I very much disagree with this article. Fantastic Four has always been timelocked in the much more scientifically optimistic and speculatively simple sixties. We live in an age where we're more impacted by the scope of all we don't know and how truly much there is to learn AND by how easily we...

Sounds great! Thank you so much!

Hi everybody! Just finished playing Bioshock Infinite with my girlfriend and was debating jumping to Burial at Sea next. Trouble is, my girlfriend's not played Bioshock. Naturally, she should probably play Bioshock before seeing it, but as it likely not go that way, my question is: Does...

Again, I want way more substance from these lists. Why should I care about any of these people?

Again, could you please give more detail for all of these? Otherwise, these really aren't worth the effort of slacking off at work...

I have a similar critique to this as I did your Justice League Costumes bit: give me a reason to flip through the pages. Just showing characters isn't enough to interest audiences if they can get the exact same service by scrolling down a wikipedia list. Tell us about the characters. What makes...

I'm as much a fan of the Justice League as anybody, but this is nothing more than a collection of pictures of DC heroes. Robin isn't even a member of the Justice League. There's nothing persuasive in any of the arguments regarding their best costumes. Many have argued that the Wonder Woman...

Jim, I recently commented that your videos tend to ramble a bit. This video, however, was wonderfully concise and laid out points efficiently and intuitively. More of the same, please C:

Always love your insights, Jim. As usual, they're spot-on. Honestly, though, I don't think this video needed to be 9 & a half minutes long. Like a lot of your Jimquisitions, you seem to belabor the point when it could be made so much more succinctly and effectively.

Why does no one remember Metal Gear Solid: The Twin Snakes? It was an absolutely brilliant game that deserved to be ported several times over.

Couldn't agree more. Thanks to grandstanding developer choices, Metroid Prime Hunters was awkward to the point of unenjoyable for me. I hear that the new Kid Icarus suffered in the same way.

DREDD!!! The "Man With the Iron Fist" trailers annoy me. With emotionally-complex classics like "The Five Deadly Venoms," "The One-Armed Swordsman," and "Legend of Drunken Master" there's no need for all the extra sci-fi appendages. It's going to be a fun movie, sure, but it's probably going...

Dirge of Cerberus meets Majora's Mask?

Metacommentary might've been Suckerpunch's intent, but it's terrible characterization prevented it from realizing that goal or adequately critiquing the genres. The lack of agency didn't help.

Honestly, I was disappointed that "Brokeback Mountain" wasn't about the Man With No Name who just happened to be gay. It'd be nice to see gay protagonists whose sexuality was just a facet of their character. ME3's Cortez was a decent start, but he wasn't a character. He was just "Gay Romance...
