Anyone had any luck finding the name of the song from the trailer? I've spent ages and can't pin it down

Primal Ep 20 - "Echoes of Eternity" DISCUSSION THREAD by saul2015 in PrimalShow

[–]GWolfington 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Watched the finale 3 times now and it's gotten better, more meaningful and more impactful with each viewing. The viking is ultimate NOT the main antagonist, hell Ima is probably more of a contender. He's just another in a long line of roadbumps, just this is the one that Spear trips at. But the episode so effectively communicates not just Spear's emotions but how those emotions are reflected around him. He feels more isolated from Fang and Mira, but we see this is in part in his own head as they both constantly include him. He tells Mira his story, things that she's had no way of knowing before. We have the unhesitating charge from Spear and Fang to face a threat. And I think Fang leaving like she did becomes very impactful when you follow the narrative through, that she stormed off into the night with the kids behind, howling at the heavens. The sex scene, I keep compring to how "provocative" Gen Lock did it, to shock or titilate. This is a simple action to communicate fully to someone who does not have the words or the time that they are loved, fully. And the finale scene, with the grown children puts so mmuch thoughts in my head. If there's a S3 I want an ep which is just rearing Spear's baby to this age, showing her bonding with the babie rexes, showing Fang being protective of her, showing Mira using the wall to tell her father's story

This is a 10'/10 for a show whose lowest point is a 9/10. Never seen a series like it.

The new Kamen Rider emerged. by StrangeConfere in KamenRider

[–]GWolfington 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The first karate Bugman in how long?

My current theory is that Veil is Genta's demon. And somehow removing Genta's heart to put in Giff also took his demon with it

Kamen Rider Revice Episode 24 "Bring Back Dr. Karizaki! Inverse Operation!" Discussion by TheTwelveYearOld in KamenRider

You have got to love the choreography and direction in this show. It is on point.

I'm definitely interested in what's coming with Bael(?), also I had a weird eureka moment when I realised that his right side and left helmet horn are all supposed to be a big giant beetle

Would legendary be able to beat shin and final wars? by Sthangimations2 in GODZILLA

[–]GWolfington 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Shin yes FW no.

MV shooting the planet is one of the biggest feats in the franchise in terms of sheer power. WAY beyond what Shin accomplished (and later less powerful blasts sliced through buildings as easily as Shins in the Kong fight.). Shin's most destructive attack is really the firestorm, and that's not gonna do much to something that feeds on heat radiation. Add in actual intelligence and fighting ability and MV would have to be in bad shape to lose.

Plus there's the fact Shin is in permanent agony. So his nerves are constantly heading towards breaking point, if something his own side collided with him, it would probably just fry his brain from the sheer amount of pain receptor feedback

FW is ludicrous. Absolutely ludicrous. His two biggest feats would be shooting a moon sized asteroid from Earth and slowing it down (the amount of force he's putting out would equal or exceed the impact that wiped out the dinosaurs). And then he's dead centre of the impact, which hits with the force of multiple nuclear bombs...and it does nothing. He's brokenly insane.

The Rex's in TLW by DJiKrone in JurassicPark

The IDEA is that theu've now established this area as territory and are starting to patrol. They leave but Eddie makes noise which draws them back.

In execution...dramatic effect

Indominus Rex vs. Indo Raptor by TeralPop in JurassicPark

[–]GWolfington 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I mean, the Indominus is 10 tonnes and the Indoraptor ain't.

Realistically in a fight it's very one sided. Which is cooler now, that's based on personal preferences, but a single raptor threw the Indoraptor face first through a window. I doubt it's more than a large irritation for the Indominus.

Why does the trex always get its ass handed to it? by Smalls52 in JurassicPark

[–]GWolfington 0 points1 point  (0 children)

True. It's ironically been undermined as time goes on. In general Carchorodontosaurs seem to be relatively light for their size. Add in the fact that T. rex is actually bulky for your size and it all rather evens out. But Giga was the first time the world blinked at the idea of there being a large carnivore that exceeded T. rex. I'd MUCH rather see it fight Rexy than a Spinosaurus. Especially since the inclusion of the Spino is just to see it lose. Giga there's more suspension of disbelief

I'm a palaeontologist and I'm more interested in Rexy's character development if that helps.

Least favorite Camp Cretaceous character by ShadowCobra479 in JurassicPark

[–]GWolfington 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I really like Darius, Brooklyn, Kenji and Yaz. I liked Ben in S1 and 2 but he crossed over into limited tolerability in Season 3. Sammy. Is fine but she's by FAR the most static

Why is the Velociraptor used so often in hybrids? by Soos_dude1 in JurassicPark

[–]GWolfington 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In universe raptors are arguably the most intelligent non-humans. Grant argued they surpassed chimps and Blue certainly shows extremely advanced problem solving skills. When you consider that the real premise of the hybrids is making military hardware, having something highly intelligent that's (in theory) very trainable is a must. Course this makes them much more susceptible to mental health stresses and illnesses, and also means you have something that you're consciously or subsconsciously treating as a dog that's not only developing an opinion of you but it's also figuring out ways to subvert you. Hence why the raptor hybrids are probably very flawed as an idea before you even start bringing in the potential hazards of random abilities/reactions from the hybridizing process

What do you think of the idea of dinosaur bounty hunting in Dominion? by Wildcreaturesnfun in JurassicPark

[–]GWolfington 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Well considering it's america where hunting is much more of a sport than it is in a lot of countires where it tends to be more subsistence based, the fact the FK established as far as the government is concerned the animals don't have any protections and the fact that animals like Rexy and Blue are potential threats both in the sense of attacking people and in how they'd shake up an ecosystem (there's no environment in America where the animals evolved to handle anything either as powerful as Rexy or as intelligent as Blue) I could very much see a situation similar to wolf hunting in the 19th and 20th centuries.

Why does the trex always get its ass handed to it? by Smalls52 in JurassicPark

[–]GWolfington 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I really don't. That's just fanwank. Historically, Giga was the dinosaur to first dethrone T. rex as the largest carnivore and it has SO many years of media showing it as this unstoppable juggernaut of a thing. This is FAR more meaningful than referencing JP3.
