damned-to-be asked: You know I think I've figured out what your vaults experiment is. It's full of the most accepting people ever. The kind of people who welcome everything the wasteland has to offer without a hint of questioning to the how or why
a known murderous synth that has killed and eaten over half of Mojave Wasteland’s inhabitants while ruling it with an army of robots with missiles
an indestructible grandfather that strikes fear in Raiders and is basically Vault jesus
a kid who’s overly optimistic despite the fatal problems thrown at him and handles weapons better than most of the dwellers
a lady who is a radio host who has a girlfriend that’s a fucking Deathclaw
a ninja with high agility that just wants to chop some food in the diner thats all
another grandpa that’s a doctor with almost the same level of knowledge in the medical field as Noah except in the hospital he wears Dark Souls-ish clothing
Me: Huh! That does look weird.
I’ll have a look at the code, see what’s up.
I started rooting around in
the CSS and HTML to see if there was some fallback code that was messing things
up. I couldn’t find ANYTHING that would mess up the text like in the photos.
Me: I can’t find the problem in
the code. Is your browser up to date?
Client: I don’t know! How do I find
out?
Me: Well, what browser are you
using?
Client: “IBM Notes.”
Me: ….
Client: ….
Me: …What?
Google tells me that IBM notes is some kind of in-software browser. I
have no idea why he was using it.
I do a lot of these whenever a non-CGI movie comes out.
Yeah, I’m worried about Kubo underperforming. Look at Shaun the Sheep Movie from last year! If it underperformance just for not being CGI, what message does that send? That animated movies have to have X, Y and Z to be successful? That they’re a checklist? In 2012, after Pirates, Paranorman and Frankenweenie underperformed, Henry Selick’s project was put on hold.
It’s from LAIKA who did Coraline, Paranorman Boxtrolls. A solid line of films, and look at its rating on RT!
I think some might just assume it’ll be successful and take it for granted.
Please spread the word–if you don’t reblog this, find another way to promote it.
Note about movies you wanna support–the better it does on opening weekend, the longer it stays in theaters. Also on opening weekend, more of the ticket price goes to the studio, the theater gets more if you see it later in its run.
I saw it and it is a fantastic film. It’s well worth watching in theaters.
