I went in expecting family guy in space and instead I got a really good spoof of star trek with a comfortable mix of low-brow humor and well thought out commentary. I’d honestly give it a go if I were you, Seth McFarland is so much funnier than most give him credit for.
I never said they’d do away with us, we simply won’t be part of the “economy”. The fineries of life will become increasingly limited to the haves and we have-nots won’t be considered in the metrics in the same way that some people do tolerate the ads in a game otherwise meant to catch whales. We’ll still work for our wages and spend it on our necessities but the island of what is meant for us will shrink and eventually lottery players will dream of ordering pizza instead of owning a yacht buying a nice car paying off their debts.
In mobile gaming we have an issue with whaling. A game will come out monetized beyond reason, and it doesn’t matter if 99% of players quit in the first hour, 1% of players have more money than brains and what they pay will make the game profitable. This is so effective that the play store now has no games worth playing because this is a far more lucrative business.
I see a lot of people taking about capitalism inevitably collapsing, but if all the money is collected in the hands of the 1%, products for the unreasonably wealthy will be the lucrative market. It doesn’t matter if only two people buy cars a year if the cars are sold at such a markup that it covers the annual expenses. Some my think that’s unrealistic, but we already have people who will spend a hundreds on a brick with a brand name on it. The ultra rich pay hundreds for a beige shirt that’s slightly higher quality than Walmart.
We’d be better off going back to barter than trying to peacefully pry the system from their clutches.
Facts. I’ve been posting exclusively as Postmortal_Pop on every platform I’ve been on since 2010. If someone wants me, they’d be downright incompetent if they couldn’t find me. That’s my name as much as my real name.
It’s more like “trick or treat” vs “candy or we egg this joint”.
The one is social accepted, polite, and doesn’t overtly state an intention to harm but it does imply it. The other is exactly the same, but it’s direct, no implication, just one or the other.
Another example would be “you gotta pay us for protection, you wouldn’t want anything to happen while you’re here.” Vs. " Pay up or we cut you".
My gal hates it because she’s a huge fan of the book and apparently they did the whole of it pretty dirty. One of those, “it’s fine if you weren’t hoping to see anything that made the book unique” type movies.
Wow! IMDb has bad taste…
Honestly, he’s not wrong, it does look cool and fun. I wish there were non-religious secret sects.
It felt like two highschool drama rivals inexplicably got cast in a big budget show piece. I don’t know who the characters are, but they had the chemistry and acting skills of porno step siblings.
