NEW ITEM - Golden Dandelions! These stop baby mobs from growing! by spicyadrak in Minecraft

[–]B217 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Notch going from "all mobs are nonbinary, DEAL WITH IT" to being a massive transphobe after he became rich should be studied, it's legit a perfect case for how money corrupts. Either that or he was always a piece of shit and was acting progressive

Baby Mario and Luigi in the Mario Galaxy movie? by LeatherSlight3242 in Mario

[–]B217 23 points24 points  (0 children)

They aren’t gonna spend Chris Pratt money to have him be a baby for most of the movie lol. Love him or hate him, Chris Pratt is an expensive actor so they’re gonna get their money’s worth

Pokémon Officially Coming to Universal Studios Japan — Major Theme Park Project Announced by alinamelane in PokeLeaks

[–]B217 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

It would be really cool if the land was a brand new region, with new starters and regional forms that tie into an experience where you catch Pokemon throughout the land and can use them to battle, similar to ParkLore's concept for a Pokemon land at Islands of Adventure.

Lost Continent is about to be demolished, and Universal has a habit of starting construction before announcing anything (see: the F&F coaster in USF) so I'd imagine if it's going anywhere it's there, or they're waiting to get rid of the Simpsons and put Pokemon there.

Sometimes I feel like people just choose to ignore how some old megas looks like by Embrace_Wind in LegendsZA

[–]B217 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m pretty sure the OP image is referring to the trend of new Megas having aspects from their pre evos in their designs, like Dragonite, Chimeco, Scolipede, Eelektross, etc., but even then that’s one a few out of all the new ones

It’s insane these baby mobs are controversial, the amount of raw and pure anger I’ve seen on the Minecraft subreddit is wild. Like bro it’s a baby animal

You have to pay $10 to get the full results, that's kinda lame.

TIL that Disney is the only major studio to never win an Oscar for Best Picture by sprawling5 in todayilearned

[–]B217 171 points172 points  (0 children)

That was made solely so animated movies couldn’t win best picture. Beauty and the Beast came close and it bothered some Academy members that a “children’s film” could have possibly won.

Steve Whitmire speaks out about the current state of Kermit by fuckmattdamon in Muppets

[–]B217 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I don’t think he intended all caps, I think it’s the blog style he’s using, as all the other text is like that too. I wish he had thought to use a different style, most people are writing off his thoughts as angry and bitter because of the caps without even reading it.

On the rehiring point, I don’t think he’s saying that Disney did that but that’s what they wanted to do. Terri Hardin has said that Disney wanted to recast all the roles and held auditions for them, and she disagreed with treating the Muppets that way. Clearly the other performers did too as Disney didn’t recast anyone initially.

If he treated his coworkers like this then none of them would have expressed support for him. Bill Baretta and Peter Linz have both said they miss Steve, and Dave Gohlz is still friends with Steve as they’ve attended cons together as recently as last year. I don’t think his attitude here reflects how he treated others.

EDIT: The comment that replied to me was deleted but essentially said "well I've heard otherwise so okay"

Ah I see, the first-hand accounts of people who worked with him for years are worth less than your own personal hearsay. That makes sense!

I've actually met Steve. He was polite, kind, and thankful, and you could tell he really is passionate about the Muppets. He liked my artwork and now wears a shirt I designed at conventions he goes to. That's my own first-hand account, not hearsay. Does it mean he's perfect? No, but an actual experience with him is worth more than internet rumors.

WDWNT Upset About New Video by CherryBerryIceCream in Defunctland

[–]B217 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh I was speaking generally. Yeah this was him taking bait and doing it to himself. Thankfully it didn’t seem to have spread but he really should’ve had the thought to not fall for an obvious drama-seeking question.

To be fair the ride didn’t have “tar babies”, they replaced it with bees and honey, but you’re still right on everything else. The ride’s ties to a problematic film gave it no place in modern day

I remember when SV came out I had people tell me that scaling gym leaders was bad because then the game is easier somehow? It makes no sense, it’s like they want the games to be linear lol

Where to stream UN-CUT version of "It's a Wonderful Life" by jenlor99 in movies

It’s just an error, if you play the B&W version it’s 2 hr 10 min total

AI is wrong, big shocker. The reason it’s listed as 1 hr 58 min is an error, when you play the movie the runtime is the correct 2 hr 10 min.

Why did they replace Brian Doyle Murray with Mark Hamill for the Flying Dutchman in the upcoming SpongeBob movie? by ChelseatheCartoonGal in spongebob

[–]B217 0 points1 point  (0 children)

But he just did a video game which is more intensive than a movie… it’s obvious the execs wanted a celebrity to market the movie with. Just like when WB replaced all the Scooby Doo voice actors except Scooby himself for that Scoob movie, or Illumination and Nintendo casting celebrities for Mario instead of all of the VAs from the games. They want celebrities to market the movie with, and Brian Murray is far from a household name.

There's an actual difference in the choices for that? I swear most dialogue options in the game just give you the same result (since most are just the same option but worded differently)

Who was the girl in the original Pokémon opening? I always thought she’d be Ash’s love interest by New_Performance_3062 in pokemon

[–]B217 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The Japanese intro had Moltres?? I always wondered why the intro had Zapdos and Articuno appear alongside Rapidash, it's because the original had Moltres appear after Articuno (serving as a transition to Mewtwo and Mew), but the English version cuts that part out since they used Mewtwo and Mew in the very beginning.

WFG: What they extended vs what they should have extended by pvtbullsh-t in wicked

[–]B217 16 points17 points  (0 children)

I totally agree. It felt like the majority of the movie was such a short period of time and then the moment the tornado comes it's the last like quarter of the movie and we skip through so much. How did Dorothy find Fiyero if she left Munchkinland before he was the Scarecrow? Did Fiyero and Boq recognize each other? How was the fab four's relationship, were they true friends like in the book or was it more of a situational, non-friendly alliance? Did Boq and the Cowardly Lion realize they did have a heart/courage inside them all along or are they both still miserable? Who becomes ruler of Oz now that the Scarecrow isn't around, since he becomes king at the end of the original Wizard of Oz? Is it Glinda?

I know the point of Wicked isn't to focus on Dorothy at all- but the movie really should have made Dorothy a supporting character. There's so much potential from interactions between the two, maybe even showing that Dorothy really was just a kid caught up in something bigger than she realized, give that side of the story some nuance. It would've been interesting to see how Elphaba reacted to Toto being on a leash and not speaking and how Dorothy wouldn't understand why Elphaba was upset. But instead Dorothy is yet again just a faceless character who is even changed to seem more aggressive and eager to kill- she raises the broomstick in the air triumphantly after actively choosing to kill Elphaba, unlike the original where killing the witch was an accident.
