The movie is so fucking dumb. I absolutely love the avatar movies in 3d at the theatre but there’s zero reason to ever watch it at home. The movie really exists as a way to hold together wildly ambitious visual art
So I am in no position to help you but I do have a very strange and hypothetical (ish) question:
How feasible would it be to hack a monitors firmware and use it to send and receive data, assuming that the data being sent is encoded on, say, the green color channel of said monitor and you had an sdr or some specially configured device set up somewhere to help make this very specific and bizarre idea work?
So. You’ll hear no argument from me on how banal the thing is. The setting, the plot, the characters. None of it does anything particularly engaging.
But holy fucking shit this movie and the one before it were breathtaking visual spectacles that I’ve not seen before or since.
Shopping at home hardware is such a weird experience. You can ask questions and the people working there actually know the answers to the questions and can point you in the right direction.
It’s weird to interact with someone that isn’t a fucking troglodyte that knows nothing about the products they’re selling.
The last of us was great too. Not a movie still. But .
I’m cautiously optimistic. The lack of a plot in the game leaves a lot of creative room for the film and the deep lore gives them a lot to work with. Also it’s Alex garland and a24 so like. I’m in.
Tangentially related: setting up hammocks in my living room was one of the best decisions I’ve ever made. It’s so comfortable.
I fucking hate camping so much
Xi creates a TikTok account called “shit my roommate says” that ends up exploding in popularity due to the non stop verbal diarrhea and general idiocy spraying out of trumps mouth constantly. Xi has to try and manage Trump to maintain the illusion that everything is normal while also keeping the whole thing going since he’s making so much money. Trump’s narcissism and idiocy end up bringing the whole charade to a screeching halt, or so we think until the credits roll and we see that Ci never stopped posting the TikToks
My players once used charisma and magic to basically trick/enslave some generic box to participate in everything for THE WHOLE CAMPAIGN. I kept trying to kill him and when that didn’t work I tried to make them feel bad about the situation because he had a family at home that had no idea where he was and when I finally managed to kill him they just brought him back from the dead. He was a level 4 night and they were level 18 when the campaign ended

It could absolutely be a dumpster fire but I trust a24 to not fuck it up. They have a great track record and I think the whole minimalist storytelling thing is right in their wheelhouse. Time will tell though.
