so apparently there's some new RESIDENT EVIL mobile game coming out and they got Yoshitaka Amano of all people to design a villain for it and the result somehow ends up "We Have Griffith / Femto at home."

Pictures showing off "Mortem" a new villain for the Resident Evil mobile game SURViVAL UNIT designed by legendary artist Yoshitaka Amano. From upper left: Amano's artwork, a shadow-y figure that looks like a winged medusa, next a picture of Amano, then two pictures of Mortem's in game render, a white haired man with demon wings that surround him like a cloak.

Thinking back to how Peter Weller would demand everyone call him either "Murphy" or "Robo" on the set of ROBOCOP and everybody's reaction was "hahahaha no lol." and would bust his balls over it.

It’s so funny how every time Jared Leto does his method acting in a film, the director and crew have to go out of their way to be like “woah it was so intense, he was so in character, it added so much depth” and then you watch the film and he’s giving the most lazy, no-thought performance possible

"I do address him as Ares when we're filming and everybody goes, we get a little bit up. He's the general walking onto set, which is fine," Ares director Joachim Ronning recently told Screenrant. "And it's not
uncommon for actors to do it like that.
And it works for him. And I think you can feel it in any movie he makes. He's completely into the character."

"Hey, the Sirens are a ROCK BAND!" "Narcissus's is a narcissist and every other line of his dialogue will be a joke about this!" "Anime but not quite art style!" "Every character design is either "my cinnamon roll" or "Step on me.""

"morbin' time" was a dumb meme. The only thing that was funny about it was it some how convinced Sony that people actually wanted to watch Morbius again.

In 1971, comics legend Jack Kirby created SPIRIT WORLD, an adult-oriented magazine based around the paranormal. Featuring his trademark collages, Spirit World freaked DC Comics out so much that they published it under a non-existent imprint, Hampshire Distributors!

Today's installment in my 31-day essay series on John Carpenter's HALLOWEEN is about the illusion of middle class domestic calm in Haddonfield, how Tommy Doyle sees through it, and how Laurie Strode gets swept up in it just as the knife's about to come down.

Honestly, Thiel's misaimed LORD OF THE RINGS obsession makes more sense when you take into account that he seems to be a big fan of a LOTR *fanfic* that casts Saruman and the destructive industrial movement he represents as The Actual Good Guys.

Yes, Thiel's an even bigger loser than you thought.

I read Peter Thiel’s essay on Alan Moore’s Watchmen and it unquestionably proves that piss poor media literacy is foundational to this recent rise of fascism.

As for complaints about "where's the craziness and extravagance!?" well...I dunno how you'd get wild and extravagant out of a faithful adaptation of "teenage death march through dying America" exactly. Material's just too bleak for that.

Hence why we should have gotten Romero doing it in the 80's.
