Somehow I forgot that all avatars here are Twitter-style circles now. Even worse than being confined to squares. Sometimes I reminisce about the old IPBoard where you could have a rectangle as long as you needed it to be for avatars.

Back to work tomorrow after a week off and I've already been put in for extra hours without asking. They really don't want me to have a life outside work anymore.

I'm sure that this would've won a ton of awards if it was a standalone short instead of being part of Spider-Man 3.

its wild that we're getting two whole sonic films released between mainline sonic game releases

Advance 2 being written off as "hold right to win" does the game a massive disservice. Whilst you can get through almost all of Leaf Forest with that mentality and make significant progress in the other levels by doing just that, the game is constantly pushing you to do more than that. You're always being shown extra paths and item boxes that you miss if that's how it okay the game. Making the right split second decisions, slowing form to platform effectively and knowing how to use tricks and jumps to keep your speed high are all crucial to getting the most out of the game. Crying that the levels are all laid out like this "\" is missing the point terribly. The levels do include a lot of downwards slopes but that's only used to facilitate moving you forwards, and the physics work wonderfully.
I ain't gonna defend the method of accessing special stages though. Fuck that shit. These levels are not designed are any kind of exploration.

there's probably an alternate universe where Egoraptor never started Game Grumps, kept all his time and energy in his animations, and landed an Adult Swim cartoon or three by now

Christopher Young's score for Spider-Man 3 was so good at emulating Danny Elfman's sound that for years I wasn't even aware that the composer changed between 2 and 3 until I noticed it pointed out on Wikipedia. I wish Iron Man was that lucky, with the composers for IM2 and IM3 emulating Ramin Djawdi's sound and melodies in a similar manner rather than doing different things entirely.

k, so...its may now. we're in prime territory for a sonic game announcement between now and the end of june. If we get nothing out of these next couple months then maybe covid really did delay things on Sega's end.

There's rumors that the AMC theater near me might be closing down permanently which sucks because the last movie I saw there was Sonic and I kinda wanted to watch Sonic 2 there as a bookend kinda thing once everyone was vaccinated. But what also sucks is that the Starbucks and Best Buy on the same street also closed down recently so I'm just feeling like
«video» Still don't have my own car right now so having places like that within a 30 min walking distance (or 15 min bike distance) was nice.

I just put 2 and 2 together that when Sonic raced Sam Speed in episode 1 of Sonic X, Speed called the highway they were racing on "his" highway. ...
does that mean we got a Speed Highway cameo in episode 1

Disney's doing all these live action remakes of already-loved animated movies when the chance to shine much needed light on Atlantis & Treasure Planet again is right there

I'm surprised Sega didn't take the near-buttonless control style from Secret Rings (auto running with charge-jumping, etc) and make mobile games out of them. Like full fledged point A to Point B style stages instead of endless, with maybe a small plot thrown in too. Gyro controls could've been replaced with screen swiping, and maybe one onscreen button for the charged jump/homing attack etc.
«video» Like heck, I could see this working on a phone; would be more dynamic and a step up from what we get in the Dash games imo.

welp, time to go back in time and tell my kid self not to give up on getting into the industry and to keep on honing my animation skills (which are super rusty/ non-existent in the current timeline) until this exact day at this exact time in 2021 when this tweet came out...of course past me won't know what Twitter is but I'll just be like "you will."

I know every generation will say "man, cartoons back in such-and-such date were unreal" but man... thinking about 2002-06 cartoons just hits differently for me. Every channel just seemed to be firing on all cylinders with hits coming out left and right.
Of course a lot of legendary shit came out before and after but... there's something about a time when Codename: KND, Code Lyoko, Fosters, My Life as a Teenage Robot, Kim Possible, Danny Phantom, and the mf og Teen Titans (to name a few) were all airing at once and I just get dizzy with glee

Gettin' real tempted to get a Switch Lite now that the blue color exists. But I really don't wanna buy one only for nintendo to announce a Pro months later.

10/10 level design and engaging gameplay. Creative use of all of Sonic's unique abilities to create an interesting platformer with high speed gameplay. Can't wait for this in HD 
«video» I don't dislike Colours. But it's got some pretty naff levels never worth playing.
