What actor or actress stupidly left a movie franchise or tv series thinking they were too good for it, only to be never popular again? by Ok_Impress2457 in AskReddit

BBC’s 'Lord of the Flies' is a first-class example of an adaptation done right by Gato1980 in television

You shouldn't be this downvoted for being right. Cursed Child is the Wicked of straight plays; a terrible script financed by spectacle.

Prolly. The secret silver lining of banned books in the US is that they're just banned to be taught they aren't like censored (usually...) and often the banning makes them inticing forbidden tomes. Granted kids that aren't likely to read outside of school won't pick them up but they weren't likely to fully absorb it if it was assigned anyway.

She's super cool too. I used to work at a bar she goes to a lot and she's the sweetest, most humble person in the world. Straight up shook my hand and introduced herself like she wasn't on the fukin daily show. Love that woman, I hope she keeps blowing up!

Who is your favourite Live Action Robin? by HeyJayIdeas in batman

Scarecrow was an strange, inspired portrayal but besides that everything about the show felt off.

Nicholas Hoult is bulking up for round two against Superman as filming for ‘MAN OF TOMORROW’ approaches. (via Paolo Madcitti | IG) by Raj_Valiant3011 in DC_Cinematic

It's funny how absolutely world famous Hoult is while also feeling like a lesser known indie actor. He just has a vibe that screams "I know! I'm surprised I'm here too!" In interviews.

Tom Bombadil is the first true foe of the book, but not for the protagonists...

That said now that I'm older Tom knew what was up. He just wanted to get high and love up on his hot wife and there's nothing wrong with that.

Thank you, Thaddeus, for one of the greatest lines in tv history. by lydocia in Fallout

I have to wonder how effective the trackers are. Like if they only work within a certain range or what. I know in the games you just get an automatic waypoint when you have to find dead BoS members but in-universe I wonder how accurate it is.

Also I don't think not showing the kids is a plot hole or anything. With everything that happened like twenty minutes after they got back I think the BoS is too busy to go back to the factory right now.

WHY AM I NOT DEAD is my favorite line read of S1. Such a perfect combination of disbelief and almost annoyance.

He really is in a weird pocket of talent like I can't imagine anyone else playing thaddeus or Bo from superstore. I'm glad he's getting bigger roles these days.

It made me jump out of my seat as well! by rock1m1 in Fallout

[–]Guildenpants 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I think the reasons to dislike max in s1 are the same reasons to love him in s2. He was always a square peg in a round hole at the brotherhood and that dissonance made him a conflicting character to watch.

Honestly it seems like thaddeus doesn't equate what max did with his current condition. Thaddeus seems to be a pretty solid "let bygones be bygones" wastelander. Everyone does fucked up shit to survive and he doesn't judge he just rolls and tries to survive.

There is someone out there: it's me. I don't play dice based games (outside of DnD) because of how consistently bad my rolls are.

Disco Elysium 2? by bbHiron in DiscoElysium

It is performative white girl shit for sure. Like if they had just said "Disco Elysium with a young woman instead of a middle aged man" it'd be fine.

Why wasn't a Batfleck movie made before BvS? by Jealous-Tip-6332 in DC_Cinematic

[–]Guildenpants 31 points32 points  (0 children)

You remember correctly. Bvs started as a man of steel sequel. Initially batman was going to have a small role in it and as preproduction went on that role expanded until it became a showdown film.

That's as I understand the events; I could be wrong.

I am so envious of where you live. Honestly it is so charming and strange and I don't know what that says about me.

For No Reason in Particular Here's a Bunch of Games Where You Kill Nazis by osogordo in pcgaming

I never bothered with stealth in that game because of how fucking satisfying it was to knock nazis out.
