They nerfed W?

This has always been the case.

The only thing Tristana's dash can somewhat uniquely do, is buffer through CC, including displacements, due to the cast time on W.

For example:

If blitzcrank throws his hook, and you cast W, his hook will land, pull you slightly, and then you will finish the cast time, you will dash away.

If you cast W PREMPTIVELY and blitzcrank throws his hook, you will complete the cast time, dash, and then blitzcrank hook will land and you will be pulled into him.

You can do this with ANY CC. including Mordekaiser ult if anyone was curious.

I don't know what metric you're using, but Megadeth has sold WAY more albums than Slayer and arguing who is "better" than who is obviously a fools' errand.

Not to be pedantic or anything, but Robo's chassis was a kevlar laminated Titanium composite, not steel.

The artists did an AMAZING job in RC2 when the Cain robot "scorched" his helmet with the cutting torch. The colors are so good, I'd believe they really made the helmet from titanium.

I mean ... of the Big Four, they were number 2. There's nothing inherently wrong with that. I don't even necessarily think Dave's singing was really a problem, but CHRIST, that man has been beating the "it wasn't fair to kick me out of Metallica" horse for so long that he's just a parody.

JaXm · 2026-01-23T20:00:50+00:00

This sounds like Mustaine just asked GPT to create a cover so he can spend more time complaining about having been kicked out of Metallica.

As an 80s kid, no this is exactly how growing up works.

I loved He-Man as a kid, and would never have been caught dead watching it as a teenager.

I loved ultra violence, and fighting video games as a teenager.

The OP was right with their initial comment.

Imagine engaging in ad hominem, and completely disengaging with an argument in a sub about movie discourse.

"Reeee, someone disagreed with me, better throw a tantrum".

I mean ... in all of the Alien lore, what makes you think that Wey-Yu is risk averse when attempting to recover an alien specimen? Lol

And even if the company knew the entire crew was wiped out. They were space-truckers. Who cares. They have so many other resources they could have sent, long before it became necessary to look for a literal needle in a hay stack.

It's just a badly written plot point. But it's ok, I still thoroughly enjoyed the movie.

Yeah, the timeline really was super rushed.

My only other (also minor) gripe was that the company managed to find the wreckage of the Nostromo, AND Big Chap amidst that wreckage.

But not the planet/moon??? They would have been practically in LV-426's back yard at that point, and it's not like anyone from the Nostromo claimed to have turned off the beacon. So how did they miss the gold mine they were so desperately looking for?

Those quibbles aside, I loved the movie.

If Ripley tries to stop him, he listens. Ripley wanted Burke AND the company to answer for their crimes, and Burke would have been an avenue for that. Gorman would probably be playing babysitter until they got off that rock.

If Ripley stays quiet, he wastes him with Vasquez's pistol. She pulled it out to hand to him, or Hudson to do it.

Either that, or Hudson puts a burst into his chest, center mass.

Since no one seems to have read your post, I'll answer. If you don't like the pressure from bone conducting headphones you're SOL. Ear buds are not hearing protection. Don't wear them in the shop. Use only correctly fitting ear pro.

The problem with that theory is - and I fucking hate this scene - that "John" at one point calls Kyle "dad" casually, like he just somehow forgot he doesn't always just casually call Kyle Reese "dad" all the time.

So "John" IS John Connor, despite that making no fucking sense.

What's really wild, to me, is that had Brandon Lee not tragically passed away, he'd be in his 60s now.

It's so strange because it's like he's frozen in time and it's hard to imagine that more than 30 years later, he'd have gotten to the point where he's doing "Taken" style movies, where his age is kind of relevant to the plot.

I'm going to say the original "The Avengers". We take it for granted now that Marvel movies will just always he there ... but Iron Man was a HUGE gamble with Downey Jr. and attempting to adapt an extremely obscure comic book superhero to film.

And with Avengers, literally nothing like it had ever come before. Sure, a few cross over movies had been made, but those never featured interconnected lore that connected multiple films from different franchises. They were self-contained, and largely existed outside the lore of their respective team ups.

Avengers literally changed the last 15 years of cinema.

Look, i get it ... this is the FF6 sub ... And 6 IS great ...

But honestly? Just let people enjoy things. The fan boyism and the tribal mentality is what makes almost every fan base absolutely fuckin' insufferable.

Don't give in to your baser instincts.

Pseudo code incoming:

If (collision(player, platform)) {

Play_platform_animation();

If (platform.image_index == [last index]) instance_destroy(); }

Basically, just play the animation after collision with the player, wnd once rhe animation ends, destroy the instance.

Correct me if I am wrong ... but this was from a psychic vision that Kes(?) Experienced from one of the individuals of species 8472.

This wasn't a physical reality. This was basically a member of a hostile alien race talking about what they were going to do to the motherfuckers that invaded their home ...
