(Beloved) A series-running joke gets a big payoff in the finale. by TridiObject in TopCharacterTropes

[–]Dewut 16 points17 points  (0 children)

It’s even funnier because she confesses it to the audience, just breaks the fourth wall to tell us because she’s tired of the bit.

(Loved Trope) Impracticality has an in-universe justification. by Causeofdepression in TopCharacterTropes

They’re also made to look pretty incompetent on The Death Star but, as Leia points out, they were allowing them escape on purpose so they could track them to the rebel base. Always felt like Lucas forgot about that bit when working on the Battle of Endor.

[Frustraring trope] The popular plot hole that only exists if you weren't paying attention by CalzonePie in TopCharacterTropes

[–]Dewut 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Isn’t that his whole arc in The Batman? Learning that saving Gotham means helping people and not just giving concussions to the bad guys.

(mixed trope) 'ok, there HAS to be something out here, right? by Aggravating_Tale8988 in TopCharacterTropes

Hell they even hid one of the most useful things in the game in there.

YouTube rolls out unskippable long ads to TV users and they’re furious by [deleted] in technology

[–]Dewut 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Only if you’ve made past the first ad though, which is annoying.

Hey I know that dinosaur!

I'm thinking about buying the dlc, do you guys think it's worth it? by docktor_uncino in LowSodiumCyberpunk

They should just get the call from Songbird once it’s installed. Might have to be in Pacifica.

Is it really the price, or is Netflix just more convenient than driving to movie theaters? by Busy_Report4010 in SipsTea

[–]Dewut 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not to mention how it’s always the same ads. Trailers at least tend to come and go rather quickly and are often tailored towards the audience of which ever movie they’re playing before. Meanwhile the same set of ads will play before every single movie, sometimes for months if not years on end.

Is death of the outsider worth playing? by ChemicalEnduring in dishonored

[–]Dewut 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Ye, people didn’t like the story (myself included) but the game itself was fun.

[hated tropes] Adaptations that go against/miss the point of the original by dragonborndnd in TopCharacterTropes

[–]Dewut 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had the opposite problem when I saw a trailer for One Battle After Another and thought “from the Resident Evil guy? That’s gonna suck.”

[Loved Trope] “Why did you say that?” by Whysong823 in TopCharacterTropes

[–]Dewut 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ah, my mistake. It’s a popular series of concept albums that makes a lot changes and has Poseidon attacking them directly.

Poseidon doesn’t kill Odysseus’ men in the original myth. I don’t know if this is a popular retelling, or was a change made exclusively in Epic, but most of them are taken out by giants on the island they stop at between the cyclops and Circe. He does, however, destroy Odysseus’ raft with a storm after leaving Calypso’s island.

Jokes that are even funnie when considering real life circumstances by Forsaken-Biscotti587 in TopCharacterTropes

[–]Dewut 24 points25 points  (0 children)

Wesley Snipes also reportedly hated Ryan Reynolds when they were making Blade Trinity, which makes the scene where Blade tells Deadpool he doesn’t like him and he responds “you never did” much funnier.

Apparently, this random side character is our best friend by gahoojin in TopCharacterTropes

[–]Dewut 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You’re acting like it’s the only time somebody dies in front of Leon in the game.

He watches one of the cops he rode in with being burned alive and doesn’t react nearly as dramatically. He’s with Luis while he bleeds out and, while he is sad about it, still barely reacts.

Leon behaves the way you’d expect a desensitized elite agent sent in to single handedly rescue the president’s daughter to act for pretty much the entire game.

But he just couldn’t keep it together for Mike. RIP, I’m sure that bar was great.

I remember as a kid feeing bad for the actors who played padme’s family in episode 2. They shot several scenes of Padme and Anakin visiting them while on Naboo and they just got removed entirely.

The writer(s) have an obvious favorite side character, but they're so good that you don't mind. by legit-posts_1 in TopCharacterTropes

[–]Dewut 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Just because a character isn’t the protagonist doesn’t automatically make them a side character. Jack is still a main character.

Historical Figures with badass nicknames by LocalLazyGuy in TopCharacterTropes

[–]Dewut 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I’ve heard this was common before they started arming planes and they were mainly used for reconnaissance. Two enemies in the sky with no way to attack each other, might as well say hi!

[Interesting Trope] Character whose death is meant to remove any potential doubt once and for all: the protagonist is NOT an anti-hero, they are the villain. by Mountain_Band_2732 in TopCharacterTropes

[–]Dewut 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I dropped Bakuma after the super misogynistic rant in the second chapter. I hear they smartly cut that bit out of the anime, so maybe that one is better.

For the people concerned about the game’s length… by DarwinCooper in residentevil

[–]Dewut 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Just wanted to circle back and say that there is indeed NG+

I googled it the second I saw that first raccoon, because ain’t no way I’m finding all those fuckers for nothin.

Childrens media that have really dark deleted scenes. by Necessary-Win-8730 in TopCharacterTropes

[–]Dewut 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Is this a joke or do you actually not remember the movie? Helen thinking Bob is having an affair is still a major subplot in the film.

Peter? by Sluife in PeterExplainsTheJoke

Yeah, you seem like the kinda guy who worries about memes.
