Never expected this to be relevant:

“Was” young? He’s canonically 6 years old. Just wait until he really starts growing.

Kung Pow: Enter the Fist. Yes it’s utterly ridiculous. I don’t care, it’s still a masterpiece of absurdity to me. That 13% on RT is a shame.

Also how has it been 23 years since its release.

Seems to be the cover art for the song “Lose”. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BYjjPjR_VxA

Yes, she does finally get it.

There are several easter eggs that still work. A few of my favorites:

• Search roll a die and it’ll bring up a special box with a virtual die in it.
• Search askew to tilt the page.
• Search either do a barrel roll or z or r twice to make the page spin.
• Search recursion and it suggests you search “recursion” instead.
• Search anagram and it suggests “nag a ram”.
• Go to the Google frontpage, type zerg rush there, and hit “I’m Feeling Lucky” for a swarm to destroy the search results.

Aw, not Beamdog. :( They made all those enhanced editions classic D&D games like Baldur’s Gate 1 + 2 and Planescape Torment. I didn’t realize they were under Aspyr, which has had serious issues itself lately, not to mention the ongoing money issues at Embracer. We’re going to hear a bunch more stories like this over the next year, aren’t we.

Even with the low framerate it’s still highly inefficient and comes to 23MB. This is why you don’t use gif for video.

Related: turning to look at a passenger for an extended conversation. At least glance at the road once in a while.

She’s changed her mind since April, when all 9 said there was no need for oversight. Glad to hear she’s coming around, if a bit late.

Jambi, I know exactly what to wish for. :( Really sad seeing your childhood pop culture figures dying.

I’m so happy I’m not the only one to think of that scene. “Are you troubled by irregularity…?”

Kung Pow. It’s at 13% from critics. It may not be high art, but c’mon, live a little, critics.

I wish that movie didn’t spoil itself with its opening scene. They make sure you understand you’re seeing the post-story world first, then jump back to actually tell it. Makes me wonder what it would have been like skipping past that bit, not knowing how it had to end.

The plot was pretty straightforward (though often rushed). I see why critics would roll their eyes at another kids movie that plays it safe like that. It’s not anywhere near the level of a Paddington or Fantastic Mr. Fox.

That said, it wasn’t really trying to be that, and was all I wanted in a Mario movie: show me you respect the franchise, add in a bunch of easter eggs and references, and be at least moderately entertaining. I just hope the eventual sequels and spinoffs aim a tad bit higher.
