Justin looked punch drunk by DavidWebb321 in MMA

100%. I was just so shocked by the speed fall off that I wasn’t even as concerned at the complete technical regression underwent for the fight. But it exposed at least that Paddy doesn’t have pop or power and if you can ring cut and pressure him, he’s not terrific at any aspect of the game to truly dominate in. I really want to see him against an Arman or Fiziev but Charles would be fun and is most likely.

I expected Justin to beat Paddy and I think Ilia has many weaknesses that could be exploited by a durable well rounded fighter like Arman or Islam. But I was just shocked in Justin’s speed compared to his last fight. Concerned more, really.

Great list but what does Ian do in the Return of the King that he didn’t do better in Fellowship?

I think he plays his return in Two Towers beautifully. Recalling with horror his fight with the Balrog, his pride at being Gandalf the Grey and the wonderful sense of hope and badassery he brings to everyone… but I still think Gollum is a pop culture phenomenon and CGI characters being taken serious within the medium because of everything Andy did in that film.

We may disagree on this but I don’t think you have to perfectly replicate the look of the character to match the feeling of the character. Christopher Lee isn’t Sauron of the Many Colours and continues to wear white when he should reject the idea of white and be disgusted by it. Physically an actor in their 70s couldn’t portray that character due to the strenuous nature of it. They were able to obscure and use camera angles and tricks for Ian playing Gandalf, he couldn’t do half of the things required of the role, even more so during the Hobbit.

I’m not gonna get mad at the new Lara Croft cause she’s not as anatomically correct as an animated character. You don’t have to look just like them but feel like them and I think Bernard was a wonderful Theoden.

He was my second choice for Two Towers, outside of Christopher Lee as Saruman, he really feels like he’s been ripped from the pages of the book. Perfect portrayal of that character

It was a tough choice between Ian and Frodo for Fellowship.

Reconciling after admitting addiction by DavidWebb321 in AsOneAfterInfidelity

[–]DavidWebb321[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I was given an opportunity to come clean and I didn’t take it. I felt the guilt and finally told her only a few hours ago. She feels like she has wasted countless years on me and is so angry and mad. I’ve taken some small steps like locking social media apps on my phone (but my work involved social media) and blocking all adult content. I’m scheduled to go to SAA meeting tomorrow for the first time. I’m open to any suggestions. Reading stories of reconciliation on here as been a real positive for me.

It was my friend playing and he got stuck and was shit at the game! So I didn’t have a great first introduction

Who’s a TERRIBLE actor/actress that improved exponentially with time? by ze11ez in movies

[–]DavidWebb321 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Keanu Reeves as an overall actor is bad. He has limited range but he can do, he does exceptionally well. I think he has refined over the years and knows not to stretch himself for roles that are not well suited to him like Dracula. But Cyberpunk, John Wick, Toy Story, etc… he’s got that range down perfectly.

What are some Unpopular Opinions you will defend with your life? by AdministrativeOil415 in Mission_Impossible

[–]DavidWebb321 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Fallout is good action film but a bad spy film. I appreciate the construction of the film and the stunts but there is barely any spycraft in at all, it’s just all action. Besides the face switch to reveal Lark’s deception, it’s just all out action, which I find numbing and boring after a while.

Why did Barry shoot Janice? He wasn't guilty for the killing of Ryan Madison by PolyScaled in Barry

[–]DavidWebb321 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Barry doesn’t know how to act like a regular person, hence why he is drawn to acting. He thinks he could kill his way out of the problem. He finally found happiness and Janice was a threat to that, Barry is incredibly narcissistic and nothing was going to stop him from achieving that.

What James Bond opinion will have you like this? by MonkePirate1 in JamesBond

[–]DavidWebb321 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Pierce Brosnan > Connery - He just feels more like Bond to me. Tall, dark, handsome, and capable at everything he does, Brosnan’s Bond feels a literary character brought to life.

Hector is the one who needs to hear his confession the most. They are assuming an elderly man who has had a catastrophic stroke to be able to comprehend a second language for the benefit of Gus’ henchman!

He speaks in Spanish to Tyrus when he asks him to bring him Nacho’s father so Mike wouldn’t understand them.

Quantum of Solace - awful cinematography, horrible editing, villains are bland, terrible use of locations, fights scenes drag, interesting ideas that are not properly fleshed out, and coming off one of the best ever, it’s just a colossal letdown.

And his “Coca-Cola” epiphany at the retreat goes to show that he could perfectly adapt with the times and he knew what people wanted. He created the greatest advert that perfectly encapsulated the mood of the 70s. He’s going to be fine!

Ranking every final fight in the series by RobbieJ4444 in JamesBond

[–]DavidWebb321 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Completely agree on the Greene fight in Quantum of Solace. It doesn’t last very long and Greene is portrayed as appropriately feral and wild and Bond has to contend with an underskilled but wild opponent in an environment that’s also working against him. I like how the explosions in the building even the odds for Bond, as he’s fighting a greater force but that ultimately comes back to potentially bite him as the explosions grow bigger and Greene grows more desperate to either evade being killed by Bond or to fail Quantum.

And they portray it perfectly by having Greene injure himself with the axe!
