🦊STEAM:
🐰ITCH:
alex hirsch going full scorched earth on his relationship with disney and just airing out all the shit they had to deal with on gravity falls is one of my favorite character arcs on this website
inktober being mostly dead because the guy who came up with it sucks is one of the best things to ever happen around here. no more debates over whether or not digital art counts. no more people feeling pressured to participate for clout and stressing out if they miss days
"why would mario have a thick, stereotypical italian accent if he's just a guy of italian descent from brooklyn" because he's not a real person he's a funny little cartoon that goes wahoo
i can't believe they're just randomly dropping the news that a live action zelda movie is in the works on a tuesday with no fanfare and the main name attached other than miyamoto is the producer of morbius
This is Miyamoto. I have been working on the live-action film of The Legend of Zelda for many years now with Avi Arad-san, who has produced many mega hit films. [1]
the DSP zelda clips going around are funny and all but they really are illustrative. if you ever wonder why so many games seem to "hold your hand" these days and why characters say stuff like "it's a key. bet it could unlock that door" to themselves: this is why lol
bitches will be like "lol thank god i never had a homestuck phase" but they were into danganronpa or hetalia or AoT or superwholock or fnaf or let's player fanfics or don't hug me i'm scared humanizations or some shit. you are not free of sin
seeing people freak out over stuff in earthbound like the lack of a run button and the limited inventory space and calling it "objectively bad design" is so funny. i think the nes dragon quests would kill people
with all the microsoft news recently i just keep thinking back to this bit in episode 27 of double fine psychodyssey (the excellent making-of documentary for psychonauts 2) where matt booty tries to reassure the team post-acquisition and in the process says all the wrong things
all these people being like “oh nooooo poor pixar, turning red deserves to be in theaters and not streaming” WE ARE STILL IN THE MIDDLE OF A PANDEMIC WITH CASES RISING RAPIDLY ARE PEOPLE INSANE
this guy at the theater was staring at my chest with a slightly bewildered look on his face as he took my ticket and i realized that i was wearing this shirt
"kids these days have too much meme brainrot we should be scared" at 13 i was drawing awesome face and the peanut butter jelly time banana in my school notebooks and i had the mp3 of a YTMND-themed we didn't start the fire parody on my ipod. middle schoolers are just like that
the grimace shake is like something they'd make up for an episode of a cartoon where the whole cast starts obsessing over these weird purple milkshakes and then they start making people sick and everyone learns a lesson about how you shouldn't always follow trends
people will really look at undertale and ask why toby didn't make the route that fans have literally dubbed "the genocide route" more "fun" and just not think twice about what they're saying
when game freak added the ability to choose your uniform number in swsh they did understand that every single human being on earth would pick either 69 or 420 right
hey, it's almost pride month. we're all exhausted because of the state of the world and spending too much time online. can we just collectively agree to like, chill, and not spend the month bickering over bi/pan discourse or ace discourse or whatever the fuck. just this once
eurovision is terrifying to me because i never ever ever ever ever see anyone talk about it before it happens. i never know it's coming. one day it's just all over my social media feeds and i have no idea what's going on, and then it's over and everyone forgets about it again
nft dudes out here telling flat out lies as usual to try and make themselves look better. itch has always let creators set the store's cut as anything we want between 0% and 100%
isabelle is truly amazing because they managed to make a tutorial character who holds your hand through the early stages of the game that people not only tolerate but actually love so much that she's probably the most beloved character in the franchise now
never before have i read a sequence of four words that made me so certain that a creator understands their audience like the phrase "spamton after not surviving" has
i really hate that Nerd Culture puts 80s cartoons up on this massive pedestal and treats them as untouchable perfect classics because most cartoons from the 80s were absolute garbage just designed to sell toys
yes i am typing this from a room filled with transformers figures
it's really funny seeing people go "wow he was so right" when he said this in 2001, the year that gave us gta 3, metal gear solid 2, silent hill 2, halo, devil may cry, ico, baldur's gate 2, final fantasy x, ace attorney, black & white, and on and on and on
"We’ve forgotten we’re supposed to be making games,not movies. As a result, game development is turning into a circus, costs are skyrocketing, users get bored faster than ever and the development of truly new games – new ways of having fun – has all but stopped." Hiroshi Yamauchi
if you're too young to remember the height of homestuck's popularity i just want you to understand that thousands and thousands of people used to run a program on their computer with the sole purpose of giving them a little popup whenever homestuck updated
anyway i'm up to the most important part in my post-bcs breaking bad rewatch which is when jesse pinkman, canonically, on camera, for all the world to see, plays as shadow the hedgehog in sonic 06's multiplayer
the myth of the left hating fanservice in games is really funny. one of the most beloved indie games in recent memory is a platformer about a goat-bunny thing with a big ass and no pants by default
the funniest part of the "we had to cut sokka's sexism in the live action remake" thing is that it wasn't even, like, a long character arc where if you put up with his sexism it eventually goes somewhere later in the show. he gets humbled by the kyoshi warriors in episode *four*
sonic fans always arguing over whether sonic 1, 2, or 3 had the better sonic sprite when the real answer is the advance trilogy
that little guy's got RANGE
hey remember how they literally had a minor antagonist from the powerpuff girls acting as an official member of gorillaz for a little bit there and that this was approved by cartoon network and everything
thinking about how insane the plot of breaking bad would be if better call saul had come first. six seasons of developing these characters and then some fuckin teacher has a midlife crisis, decides to become the world's greatest meth cook, and fucks it all up for everyone
this is so funny, is this literally the danganronpa team making a game that’s like “what if the murder game got called off halfway through and everyone had to go home.” some saw quotes shit
transphobic she-ra fans being shocked that noelle stevenson doesn't support their views is so funny, like the most prominent character introduced this season is literally nonbinary, what the hell did you expect
the fact that twitter has apparently had a built in kill switch to stop all blue check accounts from tweeting at once is so funny. this is like a secret trump card a villain would pull out in the climax of an anime or a jrpg
if these guys let their fans do it then i guess that's their funeral but writing shipping fanfics about real human beings is weird and invasive and you should not do it
the actual prank with The Murder of Sonic the Hedgehog is getting people to stream it thinking it's the haha sonic dies funny meme game and then it's a completely earnest two hour showcase of what people like about these characters
i feel like a lot of people probably don't believe it when kirby fans say kirby has super deep lore but like star allies seems to imply that kirby is literally an elder god, just like, a small and nice one who doesn't understand anything and just wants to take naps and eat cake
“you could replace the side quest dialogue in a lot of games with AI writing and you wouldn’t even notice” play games with better side quests maybe. play more yakuza or something
we never ask what happens to the little sailor boys with the oversized lollipops when they grow up. well folks, we finally have our answer, and his name is stede bonnet
literally every single year until we all found out the guy sucked there were so many people torturing themselves doing a challenge they didn't even really want to do just because of fomo and an assumption that participating would get you attention or something
the best part about the sonic movie trailer is the massive outpouring of love from the fandom over knuckles being portrayed as sincerely cool for the first time in years
fellow artists please do not fall for this "you have to pay $8 or no one will see your tweets ever again because THE ALGORITHM and you will go broke and die" doomposting shit before the system is even fully implemented. please for the love of god don't let this stupid scheme work
you ever think about how the animal crossing new leaf dev team was like "hey, let's make the tutorial character in town hall cute and friendly so that players won't find the tutorials annoying" and they ended up creating one of the most beloved video game characters of all time
the thing about Burying Your Gays is that some straight writers just don't know it's a thing, but there are others who are literally begged not to do it and still believe that actually, MY part where the gay character is murdered is written better than everyone else's
it's rly scary how nick robinson has managed to build up a new following after the sexual harassment fiasco that got him fired from polygon. that was SUCH a big deal when it happened bc of how popular his stuff w/ griffin was. still swept it under the rug and bounced back. sucks
the reason why he-man got a cartoon is that one of the creators of the toys lied about there being a cartoon on the way in a meeting with a retailer and then they had to actually make a cartoon to cover their tracks
now for anyone who hasn't read scott pilgrim before who's going to watch the new anime, it's important that you understand that no matter what the story seems to be telling you on a surface level, clash at demonhead for the NES is actually not that culturally significant
this article is mostly an interesting look at movie lighting trends and the rise of more "natural" lighting but it completely fails to ask the obvious question of "but what does this whimsical disney movie about peter pan and tinkerbell gain from being shot like the revenant"
Why are movies so dark these days? A filmmaker explains the trends at work — and why most people theorizing about muddy cinematography are making the wrong assumptions
if you like she-ra you absolutely owe it to yourself to watch the episode of the toys that made us about the creation of the original he-man and she-ra. the story behind how those shows got made is just as cartoonish as the shows themselves
i'm so glad that this stuff was caught on film and that the documentary was able to be so honest about it. just seeing the looks on everyone's faces in that room as this corporate asshole walks in and talk about how he wants to make their studio worse. the tension is palpable
big mouth not only living past season 1 but also dredging up the tired old bi vs. pan discourse and saying bi people are nb-phobic like it’s fucking 2014 tumblr all over again is proof that we’re all living in hell
some people are truly so dense and so blinded by fandom. can't believe how many posts i've seen like "umm actually just because the fnaf guy donated tens of thousands to republicans doesn't mean he agrees with their agenda" it does actually. that is literally what it means
the part where he's like "if you wanna work on something else on the side then you should quit," realizes this was the worst possible thing he could have said, and then tries to spin it like he's being encouraging is just. incredible
oh wow, a braid remaster! hey remember when jon blow ranted about how he thinks women are biologically disinclined to study programming and when he was criticized for this he was like "ugh, my speech is being suppressed, this is what turned me away from progressive politics"
i enjoy seeing people get nostalgic over undertale today but i hate the genre of post that's like "oh it's the anniversary so today and today only i am allowed to say undertale is still good." cringe culture is dead, you're allowed to say you like it any day. it's a good game
i'm now imagining one of the live action spider-men having a goofy cameo in one of the spiderverse movies via green screen and i kind of want it so bad. i'm talking production values on the level of that bit from spongebob with the gorilla
way too many people define "good characters" (protagonists especially) as "characters who always make the exact same decisions that i would make in a given scenario"
nft art is inherently vile regardless of the merit of the art itself, but it really drives me up a wall that one of the poster children for the whole phenomenon is this absolute fucking dogshit series of randomly generated pixel art portraits that are somehow worth millions
anthony just explained to me how on his work slack someone shared a meme that was like "only at a call center can you do this at work!" with like a guy dressed as a clown drinking a soda at his desk
except it wasn't JUST a clown
the image was this
losing my goddamn mind every time i see an established artist buy into the grift and be like "i think everyone is being too mean to crypto artists 🙁 twitter is so bad for nuanced discussion" the ice caps are melting and you're more worried about both sides-ing a pyramid scheme
