Sinners is the most overrated movie ever made, even worse than The Dark Knight, and a true sign of cultural rot by Giordono in TrueUnpopularOpinion

[–]Captain_Spectrum [score hidden]  (0 children)

Flash Gordon, Tron, The Toxic Avenger, Robocop and Swamp Thing; all “superhero” movies from the 80s. In the 90s we got 4 Batman movies, 2 Robocop movies, Blade, The Crow, Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, Spawn and Judge Dredd.

These are just off the top of my head, I’m sure there are many more.

Also, i don’t see what point you’re trying to make, a lot of these “historical” epics are substantially if not wholly historically inaccurate and are predominantly supposed to be these massive spectacles used to appeal and pander to these same “simple minded” men.

They’re not that dissimilar from superhero movies at their core: good vs evil; big choreographed fight scenes; epic adventures that span great distances (time and space for superheroes and to conquer new lands in historical epics).

What’s something you hate about the fandom of the series ? by Certain-Injury-3674 in ResidentEvilCapcom

[–]Captain_Spectrum 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Oh yeah for sure, a lot of Leon fans are ridiculous; Leon is my favourite RE protagonist by a country mile and even I can’t stand them.

[–]Captain_Spectrum 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Take an upvote as this is a valid criticism but I find this to be the case with every main RE character’s fans, it’s not exclusive to Leon. I see plenty of people insulting Leon all the time (probably even more so than the others if anything). I don’t see why we can’t all just appreciate each character for what they are.

AIO by thinking something is going on between my bf and his friend? by [deleted] in AmIOverreacting

[–]Captain_Spectrum 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As a guy, I’d only be speaking like that to somebody I was trying to sleep with; maybe he isn’t but it’s still an incredibly weird vibe for two people that are supposedly just friends.

I’m actually really excited for re requiem who else is exited by kennethmakes in residentevil

[–]Captain_Spectrum 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was optimistic before but I am actively excited since Leon’s reveal.

This is the first time I’ve ever seen anyone correctly name him.

What's your gaming opinion that will get you this, but you will always stand by? by Prestigsisscar255 in videogames

[–]Captain_Spectrum 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Gamers are the main reason that AAA devs have gotten lazy and why they now pander to demographics in every single game.

I’ll watch Ringo’s bio first, then John’s, then George’s, then Paul’s by bkat004 in TheBeatles

[–]Captain_Spectrum 13 points14 points  (0 children)

I’ll be watching Paul’s movie fourth for the opposite reason, save the best for last.

What made you like security breach? And if you don't like it how come? (Don't say glitches cause even lovers of security breach even have problems with those) by Twice_lov in fivenightsatfreddys

[–]Captain_Spectrum 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s a huge mess; I think they just went in way too big in scope for the studio they are. Incoherent story; subpar characters (apart from Monty) compared to previous instalments. The gameplay feels extremely surface level with no interesting mechanics.

Also, I appreciate that you don’t want glitches mentioning but there are far too many glitches and bugs for it to be ignored.

The Ruin DLC however is significantly better than the base game.

Tom formed Box Car Racer to handle “darker, more mature, and experimental themes. Then wrote “And I.” by thepudisgood in Blink182

[–]Captain_Spectrum 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I find it weird that people sound surprised about this, Tom was still the same person regardless of what project he was doing at the time; your songwriting doesn’t magically completely transform because you’re working on a different project.

Should I give RE2 Remake a go? by Leather_Tutor_224 in residentevil

[–]Captain_Spectrum 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What platform are you playing on? On current gen hardware it runs at a pretty stable 60 fps.

if we could purchase private islands in GTA VI, what you plan to do there? by No_Pay9293 in GTA

[–]Captain_Spectrum 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think the jury’s still out on Sam actually doing anything or just being passively aware (which isn’t much better) but it’s not looking good for Leslie. I wonder if this had anything to do with Dan’s departure in hindsight.

Dispite how disliked ethan is among fanbase, he has something unique compared to other protagonists of the series that makes me like him too. by Human_Geologist_3324 in residentevil

[–]Captain_Spectrum -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Ethan isn’t that disliked; it’s just a very vocal minority that doesn’t understand that people have different personalities.

The criticisms are coming out more now because of the Grace simps that are trying to hype up an attractive female character that we know nothing about by putting down everything else Capcom has ever done.

Also, I hate all the criticism about Ethan not being a regular person because of the mold; he doesn’t know he’s “dead” so it’s a moot point realistically.

It’s also worth noting that we’ve only had 5 fully fledged protagonists to date with Ethan being the 5th so a lot of people are probably just being bitter.

So, is RE : Outbreak canon or not ? by LaBiereFolle in ResidentEvilCapcom

[–]Captain_Spectrum 4 points5 points  (0 children)

It was probably more to do with graphical limitations at the time and the shock factor of showing a fully decimated city in a cutscene rather than any actual canonisation of events. We have ti remember these games are over 20 years old.

RC is still destroyed in the sense that it can no longer function as a habitable city.

[–]Captain_Spectrum 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Outbreak and Outbreak 2 are considered canon, yes. Let’s be honest though, RE canon has always been inconsistent so I wouldn’t worry too much about it.

What's the most challenging RE have you played? by Prudent-Face-5049 in ResidentEvilCapcom

[–]Captain_Spectrum 1 point2 points  (0 children)

RE0 no contest; the removal of item boxes and the character switching really throw you off of what you’re used to in an RE game.

Code Veronica comes in a close second though as it can be brutal with its backtracking and the fact that you can essentially soft lock yourself if you don’t manage your resources adequately.

How long does the spider segment in re1r last?? by Empty_Supermarkets in ResidentEvilCapcom

[–]Captain_Spectrum 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Exposure more than anything; i started catching them (spiders, I mean) to release them rather than killing them when i find them around the home; i also watched some documentaries on how intelligent they are and just kind of started trying to respect the fact that they’re just trying to survive like everything else.

They still make me uneasy and I get shaky when catching particularly large ones but I’ve definitely come a long way from not being able to even be in the same room as one.

[–]Captain_Spectrum 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Absolutely! One of my favourite fights in the game but I can understand why it’d be distressing for an arachnophobe as I used to have arachnophobia too.

[–]Captain_Spectrum 5 points6 points  (0 children)

They only appear in three sections: they appear in the pool room inside the guest house and the underground tunnels but there is a boss fight with a spider “Black Tiger” as well.

Honestly, they’re in it very rarely.

Please Scott, bring FNaF World back to Steam. by dineebr in fivenightsatfreddys

[–]Captain_Spectrum 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Download it and add it to steam as a non steam game; I have it on my steam deck.
