There's nobody I'm concerned for more than the makers of the film Jack Frost. It would be much less concerning if the movie was intentionally a fucked-up movie. It being earnest and intended to be heartwarming is so much worse.

Roleplay Retcon is remaking The Snowman (2017)@roleplayretcon.bsky.social · 20h ago

A clue about our next series? Maybe!* We're remaking The Snowman (2017) with our original #TTRPG, Gunpointing! Starring @queenjulia11.bsky.social and @thedaddygamer.bsky.social, with a soundtrack by @sungoose.bsky.social! *no

Take it from a professional writer: Whom is scamming you. Whom is completely unnecessary. Nobody has ever been confused by someone saying who instead of whom and it doesn't make anything sound better.

The early Final Fantasies are so funny because they're like You Are Reckoning With the Things You Have Done And Building a Better Version of Yo ***Silly Clown Music Ride Big Bird Break*** urself Or Any Version At All And Fighting For a Better World Where You Can Love Yourself and Be Loved

I've seen a lot of "we don't want games we play with our phones, Netflix" posts, so I guess I'm in the minority because I DO want that. But, it has to be interesting and not the most boring, generic horror whose only selling point is Starring Zoe Kravitz.

Netflix thumbnail for "unhinged." first person perspective of a woman's tattooed hands reaching for a phone, which illuminates a dark room and shows a generic Murder Man wearing a bloody jumpsuit and a gas mask oh my god it's so boring also there's a storm outside

I cannot express the POWER and GLEE that coursed through my egotistical veins as I listened to geniuses talk about my game design ideas for twenty minutes

Our opinions on how to make movies into TTRPGs and vice-versa cannot be contained by one podcast also, "You can't convince young people that time exists" is my new favorite thing anyone has ever said

scenes without spaceships are unnecessary in movies. it does nothing to advance what spaceships exist in that world. what am i supposed to point at and go "what spaceship is that, i haven't seen it before, what's the name of that spaceship class..."
