-cute game, rlly beautiful and expressive sprites tbh, just not my type of thing rlly but also so fucking short it never outstays its welcome.
-dude i remember when ppl were being sooo fucking annoying about this being delisted and after playing it i rlly don't get it lmao. like idk kinda feel this way about most "lost media", def stuff should be more accessible but also idk i don't think it was a great travesty that this was gone for a long time. played through w my boyfwend and we kept doing impressions of soyjack reddit ppl, was lots of fun
-borderline unplayable without cheats, or at least was for us as we're both v bad at games.
-tbh never read the comics till this month bc i hate the movie version sm. edgar wright retire bitch. think the movie portrays scott and his actions and his relationship w women in a rlly fucking gross incel-like way that i have never fucking vibed w. does not help that michael cera is only good at playing scary weird ppl like in magic magic or this is the end, anytime they cast him as a good guy i get so mfn geeked out.
-finally did read the comics after watching the series and i think they're both like pretty expertly done. esp in terms of characterization of knives, character is almost an afterthought in the movie where as she's rlly focal in everything else and for good reason. so much of the comic is about how everyone is looking to take advantage and manipulate her mostly bc of her age. shit made me miss old friends and rethink past actions.
-that post about infinite jest and empathy but about me and this series tbh
-why in the movie is the knee joke about the only lesbian character and how it basically boils down to haha a cismale made a lesbian cum hahahah like thats fucking weird esp considering in the comic that's a joke about envy like why was it changed to roxie edgar wright ur fucking weird dude!!
-think the series might be the better version though, think it's rlly smart in how it goes about reckoning w a problematic past and updating it for modern audiences and like how one can right their wrongs, real good shit tbh.
-i love young neil ^__^
-why tf was wallace added into the game three years after it came out lmfaooo

yoooo the show is so good i need to finish it tho, the movie was my all time fav for a good long while and i can still probably quote the entire thing bc i watched it like 200 times as a teen but as I've gotten well into my twenties the books have become my default. bryan lee o malley just on a different level
