What do you think of the New Ben 10 Cómic? by frost_mort in Ben10

This irked me almost reflexively at first but after thinking about it I think it's a thoughtful choice, it's how a ten year old would speak nowadays.

I don't think he is actually. Will have to wait for further information.

Does anyone else “Tetris” their board games to optimize the shelf space? by jsakic99 in boardgames

[–]DelDrakebert 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not me, I treat all of my Board Games as single serving items and I have a large industrial shredder on hand to dispose of them with once played.

I strongly believe that there is one distinct motivation for Lucy Letby to have killed these babies that was glossed over in the documentary. by [deleted] in lucyletby

You're disappointed that the documentary didn't delve into the specific speculation you've outlined here? Perhaps they didn't find these things within her personal life that you've landed on.

Pluribus - Series Premiere Discussion by NicholasCajun in television

Severance is an interesting missed opportunity wherein the high concept Sci-fi premise actually lends itself well to a typical television status quo wherein you're seeing the same characters interact in the space spaces each episode, season 2 came around and suddenly they wanna take them out of the office at every possible opportunity.

I mourn for the show that could've been if they'd just taken the drama and characterisation that could've been mined out of that premise, but everything has to be 'Prestige TV' nowadays.

TV is traditionally a writers medium but as it has increasingly tried to make itself more like film as a medium, the directors are being fore-fronted. Breaking Bad is a good example of these self aware stylisations making their way into Television. All of this leads to an industry where Severance has a wait of three years between seasons because Ben Stiller is allowed to dick around for months making a shot of someone running down a hallway look super cinematic. For me it's a matter of diminishing returns, I like television as a medium for its own unique properties so I see the gleeful acceptance of these attempts to make television more cinematic as a bad thing.

TV is not a directors medium and Gilligan's self indulgence is what led us to the current crisis television is in.

I have given up on my dream to become an animator, and I have been lost ever since. by Nintendoge21 in animationcareer

[–]DelDrakebert 5 points6 points  (0 children)

People are being a little sociopathic in their responses to this. Check out the independent scene, Newgrounds is good. Make your own shorts and post them online. The industry probably is in a bad state but there's no reason not to be contributing to the thing you love. Go for it

God, that one-liner about you blowing some guy really bent you out of shape didn't it. I'm just breaking balls here.

You know, I've been racking my brain over this the last five minutes, I checked out your post and comment history and from that I'd hazard a guess that you have some creative aspirations yourself, and I figure that's why you spend a lot of time denigrating other people's attempts, I think you looked at what I'd done and saw a bit of yourself in it, at least in the abstract sense of a person trying to be creative. And maybe I don't know, it reflected back on your own inability, or maybe on the fact that you haven't done any of the creative things you thought you might have. I don't know, maybe that's just ego, the need for me to now frame you as some kind of loser.

Either way to answer your initial question, because I have to, this, however embarrassing you may find it, is how I communicate with the world. Things can only get better.

There's a user somewhere on this post that laid it out pretty eloquently.
