Before I begin, I'd like to recommend Late Night with the Devil if you haven't seen it. I went to spite the anti-AI fuckos, but it was an entertaining movie on the whole, so it was worth the price of admission. And yes, the AI stuff was barely on screen for a few seconds and most people wouldn't even be able to tell, so people are pissing their pants about a giant nothingburger.
Some retard is perplexed by the failure of such things as the live action Halo movie (I have to assume he's talking about the show as Forward Unto Dawn is 12 years old) and blames streaming and not that they made Master Chief into John Halo, gay cuck and crying pants. Bob tries to show off how smart he is and blames the fans.

First off, the guy was referring to the proposed Halo movie from well over a decade ago, at the height of its popularity (at one point it was to be directed by Neill Blomkamp with special effects from Weta; it didn't pan out but the effects work went to other Halo stuff later).
Second, holy shit sometimes I wish Bob would get hit over the head with a shovel. Arguing that those creating an adaptation should instead do nothing to court the fans and shit on them at every opportunity is such a goddamn stupid take. Need I remind you yet again that fans are the ones that engage the greater public, and without a happy core, you have no wider audience.
Third, I'd be curious to see how much any of those numbers stack up over the course of the coming year, or in the future. Sure, people watch something new when it's airing (as well as anything that gets relentlessly advertised), but how many will watch it for the first time next year, or the year after? And how many of these are still getting completely trounced by people's umpteenth rewatch of The Office? Methinks the performance isn't nearly as good as Bobby implies.
A producer at GameSpot went to PAX and thinks that the public gives two shits what happens at PAX.

No one has ever argued that the gaming public isn't diverse; that was literally the entire point of the #NotYourShield campaign from early GG, minorities decrying lefties using their race or sex or sexuality to bash what they perceived as a homogenous straight white male group. What people are complaining about is forced diversity pandering that comes at the expense of an entertaining game. I'm sure you know that, you're just being a disingenuous cunt to score internet points.
Bob laughs about Trump not being able to find someone to help him with his ransom bond.

Y'know, a rational person would question how the Obamas got so wealthy and connected post-White House that they could call in favors and post a half billion dollar bond. Hell, a rational person would question how Democrats in general seem to end up quite a lot richer after their time in office. Bob is not a rational person.
Disney introduces Infinity Gauntlet themed Minnie Mouse ears. Tyler Freshcorn, real name Embarrassment, wants to consoom and defend Thor: Love and Thunder at the same time!

The difference, Embarrassment, is that
the Snap didn't happen in the real world. If it did, this would be just as tacky and tasteless as Taika's retarded ice cream gag.
Someone talks about Marxism in a way that doesn't please Bob.

Two things:
1. What the fuck is "small-m marxism?" I have literally never seen anyone not capitalize the M unless they were a weirdo that only typed in all lowercase.
2. Is Bob legitimately arguing that the Cultural Revolution was in fact a
good thing because it was actually a progressive movement led by intellectuals? And not, y'know, a bunch of fucking retards screwing over their country repeatedly because they were too stupid to realize the consequences of their actions?
Just when you think Bob can't get any dumber, he praises fucking Chairman Mao and his genius. Christ almighty, have mercy on my soul.
I'm skipping over all the Disney sperging, but I wanted to pluck this one out in particular:
Black Panther is the definition of racial pandering, which is why it was as successful as it was (not to mention it dropped at the height of the MCU's popularity). Black people turned out in droves to a thinly veiled we wuz kangz movie, inspiring them with its timeless messages of "the proper way to decide who rules is whoever wins a fistfight" and "Africa can only be made into not a shithole only through the existence of a fictional super metal."
And calling it "objectively one of the best Marvel movies quality-wise?" Fucking
please. The story was weak and formulaic, riddled with plotholes, the setting was retarded, the characters ranged from milquetoast to annoying, the villain was awful, and the CGI was abysmal in multiple places. Pointing to a Best Picture nomination as evidence of its quality is also fucking laughable; remember that that was the year they were debating a "Best Popular Picture" award so that Black Panther could get an Oscar that way, and it was due to the backlash to that decision that they threw it a pity nod that anyone with half a brain knew it would never win.
Really, all Black Panther shows is that black people are happy to be pandered to with kangshit and capeshit, regardless of how good it actually is. If you consider that a mark of quality, more power to you, but personally, I'll stick with something better.
