Re: Poll: What Do You Think Of Mario's Movie Voice?

@Nerdling Hehe yeah, half an hour of Mario's voice would be more than enough before someone goes crazy. And don't get me started when they start crying about stereotypes, they would start canceling him before the movie title comes up.

Pratt will be fine, he already did a really good job in the Lego movie, where he was an average joe, and here he's going to act another one.
I'm so ready for this movie!

@Andy_Witmyer Exactly. I love Martinet's Mario voice, it's iconic. But after half an hour of hearing full sentences in that voice, a lot of people that are not Nintendo fans would've complained about it. And they won't risk an Italian accent because people would target them for cultural appropriation or something similar.
Pratt's voice is very generic, like an everyman, and it works for the character, I mean, he already voiced a character that was an average joe in Lego Movie, so yeah, his voice works. But since these days is "cool" to hate him, people are just going crazy about it, and to be honest, for me it's just stupid.

Re: Poll: So, What Do You Think Of Mario's Movie Voice?

He sounds just like an everyman, and I think that's perfect for the character. If he spoke with the high-pitched voice of Martinet, a lot of people would complain about it, if he had an accent you can bet somebody would hunt any kind of mistake in his pronunciation and make a huge fuzz about it.
I think they went the safest route, a generic American voice with no accent that can trigger anyone.

Re: Review: Let's Sing ABBA - La Question C'est Voulez-Vous

JeanPaul

Voulez-Vous as a Roger Moore era Bond theme, now that I think of it, it actually makes a lot of sense, and it would be much better than some of the Bond songs from that period.
How many people can sing at the same time? I remember Rockband Beatles four could sing but man, four singing in harmony was easier said that done, and pretty fun too.

Re: Random: Kit And Krysta Claim They Were Nearly Fired Over Nuzlocke Pokémon Run

JeanPaul

I think this was just miscommunication, and maybe even a little extra from Kit and Krysta. Players have been known to create challenges to games they have mastered just for fun, like RE4 with only a handgun or knife or any Zelda with just three hearts. We even got a game based on that principle, Super Mario Maker. I'm pretty sure the suits of the company didn't know the term Nuzlocke, didn't bother to investigate, and just said no.

Re: Feature: Resident Evil Netflix Review: Wesker Steals A Show That Lacks Bite

Ok, just finished the whole season, and I liked the series as a zombie series, but I don't see it as Resident Evil.
Loved Albert Wesker and Evelyn Marcus, I could watch a whole season of just them creating the whole T-virus.
And I just hate Jade, how many times does she has to mess it up.
I think season two can be better if they focus more on the horror theme.
