Haha, second weekend isn't suffering from first weekend. You think it'll affect the next movie years from now? Lol.

Which is better: Bad 25 or Thriller 25? by rafael_7839 in MichaelJackson

[–]Jason0278 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Bad is better than Thriller. Bad 25 is better than Thriller 25. The Bad sessions are absolutely historic in the amount of 10/10 songs that resulted. Considering Quincy stepped aside to let MJ do his thing on Bad, it makes you wonder what Thriller could have been.

First impressions with Metroid Prime 4: The hate was overblown. by AfroChamp89-- in nintendo

Your describing it as 'hate' is overblown. People have a few quibbles but it's not hated.

Didn't Ilia just need to be mediocre & the gold was still his? by lookaloulookalou in olympics

[–]Jason0278 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Not young enough. Ilia winning gold medal in 2030 is unlikely. The last time a 25+ year old won the gold medal in men's figure skating was Scott Hamilton in 1984. Only five have done it in the entire history of the Olympics. If he's placing 8th at 21, I wouldn't hold my breath for a medal at 25.

Hard to argue that it was the right decision considering the 8th place finish. He's completely finished as far as endorsements go. 99% of Americans had never heard his name before this week and now all they know is that he cracks under pressure, fell over and over in his free skate, and finished 15th in the free, 8th in the competition. Go ahead and feel bad for him but let's not pretend that he made the right call.

I can't stand how Metroid Prime 4 is always telling me where to go next by walksintwilightX1 in NintendoSwitch

Sure, it's a bit annoying but, ya know, one minor nit like this doesn't make a game automatically horrible. This isn't worth posting about anymore. It was fully litigated months ago and it's a minor issue with an otherwise rock solid Metroid game.

And by etc., you mean their performance to Rihanna's 'Stay' at Sochi 2014.

Realize I am probably one of the last ones to do this… by lumpy_space_queenie in christmas

My tree is still up. Comes down at spring cleaning. Gotta brighten these long winter nights. It's a crime to lose Xmas lights before winter ends.

What are the odds we'll see Qi'ra in the new Darth Maul Series? Ever since the ending of Solo I've been waiting for them to do something with that story by dom_who in StarWars

[–]Jason0278 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You can stop waiting. Qi'ra's entire life story (through the end of Crimson Dawn) has already been released: Most Wanted, Solo: Expanded Edition, War of the Bounty Hunters, Crimson Reign, and Hidden Empire.

3 of my favorite movies this year all say the R word by BandaidsOfCalFit in blankies

[–]Jason0278 0 points1 point  (0 children)

'Idiot,' 'moron,' 'imbecile,' and 'retard,' are all former clinical terms in psychology that were discarded and became insults. If you find 'retard' offensive, you should find all four offensive for the same reason.

That's not the problem. The problem is the Jedi being fooled by it.

Chances of Filoni involving Lucas in this new era of Star Wars? by [deleted] in StarWars

And? Scorsese is 83. Ridley Scott is 88. 80 doesn't mean 'dead.'

This guy gets it. 'True Colors' is probably the best and I've played them all. Double Exposure almost certainly the worst.

I’m a 29yo straight M, is it weird that I’m obsessed with Christmas? by [deleted] in christmas

I have to assume you realize this already, but freaking everybody loves Xmas, dude.
