bruh I’m just finding out Mexico has had an extremely hard and down bad affection for Gwen Stacy since the 70s…

…Mexico is the reason for all the Ghost-Spider art we get today

5. Nessa's reveal in Pokemon. It's no secret I hate Pokemon fans, but that day I truly hated Pokemon fans like no other. For some reason they have to keep collecting all 151 forms of racism. If I wanted racism, I'd just go to the KKK. Oh wait, there's no difference

So, I've changed and Sonic in Mario Kart Crossroads is not a bad idea.
We had Pac-Man earlier, so it won't be a problem to implement him.
(Gosh, why still talking about Mario Kart Crossroads)

So, I'm gonna say that every 3rd Party video game character can join Mario Kart roster like in Smash. No buts and excuses.

Oh man, this whole Disney-Pixar Turning Red situation is really turning in to a fiasco if this turns out to be true.
Oof.. that's gonna suck for my friend who wanted to see it in theaters

Disney/Bob Chapek should consider rescheduling Pixar's 2022 films in a similar fashion to how Marvel Studios had to reschedule their entire 2022 film slate. Let Turning Red take Lightyear's spot and give Lightyear a new date.

4. The Game Awards. It has sucked ass every year, rewarding the basic and ****ting in the unique. Award season just sucks ass in general. if I wanted to see lots of corporate [noun] [verb]ing, I'd just watch [not appropiate for Smashboards]
Fans: "We want to see stuff like Soundtrack of the year medleys, PS4/Xbox/Switch demos of games coming out, less ads, less big company bias and bigger announcements!"

Geoff and his team: "Nope. Now you are gonna get 100% more anti-vaping ads sponsored by a random streamer!"

Fans: "The ****?"


Oh man, this whole Disney-Pixar Turning Red situation is really turning in to a fiasco if this turns out to be true and I am sure Chapek will have a lot to answer for this.

EDIT: To further add this, I do feel for all the people that had worked on the film and I am aware of how much they want their film to be in theaters. But then again, we are still in a pandemic and its really hard to say what will happen this year.
It's a shame cause Turning Red was the first Pixar film I wanted to see in years in the theater.

That sucks.

This really sucks.

Plus, like dezeray112 said that Lightyear could be pushed to new date.
I'm kinda happy that Lightyear movie has realistic aesthetic similarly to Smash Brawl.

I will say though, considering both E3 and TGAs are hosted in the west, they tend to have mire of a western focus if anything, so yeah they're gonna be a bit biased torwards big western game companies.

That said, that doesn't mean that we need 500000 zombie shooter game reveals and nit much else in between.

E3 always makes a lot of suprise reveals.
No one expected Kazuya to be in Smash.

That's because all companies tend to do their own thing on E3 as opposed to sharing time like TGAs. E3 has their own set of unique issues that makes me wonder how they survived this long.
They do surprises.
Surprises are very effective acts that can bring a lot of people for attention.
For example, they unexpectedly announced Mario Party superstars and everyone was excited that Nintendo remade the original trilogy of Mario Party on N64.

Encanto had some good songs, story dragged in certain places. Grandmother felt... comically mean.
I think the point was she was expecting everything to be perfect, she wanted everything to be perfect. Its not so much Comicly mean considering it happens irl.
That was pretty clear from Mirabels argument with her near the end

She saw her grand daughter having fun and literally ran up to the house to tell her to stop being a normal person, that’s comically mean in my book. She could’ve been done better, even if they had a good idea for her character.

That reminds me, I need to watch Encanto as soon as I can. Along with a couple of other things.
Maybe on Monday…

sounds like you didnt watch far enought because lthe grandmother literaly blamed her for everything that went rong ranging from making her big sis cry, which wasnt her fault, Bruno running away, which wasnt her fault, the familys powers going away, which 100% was ALL the grandmas fault

I finished it, but even though I understood what they were going for the character, she felt over the top in how she was mean. I also think that not caring about Bruno when he ran away is kinda odd, even with her perfection obssesion.

I mean, if I have a profectionest for a mom that only saw the worst because you were perfect enough, Id run away too. he did say " ...Because Im Bruno and everyone expect the worst"

On the Encanto talk, i've been taking the opportunity to watch the Disney Animation Studios films (At least the ones on Disney+, Make Mine Music being the only one absent)

I've only got a couple left to go, and then I'll rank em all (except make mine music of course, cuz again, not available)

This might sound crazy to some I geuss, but there are people out there in real life who are far meaner then Maribel's grandmother.

At least her toxicity comes from misguided love.

She did care about Bruno though. That's why she was so emotional when she saw him again. He just didn't seem to think she cared about him. Hence why he was so surprised when she welcomed him back so warmly.

Besides, Bruno was an adult when he left, old enough to take care of himself. He wasn't some small child running away from his parents.
