This is exactly the kind of stupid silly bullshit video games need. A game from Japanese developer about a relatively obscure "what if?" TMNT comic? Fuck yeah. Personally the actual comic was surprisingly forgettable beyond the premises, so I think a video game would be the perfect medium to...

I wasn't remarking that its crazy that he went from comedy to horror, more that making the jump from short form content to Hollywood is incredibly impressive. His YouTube channel isn't even that big, subscriber wise. The producer must have REALLY loved his stuff.

Genuinely crazy how Obsession came from the mind of a guy who made skits on YouTube Shorts. Or at least, that's what I knew him for. I guess it only makes sense that the Jordan Peeles of the future will be coming from social media backgrounds.

Man I am not reading for another few years of people being insufferable about the new God of War. I haven't even been able to get to Ragnarok ffs.

It's pretty much how everyone under 30 dresses up for the office these days. OT: I was going to be a good older brother and buy the new Lego Batman game for my siblings back home, my PC there is literally gathering dust with no one to play it. But what the actual fuck, it is more than FOUR...

We finally got around to watching the infamous (maybe?) Suzume, from the people who made Your Name and Weathering With You. I was wondering why Makoto Shinkai hasn't really been in the news lately, and I think this movie is the answer. Suzume has a ton in common with previous movies. Teenage...

Oh it's Korean, I thought the letters on the street looked Korean but the "4" looked Japanese. I guess Korea is the least politically sensitive setting for a modern warfare game now. I'm surprised there haven't been more honestly.

I genuinely cannot imagine putting out this kind of money for what is ultimately an indie game machine, and I say this as someone who has more or less colonized his girlfriend's Steam Deck. The Steam Machine is looking a lot more shakey.

That's exactly why, I always forget this Tech forum even exists. First I assume the thread is in Off-topic, then I check Current Events, then I remember this forum is a thing.

Surely though that is the most "missing the forest for the trees" thing ever though. Even as as kid reading comics on the high seas, once a comic got bad enough for me to give up on it, I pretty much never went back to see how it was doing.

Is this meant to be based on a storyline from the comics? Nothing looks particularly familiar to me, although I'm hardly an X-men fan.

Yeah I am pretty confident the decals are not AI because they don't look awful. I am 100% sure they asked ChatGPT "what should features should a good badminton racquet have" and then just sent a screenshot to their Chinese manafacturer, based on how the owner talks about their brand online...

Man I always have a hard time finding this thread. Today I learned that there is a Swedish badminton racquet brand, and I got all interested. Turns out it is less than a year old and their entire selling point is that it is "designed by AI". What the fuck would AI know about designing...

I think it's generally an issue of expectations. I was led to believe that the movie was supposed to be a The Martian-esque sci-fi, but the science is pretty definitively second-fiddle to Grace and Rocky's story. Once they hand-waved away interstellar travel I forced myself to relax and accept...

I really liked Project Hail Mary. Visually amazing, Gosling is Gosling it up, fun soundtrack. Conceptually, the sci fi set up is really fun. But a lot of the science is just so distractingly dumb. I don't even really care about that stuff, but it's so central to the movie so it's impossible to...
