The anime Cowboy Bebop employs a cool soundtrack to distract you from the mediocrity of the anime itself. However, the title track is one of the greatest deterrents against new viewers.

Of the two obviously cynical cash grab intellectual properties , Cars is the superior series in comparison to Shrek.

The worst Pixar movie is way better than the best Dreamworks.

I'm glad that, at the moment anyway, Mike Myers' career is dead.

The incessant pandering to Chinese sensibilities in the Kung Fu Panda series is the reason why Shrek is the only good original IP in Dreamworks.

Ah yes I'll just be leaving 20 "Welp this is Jerry Cotton from rear end Fart Inc. calling about [x] but since you're not answering I'll just call one of your competitors I'm sure you'll appreciate knowing that and also listening to this dumb-rear end message.

Voicemails can be helpful if you know I want to talk to you but are calling from a weird number, but probably 99%+ of the voicemails I actually get are either 30 seconds of rustling around because they didn't push the hang up button, a pre-recorded thing, or some rear end in a top hat from the alumni association I don't want to talk to. I can't remember the last time I actually called someone who left a voicemail back. If someone misses a call from me I'll either just send a followup text saying to call me when they get a chance, or try again later.

4k sports looks amazing when I see it at the store but I don't watch sports. And 4k content is lacking and takes too much bandwidth to stream. It's going to be a while before it becomes more mainstream. Much better than the 3D poo poo they tried to force down our throats though.

I think most people with those opinions just aren't watching things filmed in those resolutions. Like for a while with HD, pretty much everything besides sports was non-HD and looked not so great, but when you watch things designed to take advantage of your TV's capabilities it looked great. I definitely saw a trend where people bought the 1080p giant flatscreens for thousands of dollars the year they were coming out and were very disappointed, whereas people who waited a few years for things to catch up with the technology thought it was great. I assume the same thing is happening with early purchasers of 4k stuff.

On the other hand, I saw some TVs in a shop recently playing a normal DVD and it looked absolutely awful because the picture was too low-res for the TV. Maybe there was some option they had set wrong, but it was definitely not a good ad for new TVs.

They were probably using the "upsampling" feature that most new bluray players have for older movies. Sometimes it looks ok, more often in my experience it looks really, really bad. It should really be left off by default and let people who want it turn it on, because most people my parents' ages don't even realize it's a feature you can turn off and just deal with it and complain that kids these days are even ruining their old movies.

How have you never come across "PUA"/MRA culture? They had a crush in highschool and tried to backdoor their way in by being friends first, it didn't work out, they turned into bitter husks the rest of their life who think all women are leading them on.

In their case, yes it is impossible for them to be friends with women because they'll always sabotage it by hiding their "I want to date you" feelings until a few years down the road and spring it on them and hope they are stunned into saying yes instead of being up front from the beginning.

The comic book format could've been a wonderfully unique form of expression like the other artistic mediums but legislators decided it was for children and created legislation to pretty much enforce that reality. At least for a long time. It's a real shame that happened.
