      When you talked about the gaming news sites i thought "Hey they didn't mention Kotaku" Then today I see an article about how a SEALED first edition Zelda might sell for 700k.
      Then I realized why they didn't mention Kotaku.

    Madame Web was made because if Sony doesn't have a Spider-verse movie in production at any given time, they will forfeit the license. So we must be prepared for even more crap Spider-people movies.

    Crunchyroll does have one competitor, HIDIVE. A smaller library but it has some critically acclaimed anime that Crunchyroll doesn't.

    Sony is making all these crappy Spiderman related movies because they want to retain the IP rights for these characters. There is no quality or passion behind these movies. They're sticking it to Marvel. Madame Web made a speedrun to Worst Movie of 2024. We still have Kraven and Venom 3 as contenders as well.

    You know, all The Rock had to do was be the bad guy in Black Adam, make sure the Justice Society was likeable but badass enough to take him on(or just be the bad guy in a Shazam mini movie), and he'd have to submit and be caught or incapacitated at the end. Thennnn maybe Black Adam can be in a different movie where he can get some redemption, however small, it's not a happy character.

    Pat, c’mon man. What the Rock pulled was shitty, and his films are on the downturn, but there’s no way he killed the DCU. The DCU’s whole, “we’re gonna make dark superhero films that people won’t be comfortable taking their kids to, but we want the box office of the kid-friendly superhero movies” is what killed it. Also, when your comic book movies are being masterminded by a guy who doesn’t read comics, there’s an issue.
    And you might need to read more comics from the 60s if THAT card looks like 60s style. It’s definitely trying to look “retro,” but that’s as far as I’d give it.

    Just chiming in on the wrestling bit....if you think that there was a last minute switch, you are being worked. This has been in the works for months. Cody dropped hints in interviews over the summer on wrestling podcasts that the rock was coming back and he was going to be involved. The rock too had dropped hints during the college football season that he was getting back in. He even mentioned that it was not going to be a one and done and the story was going to be for the "long haul". That was way before the royal rumble lead up to the WM press conference. This is a work 100000%. This entire thing has been planned and you got duped. The WWE has had plans to change their story telling into more "mature" story telling. Paul Levesque HHH has been saying that for months! Ya just gotta pay attention. 1000% a work

    I don't think "The Rock" ruined the DCEU, it wasn't really anything good to begin with. It was pushed out too fast without a good plan and unified vision behind it. Some movies did good but others did poorly, along with pushing out a 'Justice League' movie out before they even introduced the starting members with their own solo movies.

    Everyone is gonna hate me but i can't not say it: Arzette is capitalizing on nonexistent nostalgia. Nobody liked zelda CGI. Nobody liked the gameplay or the art style. The developer is just trying to make players remember a time when they were much younger and (apparently) happier, while at the same time making a game with cheap art and basic gameplay that is simple and easy to make.
    It's the second dumbest game I've heard of this month, and (for your information) i just heard about Peter Molyneux's NFT game "Legacy" (yeah, it's old hat. I don't keep up on news, especially not stupid NFT crap news or stupid rich narcissist Molyneux news. That'd be like subscribing to a news letter about finding a rapist in my city to network with.
    I'm not an idiot.
    Arzette and all nostalgia bait projects that put nostalgia first and quality second can go blow Peter Molyneux's goat on Twitch for $0.07 cents an ad 'impression'

      I liked the art style mostly, I watched a few youtubers play it 100%, yeah the gameplay sucks and the backgrounds don't show what you can stand, walk and etc but if it had more time to brew I'm sure it would have been fine. Especially knowing what platforms is what, and giving hints how to do things. It's kinda like the mario bros movie, the first one, it's bad yes but it's so bad it's good.

      It's not really about fake nostalgia, but capitalizing on memes and camp. It's the same premise that drove the making of the Cheetahmen 2 cartridge or the remake of Plumbers Don't Wear Ties. There's an audience that likes campy stuff and it will sell to them.

      It's not really capitalizing on fake nostalgia, but instead meme culture. It's the same reason why Bubsy got a sequel and Night Trap got a remake. The game might not actually be good, but it's campy, and there's an audience who will like it just because of that.
