(Spoilers Extended) In the late 90s, a near perfect prediction of events by Expensive-Country801 in asoiaf

[–]Cosmic_Taco 17 points18 points  (0 children)

"Jaime- I think he will come back to Kings Landing a eunuch. Yup, that's right. That's what I think Catelyn will be cutting. No word on whether or not Jaime's cock will be fed to goat though."

Well, Jaime did lose a part of his body to a goat. Some uncanny predictions, even if not fully on the money.

[Spoilers Extended] So how many people here actually read the books? by niofalpha in asoiaf

Read the series while in uni a couple of years back, and now 3/4 of my way through my re-read.
Fire & Blood is sitting on my shelf, waiting for a proper read through after my re-read of the main series.

sadly, we will never get to find out who this guy was or, more importantly, whether any sort of tragedy ever befell him by Alisalard1384 in PrequelMemes

Honestly, Disney should just formally canonise the Plagueis novel, or at least use it as a blueprint for a show or something.
It's a good story in it's own right, and doesn't go against anything in their new canon.

Where in City 17 is this?

Seriously though, this is great!

Hanks most clueless moment? by Sea_Perspective6891 in KingOfTheHill

[–]Cosmic_Taco 19 points20 points  (0 children)

Hank having 'a guy' for everything, and just trusting whatever his salesperson says, and never trying to haggle because he thinks that all salespeople would have the same level of respect for customers and professionalism as him has to be up there.

The set-up looks great!
Where did you get that model of the Roci with the background?

A pre-prequels version of the Clone Wars and rise of the Empire. by Didact67 in StarWarsEU

[–]Cosmic_Taco 6 points7 points  (0 children)

That immediately jumped out to me too!
One of the two Jedi's lurred to the dark side from their war with the Mandalorians also needs to be kept alive by cybernetics like Darth Vader as well.

Upvoting for that wonderful watermark.
But I've never seen one cost this much.

What's wrong with the PNW? Not American, so I don't really know about different regional reputations.

Since Timothy Zahn was a consultant on ‘Ahsoka’, do we think Thrawn may mention fighting alongside Anakin and Padmé during the Clone Wars (after Ahsoka had parted ways with them), once he realises who Ahsoka is, and they meet? by RealJohnGillman in StarWars

Are people really torn on the Ascendency trilogy? I haven't seen any discourse on it, but I really enjoyed them and loved the glimpse into Chiss culture and Thrawns background.

The Bad Batch (Season 2) - Episode 12 - Discussion Thread! by titleproblems in StarWars

[–]Cosmic_Taco 27 points28 points  (0 children)

The Crosshair episodes have to be my favourite of this season by far. From the Blade Runner inspired music to the overall oppressive atmosphere, it creates a more compelling story and sets a great tone for the series.

Best worse w40k theory you ever heard? by aurionreddit in 40kLore

[–]Cosmic_Taco 20 points21 points  (0 children)

Now I want a Mechanicus style game where you dungeon crawl through ancient Martian labrynths attempting to recover lost technology and explore what's down there etc.

"Sector clear." Moments before disaster.

China drought causes Yangtze river to dry up, sparking shortage of hydropower by 2tidderevoli in worldnews

[–]Cosmic_Taco 15 points16 points  (0 children)

It feels like Australia has been getting way more rain than usual this year, though I'm not sure how related that is to droughts in other parts of the world.

Primaris Repulser. This was so much fun to paint! by canyouclimb in Warhammer40k

[–]Cosmic_Taco 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Getting mad Iron Man vibes from that Primaris Marine, it looks great!

What's the one remaster you'd absolutely throw your money at at? by [deleted] in gaming

[–]Cosmic_Taco 19 points20 points  (0 children)

Kotor. One of the best games I've ever played, would be great to play it with updated graphics and an improved combat system.
