OFFICIAL STAFF COMMUNICATION

The purpose of this thread is to discuss the potential capabilities and features of next generation consoles. While rumors can be part of this discussion, it has been increasingly difficult to separate rumors from confirmed fact.

To help clearly separate fact from rumor, please note the following:

1. Official detailed specs have not been released, certainly not enough to conclude which console will be "more powerful" than the other. Claiming as a fact that your favorite console is the strongest will be treated as thread derailment. Rumors should be treated as such until we get official word.

2. As always check your sources before posting any rumors. Do not cite banned sources or information from banned sites. You are responsible for what you post.

3. If you have sources or leaks of your own that you would like to share, please reach out to staff first to verify your information. If you do not verify your information with staff before posting you will be banned.

why would anyone do #3?

how can anyone do #2 when there's no list?

another dual ban, whatever happened to that other guy who was twice-banbed:

User banned (duration pending): defending sexualised imagery of minors over a series of posts

I don't know if you know this but grown women can be skinny. She is not designed to look like a child. That is not a drawing of a child.

User banned (duration pending): defending sexualised imagery of minors over a series of posts

Still not a drawing of a child.

Here's a cut character from CCC meant to be part of the same group as Meltryllis who was meant to look like a child. What a surprise she is very obviously a child.

For crying out loud not every skinny anime girl is meant to be a literal child. Criticize FGO for things it's actually doing instead of imagined things.

clicked onto the last page of that thread

Honestly... I feel crazy because it does not feel like a movie that should have a RT% lower than 75-80%. Then again, I guess that % doesn't actually mean shit.

Exactly. I don't believe oversimplified scores like the tomatometer are worth much at all.

I think people also forget the ratio a film like this gets in reviews. It has 200+ reviews vs like 60+ on Bombshell perse. None of this shit is science.

Had the same thought. After this and The Morning Show, I'm done with bothering with reviews.

So when is the “its like poetry it rhymes” meme going to die. Plinklett and RLM really change the course of how some of the fan base see Star Wars, or film making in general.

What's the score now? The main pages says 59% but the sidebar says 57%. Which is more accurate?

the RT% is literally a % of who thinks it is worth seeing or not, that's why it only has TWO values "fresh" or "rotten" not a score, it's never been a score, how

edit: they once actually checked the reviews so where somebody gives a movie a 3.5/5 but says "wait for it on DVD/streaming" it's listed as "rotten" because the answer to "should you go see it or not?" is "no"

[maninthemirror]

Joker actually sealed for me the fact that professional reviews are a hive mind who pile on top of each other trying to get a quote people laugh at or be amazed at. It’s also pretty clear that professional critics have groups where one leads and the others follow and when a critic is mocked for a bad review the others join in giving their opinion drowning out the criticism on twitter creating a 1 bad opinion vs 20 critics illusion

I have found places like letterboxd and verified audience reviews as a more accurate number

RT's original intent was, unlike the old days where you open up the newspaper and there's all the listings and also the local reviewer who says whether he liked shit or not, you go on the internet to check movie listings/times and most people aren't going to bother to read the reviews they just want to know what ones to see. But the two are no longer connected on sites. So they'd give everything a rating based on the reviewers so you can go "I'm thinking about these three, what's the order they liked it" and go see that without much effort and if it sold out you know the next one on your list.

That's why On Cinema At The Cinema is a refreshing and helpful and informative and trustworthy format.

Let me tell you about my close and personal friend, Nintex…

[Nintex]

https://www.resetera.com/threads/has-this-always-been-a-thing-foreigners-worshiping-trump-on-social-media.160389/

 

The majority of the population of most European states not named Germany (or France) always support the Presidents of our allies.

Our politicians may not appreciate the billions and billions and billions spend by the US on NATO each year,
but the closer you live to the border of the former Soviet Union or Germany the more you appreciate the Americans for both D-Day and yeeting the commies.

For the Dutch there's also the part of getting along well with the American and the British and being suckers for American pop culture.
Even though our politicians have tried to diminish this over the years, either trying to make us more nationalist (Dutch dubs instead of subs being the norm for cartoons now for example)
or more 'European' with things like a European Content Quota for Streaming Services such as Netflix and Amazon.
We always revert back to the entertainment we import from the US and UK. Likewise, we export our pop culture to the UK/US too with EDM being the most notable example.

It's kinda funny how stuff like a Disney+ beta or Alexa voice control is available here (even when there's not even a real Amazon presence) and only later introduced for Germany, France etc. .

Poland is surprisingly following the same direction as the Dutch. Betrayed by both the Russians and Germans in the past they seek out the US instead.
Having the biggest and most anticipated video game production is something very big for Poland considering only 30 years ago it was a closed communist society.
