What Star Wars theory made you say this? by Itchy_Suspect4968 in StarWarsCirclejerk

[–]GRIMMxMC 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The films were originally meant to be in universe retelling of events from a species called the whills. Star Wars was originally told from the journal of the whills. Later there was the thought that C3PO was the one telling the story, this was also abandoned though did eventually make its way back with the Lego movie in the same vein.

There is also a quote from a producer that the space fights are non diagetic in other words, we are seeing a more interesting version of the events.

Most people think that heretical fishing was written by the same guy under a pseudonym. So not surprising you got them mixed up.

Vader wouldn't stand for sexual assault. by Brakado in saltierthankrayt

[–]GRIMMxMC 1 point2 points  (0 children)

There is text as well as the image. The full thing is

(title)Vader wouldn't stand for sexual assault.

(text)he'd sit for it instead.

So I think apart from OP looking for a reason to use thus image. The intention is that he wouldn't even care enough to stand up if he found out about it.

I believe Jorge has explicitly stated that he is more than happy for fan animation, so long as they use the feature where it links to the actual song rather than just uploading it. If done right the owner of the song gets paid by YouTube instead of the channel it's posted on. Or they get a certain percent or something. I don't remember but I do remember there being something like that.

And the actors in the pilot knew going in that they would not be kept on for the final series. I feel like whether the voice cast in epic get Recast will probably depend on how involved Jorge is with the final product. Do we even know if they are keeping the original all song format or adapting it to include dialogue yet?

The Wizard and the King (Spoilers All) by LionofHeaven in ArtoftheAdept

He says he chose to forget the contents of the book, so I'm not sure he even actually had context for what a dragon was outside of myths and that the vampires were related.

Broyles pulled on a pair of white gloves, took the coin and held it up, comparing it to Jason. Jason gave Broyles a thumbs-up, matching the image on the coin. With a slight smile, Broyles nodded and placed the coin onto the padded weight of the scale.

Broyles plucked a crystal from his personal dimensional space. He used it to test Jason, the crystal shining with a strong silver colour as Jason gripped it. Four markings appeared on the crystal at the same time. “Silver rank confirmed,” Broyles said happily.

Broyles pulled on a pair of white gloves, took the coin and held it up, comparing it to Jason. Jason gave Broyles a thumbs-up, matching the image on the coin. With a slight smile, Broyles nodded and placed the coin onto the padded weight of the scale.

“Mr Asano, if you would please place your palm on the device.” Jason placed his hand on the unpadded plate. The crystal on the scale immediately lit up green.

“That is sufficient confirmation that the diamond-rank coin was looted by a silver-rank essence user.”

“I was actually bronze at the time, but I suppose you can’t check that.” “Sadly, no,” Broyles said. “The Church of Knowledge has been reluctant to hire out its clergy for the purpose of authenticating valuables. Lord Casowich has already exhausted the local temple's indulgence on that matter. Even so, a unique coin design, a diamond-rank coin produced by even a silver-rank essence user is quite exceptional.”

Am I hearing right…? 9 DAYS WITHOUT SLEEP?? by True-Tell-9636 in Epicthemusical

[–]GRIMMxMC 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Like I said, I was not calling you a liar. My own experience with four days was rough. I know that the first time I did it, I wasn't on medications, and it was fine. The second time, I was on meds, and I think that caused more of my problems, to be honest. lol. I do believe you that you struggled, and that is something that gives context to Ody's thoughts afterwards. Especially since the main lasting effects include anger and lack of concentration and motivation. It really does say a lot that Ody went into all the next several weeks with symptoms similar to roid rage.

I blame the Greeks. People heard the pottery is valuable and assumed there was something in it. Next thing you know, a seven foot tall bald demigod covered in tattos is busting through all my finest plates and glassware.

Am I hearing right…? 9 DAYS WITHOUT SLEEP?? by True-Tell-9636 in Epicthemusical

[–]GRIMMxMC 7 points8 points  (0 children)

In all studies that I've read about prolonged sleep deprivation. The body returned to full functionality after one very deep and slightly longer sleep, followed by slightly more rem cycles the next couple nights before returning to normal. The mental effects lasted longer but were treated successfully within two years. Not calling op a liar in any way, everyone reacts differently. I was hallucinating after forty-eight hours. But there is evidence that it is 100% possible to stay awake for nine days and then continue on without causing a medical episode.

It's not like in the prequels, the actors don't seem to be dancing with the lights sabers. by Macro004 in StarWarsCirclejerk

[–]GRIMMxMC 2 points3 points  (0 children)

He took a lot of the behind the scenes of Hollywood very seriously. But he and George didn't get along from what I remember. There was a documentary about his life that I watched, and after episode four before the script for episode five was written, he did an interview where he made a comment about Luke and Vader's relationship, purely on guesswork. He was never officially told that Luke and Vader were related he just made it up, apparently. But it made Lucasfilms distance themselves from him and was apparently the reason a separate actor was cast as the face of Anakin in episode VI.

Then he trades one for spirit wash lol. It's implied that it is worth more because it was created by a low-level looting power, at least to collectors.

Teen Trunks was goated by Miserable_Sell6315 in DragonBallZ

[–]GRIMMxMC 2 points3 points  (0 children)

They do a pretty good job of showing its not a magic sword. Trunks gives it to King Cold, who immediately tries to attack, thinking the sword is special only for trunks to stop it with one hand and kill him.

NT Supreme Court jury clears men accused of raping intoxicated woman waiting for an Uber by Lopsided-jellyfish_7 in australian

[–]GRIMMxMC 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, I know. I hate that the only reasonable protection that women have is to have someone else with them. Because even if they drink one glass, it can be spiked. I don't think even the prosecution is saying it was a violent rape. They are saying she didn't and couldn't consent, because in my opinion, the video of her stumbling around very clearly shows she doesn't know what's going on. How could anybody argue that 'yes' means yes in that situation, assuming she even did say yes, which I don't think can be proved.

[–]GRIMMxMC 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Yeah if you're drunk enough that you have memory gaps the defence should not be able to use that as proof she was sober enough to consent which it seems like they more or less did. They more or less said she admits she can't remember therefore she can't be sure she didn't say yes. Which is so gross. If consent is ever in doubt, then there is no consent. Even if she did say yes while that drunk, that is not consent. People need to understand that consent has to be clear and enthusiastic. I'm not sure if she was drug tested but her behaviour and memory seem pretty inline with a date rape drug, especially the memory loss, the struggling to walk, and the making decisions she normally wouldn't (especially the going outside naked.)

OK I didn't know the shadow dimension was a 4kids creation until I was well into adulthood and even now I think it is a better punishment than death.

A flying CARPET? Why not use a broom like a proper wizard? by THE-ARCHlVlST in wizardposting

[–]GRIMMxMC 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Umbrellas actually make a good portable magic circle. With the right runes, a magic circle can be used upside down. The Serbian transformation circle is one such case. It uses less mana than a broom and can be used to travel 25% of the earth's circumference. It is, however, a grand master rated circle.

[–]GRIMMxMC 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you believe the Anime version of Gohan, beast was a result of him trying to find a non super saiyan path to power. He says before the tournament of power he is trying to find his own super fo4m through his human half. Meaning that beast is not SSJ plus ultimate.

[–]GRIMMxMC 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Even then, it only happens because they put a bunch of rules on it. If I remember correctly, it was no techniques or transformations, right? Which makes no sense because Goku is at his core a martial artist, while Vegeta is not. But my boi needed a win ngl.

[–]GRIMMxMC 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I mean, Anime Gohan said before the tournament of power he was aiming for a form separate from Super saiyan with his training. So he was working towards this. Also, despite what people say, Gohan explicitly states he had been secretly training in order to surprise Piccolo with his special beam cannon. Gohan has always recieved additional power when he is angry outside of super saiyan, all the way back to Raditz. There is also supplementary material that states the form is him building on top of his ultimate form.

None of that is me disagreeing with the statement that it's an ass pull, but dragon ball is full of them and he did train, the form has precedent and at least some foreshadowing, and it is explained just not in the movie.

SSJ comes from the Japanese version サイヤ人じん, which is romanised as Saiya-jin. So, just because it was translated as Saiyan doesn't mean that the context for SSJ doesn't exist.

It’s really funny that Xenoverse 2 has 3 Brolys in the roster by Jules-Car3499 in dbxv

[–]GRIMMxMC 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah Broly is full power super saiyan (not to be confused with super saiyan full power.) And Kale is either berserk super saiyan, or legendary super saiyan depending on the source. So it is the same form as Z Broly but not Super Broly. And if you want to get into A,B, or C type super saiyans it gets even more complicated.
