1000 year old Thunder God

I do like this character design to be honest. The lamest X2 character design so far has been the main sword girl

Xenoblade 2 still doesn't look good to me.

Also, I never watched Beverly Hills Cop. I should, seems like his career hit.
The Nutty Professor is surprisingly one of my favorites from him. Love it.

Edit:

Aww damn. Viceral's dead. Hennings Star Wars seems to be [moved to another studio].

BHC still holds up well.

The Babysitter is fun so far. The lead kid is adorable. It's dumb as fuck and got some real questionable shit, but fun.
Only thirty minutes in so shit could go real south from here.


Edit: Heading due South.

North again?
East?
The fuck is this movie?

This kid is great hope he keeps getting work.
This and Happy Death Day would be a great double feature.

Main sword girl's character design and concept are pushing me away from the game super hard.

What? Xenoblade has some trash character outfits?

What a shock.

Xenosaga >>> Xenoblade.

I'm holding out for the spoiler theory to be true, cause if it happens then Xenoblade 2 will be the best Xeno game by a good margin. I mean, we're talking "Aerith dies" level of legendary plot twists.

The Babysitter is good? Hard tonal shifts in a bunch of spots, some tone deaf stupid as hell dialogue. Good acting for the most part.

Beverly Hills Cop 1 and 2 are the truth.

Seems like video games, manga, and anime in japan are stuck in a design rut.

They need to grow(up) and evolve

You'd think they'd get bored of it at some point but so many major releases have the same motif: Teen or pre-teen in revealing garb

I enjoyed it and it's good for McG at least. The dialogue was atrocious at many points (still giving the
BLM "
joke" some side eye) but I thought the horror/comedy slapstick was entertaining.

I actually miss Monoliths PS2 era character design. Only Ziggy had a swimsuit worth anything tho.

Don't watch BHC3. Eddie really didn't want to do that one.


Edit meant 3.

Your examples are optional costumes? It's like using the swimsuits as being indicative of the character designs. Both of those characters have normal, non-crazy, costumes by default

You know, #MeToo is making me wonder if sexual harassment is why some good actresses just disappeared of the face of the planet. It also makes me think about how so many child stars come out of Hollywood *super* fucked up.

The point is that no one should be surprised when it comes to trash outfits in Xenoblade.

Personally, I'm curious who's going to inherit the Best Girl role from Melia and Celica.

to be fair, I feel like a LOT of Sharla's armor designs are like that

the other girl is still way worse because they actually take time in cutscenes to talk about how super young she is

and blade girl ticks me off because it seems she literally just exists to be a power up for the main character. it's objectifying both figuratively AND literally.
