goddamn the Et Al family are some smart motherfuckers

people make fun of mtg players who think that adding spongebob and teenage sloptant mutant pizzas to the game diminishes it because "well its just a card game its silly anyway" which is just frankly really dumb. it is normal to value a specific tone in art and media! i wager most people wouldnt like it if they were watching a serious thriller film and halfway through a cartoon rabbit walked on screen and starting pantsing the hero every other scene--doesn't mean that they are Taking Movies Too Seriously, it means they think extreme bathetic tonal dissonance undercuts many elements of film that they enjoy. perfectly sensible thing to think innit

Where's that video of that French guy talking about how Italian pizza whispers "enjoy the flavor" while american pizza shouts "enjoy your life!"

A little known MtG set that was an early precedent for Universes Beyond was based on which of these Scorcese films and released on the 40th anniversary of the film in 2003?

Set tag line was "Winter comes to Dominaria" and the set was largely panned for incorporating Goncharov-themed cards into various settings on Dominaria a la a traditional crossover. This reception informed the later decsision to make Universes Beyond products their own thing separate from traditional Magic sets.
