"PC" carries the implication of "everyone knows my lovely views are the truth" so that's why they keep using it

Can anyone recommend a good video LP of this?

I played Earthbound for the first time a few months ago, and it's not really that hard. The only issue is that it's kind of grindy whenever you reach a new area.

If they made Venom cute with kids, I would have about 120% interest.

I doubt it. No spoilers, but my bookstore came out with a kids book telling the story of the film, and the Rand stuff doesn't seem really apparent just going by the plot beats. It seems more like its going to tackle more family issues, and a lot of the Rand stuff was associated with Buddy. New villain, new ideology, etc.

I'm worried that Incredibles 2 will really emphasize "NEW THINGS BAD". That's how I interpreted the trailer, and obviously you could assume that Incredible 2 will subvert that trope but I'm not holding my breath for the film.

I'm pretty sure it'll just be "Cool Cat Finds a Gun" reedited again. I'm fairly certain the anti-bully one was new stuff edited together with the old short where the kids take a gun to school (some of the kids get noticeably younger and have different haircuts). It'd be pretty easy to shoot some stuff with Cynthia Rothrock or whoever and just use the short as is again. Since the kids are arrested, technically that could be called stopping a school shooting.

I mean it's still in poor taste to try and capitalize on that, but I'm not sure how offensive it'll be. Just sort of...pointless really, haha.

People also assumed that Cars 3 was about the dangers of evil millenials when in reality it was about making peace with growing old and giving the next generation a chance to shine. Jackson Storm was just a douchebags is all.

yea I mainly got 'things change and that can suck but you're gonna have to pick between the status quo and what's best for your family' and BOY would it be a bold movie if a literal Disney movie went the 'actually, gently caress your family, kill your children' route!

Fun fact: while my mom was freaking out about hoarding after watching Hoarders, I told her that I wanted her to donate my childhood favorite plush (a Winnie the Pooh stuffed bear) to Goodwill while going through my childhood stuff.

Like literally two days later I went to the movies with my siblings. To see Toy Story 3.

It was overall the worst mistake a teenager near college age could make.

LOOK WHAT YOU SUBJECTED YOUR FAVORITE THING IN THE WORLD TOOOOO

Likewise, I was just about to graduate college, and was ditching a lot of my old stuff because I needed to minimize what I had to drag around to wherever I was moving, and then I saw this and drat near had an anxiety attack.

Say what you will about Night Mind, but he's helped promote Nyx Fears a lot. Her video style has improved a lot from what they were. I hope she eventually does some more critical essays on good movies again, since she watches movies that a lot of other youtubers won't touch.
Nightmind is actually really good about promoting his friends, Nyx just happens to be the most talented of that group. Also I can't really ever be mad at Night Mind for being wrong so often, because he always enjoys bad things so earnestly that it makes you wish the thing was as good for you as it is for him.

Night Mind is occasionally dumb, does lovely skits, and has pretty low standards for horror stuff.

Dude's heart is exactly in the right place, for all that I bitch about his terrible theories.
