You mean The Emoji Movie ISN'T going to go down as a timeless classic?! But I was getting my hopes up for a sequel where the emoticons wage war on the emojis because people forgot the emoticons exist and want revenge!
Emotional story telling that resonates with viewers? Nah let's copy illumination and just advertise the shit out of something "servicible".

Dust off Wreck it Ralph's script while you're at it.

Dreamworks has had a few decent CG movies that I think will age pretty well (some of the Kung Fu Pandas, How to Train Your Dragon) but yeah a lot of throwaway comedy stuff too. Not as bad as Illumination though.
 
The Kung Fu Panda and How to Train Your Dragon movies seem to enjoy some sort of critical and financial success but utterly fail to really enter the cultural zeitgeist.

Dreamworks is getting that Netflix money now but Captain Underpants was really good.

Laika made a wish on a monkey paw to produce the best movies nobody sees.

Everybody should see Kubo. It's on Netflix now if you have it. Definitely their best film since Coraline.

Now what's the next step in your master plan?
I was mixed on Kubo. Its incredible looking with a really good soundtrack and art style but I thought the story was basically a giant red herring until the ending. It could have worked but I didn't feel they handled it all that well.

Yeah that off screen footage had me salivating. Its what I've been waiting for from a Monster Hunter game for years and years now.

So I finally finished The Untold History of Japanese Game Developers, Volume One.

I got it for free years ago and it was bugging me that it was the only thing of significant age left on my Kindle, so I started reading it from where I left off in the bathroom every night.

I was 8 percent of the way through it...a 530 page book. It took me MONTHS to do it this way, but at least it kept me from buying a few hundred bucks worth of One Piece at the rate I was going!

This book is...weird. The author really, REALLY loves Japanese games if you couldn't guess. That's not the weird part. It's his undying love for unreleased content (and continually bringing up the law passed a few years ago about anything resembling child porn needing to be destroyed, which comes up a lot) and some other interesting quirks that come up in every interview. Of which there are almost 40 of them. Some of which are LONG. A couple of times I sat down going, oh, I'll just finish this interview with this obscure figure of gaming...oh, it's eighty pages long, my leg will fall asleep.

My kindle now thinks I take forever reading because of this book. Four hours to complete this chapter. No, more like ten-fifteen minutes. It's also a very front loaded book as the interviews tend to get less and less interesting as they go along.

Free is free as they say, but man, would I like that time back I could have spent reading One Piece...I don't know!

I also have another volume of Baccano to read.

So, I had him remember us by showing that voice clip of him saying ToonamiGAF.

Also took his time with all my fumbling just trying find that YouTube clip.

Maybe he really is that chill of a dude.

At least I told him he was the best in the world as I walked away or something like that.

Representing ToonamiGAF. My man!

Splatoon 2 is indeed a great game. First time in forever I stayed up until dawn playing a new game. Salmon Run is too addictive and the single player is even better than it was before.

Bane? Get them on board, I'll call it in.
American Beauty was a long time ago.

It was only slightly dated when this episode came out (two years).
But yeah, a lot of old Family Guy has NOT aged well. Especially in comparison to old Simpsons. So much classic material.
