#shameless cash grab

[koroleva-nazyalensky]

Between the Wiggles making a guest appearance at a rap concert and the Blues Clues Movie, the early 2000s preschool fandom is THRIVING and I’m LIVING FOR IT

#blues clues #Steve #Joe #Josh #Blue #the wiggles #I can’t believe I lived long enough to bare witness to this glorious crossover #I’m so happy #you don’t understand #no way home #blues clues no way home #well technically they’re canonically cousins so no multiverse necessary #but same vibes #iykyk #Jenna rambles #ALSO ITS NOT JUST PRESCHOOL SHOWS??? #that’s so raven came back as did the proud family as did icarly like whaaaat #what a time to be alive #tv producers were like they’re having it rough out there let’s give them their comfort shows back in some capacity #shameless cash grab #maybe #do i care though? #no

I genuinely don’t understand why they would make a movie based on true events that everyone already watched unfold not even a year ago.

#hot take #tubi #johnny depp #amber heard #shameless cash grab #who okayed this? #depp v heard trial #objection hearsay #the actors seem more like impersanators than actors really #smh

Love how the Transformers fandom created the concept of seeker trines. We took Starscream, Skywarp, and Thundercracker, gave them very distinct personalities, and assigned them a very complex emotional bond. The actual nature of that bond varies depending on who you ask, but everyone agrees it is spark-deep and very special.

We did all of this for three characters that probably only exist because some suits at Hasbro (or Takara-Tomy) in the 80s were like hmmmmmmmm how do we sell the same toy three times and get 3x the profit out of one character design

How in the world has it been less than 24 hours since that new SDX hair dropped and there’s already a minor mesh edit of it locked behind a 3-week Early Access period.

The original was literally free why are you charging people to access a slightly longer version of it?

Dune 2 was good, but can we PLEASE end this 2 movies to tell one book's story trend. Like just make a 4 hour movie and do it all at once. I have no issues with changing the story to do so either.

#i realize it is all completely about money but still #remember when movies were about telling stories not just a shameless cash grab? #dune part 2

Eventually when I forgive Paramount for making more Star Trek I’ll actually be interested in what’s happening in the post-2005 era

but that would require me to forgive them

#trek is a closed canon it ended with ENT’s ending in 2005 #that’s it! that’s the end of the story! all the rest is a shameless nostalgia baiting cash grab

[caernua]

when are they going to STOP

#how is there funding for these endless crossovers do people actually pay for those fucking outfits??? #i’m so goddamn sick of this it’s so shameless #you really are beating a dead horse and jumping on the back of a beautiful game #to catch another cash grab while you couldn’t be bothered to give the protagonist #that the fans have grown attached to for two fucking years a proper ending!!! #i’m so fucking mad i’m sorry but like. i thought they would stop this shit with the final chapter #txt

I feel like I’d be more on board with a lot of the g3 monster high redesigns if they simply made new, different characters

And I know that that defeats the idea of generations of dolls but it just feels a little forced and so different from the goth alternative style and attitudes of the originals and most of g2

#like if they want to have more diverse dolls make new characters #where these attributes actually matter to the characters and aren’t just a shameless cash grab #monster high #monster high discourse #monster high g3 #monster high generation 3

Taking the little one to see The Little Mermaid 💜💚

#sure live action remakes are shameless cash grabs #but my daughter is vibrating with excitement about seeing real mermaids #and that is a joy you cannot replace #cat rambles on main #adventures in mom stuff

on the one hand this is the pettiest thing I’ve ever blocked someone over. on the other hand I genuinely, sincerely believe that saying gen 9 is your favorite should be in the DSM-6

#I’ll tolerate gen 8 being your favorite #I’ll think less of you but I’ll tolerate it #but gen 9? this shameless appalling dismissal of creature design? #this openly broken cash grab? #this fucking piece of shit? #is 76 your favorite fallout game too?

woke up in a cold sweat after dreaming that rcg became infinitely more cringe

#i don't remember exactly what their new thing was but i wouldn't describe it if i could #but it was just shameless and lazy and out of touch and yet still a cash grab #and my parents (mom mainly) somehow knew and disapproved?? i think that was in the mix bc you can't just have interests or like things in #this house your things are either gonna get shat on often and profusely or only sometimes #if one parent doesn't hate what you love the other one is gonna #i'm tired of explaining and apologizing for being myself all the time because these people refuse to be open and accept who their #own fucking children are lol #and it's tiring to live under scrutiny and social media already provides me (and us) with scrutiny and i'm already sensitive to it #because my parents couldn't be normal about me 🙄 and then there are men and capitalism out there and that's scary.. #and it's scary that so many people unabashedly chase money or fame or whatever and put on masks and btw an influencer is a #type of horror creature #anyway that's all whatever‚ it also scares me that it's possible to hurt yourself through parasociality gysgxy and that loving anything #that someone else made comes with uhh implications. it shouldn't (i should allow myself to exist) but it does for me #and this was all wrapped in a nice little shit bundle of awkwardness and pity and regret and i did not like this dream #kata.txt

#like if youre willing to let games become hollow shells of themselves then sure go ahead but dont fucking drag me down with you #i desire good things and i think everyone should get good things not shameless cash grabs #rev lore

i think star wars inherently has to be stupid and aimed for kids i think the serious indie film tone of the kenobi show does not work at all and is actively putting me to sleep

#s.txt #obi wan kenobi's interesting dangerous and evergrowing polycule #i mean the last of the jedi books Get hermit obi wan and they're aimed at toddlers #aimed for a general audience doesn't mean it has to lack seriousness. it just means it should be more....approachable #and the fact that its a story abt obi wan and leia is so.... #it leaves it devoid of any real tension like you know leia is gonna be okay you know obi wan is going to be okay #you know there's not going to be any lasting external impact and its literally just. a shameless cash grab #monetizing on the popularity of tcw and the nostalgia people now have for the prequels #but anyways.

I went to the LotRO forums to express my opinion on the new cooldowns on the egg scramble, mushroom hunt, and race quests, and found that enough other people are complaining about it that my input isn’t especially necessary. But I did encounter a lot of people complaining about Fishy. Very Fishy. which is a quest with an astronomically small chance of actual success, and that bothered me. Because... like... that’s the point of the quest? It’s a quest where you’re absurdly unlikely to actually succeed, but if you do then you get a cool title, and I always found that fun. It wasn’t like you needed to succeed at it for actual gameplay, it was just a little easter egg. And you got rewards for completing it regardless because all the fish can be bartered for tokens, so it’s not even that bad.

#lotro #once again the lotro forums are awful #just full of people who. really seem to hate the game theyre playing #fishy very fishy has always been like that; its not at all like the way they changed the new quests #idk maybe i should comment #community backlash is how they rolled back on the stupid currency plan #also people calling these new cooldowns 'shameless cash grabs' are funny #ive never in my life even considered using mithril to reset a repeatable quest cooldown #not once #the fact that it even occurred to them is. theyre telling on themselves
