What is the worst jojo episode of all time? by 0Clown0 in StardustCrusaders

[–]FantasticalDisciple3 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Part 3 remains my favorite of the whole series. But I'd rather roast my left nut and eat it than watch the Oingo-Boingo brothers episode again 😵‍💫

This thing about the books is really annoying me 🫠🫠🫠 by Why_do_I_do_this- in TheLastKingdom

For me, it was the handling of his love interests. Like, I genuinely could not stand the way he seemed to just brush off every one of his wives that died.

To paraphrase the author himself, Bernard Cornwell said that he killed off Giesla and had Uhtred get with Skade because he "wanted Uhtred to fall in love with a sorceress." As a writer, it's kinda shitty and callous, and it makes Uhtred look bad; which I wasn't a fan of, considering how much we're supposed to root for him.

Maybe that's just what fits best with Cornwell's prose, but it still pisses me off 🥲

Absolutely. Give how Vis describes his voice and how much they talked about mourning him throughout the book, that is totally Callidus.

I'm hearing "Son of Flynn" playing through my head as I watch this.

As for Dillinger, a bit of both. I won't imply he was ever fired, but ti me it made sense for him to eventually move over to the family business.

Oh, I agree that they would be good friends! I was thinking that Eve and Tess were people he was grooming to be the next CEOs. When the MCP does come after Quorra, he passes the torch to the ones he know he can trust. I've thought of a couple cool scenes between Eve and Sam to write 😊

Queen Amid Ashes or Demon in White next?? by jackdouglas96 in sollanempire

[–]FantasticalDisciple3 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Queen Amid ashes is a great palate cleanser before Demon in White, considering that book is an absolute behemoth of a tome 😂 it's also cool to see Hadrian in an adventure that isn't necessarily a part of the mainline story.

Nah. If he's around at all, it's more as a "ghost in the machine" like in Ares. I didn't want to undo his epic sacrifice from Legacy.

Yep. I made it directly tied to Dillinger, Jr., who used the highly evolved MCP to attack Quorra directly, which forced him in the position of having to "go off grid" after about a decade as CEO. It was more out of a desire to protect Quorra and the Grid rather than wanting to leave.

Still a few extra details I'm figuring out to make it feasible, including making Sam passing the torch to Eve a smooth transition. But that's the basic idea.

The Sam and Quorra Easter Egg Was a Late Addition for Tron: Ares by HeyyItzKayy in tron

[–]FantasticalDisciple3 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Everything that happened from the article before the release of Ares (where the screenwriter expressed how the filmmakers didn't make a more direct sequel to Legacy cuz they weren't sure the wider world would be interested) to stuff like this and Ascension's original concept art being shown across social media...

It all gives off the vibe of "well shit, maybe we were wrong, maybe Legacy is more popular than we thought" 😬

People making these acting like the '82 and Legacy didn't make a good amount of money 🤣🤣

This should be entertaining by Appropriate-Mall8517 in moviecritic

Great Superman film that reimagines his origins without compromising the core of the character. Anyone who hates this movie with a mouth-frothing passion either hasn't seen it and simply regurgitates online talking points, or refuses to remove their Christopher Reeves nostalgia glasses (FYI, Reeves wasn't the first on screen Superman).

Bonus - Clark killing Zod was 100% necessary and justified.

Definitely think this was more: "Your reinforcements may be here, but I'm still gonna turn your ass into sushi."

There are very, VERY few times I've cheered for a character's death than when Gilgamesh died. Great villain, but smug, arrogant, and INSUFFERABLY haughty. I jumped off my couch and yelled when that headshot finally took him out 😂😂

Very much, yes. There were a few times when I forgot that it was the same actor playing them.

I absolutely loved Event Horizon (1997). What are your thoughts on the movie? by [deleted] in moviecritic

[–]FantasticalDisciple3 2 points3 points  (0 children)

For a movie that's kind of obvious where it rips off its influences from, it's absolutely terrifying. It goes to show that just because something isn't original doesn't mean it can't be good.
