The Call of Cthulhu is another example of this. While the world is rich in lore, he failed to capitalize on this newly-created world of horrors.

No doubt he was able to craft very terrifying concept but never capitalize on any of them in his story. His best work to me is The Dunwhich Horror - but even that it doesnt really illicit any real horror to me.

The only real broken promises there was an immersive experince in the prequels since Jar-Jar was a constant annoyance in Phantom Menace and it took until Revenge of the Sith for the prequel trilogy to take off.

03.12.2025 02:08 โ ๐ 22 ๐ 11 ๐ฌ 2 ๐ 0But we live in the reality that this film exists, and is a RECENT FILM with a post-credits scene teasing a sequel that never happened because by the end of the day, it was a major failure with a whole slew of problems.
Race-swapping was one of them.
The fact it lines up with my current interests, feels absurdist. Like, I feel that the movie is but a curious byproduct of Hollywood at the time.
Parts of hollywood history that people would rather forget.
Bubsy 4D only happened because it was a joke that wasn't meant to be taken seriously. Yet people wanted a sincere, good bubsy game by taking matters into their own hands anyway.
Humans just work like that.

When you got vaporware like Half-Life 3, cracks start to show in these hype cycles.

On the other hand it's also why it feels like you have two tiny versions of yourself arguing constantly, just to do basic household chores like the dishes.

Aziz was the tip of the iceberg.
Nowadays I find The Last Airbender movie to be more of a hilarious trainwreck than something that actively pisses me off like it did 10+ years ago. The fact they took Zhao, the evil navy admiral from the show, and cast fucking Mr. Aziz from Spider-Man 2 to play him is absolute peak comedy. XD
