And just know there's plenty of Marvel films I like.

Iron Man (2008), Guardians 1 & 2, Captain America trilogy, Thor (2011), Thor: The Dark World (2013), Ant-Man, Avengers (2012), Avengers: Age of Ultron, Sam Raimi's Spider-Man 1 & 2, Most of the X-Men films, Blade 1 & 2, Logan, etc. Do I need to go on?
I assume that’s just the MCU parts, and not including the involvement of the rest of Marvel movies (ya know, like the perfection of a movie and film series within a bigger series known as the Spider-Verse or the past X-Men films)
I actually do plan on eventually giving Into the Spider-Verse another rewatch to see if my opinion changes on it, to get an better understanding especially.

Not gonna lie, i cant help but notice that changing red heads into being people of color seems to be a recurring thing in modern western media.

I dont know if anyone else has noticedor if i'm just seeing things.
I’ve noticed a bit too. Granted it’s alt universe stuff and I take it on a case by case basis as to how these versions of those characters are handled as there are a number of those versions I really like (like Nick Fury and RotTMNT April). I want to see more representation and diversity in western media but I wish we could see more original or underutilized/one off characters for this instead of just taking a well established character and swapping their race or gender or what have you cuz it just feels lazy to me at times.

Apologies for the mini-rant

I didnt think Gridman would show up so early in the games plot, i also didnt expect the demo to be four chapters long. Technically 8 chapters long since the game starts you off with a route split with different groups of characters.

quick question for y'all:

For Sonic World mods...

What would you guys like to see me focus on: Cheap jokes at the expense of Zavok, or Eeveelutions running on Green Hill Zone?

Or both? 👀

Like, why specifically replace the red heads? That just makes things less diverse considering red heads make up such a small number of the population globaly, it's weird.

Eeveelutions running on Green Hill Zone.

Everyone can make a cheap joke at Zavok expense, not everyone can make a Eevee run in Sonic.

I know people are just memeing about it now but I’m just imagining putting together Samus’s gunship and Ridley and Kraid and Mother Brain and miniature dioramas of their boss rooms and I’m just loving it in my head. Maybe even a bigger put together game accurate version of the power suit

It was a surprise to everyone back then too, that game went out of it's way to use Disney films that either werent used as often like Pinochio or ones that havent been used at all like Tron legacy and Hunchback. It was cool.
There's even a treasure planet world hidden in the game files that was never completed.

So all this Lego talk earlier made me think of getting one of the Architecture sets I've wanted for years but the price is too high for what is like 30cm tall of a piece. Double that and we'd talk.

I've been wanting to get into Lego stuff like this for years but man the prices.
