At the same time, Morbius is due to come out tomorrow but with the amount of negative reception from the critics, I can't say that this film will fare well against Sonic 2.
It also has to compete with Fantastic Beasts 3 and The Bad Guys as well. All while with still dealing with The Batman.

Poor Morbius...

So apparently The Flash movie had been leaked. From the same leakers that gave away Spider-Man: No Way Home.

Apparently in the end, It’s a merged world of Burtons Batman and select pieces of the existing DCEU.

Notably, Zod is again alive in this setting and killed Baby Kal, with Supergirl being the Superman here.

Wondie, Aquaman and Shazam exist still so does Batfleck but in another universe.



What a trainwreck. Just as predicted.

Way to screw up Flash's first solo movie. God, it was his first ******* movie. Just let him run, fight a gorilla, discover the Speed Force and older Flashes exist, roll credits.

How could they have ****** up so much?

So out of nowhere my dad said he would like to see Sonic 2 movie with me (and he's not into video games).

So I'll show him the first one before that.
Cool you too. My dad went to go see the first one with me in theaters and being it's close to my birthday will be doing the same here with the second film. :)

The Minecraft launcher stopped working for me again, and after it updated today, even restarting my PC doesn’t fix it. Reinstalling doesn’t, either.

The issue is already on their bug tracker, I hope it gets fixed sometime soon.

In the meantime, 3rd-party launchers it is. I don’t change my skin very often, anyway…

Society has evolved past the need for E3. Most companies have found better ways to announce things, and the Game Awards has the "Family Guy Funny Moments" covered.

But also, when E3 comes around its always fun seeing new announcements one after another for a few days and I will miss that.

My employer just gave me a free phone.

They did not make me do any of the mandatory training they were supposed to before giving me a free phone.

Welp I have no idea what my protections and responsibilities with it are. Classic incompetent Walmart management, treating job training as optional as always.

I started playing Lego Jurassic world, the only Lego games ive played are Lego city, the star wars ones and the Harry Potter ones, so it definitely feels weird to see that they ended up using the audio from the Jurassic park movies as the voice acting here.

Like the audio quality for these old 90's movies kinda clashes with the modern voice acting heard with the generic npc's in the overworld lol

Lego Dimensions uses a mix of old and new audio for the playable characters.
Some are neat, but others… not so much.
K-9 from Doctor Who has all their audio taken from a single episode, to the point where when it speaks a specific line you can hear a roar from the episode’s antagonist.
It is justified in a few cases and one actor (Tom Cruise, who plays Ethan Hunt in Mission: Impossible) personally picked the lines he wanted in the game.

Use PolyMC.

Have doubts?

Consider the following:

Regular launchers?

No mod support out of the box. No high-end customization. Smells bad and makes you feel sad.

PolyMC?

Mod support, with modpack downloads straight from Curseforge, FTB, and Technic. Supports individual mod downloads from Curseforge and Modrinth. Installs loaders at the press of a button. Full customization over which JRE your Minecraft is using. Smells like freshly baked cookies and makes you feel glad.

It's definitely a weird design choice, it probably would have been less expensive to just get sound alikes.

And it would probably help them add in their gags better.

Yeah, some of the older members in the roster who use archive audio can sometimes sound grainy as it's ripped straight from the originals. Some of the early Doctors have that in their quotes, for instance.

Speaking of, which episode do these voice lines for K9 come from?

I was gonna question Wham Bam Rock being racist but looking at it... huh yeah that is quite unfortunate.

What's crazy is that Wham Bam Jewel is somehow even worse if we're talking unfortunate implications, amd that was the game that redesigned rock.
I guess Wham Bam Jewel is less human looking with the fangs and third eye? Though I think that arguably makes it even worse
