I only really know the anime wallpaper section and /b/ on 4 chan lol

Voat is the new neofeg on steroids, so take that as you will. Less funny now, more 'who can out edge each other'

Smells like mid/late 2000s internet trolldom.

I come here to interact with banned folk I miss. I don't post much at all, and yes, mostly in this thread because I know people here. Sorry

[Momo]

But you only ever talk with Dennis

For the record, i'm not mad at anyone or anything. Just after all the arguments i've seen here, I'm pretty sure most of us have thick enough skin to take some hits and you're certainly not getting banned so why be vague? Besides, no one stays mad at anyone, except maybe magus.

l'm not surprised that Jeff "8.8" Gerstmann is trying once again to sabotage a Nintendo product. Hopefully this time Nintendo responds with legal action. They've said before they think the Switch could be a Wii like success, if it only sells Wii U numbers now a lot of that could rightfully be blamed on Jeff, and the other Jeff (Bakalar for his cute little stand hitpiece). That's billions of dollars he could be costing Nintendo here, l hope them and their CBS lawyers are ready for a fight.

I can't tell what's real any more.

[Olivia Wilde Homo]

Nintendo fans are even starting to get nervous.  Switch is DOA on release confirmed.

[thisismyusername]

Switch was DOA as soon as they announced no Pokemon console game in-dock on launch.

Who gives a shit about another Mario? Give me that fucking console Pokemon game already.

[Let's Cyber]

Who gives a shit about another Mario?

Galaxy 1 and 2 were phenomenal. 

[nudemacusers]

mario is always cool and all but breath of the wild looks legit af* so while i have no desire to own a switch, broadly speaking, i might break down in a year or two when they're less $$. gotta build my htpc first tho.

As far as I can tell, this whole conversation about Voat started with someone being annoyed about Pewdiepie. Seems like an overreaction.

I'm not saying this to you MTW, mostly to the air.

I've been here around two years now, and this exact pattern plays out every 4 months or so. The GAF thread gets too weird and veterans point it out. Sometimes the GAF thread turns into NeoFeg or Voat, yeah, but at least there's a lot of people to shoot that shit down and really skillfully. 

But if it wasn't for this thread (and by extension of what I understand of the history, this site) I wouldn't have come to the Bore. Say what you want about me I guess, but I got burnt up on not being able to criticize something I quite frankly was WAY too invested in, that being Neogaf. Sue me. This thread is cathartic, but as time has gone on I have tried to get more ingrained in other threads that are offered here (NFL, CIV VI, US Politics, NSFW, Outside Link,game giveaways, etc).

This place is not Reddit, it's certainly not Neogaf, it's small enough that I can care about what the people are doing here, but big enough that there are differing opinions.

I'm still thankful this thread exists because it reminds me how stupid it can get.

[zomgee]

Additionally I am way too old to say things like that shit.

[Momo]

Please, people get called out directly here all the time. On many specific topics. Y'all just get mad quick at shots taking at you. It's funny to bring up "why not call out specific things and actually have a discussion" when this thread's main use is literally yelling at posters at another forum who don't know you exist.

I dont link to neogaf (often) I'm in here discussing y'all discussing neogaf, also how can i get mad that you 'called me out' when you didnt, I was in fact mad that seagrams didnt call me (or whomever annoyed him) out and instead decided to yell at a cloud, if you have a specific problem with something said by me or whomever call that motherfucker out, I'm not here to take a shit in the thread and then move on, if i bother to post more than 5 words it's because I want to be engaged and will engage with people posting interesting (if i agree or not) shit.

academy awards thread

Is this what all those gaming side threads are like? 

[VomKriege]

As someone who voat was kinda obsessed with for awhile, this thread is no where near voat levels. Start discussing if I'm fuck able or not and you'll be close, but not quite

Having never been to voat, what's it like...

50% or so of the posts are about distinguished black fellows, their brown counterparts, Christian precursors following the First Testament and their intense business acumen, Social Studies Fighters and their willingness to spread their agenda, people having sex change operations, people cheated by their wife, and people sexually inclined to persons of the same sex. As it turns out those people have immense power and are ruining the world/Neogaf.

I get the complaints about this thread, there's really nothing to be poud of going on there, and yeah the pleasure of being contrarian comes with the whole "gaze not into the abyss for you'll end up an alt-righter" but we're still pretttttty far from VOAT.

I dont fully understand the alt-right whatever still, but the most nazi thing I do is watch anime. I don't think that's too bad overall

Samsung aired commercials during the Oscars, Our batteries don't explode anymore!

Neat ads. Effective too.
They aren't going to let a fuck-up this big happen ever again.

 

Good for Samsung.
They need a rebound.

Never had a good experience with their devices. But a strong Samsung is important in the mobile sector...

I think La La Land winning for a minute was karmic retribution for all the whining.

Only one real meltdown from what I saw though:
http://www.neogaf.com/forum/showpost.php?p=231095667&postcount=5014

Fucking disgusting. Moonlight should have won. Fuck this shit. Fuck everything and fuck you if you disagree with me.

Fuck that I'm mad as fuck

[thisismyusername]

Not in the least bit surprised that people who complained about OscarsSoWhite are now complaining that it was too black this year and there wasn't enough representation of other minorities. Basically guaranteed to happen. Next year when all the best picture noms are for black/Latino/Asian helmed movies, the complains will be "Why aren't any LBGT movies nominated? This is not okay". And then the year after that, it will be some other group. Forever and ever. Amen.

They can never take the small victories. No time to savor anything. It's always on to the next battle.

Except Moonlight was a LGBT film, wasn't it?

I'm kinda pissed at how they bumbled La La Land on the best picture. I agree with critics on it not being a strong "best picture" of the year (and it winning in other areas was 100% okay with me as I agree the musical number, the teleplay-script, and the cinematography were all fire) but having the La La Land folks come up, only for the director(?) to see the envelope and snatch it to show to the camera was pretty shitty.

Like Steve Harvey screwed up on the winner last year's Miss Universe, but that wasn't as completely awful as this. It was between two "winners" not a damn team that was happy.

The last thing people and the film industry need is another generic-ass musical with people who can't even sing reinforcing white privilege.

bye LLL

Cannot believe everyone lost to La La Land for Best Picture.

Shit was a completely bland musical about white people dreams of opening a jazz club and becoming a rich actor.

Hidden Figures was fucking robbed. Fuck The Academy.

boring white people singing about their problems in LA with autotune:
"I can't open my jazz club!"
"Nobody chooses me in my auditions! Guess I have to go back to school or go back to live with mom and dad!"

boohoo.

black women put people into space.

And I'm glad Moonlight got best picture.

The LLL hype train is ridiculous.



Yeah, that's why I think it Moonlight winning instead of LLL was great.

LLL was simply not as good as Hidden Figures or Moonlight. And there was definitely not a single scene as good as when Katherine yells at everyone in the control room.

But whatever. Justice was served anyway.

Yes, but I also thought it was a hammy, forced, undercooked relationship between Emma and Ryan. It didn't even feel believable to me until the ending scenes.

and of course they didnt get banned

[stufte]

I had no idea the Oscar was an award for the most woke movie. I thought it was just about well made entertainment. /shrugs

[headwalk]

it's like eurovision. on the surface it's just a shitty pop competition, but it tells you everything you need to know about the geopolitical landscape of europe.

[stufte]

Absolutely agree Jack.

Though It's still odd to give a fuck about who wins in general. Awards shows don't dictate what I end up watching or enjoying, and they're generally a self congratulatory circle jerk.

So many great movies from last year don't even show up on the Oscar radar.

[FStop7]

Is La La Land a straight up musical romcom or does it  take any unusual turns?

[Kara]

The pop music industry is pretty upfront about being little more than dopamine pushers and rent seekers, so it makes sense that they wouldn't suddenly decide to make statements with their annual awards show.

Hollywood on the other hand...

I don't even think video games are art, let alone Hollywood movies.

I was saying that the two behave inconsistently because of the respective edifices upon which they rest.
