YES Wallace and Gromit is so fun, and I love introducing stop-motion animation to kids. And looking at them all, these movies seem to have a love for older pulpy genres like monster movies and noir

it gets me so hard everytime.

Phrasing! Hahaha

Lots of episodes can get a little violent but the first episode is golden for teaching perspective and that the "bad guys/good guys" dichotomy isn't what it seems, and to be kind to everyone, in a way that is a little easier to digest when they're little.

Do not underestimate silent film! My kiddo loved them as a toddler. Here are some great starters:

  • The Cook (Roscoe Arbuckle)
  • Sherlock Jr (Buster Keaton)
  • Gold Rush (Charlie Chaplin)
  • A Trip to the Moon (Georges Méliès)

Very engaging with way more visual gags than we usually see nowadays, few title cards, and a chance to talk with your kid about what is happening on screen (Ooh no, Charlie is stuck in the lions cage! How is Buster going to get on that runaway train?)

And eventually when they're a little older, getting your kid to sit down with you to watch Scorsese's Hugo (2011). It is an absolutely magical loveletter to early film, particularly Méliès' A Trip to the Moon.

They spend TT planning their honeymoon, and then spend so long on it that it asks until after Aragorn and the hobbits' kids die of old age

Literally verbatim what an officer said when we couldn't get a hold of animal control and he got sent over instead...

I love that Daggerfall is one big quest to be to go-for to secure power for the ultrawealthy but you can easily go "nah," or even play them off eachother.

To me this says less "Leftist" and more "rich urban planners cutting corners for lower-class housing which will end in a horrific fire or collapse."

I really need an SNL sketch with Jeffrey Epstein as Jacob Marley, but with bedsheets instead of chains

I was a dumbass and downloaded a shit ton of viruses. I couldn't afford to get a tech to fix my mistakes and XP didn't have a bootable recovery menu. I followed a tutorial on how to make an Ubuntu image flash drive, and the rest is history.

I was bad at computers and priced out of being a dumbass. I'm a sysadmin now 🙃

My rep has a 1 star review on Google, if that's any indication
