Disney ending deal with Netflix to create its own streaming service. Great, another friggin’ one
It seems obvious that Netflix and Disney are in a War to Absorb All Our Pop Culture. The latest shot in the war finds Disney severing their ties with Netflix, and intent on creating their own streaming service. Man. Remember those halcyon days when we all thought that cord-cutting was going to save us money? Seems so long ago. Now we’re all scrambling, trying to find someone’s Hulu login, while bartering with our own fucking Netlix login to gain someone else’s HBO Go password. Yeah, fuck. Now there’s another service, another one! Christ.

James Gunn says “new technology” will prevent ‘Guardians 2’ footage from leaking at SDCC
James Gunn must have read my blog post last week. You know, me. Czar of the Internet. IdiotCaptain of the Fools Brigade. ‘Cause dude was like, “the GoTG 2 footage being shown at SDCC won’t be seen by the public for a while” to which I responded “haha yeah okay.” While now this week bro is promising “new technology” to prevent leakage. A footage-convention diaper, if you will. To this I say: good luck.
