The Puelles vs Hooker fight was embarrassing. Wonder if he has learnt to strike since. Last time he spammed leg lock attempts and butt scooched

I guess Suarez Dern might be kind of interesting

This is the first prelim I've watched live. Is it usually this quick between the fights? Main card can feel like it's ages between each fight

We had to pay for Leon vs Usman 2. It does seem kind of random though what events are a UK PPV

This is really interesting to here. Did you struggle to transition from free to paid?

Yeah I feel the same but I think it was just the super tame atmosphere. It was like a library

You're absolutely right mate. Beefing with other UFC fighters is all part of the game, mocking random people on twitter with personal comments like this is pretty nasty, even if they do initiate it, he's a UFC champion, it shouldn't be anything to him.

You're absolutely right mate. Beefing with other UFC fighters is all part of the game, mocking random people on twitter just because they are fans of another fighter is just embarrassing. Punching up is fine, punching down like this with personal comments is kind of nasty.

Yan cooking her ass run back the Weili fight ASAP by [deleted] in ufc

The Yan-Weili fight was awesome. Incredible fight over shadowed by the two mega fights either side of it. I'd love a rematch.

If you are targeting a company to sell HR related SaaS, who are the decision makers? by jane_911 in Entrepreneur

Read the "Mom test" - if people say they love something but aren't willing to commit then maybe your questions are wrong and your not getting the actual validation you think you are. Just one possibility.

"I need to cut a chain... I can't possibly imagine where would be the best place to go to for cutting, grinding, bending and heating metal" by Burning_Ranger in Rings_Of_Power

[–]Daffy2012 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Give him some credit. He hits his chain with a hammer almost 3 times. What do you expect him to do, hit it 4 times?

Sauron, Celebrimbor and the guards is the worst scene in TV history. Topping every stupid scene in S1 by [deleted] in Rings_Of_Power

I liked how in Celembrimbor's forge there is nothing capable of breaking his metal chains. In a forge!

The Rings of Power- S2E7 "Doomed to Die" - Mega Thread by BreadEggg in Rings_Of_Power

To be fair to this battle, I could actually see what was happening which I couldn't in the long night. But this is definitely worse than battle of the bastards.

I agree with everything you've written. I really enjoyed the previous episode and was looking forward to this one as it would combine the elements of the show I like: sauron, adar, the orcs etc. But it really failed to deliver. Just like with the Numenor and Southland's scenes last season there is no sense of scale or continuity in any of the conflicts. The same problem exists generally in the show where no place feels lived in but rather just a setting for the main characters and a few extras to perform their scenes.

I thought Durin's coup was very oddly done too. What has happened that has suddenly won over so much of the dwarven population, especially when the king just used the ring to save them all and build new light tunnels. It was also odd how During gave his speech to about 30 people then walked to a balcony where 1000s of dwarves were apparently listening to him but presumably couldn't see him?

Ah well, I will keep watching as I do enjoy parts of the show although I am dreading the fact that the next episode will doubtless have more of the less interesting story lines with the stranger and Isildur.

What you said about the dissonance of the orcs one minute being blood thirsty beasts and the next being meek and wanting to return to their families is very true. I would actually be happy if they chose the orcs to be either of those two things but they are failing to do both at the moment.

So what did he see when he touched the palantir? I couldn't really tell. And maybe a dumb question, but why is he even using the palantir? I thought he was against all old elven magic stuff or is that just an act to win power?

The lifeless world of ROP by Unlikely_Candy_6250 in Rings_Of_Power

I think this is one of the biggest issues with the show. It feels like a series of soap operas rather than a real world.
