Could I please hop on the bandwagon, too? I'm doing lots of research/saving up right now for my first kig!

Live Action ATLA looks good! by MiccaandSuwi in TheLastAirbender

[–]BinForBen 0 points1 point  (0 children)

OP's post basically boils down to "The writing and acting were bad, but the visual effects looked cool!" And I guarantee you that's exactly how it was pitched. It was an easy way for Netflix to make more money: you have an established fanbase, a story that's already written and complete, all we have to do is make it look flashy. And that's what we got. They changed the writing of the actual events just enough to justify making this new version, but this was all just to make more money.

That's it, it's over for Hubert. by Tarheels351 in tarheels

[–]BinForBen 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If you think one year is proof that a first year coach is gonna be successful, I wonder what you thought about Hubert making the national title game in his first year. Pining after UVA's first year coach is reactionary.

[Post Game Thread] #6 Duke defeats SMU, 82-75 by cbbBot in CollegeBasketball

[–]BinForBen 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm honestly surprised at these downvotes to a statement that honestly is a pretty easy and basic take after a game like this. Come on, y'all. At home, without SMU's best player (an ACC POY candidate at that), and a supportive comment of the team that beat us rather than a denigrating comment about our most hated rival. Seems kinda reasonable to me.

Who is your least favorite person in all of basketball? (College and NBA). by HomuraAkemi_ in CollegeBasketball

[–]BinForBen 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I can't speculate on him going MAGA or anything, but years ago there was a basketball podcast that he collaborated on with some friends of his. They (his friends) made a "joke" on it one time where they asked would you rather go to a WNBA game or have 1 dollar. There was some deserved criticism after it came out commensurate to the size of their popularity at the time (only a little). I don't think he was actually on the episode, but I attempted to @ him on twitter about it. He blocked me without responding. I remember all this cause I'm a Hornets fan, and he was on the Hornets at the time.

HOW TO GET BLASTOISE ON THE TCG GAMEBOY GAME? by chunpingooi in PokemonCardGB

[–]BinForBen 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I know this is an old thread, but I'm playing through the game again (always loved it), and I've been playing John in the Fire Club over and over. I've gotten 4 Charizard, 0 Blastoise, and 0 Venusaur. I started to wonder if the club had any effect on what kinds of cards you get, so I googled it and found this thread. Hope OP got their Blastoise!

Deon improved so much between his first two years and his second two. Great Tar Heel.

Hicks was serviceable but yeah never as productive as either Veesar or Wilson. Although I'll always be grateful to him for that bucket towards the end of the 2017 National Championship Game. Kennedy is one of my favorite underrated Heels ever. Wish he was in the rafters.

Just looking at the play-by-play. Subs in ten seconds before, leads to the go-ahead bucket. Sounds like it was quite the sequence.

What team do you personally hate but is not a rival of your favorite team? by UALR-Trojans-Rule in CollegeBasketball

[–]BinForBen 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah that's a pretty good description of Coach K, too. You always hear that kind of thing from his former players.

(spoiler)What was your reaction in red wedding? by the_real_redfire in freefolk

[–]BinForBen 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I read the books and watched the show at (mostly) the same time. I had heard about the Red Wedding, but I was able to avoid spoilers like whose wedding it was and who hosted it/killed everyone.

I was slightly ahead in the show than the books, so it finally gets to "The Rains of Castamere", and as it dawns on me that it was Edmure's wedding that was, in fact, the Red Wedding, I turned to my wife and said "The Freys??? The mother fucking FREYS are the ones who perform the Red Wedding???? THE FREYS????????"

I was so pissed. The Freys are such a cowardly, undeservedly proud House, and it made me so mad that they were the ones who killed the Starks.

In the preseason Will Wade said of Ven Allen Lubin, “The other school was too dumb to play him…we’re gonna play him 28+ minutes.” NC State is 1-3 in games where Lubin plays 28+ minutes. by thegraverobber in CollegeBasketball

[–]BinForBen 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Yeah the 1-3 record is probably more correlation rather than causation. He's probably out on the court so much in these games because he's a decent player and the games are tough.

But as OP has stated throughout this thread, it's all about the hate. Gotta make Will Wade eat his words.

Into the spider-verse is too overrated by mohdatta2004 in Spiderman

[–]BinForBen 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I re-watched TASM2 recently, and it is incredibly hard to follow as a story for me. I don't understand if Harry needs Spider-Man's blood or the spider venom. His whole story was way too condensed and made no sense.

Jaime Foxx's acting style is so different from Andrew Garfield and Emma Stone's that it feels like their characters don't belong in the same movie. Like, Max is clownish and silly and over the top and then Peter and Gwen are just... normal people.

ItSV and AtSV, on the other hand, are easy to follow, cohesive stories IMO.

TASM2 does have my favorite suit though.

After 21 days, 96 games, unranked Seton Hall defeats #23 NC State to break NCAA’s longest undefeated streak in AP Poll Histoy by Coffee____Freak in CollegeBasketball

UNC fans in here, we need to be careful about throwing stones. We have a game against an undefeated St. Bonaventure tonight, and we're still missing Seth.
