It was a damn good quicklook.

Even as someone who has started to get kind of tired of Marvel movies, I think people have become too accepting of the fast food comparison. They're big budget, very good at what they do (which happens to be something that was/is unique in the world of cinema), and combine a basic formula with a consistent attempt to evolve and surprise.
Things like the McNugget comparison seem to come from a combination of two things: one, people are more sensitive to the ways in which Marvel movies tend to diverge from the template for traditional drama and depth in movies (probably a bad way to word this, but hopefully you know what I mean here - think of the "not real movies" criticism); and two, a massive amount of them have been released.
But in reality, you don't call every movie that doesn't intellectually stimulate you a McDonalds #8 (or whatever McNuggets are), and the food equivalent to the Marvel movies would be something much higher quality.
And yes, I realize that the thing I tackled here probably didn't need the paragraphs I dedicated to it.

I can't believe loads of people actually sent them postcards.
That sounds like a step down tbh

Cool, a job that lasts for six weeks
Not that there was any doubts but Abby really is the best.
Also, I just sent her that on Twitter but I might as well post it here...
Everybody should watch "Long way round", the 2004 documentary with Ewan McGregor where he goes around the world (From London to New-York going east) on a bike with his best friend. Fucking amazing film.

That's up to the person in that job though.
Freddie Prinze Jr. was there for 4 years!
Giant Bomb |31I Why are game people so weird?
7 years ago Dave shut down the Real Message Board for the same reason - Vinny should have known better.

Pretty good QL too. The End Is Nigh doesn't have the same appeal to me as Super Meat Boy did though.

Weirdly I'm more attracted to it than I was with Meat Boy. I own that game on 3 platforms but never got past the second world because I can't stand games that grade you on performance after a level.

Not as a writer, he was there for about 6 months as a writer, left, then came back as a director.
Seemed reasonable to me.

While Dan loves wrestling, even he knows that would be a terrible job. He's probably fine with being the occasional heel and just knowing a bunch of wrestlers while also being a fan instead of actually getting a job with them.
Moment of the Year on the Beastcast.
I love listening to Jeff talk about his gaming hoard. I have nothing near his collection, but I still recently made the decision to stop my Edge subscription because the container I kept them in was full and I didn't want to start on a second container. If my house had a third bedroom I would like to have them all out in a bookcase, but sadly it doesn't.

I was going to buy one today when I go downtown. What's the address to send it to?
Honestly, they're doing the world a service by encouraging people to actually send postcards. One of these days, one of those people is going to have a job interview, have a sudden realization that they should probably send a thank you note, and then remember those postcards they bought to get a kiss on the cheek from Jeff.

Can someone clarify or confirm what Dan did with his second PS4 (he talked about it briefly on last weeks beastcast)? My daughter plays a lot of overwatch and I want to upgrade her to her own PS4 and wouldn't mind avoiding two ps+ subscriptions.
Bakalar will never forgive you for this.

Good to know before I listen to the Beastcast. I think it's incredible how good WW is when the other recent D.C. Films are so bad.
Beastcast reminded me about Shadow of Mordor being game of the year in 2014. That is still insane to me.
The slowmo in that movie almost killed it for me.

It's a fun game, and it's GOTY status isn't really a surprise given it had a genuinely innovative mechanic that felt "next gen" at a time when most other games felt like last gen games with better graphics.

A friend of mine made me realize I'd been thinking I was the wrong age for like eight months.
It's all in the OP.
I knew when I flicked thru the art book that game with the P4 preorder before I began playing, and saw him with some creepy expressions. Spoiled before even starting.

you're goddamn right
also the nemesis system was badly designed because it didn't do anything if you were good at the game
