Always suspicious of anyone who does.

  1. Anything that's bad news is demoralization. Don't complain.

  2. Everything the enemy does is demoralization. Don't complain.

  3. Looking it up yourself is a proven redpill method.

Yay, supporting compulsive-gambler Ohtani!

Throw another staffer under the bus to save your own ass, Ohtani! Totally won't bite you Pete-Rose-style later!

This is normally where I'd point out that Sentai Filmworks and HiDive exist.

But I'm sure this place will find something to hate about them too.

This will age like milk.

I swear some people HOPE we lose.

There are three Constitutional requirements to run for President.

None of them refer to criminal history.

Still voting Trump.

If it fosters enough of an obsession with traditional animation to result in the next Hideaki Anno, I'm all for it.

Yeah, in the early 2000s.

Robin himself was a strong advocate for it. He was a HUGE Eva fan. That figure you see in One Hour Photo? It came from Williams' own personal collection.

However, given the time period, while Williams would have been amazing as Gendo Ikari, I'm also certain he would have been the ONLY good thing about any such adaptation. But he himself would have treated the role and the property with all the respect it deserved.

There are reports that he even submitted a demo reel to voice Gendo in the Rebuild movies, but the role went to the guy who already had it, the great John Swasey.

And with how long it took for that last Rebuild movie to come out, and with Williams' dementia diagnosis driving him to suicide in 2014, this would have ended in some very Eva-befitting tragedy.

We should all count our lucky stars that Alita: Battle Angel was as great as it was. Lightning in a bottle, that one.

This is also why I hope Evangelion NEVER gets a Western adaptation.

The best time to do it was when Robin Williams could have played Gendo. And that's gone now.

Yet all I can think about is what they did to Ed's dub actor, Vic Mignogna.

Reminds me of the best way I've heard to stop India's phone scams.

Blowhard US 'presidents' have threatened warfare over cyber-'hacking' since Jimmeh Carter. It's time for one to walk the talk. The Indian sub-continent has lost its 'civilization' pass.

Tell Apu-Stan they have one week to shut down the scam-centers: If it doesn't happen, destroy their internet capability in the most visible, kinetic fashion.

The week after that, do the same to their telecoms: The week after that, lights out, country-wide.

Welcome to 1840, Patel.

This is exactly how Herschel Walker realized he had multiple personality disorder.

It was only when he retired from football, and his "warrior" side no longer had a healthy outlet, that he started lashing out at others.

Thankfully, he was able to get the help he needed, and is a great guy today.

As you probably know by now, that was taken directly from the BTAS episode "Heart of Ice," still regarded by many as the greatest episode of the series, and THE example of a successful character re-invention.

Here's Literature Devil talking about it.

I first heard of him because of Vic Mignogna.

God, I hope it's not true.

<redacted>? Just say it. TallestSkil keeps saying it and nobody will ban the guy.

Maybe if they did, he'd finish that 1000-plus-page book he says he's writing, instead of ranting and raving here.

I know how the story ends.

Civilization is completely ruined. Humanity is sent back to the Stone Age. Eventually, thousands of years later, humanity comes back to present-day tech levels, but this time it's women oppressing men. The sexism is reversed.

This is not a joke. This is actually what happens.

Protestants are more on your side than Catholics?

Now I'm tempted to rub this in the faces of anyone calling us mere "prots".

This is the TV network that owns Sentai Filmworks, by the way.

I hate to rain on your parade, but a drop of this size happens to EVERY new show, regardless of quality. People tune in to see what's new, a chunk don't tune in again. That's why the most-watched episode of a show is almost always the very first one.

Frankly, I'm surprised--and saddened--that it's not a much bigger drop.

Besides, total viewership doesn't matter to advertisers. What matters is the 18-49 demographic number, and where it ranks among others of the day.

For example, The Five on Fox News Channel gets three times the total viewers of, say, AEW Dynamite every Wednesday, but ranks far lower on the chart, while AEW's demo ranking beats everything but the NBA and NHL playoffs, despite only having 1/3 of the total viewers of The Five. That's why AEW gets ads for cool shit and The Five gets ads for catheters.

Watch the demo number, not total viewers.
