Activision did Spielberg a huge favor here.

DiscussingFilm @discussingfilm.net · Sep 5

Steven Spielberg really wanted to direct a ‘CALL OF DUTY’ movie.

• His team pitched his vision for the film to Activision

• Activision got spooked by Spielberg wanting full control over the film so they sold the rights to Paramount instead

Man I thought this was going to be about how Australia got rid of guns based on the title!

Congrats on the release!

It's hard sending them that way too now. I had to stop selling + shipping.

Hell yeah, Sandwich Guy. Fight the Power!

The Washington Post @washingtonpost.com · Aug 21

A Banksy-like poster of Sandwich Guy is popping up around D.C.

“When somebody writes the history of this period, that will definitely be one of the iconic images that comes out of it,” said one expert who specializes in graffiti and street art.

How a thrown sub made ‘Sandwich Guy’ a resistance icon in Trump’s D.C.

A DOJ employee was fired and charged with a felony after chucking a footlong at a federal agent. Now his likeness is a symbol --- and for sale on t-shirts.

Agree with all of this (it’s awful and not fun to go anymore) with the exception of checkout. I’m all in on self-checkout.

That’s not how AAA games work. It rarely matters if the devs are connected to the gamers because the devs rarely have any say in what the money holders think they want the gamers to have. This scenario is obviously common and relies on no single group being connected to anyone to survive.

Adam Orth @adamorth.bsky.social · Aug 19

If you think the people holding the money are not disconnected from the developers, you are not paying attention at all. It's never been more clear that this is the case.

Mr. Bean is also the example I use in this argument when I allow myself to get sucked into this argument. 🙌

No, he was looking for a tremolo system that stayed in tune. The Kramer had one (called Rockinger I think) which led to him working with Kramer + Floyd Rose
