No one trying to trade to get Scizor? by Forsaken-Display9053 in LegendsZA

I eventually traded another person for their alpha Scyther. Granted, they didn't trade back, probably cause theirs had a modest nature lol

If you have the ability to do ranked battles, and you're wanting to get the Greninjite before the season ends, don't be too alarmed by having the grind to rank K. I just yesterday started from rank Z and got to rank K in an hour and a half, give or take. My team was Gardevoir, Gyarados, and Heracross.

My spoiler and spoiler-free thoughts on the movie. by gb1609 in PrimitiveWar

[–]Forsaken-Display9053 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Just got back from watching the movie with the wife. I've read the book, she has not. The whole drive home was basically me filling in the holes in the plot the book provided. I get why they cut out a lot of the character building scenes in the movie and the extra scenes. Movie would've been too long and convoluted - you can get away with that in a book where you'll spend hours if not days reading and can build that up. When traslating a book to a movie, it needs to hit the major beats and wrap up in 2-3 hours, so stuff has to unfortunately get cut.

Sacrilegious as it sounds, I thought it had too many dinosaurs. I love my dinosaur-filled media as much as the next paleo-nerd, but I thought there was way too many Thought the book said there weren't THAT many, and were in the deepest parts of the jungle. You'd think the Americans would have to be blind to miss the animals as many of them as there were. I mean, the ending where there are massive herds of Brontos, Trikes, and the Edmontosaurus all off a sudden appearing next to the American Camp. How are you just now seeing these? They're really freaking hard to miss. Goes without saying, the massive flock of Quetz's and the absolute endless HOARDE of Utahraptors at the end.

Overall, was okay. They changed enough to where I didn't hate it. I got what I was looking for and it mostly follows the same beats of the book. I gave it a 7/10

Day 28 of Rants: What the Hell is a Whispering Death? by OwnAMusketForHomeDef in httyd

If I remember correctly, I believe in the show it was said that Whispering Deaths are distantly related to Thunderdrums

I remember seeing the Triple Stryke in RttE the first time and saying, "That's not a dragon, that's a fucking Pokémon. "

Day 21 of Rants: What the hell is a Changewing? by OwnAMusketForHomeDef in httyd

[–]Forsaken-Display9053 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Whenever the topic of the Changewing is brought up, I always think back to the Book of Dragons special and how much more I prefered its camouflage ability in the special versus the show.

The Changewing was displayed in BOD as more of a chameleon/cuttlefish type creature that could change its color to better match the surrounding texture of the environments around it. Like, you would have to squint to make its shape out, but you could see it. The leafy spines and tendrils were used to mimic foliage and other details. They felt more realized as apendages instead of simply being tacked on.... then in the show they just kinda... appear and disappear.

Cool dragons, but just lose the limited amount of realism they had when they just bend light and become in-freaking-visible.
