Several weeks ago, Phil Tippett's legendary animation studio in Berkeley, CA closed. An anonymous hero noticed a folder of CDs. This turned out to be hundreds of unseen hi-res images and videos from Star Wars, Robocop, Jurassic Park, etc. ~90 isos for you to browse: archive.org/details/tipp...
A casual Star Wars alien fella at the cantina, in a sun faded, reddish photo. Someone will be mad at me for not knowing who this is. Phil, a balding Caucasian man, poses a model of the garthok, an antagonist from the Coneheads movie.Phil, a balding caucasian man, points at some CG on a CRT computer monitor, as a younger man looks on. The screen shows a model of a dinosaur attacking a jeep, while there's an actual physical model of that event in the foreground for reference.an isolated shot of a star wars vehicle. Sorry, I don't know star wars lol

My favourite thing to do in modern video games is not pay attention to cutscenes or engage with the lore at all and get to the end of a 30 hour game not knowing who I am, what I’m doing, or who anyone else in the game is

Cregger was a great choice for Resident Evil. I don’t really know anything about the games but that didn’t seem to matter at all minus some Easter eggs I’m sure went over my head.

Fucking lies. The only difference between the aftermath of 9/11 and today is white people are now feeling the same fears us brown people have been for the past 25 years.
