The worst question is something to the tune of: “That story that CNN just broke, what’s your take on it?”

I don’t have an opinion on any story to share, but I will happily tell you about the time Viggo Mortensen broke his toe on the set of Lord Of The Rings instead.
What’s the worst question someone can ask after you tell them your profession? For linguists, it’s definitely “how many languages do you speak?”, but I’m curious what else is happening to the rest of y’all out there?!

I want to love SteamOS, I desperately want to love it, but every time I try to play a game from GOG, even through the Heroic Games Launcher, it’s just such a miserable experience. And that happens to be where I buy most of my games so 😭

Learning the hard way Dead Or Alive 3 on Xbox Series X doesn’t support quick resume. I was on the last boss in Arcade mode and now I have to start that run over.

I got my handheld PC mostly set up and ready for docking with Steam Big Picture and it works much better than my original little test. Now that it’s set up on a PC I already have, I’m not considering the Steam Machine anymore… but the Steam Controller is still a maybe to smooth out navigation quirks

Agents Of SHEILD had a bunch of these, most famously when Captain America: Winter Solider blew up the premise of the show and if you didn’t see the movie on opening weekend the show spoiled the twist in the next episode.
After "film trilogy that dropped a critical plot point exclusively via timed Fortnite event" and "video game series whose story only makes sense if you're aware of the events of a canon pachinko machine", I feel like there are whole frontiers of user-hostile narrative design waiting to be explored.

And I got my “non-refundable” Kill Bill ticket. Fandango was really explicit about that. It’s silly, but I’m nostalgic for the version I made based on the 2006 Cannes version by pulling footage from the US Blu-rays and Japanese DVDs. Before anyone asks, no, never shared it for obvious reasons.

Apparently Xbox Full Screen Experience comes to all Windows handhelds tomorrow.

I joined Production I.G 16 months after its release, and even after 30 years, this film still remains as a true masterpiece.
Happy 30th anniversary to "Ghost In The Shell" movie by Mamoru Oshii (released in Japanese theaters on November 18, 1995).

Clair Obscur is on sale on the Xbox and GOG stores at the same price and I’m conflicted by wanting to play it on my TV (as well as getting a PC version bundled in through the Xbox app) and my desire to get it without DRM. Not sure what to do

Name is Emma. Been cosplaying for about 25 years. I love learning new skill sets and enjoy emphasizing the crafting aspect of cosplay and the enjoyment I get out of that. I’m a former educator and love running panels at conventions

Name 4 dormant/dead franchises you want to be brought back.

(Frankly, I’ll settle for a straight port of Fragile Dreams to the Switch 2 with higher-resolution textures and that’s it)

Tried docking my handheld PC to my TV to play PC games and I have an even bigger appreciation now for Switch and Switch 2 making that whole process stupidly simple. I was hoping I could just launch Steam Big Picture Mode and not think about it, but I found myself using KB+M more than I wanted.

I haven’t checked in a long while but Lazarus and Uzumaki are in the Top 200 iTunes Animation Best-Selling charts again. Not bad for the Toonami originals. I’m assuming Uzumaki was probably higher before and during Halloween.

Oh weird, if you still have access to the old iTunes Store that is a feature, but it’s now gone from the AppleTV app.

Once again, I am happy I never updated my phone to get rid of the iTunes Store.

I want to do the 24-hour race in Gran Turismo if Le Mans is one of the courses.

Sony’s following in Nintendo’s footsteps by offering a region locked console solely for the Japanese market at a lower price. I wonder how that’s been working out for that market and if Japanese gamers simply don’t care for International games that they could import.

I kinda knew that Discotek would be the first ones to take advantage of the extra space on 4K UHD Blu-ray to do a HD-on-4K Blu-ray in the vein of their SD-On-Blu-ray collections. Not insider knowledge or anything, but a hunch that they’d try it.
Next up, it says 'Collection', not Edition like the normal Blu-ray.

The reason for that is, Project A-ko 2, 3, & 4 are on the disc in 1080p SDR, dubbed & subbed.

So all 4 are here.

The new release of Kill Bill: The Whole Bloody Affair will finally include the entire Production I.G sequence that was not finished for the movie until well after the Cannes premiere in 2006. If you’ve caught it at The New Beverly, it didn’t include this sequence as it’s the same print from Cannes.

I won the Mario Kart 64 race, but it was close.
