  Cows don’t look like cows on film, you gotta use horses.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨MKBHD - Do Bad Reviews Kill Companies?⁩ ⁨⁨7⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Reviewers aren’t (or really shouldn’t be) beholden to companies, the whole point of a review is to give an opinion on a product, and the less input into that the company has the happier I will be. At the same time, some reviewers do hold a lot of sway, and can strongly influence people’s opinions with their reviews, so there might be an argument that a negative review can impact sales. However, so what? If the reviewer is bringing up their concerns or issues with a product, that is the whole point of what they do, and their viewers will want to hear about those things (working on the assumption that people will tend to watch reviewers they think align with their own views), and would be pretty upset if they weren’t warned about the downsides prior to purchasing.

  Several games I’d have recommended have already been said, so I’ll chuck in a nod for Thomas Was Alone, incredibly moving despite the only ‘characters’ being a range of shapes.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨GB News poll backfires, as 90% of voters choose to 'rejoin the EU'⁩ ⁨⁨8⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  The original poll was locked behind a pay wall, which is arguably less representative than what they ended up with. And even with the poll limited to those paying for GB News, who one would expect to skew right politically, it showed a third of that sample would still want to rejoin.

  Pot, kettle.

  I saw an opportunity for a Pulp Fiction quote and I took it. It did require a slight misreading of your comment, granted.

  Just because you are a character doesn’t mean you have character.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨‘A Haunting In Venice’ Review: Kenneth Branagh Brings a Supernatural Dimension to His Hercule Poirot Series⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  Fair analysis. Feel like it needed to lean more into the horror side of things, although I can see that that might alienate some of the audience. Instead of all the camera angles and Poirot occasionally seeming doddery I’d have preferred if the audience experienced more of what he was seeing and hearing, make it feel more like there could be something supernatural going on.

  It’s been a while since I watched it, but doesn’t the baby come early, and their original plan was to deliver near the waterfall? I may well be wrong, mind.
