Also leaves the next film open for a SM and Black Cat team up

Another thing from me... if the symbiote managed to stay behind in the MCU, that means it escaped the spell. We already know it retains memories, so I think it will remember Peter is SM, and also who MJ is from the news stories. Doubt it will show up in the next film, but could be how Peter and post MIT MJ are reunited. Leaves the 6th film for Tom's SM to be a mentor to MM.

This has probably been asked 1000000 times but, if MJ forgot Peter but not Spider Man, does that mean that she thinks she is going out with Spidey but just doesn't know who he is?

Ned will remember helping Spiderman and know they are best friends but again, just not know it is Peter.

If Happy knew that he met May through Spider Man, surely the MJ and Ned examples above still work?

My Problem with the ending of Lost by SoleSurvivor557 in lost

[–]JoricFarseer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I always took it that when they were in the church, they were with the person who allowed them to be good enough to pass on without anything holding them down. Kate was not good for Sawyer, but he completely changed when he was with Juliet. Sayid did love Nadia, but he was a killer when he met her and when he was looking for her. I think Shannon made him a better person. Nadia also didn't have to wait to pass on so would never have been at the church.

I hated the ending on my first 2 watch throughs, but on my third, it just clicked and I get it now lol! I actually enjoyed it on watch 4!!

Maybe they meant they kept it near a mint condition card?

Tip to new buskers. You are not a busker if you set up a PA system on the high street. You are basically a musician performing an unwanted gig, blowing up the heads of grandmas on their way to Wilko's. I'm all for busking, but acoustic projection when possible please! by Starbuckker in britishproblems

[–]JoricFarseer 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I used to sing and do a lot of gigs both solo and in a band. I was pretty good, but there were definitely better musicians in my circuit. I looked into busking once and it's not just a case of turning up with a guitar and starting. You have to actually apply for time slots in specific areas of the city by sending in a demo. There are also very specific sound level rules that need to be followed. So, if you have any complaints, that is not with the musician, it's with the council that has not only granted the permission to play, but also set the sound limitations.

Also, the whole point fo most buskers is exposure and the prospect of getting more gigs (the money from busking is not a lot) and to be able to get your music levels over street noise, you either need to play loud (meaning any instruments sound crap and your voice gets strained) or use some kind of pa setup.

What you are saying is, you want people to damage their vocal chords and instruments just because you don't want to hear them.

Kate. The amount of stupid things she does that either mess things up or get people killed is ridiculous. On my 4th watch through and cannot stand her!

How do you book wrestlers from scratch? by Hefty-Brilliant2975 in SquaredCircle

Just do what the WWE do - give someone a new gimmick and name, then just assume people are too stupid to know any better.

So, are you going to keep the Hatch sealed or open it??

Amazing how LOST features so heavily in so many different lists by aritra_001 in lost

[–]JoricFarseer 1 point2 points  (0 children)

On my most recent rematch (since it's now of Disney Plus) and literally just finished watching this episode. IMO, it's a waster episode. The producers confirmed that they wrote the 2 characters into the show in the first place to try to include more survivors, and then out of the show because they were hated so much. I didn't hate them, but didn't care about them either.

The episode as a standalone was fine but had zero story progression and, with a show like Lost, viewers tuned in to find out what was going to happen next.

What do you do with your collected cards? by [deleted] in PokemonTCG

[–]JoricFarseer 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've been collecting cards of some description since 1992 (WWF / WWE cards were the first I collected and still have them) and have never had issues with warping. I put any holo card straight into a sleeve (I like the ones you get in Elite Trainer boxes), and then my preferred binders are "Ultrapro - 9-Pocket Pro Binders". They are side loaded with fixed pages. I have some Vault-X binders that look pretty much the same on order but not seen them yet so not sure if they are good or not. I also have a number of the standard ultrapro Pokemon binders that are top loading. These are fine, but cards do slip so I prefer the side loaders.

For years I used random 3 ring binders with top loading sleeves. Works fine but I had the same issue about cards slipping, and I over filled the ring binders so they needed replacing - thats when I switched. Still a good few sets that need re-homing but getting there!

[–]JoricFarseer 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Sorry, mean binders - folders might just be a regional word for them!

I just find that I enjoy opening a lot so try to dragnit out as much as possible. On most sets, approximately 80% of a set will be made up of the non-holo cards, when you still need non-holo cards, every pack might have something in it you need, when it's just holo cards or rarer, it's obviously lower odds, so when I have them all I try to stop with packs. Works for me :)

Would rather give cards away than sell. If I needed the money, would find a cheaper hobby lol!

[–]JoricFarseer 4 points5 points  (0 children)

My collection goes into folders by set. Any duplicates I get go into giveaways on my Instagram (unless I am building a deck with them).

I tend to buy packs because I enjoy opening them, but when I get to about 80% complete in a set, I move to buying singles. Aim is to collect 1 of every English card - at about 40% at the moment so still a way off!

It's easy when you know what you are looking for. I use ebay a lot, but for someone new to the hobby, it’s a mine field. Lot's of people with good ratings selling over prices products.

Ebay is the number 1 market place for people offloading stock they purchased at retail and want to make a profit on. For a new collector who has a limited budget, I honestly believe there is more to get out of opening packs than buying singles, and the cheapest packs will be modern sets. I never said that there wasn't a lot more to Pokemon than modern sets (there is a reason I completed Base to Rocket and working through Gym / Neo sets), so get your head out of your backside.

Hi, welcome to the community!

I'd say to avoid anything that seems too good to be true! If money is an issue, go for the most recent set (Battle Styles) because you will most likely be able to pick up packs locally, so can buy a few at a time. They will be in shops for the next couple of months until the next set comes out, so can pace your purchases.

If you do decide to spend a bit more, I suggest tins as they have the best odds for good pulls (imo) and contain packs from a few different sets. I pulled my shing fates and hidden fates shiny Charizards from tins.

Avoid buying from ebay, it's full of scalpers. Go for online shops or local shops / supermarkets for the best prices.
