Man, I will take being compared to GQux Challia over any version of Scirocco as a compliment.

I would play this campaign.

And also the sequel campaign where the post-feudal socialist society built by compromise between the capitalist and communist factions have to fight fascism.

Just spent legitimately ten minutes looking for a key card I dropped in this hallway

I'm thinking either south or southeast Asia? India, maybe Vietnam or Thailand. But I'd bet India if I had to narrow it down to one guess.

Reading the rest of that thread, apparently Stewart has been on the "vaccines cause autism" train since 2005, so I guess he had some crank views even at the height of his cultural relevance.

I thought he was great 20 years ago, then his first episode back on the Daily Show in 2024 was almost entirely "omg look how old Biden is".

I don't know if he lost the plot over the years or he's always been this way and it just wasn't obvious before, but he's certainly not worth listening to now.

Gundam Wing, of course, remains utterly batshit in basically any context, but a good time none the less. It's been many years since I watched Endless Waltz, and I honestly don't recall if I've ever watched it subbed before, but it was a nice addition to round out the night.

The 10th anniversary short looks shamelessly fluffy, like nothing more than an excuse to spend some time with these characters again, then shows that they're still living in a shitty world where bad things will absolutely happen to you if you don't take care of each other. It works really well.

It felt... like IBO, honestly. Not like there were 1:1 parallels with anything, just that it felt like a similar story of characters from a variety of backgrounds coming together to make their way through a shitty world as best they can. It's ultimately optimistic, without being naive or saccharine.

Okay, that was actually good? Definitely felt like a compilation movie where a bunch of stuff was very obviously cut out in the edit, but overall still pretty enjoyable. It got across the characters and the bones of the story just fine.

I'd absolutely watch a full version. Hell, I'd play the game.

About to watch Urdr Hunt in theaters. From everything I've heard, my expectations are rock bottom, but I can't pass up the opportunity to see it for myself.

Besides, it's a double feature with Endless Waltz, so won't be a total loss in any case.

A photo of a parking lot at sunrise. It is very blurry from condensation on the outside of the window, but you can hazily see the bright sky with some clouds lit up pink by the rising sun. Below that is a parking lot with some fuzzy cars, and on the right a Comfort Inn with its sign brightly illuminated.

The same view at sunset, the condensation gone this time. The parking lot is much clearer, but it's still just a parking lot.

The same view at night. The sky is pitch black and a streetlight on the left side of the frame is bright enough that it's washing out the rest of the image.

That's how you get things like a scene about reconciliation between characters who've ended up on opposite sides of an ideological conflict despite their friendship on a personal level, as represented by two dudes kicking a skyscraper clean off its foundations. On foot, without their giant robots.

The genius of G Gundam is that it takes its emotional stakes completely seriously even while its aesthetics are somewhere between Saturday morning cartoon and pro wrestling.

It's pure camp, but doesn't wink at the audience over its own ridiculousness, it invites you to come along for the ride.

Trying to roller skate uphill is already a powerful metaphor, but doing it with ice on the ground takes it to a really artful place. I commend their commitment to the bit.
