I need to reinstall Valhalla to play the DLC.

[rivia]

y'know, it just occurred to me how odd it is that there hasn't been remakes of 1 and the Ezio trilogy.

[arashinoookami]

That would be awesome!

i've been playing ac brotherhood again recently and tbh i love the weird bugginess of the game and the horses. im not sure if i'd want a remake tho... hmm....

[dantesspirit]

On one hand, I'd love to have remastered and updated editions of AC1 through Revelations.

On the other, Ubisoft contributes to toxic game developer/industry behavior, so I refuse to give them more money.

But AC remains my absolute favorite series. I just refuse to play anymore Ubisoft games.

Yes! Especially with Mean Girls. I think I'd have to do a rewatch of Legally Blonde, but I seem to remember some general homophobic stereotypes? Or maybe not. Maybe I'm thinking of another movie. Lots of the parts still resonate, especially the creepy professor

I feel like being able to deal with watching things with parts that have aged poorly is something human beings should be able to do

I agree about Mean Girls. Legally Blonde is a bit more complicated, IMO, because in some ways (almost all the gender-related stuff) it holds up really well IMO, but then it does also have some clunky and problematic queer stereotyping that does feel super dated. I mean, I don't think the movie is hostile to queerness, but the fact that it very much stereotypes its queer characters, and that it does so for the sake of comedy, definitely feels less-than-great by today's standards.

I rewatched Legally Blond recently and it held up really well.

I also recently saw Legally Blonde and for the most part it held up really well! Some of Paulette's dialogue is, to put it mildly, not PC (I sometimes forget how casually the r-slur was just thrown around in the early 2000s) but otherwise it was really fun. With the gay rep...I personally think the pool boy sequence was hilarious, but I and most of my friends are gay so I can say it's funny for me. I don't know how I'd feel about a straight person watching it and laughing. The lesbian character could have used some nuance but honestly it was just wild that there was a lesbian character at all in that film.

I think the main difference with Legally Blonde holding up well versus Mean Girls is the tone? Legally Blonde is achingly sincere while Mean Girls is...well, meaner, so its stereotyping is edgier. Plus there was some race stuff featured in Mean Girls that wasn't particularly present in Legally Blonde, and imo race jokes are harder to pull off unless you put a lot of thought into them, which I felt Mean Girls didn't. (Don't get me wrong, Mean Girls was very formative to me and I can quote it to this day, but I would say it's tone and it's willingness to go places set it up to not age well.)
