    Questions on the new Mad Max movie

    If by "feminist," we mean "has female characters playing parts besides the damsel or eye candy," then yes, this movie is SUPER feminist. Serious answer: there's some interesting themes involving gender laced through the film, but if the movie has any sort message about feminism, it's that...

    Ghost in the Shell Casting Shows We Need More Than White Feminism

    I'm of two minds on this. On one hand, it's awesome that female-centric movies are getting the green light more and more. That is unquestionably a good thing. But yeah, I do wish Hollywood felt financially comfortable with casting a non-white person in a non-white role. I understand why...

    Call of Duty Advanced Warfare, should I get it?

    I actually just finished playing through the single player a few minutes ago. There's a really good game hiding in there, but it's mostly covered up by the old "hallway full of bad guys and chest-high walls, shoot until it's empty" design they've been doing forever. The different mobility...

    [Legend of Korra Finale Spoilers] Implied with a sledgehammer!

    I never really boarded any of the ships. They always give me the internet equivalent of seasickness. But the hints were definitely dropped from the end of season 3 through season 4 that there was SOMETHING going on between them. I disregarded it as fan-teasing, but apparently that wasn't the...

    The Big Picture: Off Target - Don't Censor Me Part 2

    Support? You really got the impression that he was supporting Target? He called them cynical and dumb. Boy, those are some supportive words. Correctly identifying their refusal to sell the game as free market capitalism instead of censorship does not mean he agrees with their actions.

    "Intentional" Gas Leak Injures Furry Convention Attendees

    Daaaaaaaamn, someone went to A LOT of effort to hurt some people who are into stuff he/she doesn't like. Silver lining: maybe this'll remind some people that furries are people too, and don't deserve the particularly vile harassment the Internet tends to fling at them.

    Titanfall is Getting a 4-player Co-op Mode

    As a dedicated Titanfall player, I am excited as shit for this. Invisible spectres? Suicide titans? This has the potential to be chaotically fun. The game is in dire need of some variety for people who aren't unhealthily in love with the game itself (hi...), so it's nice to see that...

    Poll: How many people on here suffer from mental health issues?

    I had a pretty bad case of Sensory Processing Disorder when I was younger. It made raising me a living hell for my parents. I've mostly grown out of it now, though it's left me with a few idiosyncrasies (I have to eat some food in very particular ways, and long sleeved shirts drive me insane)...

    New Jupiter Ascending Trailer Expands the Universe

    WOOOOOOO, WACHOWSKI MADNESS! That's why I love those two. They go all out on their crazy ideas. Even if said ideas result in a massive train wreck, I can't help but admire that dedication to insanity.

    Prove to me that the Gaming Community Excludes Women

    I.....have no idea how to respond to your question. For starters, your thread title is extremely confrontational and doesn't really relate to what you actually ask of us. Not a good start. Also, who the hell are the "mainstream gaming press?" What exactly is a "high profile" game? What...

    So whatcha playing Escapists?

    Ni No Kuni. IT'S. SO. PRETTY. I'm a Ghibli fanatic, so playing a game set in a world that's a holy mix of all of Ghibli's sensibilities is a dream come true. And Joe Hisaishi's musical score.....just perfect.

    Gary Oldman Slams "Political Correctness," Calls Dark Knight Movies "Work"

    Uhhhh, Bob? Did you actually read the interview? Because correct me if I'm wrong, but it seems like you're kinda misrepresenting several things that Gary Oldman says. And by "kinda misrepresenting" I mean "spinning it like a goddamn carousal." Besides the bit about Jews running Hollywood...

    Disney's Descendants: Teen Children of Famous Villains Go to School

    Wait wait wait.... "Doug, the son of Dopey?" DOPEY GOT LAID???? That took this movie from "Kingdom Hearts Cosplay" to "Dear God, What Is My Life And I Must See This Now."

    Transistor Review - Red Red Fine

    Beat it today, loved the everloving shit out of it. Sometimes the best narrative ideas are the simple ones if they are executed well, and Supergiant has shown that they are masters of execution. Excuse me while I go and listen to the soundtrack for the next 3 hours.
