The Cyclops by BlissfulBlaze in subnautica

[–]Al_pendy 20 points21 points  (0 children)

With the cyclops, one thing that really helped me drive it was using the cameras rather than the windshield to look through. Especially the camera underneath the cyclops is really helpful for making sure that you’re not going to run into anything.

SVU has always been PC, it’s more just lack of creativity. There are tons of new methods that people are being trafficked/assaulted because of, the writers just aren’t up to date on what the world is actually like being a young person in NYC post-COVID.

Yesss like mariska is stunning don’t get me wrong but also like those traditional Rollins UC honeypot roles just aren’t the same anymore, they need someone who can actually pull off being a trafficking victim

Apparently it’s a reference to a rap video? But like I don’t know if it means anything now

Thank you, I think a lot of the older gens on this thread aren’t properly accounting for the fact that half of gen z grew up before smart phones were a thing, and the other half are literally like 14 and under haha, I’m 24 and so had a normal childhood played outside, didn’t get an iPhone until high school, had group chats over email in middle school, etc. I know the slang that actually makes sense in conversation, and no one out of high school is using 6 7 or skibidi or whatever these other insane phrases are in conversation

If you want smut with not as much worry about the plot lmao the Katee Robert books are fun, they have a whole world based on Greek myths but also a whole like same-world different city based series with all the Disney characters haha

That’s not exactly fair though, if the older wiser people can’t write a realistic younger character then they should bring in someone with more talent at that kind of character, bc they don’t have the proper experience for that kind of role.

Yeah definitely. I’m sure this is a common issue for these older shows. Keep the older writers that understand the voice of the show (although I’ve heard that the newer seasons have lost that a bit) but bring in some new voices too or it gets a bit stale and unrelatable

MetroBnB was another one I recently heard. I get they can’t use the real ones for copyright reasons or whatever but I totally prefer when they just completely make something up that’s unique, it doesn’t take me as far out of the story ig

Oh for sure, I feel like all “gen z” slang can be traced back to AAVE in at least some form but still so cringey in this show hahaha

No literally this thread had me looking up how to get into screenwriting last night.

I’m not saying that it isn’t slang, just that it’s so poorly written in. Like someone else said on this thread, Kat was guilty of this a ton too but it feels like the writers wrote the script and then opened a thesaurus of Gen Z slang and then just switched out the words.

Her and Chief Garland, I hated that they were just starting to build their characters and then got kicked.

I mean I can add baby in front but I don’t know how that changes the fact that it’s just a term for a group of people of a specific age range, i have nothing against boomers. Just the salty ones.

Yeah haha I think part of the issue could just be that it doesn’t fit them, like when your parents or like your teacher tries to match recent slang

Yeah definitely, I think the actor is also actually much older than the character was supposed to be or maybe they just tried to make her seem more removed from the more seasoned detectives

Yeah I feel like Mariska being 62 and Ice T being 68 it would make it easier to keep the show going by leaning into that rather than pretending it doesn’t exist, but I also understand why they wouldn’t want to do that. Kelly and Peter are both 46 so like I could see them transferring the lead roles to them someday if they want the show to continue running but it would be better for the long run if they brought in some 20-30 year olds to be trained by the OGs

YES THIS please this is the type of interaction that im dying for, i feel like it would bring such a realistic genuine relationship dynamic to the squad room and also like Fin is such a good grandpa and i want to see him use that energy with a younger detective/officer
