Cool, thanks for the interesting read! It can be easy to forget how big of an effect our pop culture has on the rest of the world.
I'd like to visit Ireland some day, my dad went there for work and said it was great.
For every valid point she makes, she spews out twice as much bullshit that gets taken as fact. ABC Nightline interviewed her a while ago and it was only at the end was she ever challenged.
There are some fair criticisms to be made about her ( particularly her early videos) but I don't see the need to make her out to be the villain of the game industry. Often times she does make valid points.
One thing I will definitely agree with you on, is being able to connect with video games more than movies. Since video games are interactive and virtual, they don't suffer from the same limitations that film/TV and books do, so I think video games have the potential to be a superior form of entertainment and storytelling than films or TV.

Both freezing cold but the Irish are nicer and you can understand their accent more I think the best thing about Ireland is the people here
… more
I'd personally chose Ireland we all think Americans are awesome over here and more fun but up to you
I hope ur make the third option Spain tho
I know what you mean. I was a waiter at this English themed restaurant and they were so rude and snotty to the staff which consisted of American born people. Such snobs bleh
I Absolutly hate Chloe from Life is Strange. She is just the Most stupid character in the Game. And there are some points in EP.3 and EP. 4, where i actually started to Hate Max, too. Because she just follows chloe with some bullshit. But Max is still way more likeable, because she isnt always making stupid decisions.
Really? Does she have that much influence? Yes. One person threw away their games (btw, did they stop making games? Or just change projects?). I don't think a lot of people making games go 'gee, I'd like to make one, but there's Anita Sarkeesian..." I took a seminar of feminism in film and the last lecture was on gaming - she was mentioned, but it doesn't really seem like she got much credence...
The hell?
How can you think anything she does is okay? She doesn't deserve to be called a feminist, she calls strong female leads in games sexist and sex objects for men to look at. She destroys peoples dreams to make games.
Meh, I don't understand all the hate - or the attention. Some things she says are decent points, but not novel, and other things she says are silly flat on their face.
"She destroys people's will to make games."

oh come on You cannot use a movie as an example plus the added fact that film was written by an ENGLISHMAN only confirms the post original point :P If we start that I could name hundreds of times the Americans mocked us XD
Don;t even get me stated about American shows trying to do the Irish I never heard one correct Irish accent ever
What about the Irish? Can they make fun of Americans? Personally, I can also appreciate a good American joke, as long as it's clever.

What's funny about this clip is the actors are so obviously not American. At least the guy above is (or at least sounds like) one.

Preach. It feels like people get really hyperbolic about Anita's influence, like she's some kind of omnipresent SJW boogeyman. if it wasn't for this community or Reddit, I'd have no idea who she is.
The anti-Feminist circlejerk acrually benefits Anita because it exposes her to a wider audience.

I was just playing- I liked the movie and the director so I posted it - that said, Marin McDonagh is a British/Irish duel citizen whose 'Six Shooter' (awesome short) was funded by the Irish government.
As for Irish directors I prefer especially Jim Sheridan and a bit of Neil Jordan.

No I'm sorry if that came off as aggressive more a playful response, the textboxes responses make it hard to tell my fault
That is awesome I might check that film
Jim Sheridan is great and Noel Pearson who worked with him to make my left foot as a young kid my dad was a limo driver for Pearson everytime we went to his mansion I'd get twenty euro and a massive bag of sweets off him it was like heaven going to that mansion I only was there a couple of times though.
I'm more a fan of American films the Irish films I've seen are boring to me and depressing XD

In any case, I'm just messing around anyway.

I don't get the hate on Marvel's Daredevil (the movie). It was alright had a good cast, fight scenes and soundtrack. Was a bit generic but someone please explain why reviewers and people hate on it

No bro to cold and boring go to spain plenty of Irish there on holiday and it's warm
I hate when the British make fun of all Americans. That's why about 240 years ago you guys ruled us so whatever
I want to go to Ireland or Scotland. I can't decide which, mostly because I don't know the difference. . .
<_<

I would love for this to happen.
Spain is on the list, but it's a bit lower on the places I'd like to visit. Ireland it is, haha.
No worries. I've listened to his theme song a thousand times. lol.
We got a DLC which was awesome, but anything MGR would be great.
Yep.
I know what you mean. I was a waiter at this English themed restaurant and they were so rude and snotty to the staff which consisted of American born people. Such snobs bleh
Eh. They're pretty much the best friends America has in the world, so I give it a pass.
I fight better shit-faced, so ya' better bring all your Amish friends to this scrap, boy!
Yes it is. It's set 20 years before Fables issue 1.
There is no proofs of this.
I don't find Minecraft Story Mode as interesting as TTG previous games.

To be honest I'd be scared to make games knowing Anita could shit all over it if it includes a woman at all.

I played the demo and... eh. It's alright. I assume it gets better later on and I am buying it anyway.

I agree. Chloe is such a bad friend So damn needy . Max would be better off without her.
. I'm sure children will love it.

She has enough influence to go to the UN to request Internet censorship.
In Bruges. One of my favorite movies of all time.
My greatest regret is that I have but one like to give for Mark.
Arkham Knight is my least favourite Arkham game in the series. Nope. Not even kidding. And yes, that also means I prefer Origins over Knight.

Oh God that movie...
College in America is awful.
It's a complete racket with a captive audience and it's designed to wring as much money out of students and parents as possible.
