I'd wait to see if fans are still trying to port Starfield to new engines in 20 years before I start talking about my company's "best" work.
Good definition! I'll often say it is a "primary unit of cultural exchange." I consider a lot of things memes: internet memes of course, songs, scenes from movies, plot tropes, characters, basically any bit of culture that can be encapsulated and identified as a distinct entity.
Captain, I'm reading a class 5 pun off the port nacelles! If we don't stabilize the vote ratio, we could find ourselves trapped in a meme template temporal loop.
Odo ruins another fine Bajoran traditional festival by imprisoning all the children dressed as Pah Wraith for Prophetsween. In the b-plot, Sisko recreates field of dreams in the holodeck and has an emotional moment with the hologhost of Jackie Robinson, played by Tony Todd for maximum tears.
They're up on YT Music as well. I caught the tail end of the Red Rocks show when they were live streaming it and it looked like a kick-ass time! Really gave me a new appreciation for the Silver Cord as an album too.
I don't know who really got that trend going. I've enjoyed up to hour-ish long videos on more or less anything, but a few years back the first truly excessively long video I remember is Whitelight's 7 hour long overview/miniseries on Death Stranding. And to be fair, I did find that faster and more enjoyable than playing Death Stranding.
(Also I get why folks make them: more ads plus having that much watch time heavily biases the algorithm towards you so it's more money overall. And the kind of person that watches 7 hour long reviews in the background (or while sleeping), aka me, certainly help weigh the scales for super long videos.)
But also, I kind of like when shorts are like a minute long or less so I can watch one when I'm like, on the shitter and not accidentally end up with a video essay. I mean 10 minutes used to be the limit of every youtube video! Will they introduce a new, even shorter format? Bring vines or blips back?
Alright, I split the differance, I think that should make everyone happy.
Can't wait for 10 hour long reviews of Elden Ring, BUT VERTICALE AND LOOPS NOW!?!
Not enough Branston pickle, which to make up the ratio would require about half the jar I think. But then you'd have a perfect ploughmans lunch! (I'm not even a Brit, i just like a good peasant meal!)
Huh, never saw this one but in high school I had a dream just like this. I met a beautiful woman, perfect in every way, we got married had some kids, I even got some ways into middle age. Then, I was sitting in chair and noticed that my vision seemed... blurry at the edges, in a very "vignette filter" kind of way and I immediately knew I was dreaming. Woke up just as the existential collapse started. For several years after I'd try to remember her face, what our love had felt like, any of the details that had seemed so solid and tantalizing real for those few sleeping hours.
In retrospect, a lot like that Rick and Morty episode with the life simulator game. I wonder if one of the writers ever had that dream too? Brains are weird, and I haven't any dreams nearly that all encompassing since.
