Hello, I am a character artist with over 20 years experience and several game of the years under her belt.

If someone says "we didn't add girls because it costs too much" punch them in the head with their own asshole, because it actually doesn't.
The biggest cost is voice acting and dialogue entry for two cases- if your game has a lot of npc interactions and you use two pronouns.
Lets break down the art side to show you why this is a myth.

Firefly season 3 is when the show really peaks for me. Alyson Hannigan's drunken renegade Alliance Soldier character Nance Pinkerton replacing Jayne was a smart move.
It took me a while to adjust to Simon Tam's death, but afterwards River became a much stronger character imho.

Still, how good was J.August Richards as the new ship' Doctor Farley? His blood and guts pragmatism really sold the life and death situations.
Plus Wash and Zoe had some of his strongest dialogue in that season.

Plus, Mal fropped the whole slut shaming vibe too with Inara. Waaay better dynamic.

I finally connected the hidden apollo launch message in The Shining in a way that satisfies me as what what Kubrick was saying with the film, and it is relevant today.
This mistake conspiracy theorists make is that it is a confession that Kubrick himself filmed the lunar landings. But I don't think that is what he is saying. What he is saying underlines his story.

It's a ghost story without ghosts.
The film is about The Shining. Not ghosts. Not a haunted hotel. It is about the psychic powers of a small boy.

Danny is the cause of everything that happens in the film. It is all Danny.

I consumed the the entire Sequel Trilogy over two days (I work! Gimmie a break, homie.) last week and it was the first time I REALLY sat down with #TheForceAwakens & #TheLastJedi and took everything in from those stories now that the Trilogy has concluded with #TheRiseOfSkywalker
For those who know me understand my feelings on the Sequel Trilogy have been...mixed...to say the least. I did often say that my final word on the ST wouldn't be complete until...well...the ST was complete.
Before I get into the nitty and gritty of the Sequel Trilogy I want to really acknowledge something that has become so apparent to me over the last few months. Maybe this will be obvious to everyone, but me lol (wouldn't be the first time)

My simple review of Episode IX:

There are great Star Wars movies and great Star Wars films. Rarely do we get both, and sometimes we get neither.

This was a very good Star Wars movie, but it made me appreciate the brilliant film we got in The Last Jedi even more.
J.J. was the perfect guy to inject life in the franchise in VII after the prequel disaster. But he plays it too safe to have him tie up the story. The twists were just too obvious and the emotional moments were not earned after he spent a lot of the movie trying to undo TLJ.
Which is fine! You go and enjoy it. It’s a good Star Wars movie (had the right vibe and storytelling ethos).

The only thing I’m really mad about is what they did to Rose Tico. Might not have been J.J.’s intention, but it certainly has the look of him giving in to the toxic fans.

My roommate @shamshandwich and I have started a weekly re-watch through the Star Wars Saga in prep for IX. I'll post some loose observations in this goofy little thread.
The Phantom Menace:
• Jar Jar Binks is a technical triumph and the fact that ILM straight up introduced the character in dappled light is so damn bold!
• Speaking of boldness, the first two laps of the pod race are sound mixing perfection. No score. Just Ben Burtt rocking hard.
• Episode I, particularly the first half, feels the most like the Flash Gordon vibe George Lucas was always striving for. It is constantly out of the frying pan into the fire with set piece after set piece.
• The political scenes aren't actually that dull.

Star Wars was painted. Almost impossible to believe that most of the epic widescreen sci-fi images in the first 3 Star Wars films were done by 3 "Matte painting" artists. These are fake sets made with plexiglass and oil paint. Even the 100s of storm troopers were painted.
Spoiler: Those epic images in the first 3 Star Wars films were hand-painted! Back then before CGI matte paintings were used. Matte paintings typically depict landscapes painted onto glass using oil, acrylics, or pastels, and are either filmed through or added in post production
Pt.3. More of those Star Wars Matte paintings, that I am reliably informed were painted on shower doors - because they were glass and the right dimensions for widescreen. Matte paintings create "the illusion of an environment that is not present at the filming location."

A thread of books I’m reading this year.
The Entitlement Cure by @drjohntownsend is an insightful look at the way we enable people, and facing our own entitlements. A good read offering solutions to leaders, parents, and those trying to work on their own weak spots.

Originals: How Non-Conformists Move the World by @AdamMGrant
Interesting look at the social science behind creativity, dispelling some old axioms. Chapters on application of principles make this a how-to manual.
