They're basically turning Fortnite itself into a console in a way. Or maybe a really elaborate storefront I guess? Even though you don't buy the games.
You don't need AI to do that, that kind of system can be made independent of AI. It's just not worth doing for this one use case vs using it for a whole voice.
Tokyo has a bunch of stores that cater to different fandoms, so you really have to just walk around to find them. Places like the shops in Akihabara, Sunshine City, Skytree Mall, and Don Quijote are where I'd find most of my shirts. You could really shop anywhere though and find some anime apparel.
Super hero fatigue isn't real, even the first Captain Marvel made over $800 million. The sad truth is that the MCU has dropped in quality since Endgame and everyone knows it. They're flailing right now, trying to figure out what they want to do with the MCU while still making movies instead of doing all that work beforehand.
I think we'll see Deadpool 3 get close to the old performance numbers because it has a good history already. I agree the Sony movies will be irrelevant to the zeitgeist unless they can pull a Morbius but even that didn't help last time.
There's no way Spider-Verse 3 happens until 2025 at he earliest, not after the strikes this year.
I'm hoping this next year gives the MCU the time it needs to figure out where it wants to go in its next saga. I think most fans really enjoyed seeing an overarching story play out across the movies as a reward for their "investment", I know I did. The quality needs to improve as well; no more introducing new characters for the sake of it, having real stakes that matter, and better writing across the board. I really want the MCU to be good again.
I want those chocolate squares 😋
