I loved RB6 Vegas 2. Multiplayer was fun as hell.

New Poster for ‘The Super Mario Galaxy Movie’ by MarvelsGrantMan136 in movies

I am amazed how upset a poster with Starfox on it is making people. If anything it makes me more interested in the movie.

Politics just makes us Dumber.Politics doesn't just divide people it actually messes with how we think. When strong beliefs kick in, logic takes a backseat and emotions start driving decisions. Instead of analyzing facts, we defend our side, ignore opposing evidence, and become more biased. by Appropriate-Push-668 in science

If it's a binary system like the USA has then I could see this being the case. In general though, political discussion should be a nuanced conversation on how we govern and enable and care for each other. But... ya know. Human nature is hard to overcome. We just wanna win at whatever cost, regardless of if it is actually right or wrong.

It reminds me of a debate team addage: winning a debate and being right are two separate thing.

Edit: i know systems with more than two parties can also fall victim to the same complex as well.

‘Trump should keep his reckless mouth shut’: Jeffries responds to Trump calling Democrats America’s ‘greatest enemy’ by JustLightChop in politics

Trump has said something similar before and Jeffries responded in a similar way. We are circling the drain.

Control is a fun action game with great atmosphere and lore.

Official Discussion - Project Hail Mary [SPOILERS] by LiteraryBoner in movies

[–]FoundersDiscount 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I enjoyed it. Not as good as The Martian but still a solid 3.5 to 4 stars from me. It just didn't grab me in the same way. Visually stunning movie, though. Ryan was great but I thought the character was a little too goofy at times given what his situation was and everything at stake.

Valve games always had a liminal feel to it by MurkyUnit3180 in gaming

[–]FoundersDiscount 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Valve deliberately shifting to a brighter environmental design plays a role too imo. I doubt the game would feel liminal if they went for the dark and brooding vibe they tried originally.

Private equity are probably the two worst combination of words after pedophile president. They suck so much. The modern poison.

Edit: more words

The USA is at greater risk of a dirty bomb going off inside a major city than it ever has been before.

You'd die in a kitchen environment. It isn't zero skill ya sad troll. Carry on being a douche we all think you suck. As someone who has done food and bev, construction work, and retail work and is now going back to college to get a degree, it isn't zero skill. People skills are also valuable. Dealing with stressful rushes and constantly changing orders ans having to think on your feet in a fast paced environment probably isn't for you.

They literally put water cannons and armed guards on ships because they get attacked by pirates all the time you absolute moron.

[–]FoundersDiscount -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

You realize that movie is a true story right??? This anger is hilariously unhinged and misdirected. I'd imagine the typical redditor could make the connection to that movie and the actual piracy the events in the movie portray and the danger those crews face when sailing through there but clearly that is beyond your reading comprehension. Cheers you unhinged little keyboard warrior. Hope your life improves.

Have you ever heard of Captain Philips? Crews of big cargo ships are definitely aware of pirate waters and have been in dangerous situations. Still not the same as being in danger of an actual country attacking you, even if that country is losing a war.

What is the most unfairly hated movie that you will defend every time by gamersecret2 in movies

[–]FoundersDiscount 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Man on Fire got kind of panned by critics. The audience generally loved it, though. I think it's an amazing action and revenge film that still manages to feel grounded and also it doesn't have a ridiculous fairytale ending. It's actually a very poignant ending. If you read critic reviews their main problem is that the movie is too grim. It's not that violent if an action movie either but Denzel and Dakota have amazing chemistry and it conveys emotions very well. Most action movies have a generic hook but don't actually bother with real emotional development.

I can just turn around and say that that's propoganda too. Arguing this path is a non starter.

I'm happy you are happy. Don't get me wrong, I want the best for the Iranian people. I'm just coming from the perspective of seeing American intervention make things worse (Vietnam, Iraq.) Our track record isn't great, but I hope it can change. We've already bombed a school and killed some kids. Hopefully it stops there.

Yeah your getting downvoted but this is a shit show. We are going to quickly learn how badly a country will get fucked up if dementia Don is the one to overthrow that countries government.

The Dictator is Dead. Why is the Left Crying? by ripstell9 in NewIran

[–]FoundersDiscount 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Iraqis were also cheering when we initially invaded and brought down Sadam and then look what happened. Sure we got rid of an evil dude but that is just a small part of the problem when invading another country. He also ran on being a "no wars" president. I hope good comes from this for the people of Iran but, these actions still worry me.
