  1. Looks like Hochul is going to rather comfortably beat Zeldin. New York hates it elected officials, but we hate right wingers even more.
  2. This is another license rescue that got held up, similar to their recently announced Bioshock project.
  3. I would look into some form of absentee ballot. In any case, feel better.
  4. This is the business equivalent of Napoleon invading Russia.
  5. At least the only thing the Metaverse has killed is Zuckerberg’s net worth.
  6. https://www.hollywoodreporter.com/movies/movie-news/black-adam-box-office-tops-another-slow-weekend-1235256273/ Black Adam wins the weekend at a very slow box office while OP makes significantly less than DBZ, Kaisen, and Demon Slayer, but still within expectations. Unsurprising given OP’s general middling popularity here (something I know Toei wants to fix with the…*sigh* Netflix show). Adam is still not doing anywhere near the higher level of expectations though.
  7. To be fair, anime films tend to have poor legs at the box office, with strong first weekend results then weaker followings. It's still way more money than they've pulled down prior. The hierarchy of power has made Black Adam look like less of a bonafide hit than Zaslav was presumably praying for it to be, and next week is Wakanda Forever, a film that looks like garbage, but carries enough goodwill from the original Black Panther and Chadwick Boseman's tragic passing that it will likely annihilate all comers at the box office.
  8. https://collider.com/one-piece-film-red-friday-box-office-4-million/ Quiet weekend at the movies. But still…ouch.
  9. It’s about people wondering if we should have stuck with forums.
  10. …This is why I’m debating between a Mustang Mach E or whatever the hell Dodge makes in 2024.
  11. He could have gone into military contracting instead of buying Twitter for no discernible reason and not only saved us a lot of time, but actually made money. For all of Tesla’s public bullshit, you don’t think clean armored vehicles with a low risk of blowing up when their fuel is hit might be something the gubmit would want? Then again, the Cybertruck is practically vapor ware at this point.
  12. Hey, Zaslav canceled something that wasn’t animated!
  13. You know, if he wanted people to love him…and have the extra $38bn, he should have went with the “end world hunger” plot. Fuck, $1 billion probably speeds up development of vat grown/cultured meat by a few years.
  14. If he wasn’t a piece of shit, he would never have landed himself in this situation in the first place. This is why Howard Hughes is lucky his heyday was before social media.
  15. Boomers are sociopaths.
  16. High Rise is an assured case of "So bad and blunt, it comes out the other end and is amazing." Netflix is weird because they release stuff that becomes honest to God mainstream hits in a way that's virtually impossible for other anime...while having tons of other stuff on the service that's ignored or otherwise there to fill time. It's part of why I find their adaptations interesting, because of the attention the successful ones do get. That and the complete lack of any censorship outside the self-practiced stuff from the studio itself. You just have to wade through a lot of junk in the interim. Edgerunners had CD Project Red paying for it, and the dub cast getting Gus to do Faraday. No clue about Kotaro or Komi--san, and I like Komi-san.
  17. I'm seeing ads for the cruise lines all over football, but even before the pandemic there was something off about the idea.
  18. He’s doing the Q3 conference call right now. I’ll give out the highlights when done.
  19. Yes, that is the same Adam from Adam Ruins Everything. And yes, he blames Zaslav and his fiscal chainsaw.
  20. This was inevitable following those accusations. Tiffany Haddish is for all intents and purposes radioactive.
