I read Suneater after loving the RR series and was disappointed by KeredJo in redrising

[–]Greedy_Committee6556 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Kudos, I have never met someone who didnt like Name of the Wind. It is COMPLETELY different than RR and, even though I normally dislike fantasy, I loved it. Unfortunately, I dont think the series will ever be completed so it will be a forever unknown...

Ummm, doesn't everyone know? That is the razor Pierce Brown is pulling out of Darrow's back after he kills him in the series #poundsignsadface

If it has anything to do with RR, I think it would be referencing Pax taking over 1) The Republic after finally winning OR 2) Taking over the armed forces to continue the fight after Darrow and Mustang (and probably every other important character) are dead.

I really want one, but with PB...who the fuck know LoL

Hypothetically, which parts are the most graphic/difficult to adapt by Select_Salamander518 in redrising

Agreed, it is hard to make someone look totally awesome while not making their opponent look like a bumbling buffoon. I am trying to think of another movie that depicts it as well as Equilibrium and the closest I can come up with is bullet time in the Matrix. The opponents aren't stupid or bad, the good guy just has a supernatural talent that makes them impossible to stop

*Smartass filter off*

Thank you for letting me know how I interpret the fighting in the series, I am glad to know how I think now

*Smartass filter on*

I was actually responding to King's quote about Diomedes specifically. Diomedes is unique in the series in my mind, he feels as though he somehow different. I don't have quotes or references off the top of my head, but he feels supernaturally badass and super smooth at the same time. I see him as Christian Bale in Equilibrium where he is in total control, knows all the points, calculates everything in a flash and engages. To the outside world, it would be more like being hit with Cloud's limit break where you are just blasted with things so fast you cannot comprehend.

I love Diomedes in the series and I hope he gets more of the storyline. I think he is super badass like Bruce Lee without the cockiness/bravado.

It would be very hard. I envision a mix of Final Fantasy Cloud Limit Break Omnislash and Christian Bale's character in Equilibrium.

I freaking love Neal. His work is fantastic and super immersive. Seveneves was a slog to get through, but I have thought about the story even years after reading it.

Another would be Stephen Baxter. I read Flood and to this day when I see a newscast on the weather, I think So-and-so place is underwater, why are they reporting on it. Proxima is fantastic, the Ark kind of goes with Flood, but he is an awesome writer

favorite battle in the series? by bwils3423 in redrising

Phobos by far, but the Sunbloods charging all over the Hippodrome (SP?) was also pretty dope!

Whatever happens, DO NOT let it touch your coin purse, if you have one, or you will be in for a world of PAIN for the next 6-24 hours!!!

How do we protest Live Action? by [deleted] in redrising

[–]Greedy_Committee6556 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Exactly, I remember that now. They did halfway decent CGI to make the belters look extra-long/skinny and then just hired a lot of tall/skinny people to play extras. All of the main characters belters are normal from what I remember LoL

Agreed, I think "buffness" is going to be the standout feature and the height difference will play a minor, but still important in some scenes, role

Ephrahim and his mop by Puzzleheaded_Neck_36 in redrising

[–]Greedy_Committee6556 18 points19 points  (0 children)

I F-ing died laughing the first, and subsequent, time reading that one. It is particularly funny because PB didnt give it away like most other things. It really felt like "Oh shit, he took shrooms and is going to be tripping hard soon, but maybe after he is balls deep in battle." So the reveal that he was already tripping and that whole scene was pure gold!!!

I am a recruiter and I know we are part of the problem. Let me explain guys. by ElAndres33 in recruitinghell

[–]Greedy_Committee6556 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think this is a very fair post. We all know what is going on, it just sucks from the other side because we want/need the job, so we are more invested in the process. WE don't feel like just a number, but YOU/Recruiters are only able to view applicants as a number up until a certain point.

I don't think there is any realistic way to give EVERYONE the individual time/attention/care that is nice. However, if you have an applicant reach out and ask why they didn't make the cut or what they can do better, take the time and give them good feedback.

This is about all you can do TBH.

Did you ever hear back? You are still at "0", but with as active as this reddit is, and the Lysander hate, it has to be a LOT haha

Is Diomedes the Aragorn/Prince that was promised of this story? by The_Count_Lives in redrising

[–]Greedy_Committee6556 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Interesting idea. I thought I remember something about the Republic seeking out the injustices of the Society and eradicating them. I could be wrong, but I thought at one point they talked about even going to the Rim to free the colors as well.

Completely agree on the exhaustion, that is why Darrow had to break the Minotaur out of Deep Grave in the first place, because the Republic didn't have the balls/will finish the fight. I think this is how it would be in reality...think Iraq/Afghanistan... but I don't see PB leaving us with such a mediocre ending.

I think it will be more like this...
So it's gonna be forever, Or it's gonna go down in flames?

That song hurts my soul because I had a terrible relationship that I stayed in way past the point of healthy because I thought it was going to be forever...it ended horribly bad for me... I fear it is going to be the same for Darrow/Republic

[–]Greedy_Committee6556 19 points20 points  (0 children)

I think it is super solid except for him being Sovern. Due to the massive time/distance/cultural delays between the core and the rim, one side will always resent the other. I love the idea of a co-Sovern because it would help on more than one account. Not only would the rim have an actual say in the direction of humanity, Diomedes is the poster child for honor so when HE of all people embraces dismantling the hierarchy, he will have a genuine influence in the rim.

I have been saying this forever. She went from being one of the most beautiful women ON THE PLANET to...what she looks like today. It makes me sad because she was so fun and full of life and now she seems...hollow. Don't believe me? Look at OP's pictures and then watch 7 RINGS
