You see brain drain when educated people leave an area. So does this lead to brain rot?

A lot of the shots in the trailer looked like shots from the original. And the mapping balls, with the same distribution method, felt the most 'same'. Maybe that's from a flashback, but it is still an unnecessary movie. Why make a new movie/story when you can do a lazy sequel that you hope cashes in on nostalgia.

The second I saw the drill going down I locally said, 'why the fuck are you making a Twister remake'. Even pulling out the little wind ball things again. Putting an S on the name like it's a sequel instead of the remake it appears to be.

Wondering if it's not that healing magic is bad but they wanted to protect from Rose maybe? But the way they tried to show that felt really weird.

Because franchise owners can do whatever they want with the sign. But it's also important to remember that the Dave Thomas Foundation donates to a lot of anti-lgbt groups. They're big on the whole Christianity as a means to hate others thing.

The humor here is just right for me. Tearmoon is probably in my top 4 of each week and this week did a great job of 'why' that is for me. Sure it's tropey in that she did what she didn't want to do, but it's the way she tries to overcome those situations that are great. And the absolute sass at the end.

Ah yeah that's it. I'd had no issues with it, but I bet it's getting flagged on YT even though they're getting those sought after clicks and such. Cause I'd never click on an ad of my own choice.

Curious if the show will have a twist. But even if it's just the MC enjoying a good game I'm fine with that too.

Yes I know. But I wanted to make a general statement instead of typing out all the realities of corporations in our end stage capitalist hellscape. Typing on my phone is hard lol

As someone who more and more appreciates having physical discs of media I agree with what you're saying. We're seeing not just games but media disappear because they're digital only.

Digital is super convenient, but it also means you don't own anything. I've still got N64 and Gamecube games and I can play them today. But when specific servers go away I'm out my games from the PS4, PC, etc. Even the few I have discs for. It's such a bad feeling. Wish more games would launch without needing to be online all the time, especially for single player games. Seeing the depreciation of disc drives makes me sad.

Appreciate that. I should try to get back out there but it's a hurdle I can't get past. My transition has stalled out due to a bunch of physical and mental health issues. And as a jobless shut in it's basically impossible to address those issues where I live. I've got a lot of good qualities but yeah the bad feel like no one could deal with. But that's just my opinion.

Same reason they put George Soros and Dr Fauci on it. Reeks of anti-vax fascist bullshit.
