See also; all the terrible films that use practical effects and are still terrible. I'll admit I do often love weird props and set dressings that wouldn't make any sense out of context, though, even from bad films.

I was worried seeing Will playing finger style initially. When I woke up this morning he had wisely switched to using a pick. You could have the calluses like tortoise shell and 24 hours of that would still shred your fingers.

It seems they've taken a Dualistic interpretation to the famous "what *is* a mince pie?" question. Thankfully they didn't take it to the logical conclusion of only providing empty pie casings.

Not just the gold ones. There's got to be a few grand worth of parts in every desperate human just trying to live outside of never-ending terror we could monetize.

But with a 54 seat capacity, this implies 35.1 tickets have been sold. Do they have to leave 6 minutes in?

The moral is "Carrying dead weight might be a burden, sure, but what the fuck else were you doing?". I think.

I can absolutely sympathise with the idea that it has been so stripped of everything that made it worthwhile it isn't worth fighting for. I can't help but wonder if we'd say the same of the NHS when they've broken that down enough as well, though.

I think"AI Artist" is an oxymoron but if you come across... "Prompters"(?) this is how they see themselves quite often. Some of the BTS scenes here are obviously designed to mislead. The script sounds like it was written by AI as well, which may explain the inaccuracies.

I suppose Animal is possibly one of the easiest to manufacture? As a design, he's not got a lot going on.

It's maybe a lack of room for innovation? GTA became something much bigger, and more varied. Machinarium was innovative in the space by becoming more focused and smaller in gameplay scope. Was there anywhere to go other than 'better' puzzles and stories, without altering what the genre really is?

I think there was a bit of a drought in the genre in the mainstream after Grim Fandango and when the big names did release games after that, we got Escape from Monkey Island and Broken Sword: The Sleeping Dragon. Neither truly *bad* games, but not good enough compared to the earlier work.

It's not what is being said so much as the absence of anything said against it. Someone in Parliament should be furious but there's nobody there.

What you want is a proper 3-2-1 backup strategy. The issue was always that Leonardo only thought to paint one Mona Lisa.

Ah, you're right. I had only rewatched it a couple of nights ago, but I did get the name mixed up. There's some War Donkey material used in it as well, so I wasn't even sure where it originated.

It's part of a more fleshed out routine (and worded far better than this) but the joke is essentially in "A Bic for Her". Which was recorded and broadcast.

I think it is just Vodafone and a number of reporters don't know what network they're on. The numbers of reports for other providers are negligible in comparison
