Given that there were 2 TV shows with the same tone, and a whole Evil Dead reboot thing, it's safe to say that Army of Darkness has gotten it's fair praise.
Super Mario Bros. - I'm sorry for Hopper & Hoskins' experiences (RIP). But between the directorial chaos, editorial saves, and constant drunkenness, they turned out a pretty solid dark cyberpunk movie that feels more like "two New York plumbers save the day" than the recent movie. The visuals mostly still hold up, the story is okay. There's maybe a few things that could be improved, but overall I don't think it's all that bad.
Twitter is transforming into X, as the site’s former bird logo has now been replaced by an official new X logo.

Unless it comes with the old fishing controller (and that controller is also compatible with the Big sections of Sonic Adventure), I'm not interested. Half the fun of fishing games is using a goofy controller.

Members of SAG-AFTRA and the National Association of Voice Actors united at San Diego Comic-Con to address artificial intelligence and how it can harm creators.
Cool. If the AI voices are an acceptable quality, cheaper for production, and faster to implement, then I'm in favor. I'm not super attached to a person or a specific voice in new animation or voice-acted media. Reducing costs and speed of media creation is a good thing.
Why should the government step in for a private business? Especially if it's one that can be done better and more effectively without humans in the loop? Other jobs get automated - weavers, construction workers, and more. We shouldn't surrender to Luddism.
I've cared about animated works, and I still care a little bit about the product/franchise/etc.. I have never cared about the specifics of the people behind the microphones, or the artist drawing it or using CGI/CAD to create it. The "human factor" is totally unimportant to me, only the end product.
One of the weirder phenomena of the low interest rate era in tech was a tendency to see companies primarily as investments. The goal was not to have a functional business, but an exit, often via IPO or acquisition. I have begun to wonder if that explains what Reddit CEO Steve Huffman has been up to lately....
The novel and the first movie are based on actual events that happened down the Jersey shore with a great white shark. Why would you regret telling something that's one step off reality? You regret telling people to actually pay attention to shark warnings and be aware of them? Or bringing attention to the very real issue of coastal predators? I just don't see the cause for regret.
