Giant Bombcast - 12/15/15

If your chili doesn't have beans, and you're eating over spaghetti - you're eating spaghetti. You can put cheese and hotsauce on it, and it'll still be spaghetti.

Chili has beans, and it's best eaten over elbow or some other short pasta, or perhaps cornbread muffins. Or my personal favorite, cornbread muffin and elbow macaroni together.

Overall great podcast, and it made me think they must have covered pizza at some point. New York or Chicago?

Nailed it on Skyline. LaRosa's is fine.

Clearly a matter of opinion but adore Skyline. It's one the things that excites me every time I visit Cincinnati for the holidays.

You can get it with beans.

That reasoning by a crazy person is in the link you posted.

Well hey! That's egg on my face. However, I've got no problem completely disagreeing with the very silly statement "single shot ruins movie", but agreeing that that movie order preserves the major reveals in the original movies. Read past his flawed thesis and you see much better reasoning.

Except what you described is every prequel.

Do you not understand that a prequel isn't just any movie that is set before another movie, it is specifically a movie that is set before but made after?

These alternate orders are fixing a problem that only exists if you don't understand how this works and are trying to watch them wrong in the first place. The fact that the prequels are set earlier does not mean you watch them first. You watch the movies in the order they were made and released.

The prequels don't spoil anything about the classic trilogy because they're not supposed to be viewed before the classic trilogy.

I don't know what is so hard to understand about this.

I don't....what? I must have worded that poorly. Of course I understand what a prequel is, it's right in the word ("pre-sequel"). I meant more that most prequels I can think of don't retroactively completely ruin major plot reveals in their original movies. Now, parsing my original statement, I look like a complete doofus.

The "problem" is that everyone who hasn't seen Star Wars before doesn't watch them in 4,5,6 -> 1,2,3 order. Almost everyone I know who waited until after all 6 movies were out went in numbered order (1,2,3,4,5,6) which is exactly what people are trying to prevent. Normal people don't research it before they watch them, they just think "why would I start on 'Episode 4? You don't start Breaking Bad in Season 4.'" I don't care if you do it how they were released, or with this machete order, but at least both are better than numbered order. I give the nod to machete simply because you get to skip Ep1.

I'm in with you dark10x, I grab some Skyline every time I'm in the area.

Bahaha at the random 5 seconds of Wolfenstein talk from a previous podcast spliced in between Japanese movie name translations! XD
 
What is this "big news" that they missed? I must have missed it too.

The idea that you would ever mix chilli and pasta disqualifies your opinion. Cornbread is great as a side. You can crumble saltines on top if you're feeling nasty. If your chili has beans in it, then it's a soup. It could be a good soup, but it's a soup.

Real chili has 3 basic ingredients. Beef, chilies, and time. It's about trusting your ingredients. You don't use ground beef, you use good, cubed chuck.

Does this look like spaghetti sauce to you?

Chili is best not eaten over any type of pasta. Chili has nothing to do with pasta.
 
Welp, I guess Mario Maker will be their game of the year. Jeff likes nothing else and usually they end up giving GotY to what he likes.
 
The only thing I think might be working against MGSV would be the changing state of the game, and how a lot of people feel its done nothing but get worse due to balance with microtransactions, but I feel they'll handwave that because of what their experience was, not what it could have been had they waited. It'll be MGSV.
 
I would've liked Austin to talk a bit more about Xenoblade. Did he stop playing once he got to a point he wanted for the QL?

You don't think some of them at least will have a problem with the Quiet cutscenes?

Not enough that it'd keep it from getting the top spot. I had tons of issues with that character. That cutscene made me want to stand up and yell "THIS ISNT THE SHIT I'M INTO" in case someone was watching.
