Mike Vago's discussions

She was directly affected by Rogan’s behavior, so she’s addressing Rogan on how he can improve this behavior. I realize a big segment of the population has to get all riled up when a woman dares speak, but you act like this has nothing to do with her and she just up and decided to be a scold to annoy you personally.

Yeah, stop working with a rapist, stop pressuring people to work with a rapist. Where does it end? Just one unreasonable demand after another! Next she’ll expect the rest of us not to rape people! I mean come on!

How fucking delicate is this comments section? She made some suggestions about how he could do better in the future, and you’re angry about it.

Except he was her boss. This isn’t about some friendly exchange they had as friends, this is about how he treated her as her employer, in an industry where public pressure is pretty much the only thing that gets anything done.

Sure, the abuser is bad, and the person who went to bat for the abuser is bad, but you know who’s really the worst? The person who noticed. And worse, wants people’s shitty behavior to improve. The absolute nerve.

If it were most industries, sure. But Hollywood has a entire-history-of-Hollywood-long problem with not hiring women who speak out against abuse, and labeling them “difficult” or even “crazy”. And it’s not a big secret who those woman are; this is a case where you could very easily audition a bunch of talented… Read more

So you literally have to be found guilty in a courtroom before someone is allowed to acknowledge your shitty behavior?

So, some commenters are lashing out at someone who spoke out against sexual assault, and other commenters are pointing out that that’s shitty behavior. Say it with me everyone.... Read more

Still disappointed the Simpsons Crazy Taxi ripoff got pulled from the market before I got a chance to play it!

There actually is a list of movie tie-in games (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_video_games_based_on_films), but I think you can make a clear distinction for games advertising consumer products and not films, if someone out there wants to compile that list.

I didn’t know that existed! Now I want to play it!

I really want to see Ted Lasso, but it seems to be the only worthwhile thing on Apple TV and it’s just not worth getting one more goddamn service.

The movie had such a deep bench of great actors; any one of those characters could carry the series going forward.

I don’t know why I have to explain that movies can be about more than one thing.

Everything I’ve read about Stan Lee leads me to suspect that, as the public face of Marvel, he got a disproportionate share of the credit for the work the creative team did, and a disproportionate share of the blame for decisions made by the cold-hearted suits, and neither’s entirely fair. (Nor are accusations of him… Read more

Wikipedia, at least, has listed Fantastic Four as the final Phase Four movie for some time now. 

I’ve never played that one, but in college I dusted off my old Atari only to discover two of my housemates had huge collections of cartridges that we then pooled and spent a whole summer playing Atari. Between us, we had both Kool-Aid Man and Chase the Chuck Wagon, but no Chex Quest. Read more

It didn’t sound like he had much of a choice. He got caught brown-handed...

There’s just so much goodness in that Wagstaff Broadcast News episode. I think the Gene-as-Bob bit is my favorite thing the show ever did. We don’t talk about Best Episode Ever with Bob as much as we do with the Simpsons, but that one gets my vote.
