pretty cool horizon effect, like the world is being stretched over a loom. needs to be applied to 3d
Final Fantasy 7 was a fricken weird game. It was all over the place in terms of tone, you could play it for an hour every day and experience something genuinely unique each time you play it. One day you're snowboarding, one day Tifa is slapfighting the shinra lady, the next you're doing that weird rts minigame for the super materia, then you're finishing red 13's quest and seeing his petrified dad in cosmo canyon, then youre breeding and racing chocobo, then youre having a random encounter with a house or like a naked torso swinging on a pendulum, then japanese dracula joins your party, then cloud becomes an invalid from mako poisoning.
FF7 was such a wild, wild game and my biggest fear with the remake is that they'll just drop everything that doesn't fit into their hardcore cool-kid modern vision. Like I'm sure the big iconic moments will be done well, but without all the weird nonsense in between then, well, it just won't be ff7.
hey jamie!!!!
the third season of Bojack is a little worse actually. some episodes were stronger than others, but the new characters aren't great and they kinda jumped the shark with the "Bojack is a sad guy who ruins other people's lives" concept. I think a great show would have had him continue his struggles this season, but he'd have learned something and made some sort of progress. I do like the characters, though. I like princess caroline, the cat lady, and mr. peanutbutter, the dog man, a lot. I also identify a lot with Bojack's loneliness and disappointment in himself, despite not really having achieved recognizable success myself and having a drastically different personality. it's also kind of a good take on hollywood, even though that's a boring subject.
having had one good experience with an adult animated comedy, I decided to try my luck with Archer. big mistake. holy shitsnacks (pause for genuine laughter), it is awful. that's even despite its voice cast and the fact that I'm a bit of a sucker for the campy secret agent theme. it's really terrible, folks. it has the aforementioned *blurts out something adult-sounding* humor all right, mixed in with family guy style pseudo-offensiveness. but it's also really ugly, and as we've sort of established recently in this thread, that might be the worst thing about it.
thank you for the edit. we all must pay our penance due.
I'm watching Bojack Horseman, a netflix show that kind of looks like one of those Comedy Central or MTV cartoons where the art style is gritty and unusual and the dialogue has a bunch of adult-sounding things. unlike any of those shows that I'm aware of, in this show the adult-sounding things start to string together to form a coherent and likable narrative after a while. the third season comes out this week. and the deer lady is very pretty.
jamie. are you on the sauce.
