Playing the Numbers Game

Everyone seems to be buzzing about The Last Airbender’s Rotten Tomatoes score of 7%, asking things like “is it really that bad,” “is it actually worse than Marmaduke or Twilight: Eclipse,” or “is it really that bad?” It really is interesting to see how much discussion there is out there about scores and numbers and percentages alone on this movie compared to what discussion there is out there on what exactly made the movie so shitty.

My Desk Is 8-bit by Alex Varanese

You know that stop-motion classic NES video that’s been making the rounds on the internets?
