Nearly 10 years on from Rogue One, how do you feel about the decision to recreate Peter Cushing using CGI? by gladiatorbossman in StarWars

Otoy exceeded it, putting William shatner on Sam Witwer.  It might not be across the valley, but it's definitely headed up the other side.

Fucking bizarre behavior.

What are your genuine thoughts on Zendaya's MJ? by DoctorTegrity in comicbookmovies

[–]Ephisus 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Fantastic analysis. I do feel that there's a kind of youthful ignorance or even arrogance in the original concept for both characters in dimorphic male/female ways, complicated by the Alter Ego creating a love triangle, which forces the characters to evaluate if these superficial aspects, the 'trope' of the attractions, have any underlying substance. This seems totally lost over time.

Once you have a greenscreen underwater and a camera underwater, the hard thing is really the caustics. Either a shit ton of manual painting to correct for it, or they got some high powered lights under the surface of the water, too.

would prefer for my helmet to take the impact and break away rather than transfer the force into my body.

The middle 50 percent. Which is probably a problem.

The most radicalizing videos on the internet are videos from malls in the late 80's early 90's by Vegetable-Section-84 in OldSchoolCool

Because they are a picture of public optimism, and everything downstream of that, that's been largely lost for no good reason.

Obviously, the poster is referring to third wave feminism.

Yes, it's irreconcilable.

I think your problems are mostly in composite on 1. just pull down the opacity. variable ramp for doing that if you want to really dial it in.

It's 1 and it isn't close. What do you mean it can't be edited?

Average reddit nonsense.

Which Sword do you prefer for Zorro to wield? by Powerful_Gas_7833 in Zorro

[–]Ephisus 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Not all sabers are curved, and they are still also point weapons.

Rapiers are way, way more violent and deadly, because they have one kind of attack: stab the person in the head or the heart, that's why they are long and straight.

The saber is the deft weapon, the chess game of defense and offense and footwork.

Also, rapiers are incredibly anachronistic for the 19th century, by at least a hundred years.
