BotBots are GLORIOUS

A day best ignored if you're not the target demographic. Can be difficult sometimes though.

Valentine's Day. bummer.

Or you could come to canada, where bureaucracy is a publically funded art form! So garbage and used condoms trying to make a statement about something or other, not entirely sure what.

We've turned it into an art form.

You think you know bureaucracy, but you've never been to Germany.

I think a better counterpart would be "society".

Sounds like the cobra effect.

I think a better counterpart for it would be bureaucracy.

Is Verbesserschlimmerung a change that was intented to make things worse but made them better instead?

We have a similar word in english "government".

The meaning of this word is: A change that was intended as an improvement but ended up making things worse.

It's a portmanteau of "Verbesserung", which means "improvement", and "Verschlimmerung", which means "worsening".

Your new German word for today: Verschlimmbesserung.

Fortunately it's been long enough now that the possibility exists another label like Shout Factory or Arrow could pick it up and give it an updated release.

It's the same with their Dawn of the Dead blu-ray, and several others

In Volcano's case it isn't so much a case just of amazon or eBay sellers... it looks like rather than releasing it directly, Fox licensed it out to Starz/Anchor Bay, and it's subsequently gone out of print

There's Amazon sellers for you.

thought about buying volcano on bluray last night, until i saw the price on amazon: $135. the used ones arent much cheaper at $90. i know the 3p sellers can set any price they want, but come on. $90-$135 for a 20 year old movie that was only so-so?

GOt my hopes up there for a bit. Last I heard it was nebulously in 2019.

Nope, none for REmake or Zero either.

Do we have a release date?

Looking forward to RE4 on Switch, it will be my annual playthrough.

Don't call Floridans that. It's degrading to marine mammals.

Oh, the huge manatee

Anyone here ever been to the Manatee Viewing Center right outside Apollo Beach, Florida?

The manatees were extra eager that day.

Maybe they accidentally got some editorial oversight for a while or something.

And it shifted gears the season after, it's like there was a different head writer or editor or something one year

There was some random season after the cancellation that I thought was amazing, but I don't watch the show closely enough to tell you which one it was

Your unintentional typo is right. It is definitely tp-tier material.

It was never tp-tier material but I used to be able to keep it on as white noise while I'm doing something else Now, I have to switch the channel because it just pisses me off at how unfunny it is.

I don't think it's ever been very good since the initial cancellation/revival.

And still the same so-called "humor" but worse

New writers, new showrunners, fatigue. That shows had many changes over the years.

I don't know how it's possible but Family Guy has somehow gotten less funny.

Do you mean the retail price from when ToyBiz were making ML or the current price of vintage ToyBiz specimens?

Target had the entirety of the ML Deadpool Sauron BAF wave on discount. Got Omega Red and X-23 for the cost of 2 Toy Biz Marvel Legends.

How long do y'all wager it will be until Evolution Optimal Optimus shows at Ollie's in the U.S.?

Kingdom Hearts 4: The Search For More Money.

Actual lyrics to the ending theme of KH3: "I'm only crying 'cause I never dreamed it'd take this long."

somebody wins, somebody dies, Disney gets all the money ever. The End.

Please don't go into the details of the ending of KH3 any more than you have so far in the shoutbox. Thank you.

Oh well, at least it's over. Oh wait, sequel hook. Hope my grandkids like KH4 lol

Like, if I wait a decade for the conclusion, I want something better than a friendship and love generic anime ending

I like resident Evil far better because it doesn't pretend to be anything other than stupid popcorn movies.

At least Resident Evil doesn't have a chart for every incarnation of every involved and how they're also secretly somebody else (especially, somehow, the protagonist).

Kingdom Hearts gives the Resident Evil movies a run for their money in terms of convoluted plot.

Something is hidden there, obviously.

But each James Bond after the second one is apparently obligated to visit the grave of the second one's late wife...
