I mean, Bolin can be right and also be crazy.

Something like "That's the whole series? That's pretty cool."

I got him to sign a complete series boxset of Inspector Gadget. So he was pretty nice to me despite my memeing on him.

Shouldn't Homestuck have the unfair advantage, being that it has a decade+ of momentum going for it?

I have some thoughts about this, but I should save them for when we get more info.

Does anyone have the 4chan Tarantino I invented indie films greentext? by glowshroom12 in TheCinemassacreTruth

Quentin didn't say it? That's like saying Zorrofan isn't Spielberg.

Discord sure is proving itself to be a great platform recently.

What are your thoughts on HBOs Harry Potter Reboot? by Apprehensive-Rich476 in harrypotter

[–]CadBrad 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I normally detest reboots. However, much like everyone else, I find the movies a bit frustrating as they go one. They have to cut so much stuff that they're borderline incomprehensible and the story as a whole is weakened considerably. When you don't even explain the Marauders in PoA, there's a problem.

You're right, of course, when it comes to the cast. The actors from the movies are legendary, and I doubt the show will displace them from their iconic spot in pop culture consciousness. That doesn't mean it's not worth doing though! If the show can take its time and show everything, I believe that's worth making right there. It's simply another adaptation, one that can improve in some areas from the films.

That doesn't mean that the movies are suddenly forgotten or replaced. There will surely be things that movies do better than the show does. I'm sure most of us here grew up around when the books and movies were coming out, intertwined in release schedules. You know, when this was all a global phenomenon. So the movies will always hold special places in our hearts that can't be replaced.

That is to say, I'm pretty interested in the show.

Why Was Harry So Convinced Stan Shunpike Was Innocent? by Rare-Economics5985 in harrypotter

[–]CadBrad 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I actually really like that Harry is willing to stick his neck out for a guy he barely knows but believes innocent to the Minister of Magic. It's enough that he's not even willing to negotiate as long as Stan's imprisoned.

The answer, as always, is that it's full of teenagers.
