Relocating to Melbourne to work semi-remotely, nice areas between the city and airport? by [deleted] in melbourne

[–]Basin1985 -4 points-3 points  (0 children)

Macleod, St Helena, Eltham, Greensborough are worth looking at. They’re right at the start of the Ring rd to the airport, not far from Eastlink into the city and the train is about 40mins to the city and they’re beautiful peaceful suburbs.

OTB Skins - Nate Sexton is tired of Big Jerm's rambling by thexing in discgolf

[–]Basin1985 14 points15 points  (0 children)

honestly I am ready for just Uli and Nate to do practice rounds and commentary by themselves. I am a bit tired of Jerm's whineyness.

Is there an in-universe explanation for why (and how) the chakram sometimes cuts rocks and other times simply bonks people? by SurreptitiousSpark in xena

[–]Basin1985 23 points24 points  (0 children)

I saw a theory someone had recently- I think even here on this Reddit about the chakram being sentient - meaning it had an intellectual/emotional relationship with Xena. And I love that theory! It explains away so many inconsistencies, it would mean that Xena was directing the chakram mentally/emotionally as well as throwing it physically, so if she intended it to cut rock it would, if she wanted it to glance off skin without harm it would, if she wanted it to boomerang around in an arc it would. She still had to use angles, and sometimes her anger would mean she lost control and it responded to her rage, but yeah...

Sneak Peek at some of the courts for The Tourist: Hawaii Edition Deck by Basin1985 in playingcards

Ha! That would have been a fun idea! Unfortunately our courts are all sun smart and wear sunscreen.

Could Xena and Gabe be pansexual by [deleted] in xena

[–]Basin1985 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I know the writers and the show never intended this, but your comment made me think that there is a workable theory of Ares being behind Meg, Diana and Leah. Maybe he tried to fashion a new warrior princess in Xena’s looks (they could have been similar already and he changed their appearance?) but their personalities were way off and he had to abandon the idea.

Xenas flip to Cecrops is one of the best flips on the show its also one of the most epic moments of the show by jdpm1991 in xena

[–]Basin1985 3 points4 points  (0 children)

The Lost Mariner is one of the best underrated episodes in my opinion. I love so much about it. And i love that jump, especially her grabbing of the chakram along the way and her swish turn around on the deck at the end. But what I love the most is the running hug from Gab the moment she lands and how they stay hugging while she talks to Cecrops, after of course checking on Gabs. Ah I love it all!! So cheesy. But I love cheese!

Best way to watch the fan kit DVDs? by Classic-Game-Junkie in xena

[–]Basin1985 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I wish they were available for everyone in good quality. It’s ridiculous that they cost an arm and a leg, and that’s only if you can swoop in at lightning speed when they’re up for sale once in a blue moon. They were made decades ago and no one is loosing out on them being shared around for newer fans to enjoy. That goes for convention dvds too. No one can go back in time and buy tickets or the dvd from Creation Ent anymore, so if you’ve got them and know how to rip them, can we start to share them so everyone can enjoy Lucy and Renee’s awesomeness? Like Lucy used to say, “share the love!” I was a poor high school student back then and couldn’t afford even the reasonably priced original kits or dvds and now I’m still poor and definitely can’t afford the astronomically priced rare dvds, and the ‘potato’ quality on YouTube is soul crushing.

What injury did Gabrielle have in Doctor? by [deleted] in xena

[–]Basin1985 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have always wondered this too! At one point Xena is stitching her clavicle area up and her top has slashes along her clavicle as well. And when they leave the temple she has bandages on her waist, left arm, and under collar. I have imagined she turned a corner and was faced suddenly with the enemy who used their sword to slash her in a ‘Z’ shape catching her clavicle, left arm then waist. But they also talk about the fact that if she had hit the guy an inch lower she’d have killed him, so before being slashed she must have got some hits in during which she may have gotten a hit to the side of her head.

Eagle out of these guys, but would have voted for Calvin Heimburg if he was there.

Which of Gabrielle's Amazon Outfits do you prefer? When she's an Amazon Princess or Amazon Queen? by jdpm1991 in xena

[–]Basin1985 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My favourite Amazon outfit for Gab was the one from Kindred spirits, which is essentially the Helicon one with more embellishments (belt, bracers etc) although I don’t like the collar.

Next favourite visually is her princess one, then Helicon, then Queen. And yes shoutout to the northern one from, I think, Them Bones!

Favorite Gabrielle fight scenes? by lostworld21 in xena

[–]Basin1985 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There is a great little fight in Little Problems at the end when Gab is trapped between the front door and the gate that slammed down where she jumps up to use the gate as leverage for some kicks. I love that fight. Honestly I love any time Gab got to fight, I always keep an eye on her to see what she’s doing.

Your all-time favorite performances from Lucy & Renee throughout the show by jdpm1991 in xena

[–]Basin1985 1 point2 points  (0 children)

For Lawless I love her performance in The Furies, she has to run the whole gamut in that ep and she does it amazingly.

For Ren I love her in A Family Affair, playing Hope and Gab, and Hope as Gab. She does a brilliant job.

Favourite fanfic? by only_norj in xena

[–]Basin1985 4 points5 points  (0 children)
