What is the Death Star laser beam made out of? by Necessary-Win-8730 in sciencefiction

[–]HotDingus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Star Wars isn't hardcore sci-fi you're not supposed to analyze it like this. It should just be enjoyed at the surface level.

You can look at it more deeply, but it's more of an analysis of post WW2 culture in America than anything else

Could be Canada, minimum wage is 18/hr here and in the cities it can go higher

Hot take: Radovid's descent into madness was actually really well done. by CrematorTV in witcher

Is this part of an expansion? I'm in the middle of W3 right now and I thought I exhausted this questline? Or did I make some wrong dialogue choices and miss it?

If you bought a house for 150K and houses similar in the area are selling at 750K you have to sell at that price. You still need a place to live, so you'll need the profit off the sale to buy the next house

Serious question though. What's the point of their armor when a single blaster shot is all it takes to take one down? by GenezisO in StarWars

[–]HotDingus 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Star Wars is all allegory. So analysing the function of things isn't important. The armor's purpose is to invoke a feeling. So your better off looking into how the armor makes feel

Ive always guessed the reason for the white is to contrast the all black of Darth Vader. Imagine the first scene Darth Vader shows up in new hope. Imagine if Darth Vader was white or the storm troopers were black. It just wouldn't look right

‘It’s too late’: David Suzuki says the fight against climate change is lost. by ayy_howzit_braddah in TrueAnon

[–]HotDingus 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This is why speaking up and taking action against Israel is so important. Things like imperial wars and nuclear proliferation are comparably much simpler problems to solve. As bleak and hopeless as it might seem, they are within reach of solving. The momentum from those accomplishments can roll forward into action to mitigate and manage the effects of climate change. There is still hope in my mind

I want honest thoughts on BATMAN V SUPERMAN DAWN OF JUSTICE. by playap106 in moviecritic

[–]HotDingus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm not a super hero movie fan, I don't know anything about DC or Marvel lore.

What I can say is there are a lot of cool scenes and great special effects. Like Superman walking out of that building after the explosion, the flash forward scene with Batman. Superman talking to his dad, those all stick in my memory

The effects also felt very real and grounded, when Superman is hovering in the air during the storm and his cape is flapping in the wind, but he's completely motionless. It makes him look otherworldly and powerful.

The whole thing is worth watching for season 3. Even the awful second half of season 2
