Yeah, I was about to say, 99% of people are either unaware or do not care. Don't mistake Lemmy's privacy opinions as representative of the general population.

I keep seeing the posts about OW2 where everyone is acting like blizzard is getting destroyed by the poor reviews, but, like you said, they still already made bank on these games in spite of all the complaints that have existed since launch. Blizzard just out here like:

Completely agree. Remember when people lost their shit over horse armor in Oblivion? That would be seen as reasonable now. They just kept forcing these things until it was normalized, and now we've had an entire generation grow up with MTX as the norm.

For real. I imagine they'll be finding someone new, but no one will ever truly be able replace him.

I love the content/creators, but hate the company that runs it. Sadly, unless you are willing to give up the channels you love there isn't much in the way of alternatives.

Too many current-thing jokes has been an issue in 2/3 of the episodes. Forget aging well; the jokes didn't even land now. For me, it's 0-3, and I think I'm going to be dipping out unless I later hear it has a consistent return to form.

I was on reddit before the digg exodus, and the current state of lemmy feels somewhat reminiscent of those times. When communities are smaller there is just a completely different feel than the 1 million+ subscriber goliaths some subreddits became.

Hickman and Dragotta reunited soon after their phenomenal Fantastic Four run to give us this Sci-Fi Western set in a alternate reality fractured dystopian United States where the Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse are the world's only hope. It's honestly just such a cool world to dive into and learn about.

Would recommend to sci-fi fans, comic fans, and those that just love world building.

A few of the major powers in the world:

The Union
The Endless Nation
The Kingdom
The People's Republic of America

I've been watching the X-Files. Back in the day I'd only ever sometimes catch episodes here and there on TV, so this is actually the first time I've sat down to watch the whole thing. Only partway through season one at the moment, but really digging it.

Same, I had a knee-jerk angry reaction until I saw that it was free.

You’ll be able to watch live coverage of future launches, documentaries, and brand-new original series the agency is producing exclusively for NASA Plus. The agency is looking to “better tell the stories of how NASA explores the unknown” and connect with more people by transforming its digital presence

And best of all, NASA says it will be “ad-free, no cost, and family-friendly

It's legitimately one of the best Star Trek movies.

Hook with it's 29% tomatometer rating. Dustin Hoffman—sexual misconduct allegations aside—fucking nailed it as Hook, and I think the general concept of an adult Peter Pan returning was pretty cool. Also, who doesn't love Robin Williams? It was a movie I loved in my childhood so I am absolutely biased, but 29% seems absurd. I still find the "Don't try to stop me, Smee" scene hilarious to this day.

I read this and it does not say he shot down rumors of a justice league live action film despite that being stated in the title. This is all it has to say regarding Justice League:

DC announced over the weekend a Justice League animated film that would be released in 2024 and it’s based on Crisis on Infinite Earths. Many deduced that this could be the basis of a possible live-action film by Gunn. However, Gunn shot down the rumor by replying to a fan with a simple “No,” on Threads.

It simply states there is no Justice League film based on Crisis on Infinite Earths coming. This article mentions 3 heroes—Guy Gardner, Hawkgirl and Mister Terrific—but fails to mention they also added Anthony Carrigan as Metamorpho to the cast as well. Feels like the author kind of half-assed this. Honestly though, whether the movie is labeled as such or not, once you reach a certain number of DC heroes teaming up it becomes a Justice League film by default.

Also, it will reportedly be animated by MAPPA—the studio behind Chainsaw Man, Jujutsu Kaisen, and the final seasons of Attack on Titan.
