But people don't always (or even often) do what's logical. Rey was already being driven largely by emotion; it would have made sense for her to keep pushing that angle

It's not that difficult to imagine the scene being slightly reworked to support a more interesting conclusion.

Thread: Throne room scene in The Last Jedi and what Kylo says (spoilers)

I was merely stating that pointing out that a fallacy exists doesn't really mean a whole lot when it comes to human behavior. When I said it "would have made sense" it wasn't as the exclusion of what actually happened. My point was just that it could have been made to work were that a direction the filmmakers were interested in exploring. Unfortunately, they weren't.

Thread: Octopath Traveler: Preview Thread

I have no idea how you derive any of that from "meh." Especially when it's a tier lower than "liked," which is our lowest recommendation, and I know for a fact we've never said anything close to "but I still liked it guys" within the context of a "meh" review. I didn't think we could make its meaning any more clear

Because we have an actual Dislike tier that's reserved for the games that deserve it. As it turns out, Nintendo games at their worst are rarely actively terrible*, they just fail to leave much of an impression or a desire for more. As the poster above said, we don't consider a "meh" to be a favorable score.

Thread: MoviePass Discussion

I never said anything about whether or not it would affect most movies, only showtimes. Regardless, it could be applied to every movie opening weekend and I'd still argue it's a ridiculous deal. Tthis is (or less!) for theoretically a movie a day. In most markets, a single showing recovers the entire cost, if not 50%+ in others like San Francisco. Most people don't see movies opening weekend, so I'd argue it's not just a valid alternative, but most people's modus operandi. Pretty much this.

Sadly this is where I'm at. I was going to stick with MoviePass until the end because it's been a beautiful thing. but with these changes and AMC's deal actually being pretty damn good, I'm probably going to switch over. I was hoping MP would have added the ability to reserve seats in response to AMC, but they made a much worse change instead. AMC is still a right dick though, and I'm going to miss the flexibility of MP--especially since the Popcorn at the AMC Metreon is room temperature garbage.

Thread: The Incredibles' animation has made me scared to rewatch older Pixar titles

Jaws doesn't even appear on screen until 80 minutes in, and even then, mostly in quick glances. Otherwise it features real people; Incredibles is full of rubbery people the entire way through and looks dated as a result. There's nothing inherently wrong with that at all--I think it almost makes it more interesting in some ways--but I would argue it has aged worse visually (and far faster) than probably almost any pre CGI film.

My experience has been different, although we went all-in on the feeling scale with no numbers at all (which I think is what the person you quoted was suggesting). Sure, there will always be a few idiots arguing about what numbers the "scores" translate to, but the fact that they can never seem to agree makes me happy. It probably helps that we never published the full scale (there was no need to since it's not an actual ranking, and also so that we can add or change them if we need to) and we don't give a shit about not being on Metacritic. We are on OpenCritic, which let's you opt out of number conversions.
