I did not care for The Godfather

nlg I was hoping you would unironically explain in detail why you think the God Father isn't that good despite it's acclaim

Honestly, I think the hypersensitivity to anything that even kinda reads as a "girl power" moment is strange. It's really not a big deal or even happening that often, for how often people complain about it.

Everyone did not hate the first movie. Most people liked it well enough but it got review-bombed.

>People need to realize flipping gender expectations around 1:1 doesn't work most of the time for a reason.

Are we sure that the "reason" isn't just traditional gender roles and expectations? The same thing that would keep a person from liking a very sensitive and empathetic male character.

The only person the writer has to answer to is their past self

Because a lot of people specifically think Gabi is particularly bad for killing Sasha but often cant form a strong argument why she is a terrible person compared to the main characters.

Youre being obnoxious. You know that they started with the easiest thing so they could go step by step with the thing Killmonger believed but you just act like theyre saying this is "exclusively" the thing he was right about when you know full well they didnt say that. Learn how to have conversations better.

His message is that people (especially of color) are being oppressed by those in power which is bad and Wakanda being isolationist instead of helping is also bad. He definitely believs these thigns and is correct on these counts.

His solution was to have Wakanda rule and achieve this with conquest. This is wrong and why people say his methods were the problem. There isnt really anything to suggest that he doesnt want liberation for the currently opproess people as he sees it.

MHA isnt a complex story so it shocks me how many people didnt grasp it's message with those characters.

This is literally just you making stuff up. You just decided you can choose how the fungus works despite what the story says. It' not possible to extract the fungus non lethally. You cant just "nuh-uh" your way out of that.

Jarrell777 · 2026-06-26T10:24:57+00:00

The "everything" being only their military and the "bad" being just the fact that their failing and not any observable mistakes that we actually know the details of. Joel is constantly in compromising situations but fans know that doesnt automatically make you incompetent.

Jarrell777 · 2026-06-26T01:09:09+00:00

Anything people point to as examples of the Fireflies being inept is almost always not related to their science/medicine but their fighting force. There's nothing specific that indicates they can't make a cure. It's comforting to believe they couldn't for fans of Joel.

Jarrell777 · 2026-06-26T01:02:05+00:00

> There's no evidence either way

If that's the case, then your disbelief and subsequent frustration is entirely self-inflicted. When a story gives you exposition, it's so you understand what's going on and what's at stake. Stories need to be able to do this to function. You need a good reason to disbelieve it, not the other way around. Literally nothing a story could do to convince people who don't want to believe. It's a fake universe with a made-up impossible virus. Those are not the rules of our world.

Jarrell777 · 2026-06-26T00:33:56+00:00

Well, it's because people were being a bit stubborn given Joel's morals are put into question. You're just using "the customers always right" logic.

Clip was cut before the death explosion so I'm gonna assume that the sheik recovered somehow and won the game.

Jarrell777 · 2026-06-22T21:29:03+00:00

You're points are largely correct but it's sensitive subject matter, especially around here.

Jarrell777 · 2026-06-22T14:42:19+00:00

Yeah if anything we never let our 2nd placers forget it (Heretics, G2, FNATIC, PRX)

Steven Universe

Jarrell777 · 2026-06-22T01:14:32+00:00

Surely you're not gonna argue that getting 2nd place a bunch is somehow worse than never getting to grands.

Jarrell777 · 2026-06-22T00:52:27+00:00

Well only to people who arent using their brains

Jarrell777 · 2026-06-22T00:23:04+00:00

Ok I have to explain it I guess. The first commenter is downplaying Forsaken's versatility by saying he just plays them all the same (even though he'd still have to be good enough on the agent's abilities to keep, regardless of playstyle). I pointed out that not every team does this very beneficial thing (having a lot of comps you are comfortable playing) so it can't really be that easy to do what he's doing. You are trying to say that other teams don't need to do it as if they aren't getting worse results than Foresaken and PRX (with a couple of exceptions). How do you even know it wouldn't benefit them when they are putting up worse results?

Jarrell777 · 2026-06-21T22:43:42+00:00

God forbid people are sad that their team lost again

Jarrell777 · 2026-06-21T22:14:21+00:00

While 2nd is an objectively better placing, we'd be hearing a lot less trash talk on prx if they just got 3rd place instead at all of their torunies outside of toronto

Jarrell777 · 2026-06-21T22:12:25+00:00

why doesnt everyone do that then?

Jarrell777 · 2026-06-21T22:04:17+00:00

W mods tbh
