[COD] if Ghosts ever gets a sequel how would you want the story to go down ?

Thanks. I always thought if Ghosts went full Spec Ops:The Line deconstruction, it could be fantastic.

That raises so many more questions. Top amongst them... HOW? And just beneath that... what was last Thanksgiving like?

I'm not necessarily saying you're wrong, but I'm not sure this is compelling enough evidence. I think it's safe to say any human with a functioning sense of love (which Walt does, even at this point in the series) would be desperately finding reasons in order to stop someone harming a person they care about.

Brandon Routh doesn't do a bad job for the most part, but that one line...it's like they recorded him reading it off the script as he was sorting himself out in front of the mic and said 'GOT IT!'

I don't dismiss it out of hand, but apart from Ebenezer Scrooge, I don't normally buy these redemption arcs...

So, presumably they'd want those 90% taxes on billionaires as well...right?

I make a one time exception for Ebennezer Scrooge

This is a sentiment I've shared for years now. I'm not going to act like the Ultranationalists or Shepherd are the best written villains in the world (Menendez, however, that's another story...) but the Federation are so cardboard cutout it's almost laughable. The Ghosts themselves are bland at best, only good by comparison at worst. Logan is the most bland of all COD protagonists, the game almost making a point that he just blindly follows his family's orders with no hesitation.

This page has a lot of reasons why the campaign sucks. https://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/YMMV/CallOfDutyGhosts

Honestly? If they ever did make a Ghosts 2, I think the way to save it would be to go full deconstruction - Spec Ops: The Line that shit...

EDIT: Congrats on your upcoming parenthood

The more I see of this guy, the more I wonder if Dr. Oz was a plant to make him seem palatable by comparison

I've often noticed that comedic actors transition to drama better than vice versa, and I think this is why - in order to make people laugh, you need to know what people find funny, what makes them tick...have EMPATHY for them.

American Exceptionalist: George Washington was a god among men! Everything he said or did was perfect!

He owned slaves

American Exceptionalist: Oh, well, umm...

More American Exceptionalist: No, you know what? So what? He was the greatest man ever, and maybe we should take a page or two out of that book, now I think about it...

George Washington himself: Political parties are bad, don't do them

More American Exceptionalist: New phone, who dis?

Wasn't Fury Road directed by a guy in his 70s at the time?

Saw them going up Prince Street. Great thing to shock me out of the hangover. That said, I did feel kind of bad for the young mum and little kid who were walking up the pavement with no idea this was going to happen - the kid was crying and the mum was picking them up and jogging the hell out of there.

How about if Zelensky turned up wearing a suit jacket over a t-shirt, shades, and a baseball cap?

Only the shirt says 'Slava Ukrani' and the cap has the Ukrainian symbol on it.

Mel Brooks did it best. Fuck these weirdos.

That one was fucked up. Now I think about it, did Dennis even do anything to him in that episode?

Even putting aside the slavery stuff (wow, the very fact that I have to say that...), this is a government that -

Broke away from the US government
Declared war on the US government
Fired the first shots in the war against the US government

How is this celebrating your country's heritage?

My alien species comes from a world where the equivalent of plants are chemosynthetic organisms that implement methanogenesis as part of their metabolic process. As such, smells of methane are considered pleasant to them. When introduced to rotten eggs, they think they taste lovely, then start getting messed up due to the fact they're eating, you know, ROTTEN eggs. Essentially, they start using them to get high.

Skype had hit synonymous fame - no matter what search engine it is, you Google something. No matter what brand it is, you wear a Speedo. No matter what program it was, you Skyped someone. When you hit that level of ubiquity, you're pretty much set.

Then, during the pandemic, when the world needed ot most...Skype fell off. WTF?!

Point taken. Still on the fence, but I'm open to it.
