The longevity of the Sonic movies?

Sonic 3 is coming out, and alongside shadow will be premiering Amy. I'm starting to become concerned about the longevity of the new movies part of the franchise. Is this going to turn into a fast and furious thing?

With the way they're introducing new characters, it would make sense for them to have at least five movies. At this point, I don't think they're going to bring in metal Sonic because they're bringing in present day Amy and Shadow. It would be pretty screwy if they brought in metal Sonic now. Sega has done worse, I know.

I don't understand these people that are seeing Sonic frontiers and Sonic prime and thinking all is forgiven. Sega still has a lot to make up for. They're in the process of rebuilding the trust. The trust isn't rebuilt off of one mostly okay game, with a banging soundtrack, and an okay cartoon. But Sega always trips up somewhere. I found out that they were advertising Sonic with a memory loss plot, that they scrapped at the last second and left the files in so we got what was supposed to be Sonic losing his memory in the gameplay. Sega has to stop doing shit like that for the trust to be rebuilt. That was a heavy plot point that they advertised up until the very last second, and very unnecessarily disappointed a lot of people. Sonic the hedgehog 2006 flashback! They can't keep doing stuff like that but then think all is forgiven because they gave us a vocalized final boss track for the first time in 13 years.

They've already fucked these movies up with copaganda. Look up "40% of cops", by the way. You're welcome.

Anyway, I hope that the Sonic movies don't turn into a fast and furious-like thing.

healthy choice Cafe steamers grilled chicken marinara with parmesan

I'll skip the packaging review, because you already know that part from the two previous blog post. My opinion about that hasn't changed. This is also another regular purchase for me. the overall packaging of the meal is great quality, but the parmesan amount can vary. Be aware that they skimp on the parmesan. The chicken is tender, and the noodles and broccoli have a slight firmness. It's all Greek to Me. The sauce in this one is on the weak side, in my opinion but still flavorful. something I'm noticing so far with a lot of these microwave dinners is that they're not full dinners because they focus on quality over quantity, but the quantity is was lacking. It's also the same price as the others: $2.99, on sale. Normally, $3.99 or $4.99. it won't get you full, but it can hold you over for an hour or two. I would say it's worth two or three, but not four. 

Racism, Tim Burton, and Beetlejuice Beetlejuice

A lot of people have forgotten about this, but a years ago, Tim Burton said that he doesn't cast black people because race has nothing to do with the context of any of his movies.  I think this happened after Beetlejuice 1988. Black people were casted as football players in the afterlife. That makes sense. Most football players are black. We figured out decades later why that's problematic with the Kaepernick situation. Entertainment is all black people are allowed to have so when an entertainer has a political opinion it's easy to tell them to shut up. "Dance, monkey! Dance!" narrative. But with Beetlejuice Beetlejuice having that soul train scene after he said it, the context tells me that black people are allowed to exist in Tim Burton's aesthetic if they are not stereotypical singing dancing caricatures.  A lot of (white) people will argue that Tim Burton isn't racist because he casted a Latina to play Astrid. The problem with that is a lot of Mexicans...

Facebook Instagram and WhatsApp

 A lot of you probably didn't notice, but Facebook Instagram and WhatsApp went down yesterday because the dsn a and AAA records were attacked. I don't have a full understanding of what that means, but given that the domains became available for purchase, I can make context clues based on the information I already have with my short time as a self-proclaimed internet historian. I'm also the type of person that is more interested in why this happened because what happened is a lot simpler to explain. What's not going to be so simple to explain but the media is going to try to explain anyway are the Pandora papers. The long records of a former employee recording all of Facebook's wrongdoings. I was one of the many watching the highlights of Facebook's hearing, but I wasn't watching them in full like many others. If you weren't involved at all, but you're getting involved now, you're about to learn a lot from the summaries of the Pandora...
