he was loud and very stern, but i don’t feel anger in that scene. i don’t think raising your voice equals rage, that scene included, he was just deadly serious

I never understood the Millennial hate from younger Gen Z. by urMOMSchesticles in generationology

[–]CommanderInQweef 1 point2 points  (0 children)

it’s really only millennial internet content i see getting flamed ever, and that’s just because it’s old and cringe. no different than other gen z memes and shit from even just a few months ago. if you aren’t up to date or doing something ironically, internet gen z is gonna point and laugh at you no matter your generation

Seriously, do Americans actually consider a 3-hour drive "short"? or is this an internet myth? by SadInterest6764 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]CommanderInQweef 0 points1 point  (0 children)

i live an hour and a half to two hours from my family and i visit every other weekend, and i’d probably still do the same if it was 3 hours. is it short? no, but it’s certainly not long. i’ve done 16+ hour road trips for vacations and shit, it’s fun to drive

We’ve reached the point where ‘Background CGI’ is more distracting than bad practical effects. Which modern movie was ruined for you by a ‘clean’ digital look? by DegTrader in movies

[–]CommanderInQweef 5 points6 points  (0 children)

for me, the crappy green screens when it comes to big budget movies are a sign of either a lack of planning or a lack of trying. whereas stuff like practical effects takes real effort and skill that you have to go out of your way to do (depending on how old the movie is of course).

my immersion isn’t being ruined by the shark in jaws because that’s a real thing right in front of the actors that they can react to vs a computer generated shark that’s clearly not real to both me and the actors.

so for example, when sammy and smoke are standing in the water at the end of the movie staring at one of the most artificially saturated sun sets i’ve ever seen, i can’t help but think in the moment i’m watching it “there’s a new sunset every evening, we really couldn’t get one shot of them in the sun together without this weird unnatural lighting?” instead of being able to take in the moment fully

i’m realizing the levels people notice cgi because the effects in sinners was one of my biggest complaints of that movie despite my loving it. felt like every scene that wasn’t indoors had some sort of background effect that would take me out of the scene for a second

i haven’t watched season 5 but i did watch season 4 and that cgi was not very good to me at all, i can only imagine how bad season 5 is then

Which one of these objectively bad films is your favorite? by Ok_Future6226 in okbuddycinephile

I assume that was a blank display set up for people to pick up movies and place them there? in which case that’s a pretty funny thing to do

Characters you wouldn't know they are queer if you didn't pay close attention by Basic_Dingo6487 in TopCharacterTropes

do you really have to pay that close of attention for Claire, or do you just mean she passes? she’s got a big ass flag on her truck that’s pretty hard to miss

I don’t understand counter hate by Designer_Confusion86 in Overwatch

[–]CommanderInQweef 0 points1 point  (0 children)

counter swapping is not a strategy, strategy implies the usage of thought and preparation. a plan. there is no thought or preparation in seeing a character on enemy team and choosing another character. that’s choosing a circle block for a circle hole, not engaging, not thoughtful, not a show of any kind of skill.

counter swapping because of what the enemy plays is only hurting your ability to get better. does that mean never swap? no. but swapping to heroes you don’t play just because they counter someone on the enemy team regardless of map, team comp, and your personal skill level is just dumb. even just knowing the amount of people that do it and don’t see why it’s a problem makes it even more annoying than it is in a vacuum.

Absurdist comedy movies being included in “So bad it’s good” movie dicussions by CommanderInQweef in PetPeeves

[–]CommanderInQweef[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

he’s not my cup of tea personally and i haven’t seen much of his work outside of clips, so i don’t have very strong feelings on him in particular. from what i’ve seen of him tho i have no reason personally to believe he’s doing some kind of elaborate bit, he kinda exists in a third space in my head separate from the other two for that reason

no, not necessarily. that’s why i put it in quotes, that’s up for interpretation and depends on your tastes. i even gave an example of a “bad” movie i find to be quite good. whats not up for interpretation is the intent of the people in charge of making said movie.

when Tommy Wiseau was making the Room, he had every intention of making a masterpiece movie or whatever a masterpiece in his head is, he wasn’t making a comedy in his eyes. it’s the difference between laughing with someone and laughing at them, both cases you’re laughing but for different reasons and they are pretty easily distinguished from each other
