Definitely. I still put on the ridiculous Simian Acres song from time to time.

Eh, sorry, gonna have to agree with critics that it was pretty bad. What makes it more painful is that last time with Bumblebee showed a lot of promise, but here they fell right back into spectacle over substance. We didn’t need to go right back to a world-ending threat so soon. Maybe it needed to be split in 2, so we get a separate Beast Wars movie first, then later bring in Unicron.

I never thought we’d see the Beast Wars bots on the big screen, and sadly they weren’t strong enough to overpower the suckage. Too bad.

That movie was ridiculous and I loved every second of it. I still think about that insane camera shot from the climax (you know, the split screen…).

The plot was pretty straightforward (though often rushed). I see why critics would roll their eyes at another kids movie that plays it safe like that. It’s not anywhere near the level of a Paddington or Fantastic Mr. Fox.

That said, it wasn’t really trying to be that, and was all I wanted in a Mario movie: show me you respect the franchise, add in a bunch of easter eggs and references, and be at least moderately entertaining. I just hope the eventual sequels and spinoffs aim a tad bit higher.

Looks like OP scrolled down a little too far in the user profile. There are several more from the last week, and they’re all downvoted:

Is the image you’re trying to copy/paste a webp instead of a jpeg or png? I just tested, and it quietly fails to paste a webp for me, but jpeg and png work just fine.

I think they’re referring to the storage service at sync.com, not Firefox Sync.

It’s wonky on desktop, however. The lines double up much like it does on Reddit.

You might want to read that again. It was clearly a joke.

3 of the 4 composers for Silius also worked on Hebereke, so that tracks. Part of that excellent Sunsoft sound from that era.

Hobby Drama getting mirrored to Lemmy? Excellent.

Fascinating drama, but I wish people wouldn’t link to CDNs for their images. Those links never last, and now several comparison pics linked above are gone.
