As an older millennial that was a teenager for these movies, I do not remember anybody saying the prequels sucked at the time. That was social media revisionism by nerdy edgelords on social media 10 years later. Episode I is a masterpiece (and Empire is still my favorite)

Dandadan's problems as a manga come down to the fact that it's unwilling to let the central relationship develop for fear of losing its audience. What's worse is that comics that do this kind of thing end up producing neurotic fans who start to see everything as cuck fantasies.

Seeds are necessarily high energy as they’re self contained support systems so of course agriculture would focus on those. However, there are staple grains that are tubers and roots: potato, carrot, yam, cassava and in Oceania, the fleshy breadfruit and the Maya had breadnut.
Every cradle of civilization based its existence on modified grass. Corn, wheat, rice, emmer, barley, oats, all grass. Grass didn't exist until the late Cretaceous and didn't spread until the Oligocene, 30 mya. The Great Filter is grass.

People on here often ask "What is something you can give a TED Talk about?" and for me it's how Bill Clinton nuked terrestrial radio and the music industry as a whole

Actually it was the Wayans that forced the NFL’s hand to change the halftime show. The NFL used to phone the halftime shows in with groups like “Up With People” so K Wayans did In Living Color counter programming same time as halftime & beat ratings. NFL booked MJ that next year
I mean it was Michael Jackson who turned it into a live spectacle. He set the standard that other artists who came after him are trying to achieve.

obviously it’s because there was no marketing, the release was limited, and the reviews were awful, but the trades keep holding their breath for Jenna Ortega to emerge as a major box office draw for young people despite pretty clear signs that thats not going to happen
At a time when the box office is rebounding, and embracing auteur-driven fare (i.e. Christopher Nolan’s near $1.8B grossing The Odyssey) as well as originality (a three-hour documentary about a delusional, scandalous tech titan called You Can See Everything), the star studded Jenna Ortega and Amy Adams starring Klara and the Sun failed to shine with a $701K domestic opening last weekend. The movie, booked at 880 locations, posted a theater average that was less than $800. Read More: deadline.com/2026/10/klara-a…

Summary on Professor Jason Arday: “Across four formal investigations into his research papers and thesis, not one institutional inquiry substantiated the allegations of plagiarism or data fabrication against him.”

Algo que me da pena de este y los Día de muertos anteriores son las muchas ofrendas que usan IA. Yo sé que lo hacen con la intención más sincera, pero es triste que una tradición siempre artesanal la esté reemplazando un prompt que diga "chatgpt hazme una catrina estilo pixar".

This probably killed any future conservative endeavor on Latin America by revealing how direct the ties are with the US
As I reported hours ago, Flávio Bolsonaro has arrived safely in United States. The mastermind behind this operation is U.S. Secretary of State @SecRubio . From the United States, free and safe, Flávio will lead the opposition against Lula.

it’s what makes hip hop great and annoying at the same time. this genre wouldn’t be so progressive if the younger generation were in reverence to the past but also, what do we have if we don’t respect the history to some extent?
I feel like hip-hop/rap is the only genre where we dismiss our legends calling them “washed up”. You’ll never see someone call Roger Waters who still preforming Pink Floyd hits washed. Or someone like Bruce Springsteen. It’s honestly sad.

Malcolm Gladwell just published a new book and gone on one popular show after another arguing that the U.S. needs to massively expand the profitable police surveillance state. The entire argument is based on an embarrassing factual error.

For @WIRED, I spoke with Macmillan and PRH staff about AI at the rest of the Big Five. I also spoke with bestselling authors who've gone to "war" with publishers over AI use and are now demanding disclosures and threatening to leave their publishers altogether.

If you want to make money from your music, you're running a business. Businesses market their products. Before streaming, the product was a physical copy of your music. Now the product is you. Market you.

Michael Jackson and Prince were Madonna’s peers. If anyone can talk about them it’s her. They’re the Trinity of Pop. They were all even born during the same summer, all in the Midwest. MJ and Prince were addicts. Their self-destructive behavior is well documented. Sorry it hurts.
I want this white woman to stop talking about MJ and Prince talking down on them because they died and she didn’t. You aren’t better than anybody because you didn’t struggle with addiction. You aren’t better than anybody because you didn’t walk the walk they had to as black men

It’s unfortunate that some people are still saying Naoko Takeuchi hated the 90s Sailor Moon anime and its staff without showing any evidence. She expressed dissatisfaction with certain changes, but there’s no credible evidence that she hated the 90s anime as a whole or its staff

MANGA Plus関連の打合せで、現地出版社を訪問するためタイに出張していました。 現地では、漫画市場の伸び悩みや、読者の高齢化など、少し気になる話題がいくつか出ていました。 また、数年前と比べて、書店では往年の人気作品の新装版が目立つようになったとも感じました。 昨今よく話題になる日本のマンガの海外展開は、もちろん大事なことだと思います。 一方で、日本ではなぜ、この数十年間にわたって新しい人気のマンガやキャラクターが生まれ続けてきたのか。その仕組みを理解し、漫画雑誌を取り巻く環境が大きく変わる中で、どうすればそれをアップデートし、さらに発展させていけるのか。 漫画誌の編集部に所属する人間としては、まずそこが大事なのだと改めて感じました。 そのためにも、国内ではジャンプ+、海外ではMANGA Plusを、新しいマンガが次々と生まれ、成長し、読者に届く拠点として、もっと発展させていかなければと思います。

People are discussing Naoko Takeuchi's attitude and depictions in Sailor Moon again, huh? I need to remind that Takeuchi once said that she wish she could draw in cuter styles like other shoujo manga but she couldn't get out of influences from Leiji Matsumoto's sexy art.

The title makes it seem scary but I really need more people to read my favorite isekai series ever, JK Haru Is a Sex Worker in Another World
I'd love an story where the super skilled woman actually IS the chosen one but because misogyny is the people in power insisting some rookie boy is more deserving of that role. I need a movie be a full criticism on this trope. I feel this must exist I just don't remember it.
