That's my thing with aliens too. It's just more of scifi to me than 'horror'. I know it's a both but I still think scifi first. Like they said though, who really uses imdb anymore. It's been shit since they shut off the discussion forums because people were shitting on the movies too much and they didn't like that.

When you stop to think about it, it's really an ill-conceived trivia question because it's less about knowledge of the horror genre than it is about grokking the culture of the IMDB as a website -- what people like there, how it breaks down genres, how popular it really is. Something more objective might have worked, like asking which horror movies were the highest grossing of some year or decade.

I still use iMDB every day because I want to check other works by same directors, actors etc. I often check shooting locations because sometimes they list full addresses. I can then open Google Maps and go sightseeing. I don't miss the message boards because they were censored to shit. 30% of posts were always deleted and it didn't help that they were based on nested layout, which has always been garbage.

Do they make that much money of youtube ads for them to censor and reupload as to not get age restricted? I figured all their cash was from patreon.

I often wonder how much money these people make. Having seen 'big production companies with real estate' on youtube be absolutely shamed by how much a white dude playing minecraft makes compared, I always feel like those who treat youtube like a proper job make way less than even random streamers.

Then again, if they all live near the offices, live modest lives etc., surely they don't need much more than a livable wage. It's funny thinking back to the first full time streamers, not realizing that 'full time' starts at 'can pay rent and food'. That ain't saying much for most people, but then you see people with 500k subs make 5 times minimum wage. It's hard to get a feel.

A streamer is just a single person sitting in front of a PC. Unlike RLM, they don't need to rent a big studio, let alone a building, or buy "prosumer" equipment. RLM often complain about the cold in Milwaukee, so add energy bills to that. The big room with all the sets is probably impossible to warm up.

In case your searches failed, should you have made them, certain hero/ines preserved some favorite discussions [on more than one site iirc] -- here is an example | A

I pirated and played like 2 hours of that retarded new justin roiland game so I could view the RLM Spookies commentary. The game sucks ass but was worth playing the first two missions for the rlm content.

Is anyone here going to stand up for Joe Quesada, just to go against Rich, or is there hope for this thread still.

I wouldn't hold your breath. One More Day is quite possibly the most despised comic book storyline of all time.

EDIT: I seem to have missed the point of your post, which I guess highlights the growing Oppositional-Defiant Disorder of this thread. Who knows. There's a lot of retardation floating around at the moment.

And the only counter to it is that the comic industry seems hellbent on putting out stories that are even worse.

I mean... Paul. Fucking Paul almost makes us miss OMD.

But to quote SFDebris, "why is the character you put on children's underwear making a deal with the Devil?"
