My Most Underappreciated Films of 2023

Marten Katze and Jessi Gaston discuss their unwanted roommate in Dog Movie. As with my Overhyped Films list, these choices are entirely in earnest. For the most part, the critics didn’t get anything horribly wrong this year, but the audiences and awards groups are another matter; these films combined have three Globe nominations, no BAFTA nominations, and no Oscar nominations. So let’s give them…

thinking about how the extra area added on to a pacifist run of undertale, the true lab, is about alphys's past mistakes. how it ends with the story reaffirming that, despite the pain she's caused, the thing that matters is that she has now made the choice to do the right thing. she's still worthy of her friends' love.

thinking about how undertale doesn't expect the player to get a pacifist ending for the first time. how it's more likely than not that the player will kill toriel the first time they battle her, how lots of players don't initially figure out how to end undyne's fight without killing her, etc. what it expects — not even expects, really, but hopes — is that the player, if they care enough, will use their canonically acknowledged power over time to make up for those mistakes.

no matter how many neutral runs a player has done before committing to the pacifist run, the thing that matters to the characters, to the story, is that you've chosen, now, to do the right thing.

compared to alphys, the player honestly gets off lightly, in that you're the only one (other than flowey) who really remembers any harm you might have caused. and any direct guilting the game could have done about it is long past at this point. instead, as undertale often does, it makes its point via parallels: alphys caused harm, and she knows it. she has committed to being better. in doing so, she has unlocked for herself a better ending to her story. and she deserves it. she's forgiven.

those structural narrative parallels are all over undertale, if you know where to look. and that's one of the things that makes it so fuckin' good.

A dream redesign sketch dump. The first two is what I’m using for the comic. Sorry I changed him I just really don’t like the spandex zip tied body suit in his normal design. Also swap dream redesign because I really think he would fit a jester. Ok that’s all for today

do you realise how skilled a driver needs to be to not only be aware of their own car and tyres and pace, but also every other drivers’ as well? how skilled a driver needs to be to know and remember every driver who’s a threat, and their pace and their tyres and the laps they boxed? how skilled a driver needs to be to strategise your own race and your teammates race, and even be able to manoeuver tricks that aren’t used in f1 car racing much? do you realise how skilled a driver needs to be to fully be aware of every possible outcome of every turn, every lap, judging the car in the front and at the back, all while racing their own race?

do you realise how few drivers can do that?

only one can.

and that’s carlos fucking sainz.

etho said actually you _don't_ understand the intricacies of how tango is my boyfriend and bdubs is my ex

(and how tango and bdubs kiss too)

Scar: We went on that little adventure, you know! Etho: Yeah, yeah, we had our adventure, that's true, that's true. Scar: You disparaged your teammates. That's it, all right, no more spoilers. Etho: (laughs) Our team has -- our team has some weird dynamics this -- this season. Cleo: (overlapping) Really, Etho? Is there trouble in paradise? (pause) Who's third-wheeling with you, again? I can't remember. Etho: (laughs) Uhh. The -- Cleo: Genuinely can't remember. I know it's you and Bdubs. And...Tango? Tango. Tango. Etho: (loudly) Why -- Why is Tango the third wheel? Why -- why isn't Bdubs the third wheel? Cleo: Because it's you and Bdubs. I'm sorry. I understand how that relationship goes. Etho: (dissatisfied) Hmm.

My Most Underappreciated & Overhyped Films of 2022

Let’s end January on a spicy note. I write this having only seen 88 films for the year (“only,” he says), and have yet to see a number of films which might well merit mention, especially documentaries and foreign-language films. Besides, these lists are heavily subjective in terms of what constitutes “hype” and “appreciation.” Many of the overhyped films aren’t that bad; some of the…
