vengeance. He can be a symbol for those in need. IT'S SO FUCKING GOOD! This is the edgiest Batman film, but it somehow has the kindest character arc for Bruce that so many miss.

Foxcade @foxcade.bsky.social · 04/08/2026

Rewatched The Batman, and I think it's firmly cemented itself as my favourite Batman film, so I had to have The Dark Knight trade places with it in my top 4.

6341

Also I know people wanted to see Savage Hulk but why was it here? Like did Bruce suddenly lose control of his Hulk form? His entire arc in the Infinity saga of MCU was learning to accept the Hulk and gain control of that side of him. Now he suddenly cant because we need a fight scene for Spider-man?

1170

It really feels like Bruce's role in Brand New Day was supposed to be Curt Connors (The Lizard), but couldn't get it to work, so they shoved Banner into that spot in the script and had to contrive a bunch of character motivations that don't fit with where he was the last time we saw him.

1150

And then we throw AAAAALLLLL that development out the window for Brand New Day, where Bruce is now back to being scared of becoming the Hulk. He talks about him being a big rage monster and even rigs a device to keep his powers in check, which feels like it walks back all the previous movies.

1100

I don't hate Smart Hulk, I think its a good approach to the character, but it feels like we have to imagine so much of Bruce's developments between movies because MCU has no idea how to write a concentrated Hulk story, and they just make up developments for us to go along with.

1130

But we basically skip that entire journey (also a deleted scene in Infinity War), so in Endgame, we just have Smart Hulk, and Bruce just explains to the audience how he reconciled his two forms to become one.

1130

Except NOPE, because in Infinity War, Hulk is now too scared to come out after losing one MMA match to Thanos, so Bruce can't transform the entire movie. His character arc seems to be about getting the two identities to form a union rather than fight against each other.

1120

By the end of Thor Ragnarok, it feels like its going in the direction that Bruce has more or less gained some sort of control of the Hulk, and can keep that form without being a "rage monster"

1100

This is where you can really feel each film writer/director writing Hulk however they want. It's not that inconsistent yet but it does feel we are straining to keep to a consistent character arc over the series.

1140

Jump to Thor Ragnarok: Somehow Hulk is able to fly the jet into space and end up on a war planet where he can just Hulk out all the time and fight. He has full sentience as the Hulk and is basically just chilling there until Thor shows up.

1130

But then at the end of the film, Hulk develops enough presense of mind to fly off in the Aven-Jet to self isolate so he can't hurt anyone else. Kinda feels like an arbitrary decision based on where the film was going but sure. Bruce is scared of the Hulk still and its manifesting in the Hulks action

1120

Avengers Age of Ultron: We pull out this random plot point that Black Widow has charisma to make Hulk de-Hulk by calming him down through some sort of training they established between movies? Sure, I can go along with this.
