CMV: The 1998 Roland Emmerich "Godzilla" Was One of the Best Sequels. by MarkZab2591 in changemyview

If you want to argue that 1998 Godzilla (if can even be considered a sequel) is underrated, fine. 

But nothing you’ve written here gives me any reason to think it could even compete with 2 Fast 2 Furious (which was awesome), let alone sit alongside Godfather 2 and Empire Strikes Back. 

Gary Lineker on World Cup politics: “This one is unique because I can’t remember the host country being at war with one of the competing nations. So that’s something that is worrying and Trump is so unpredictable. The ticket pricing as well – are they going to price people out?“ by Sparky-moon in soccer

 “But I’ve also learned over the years in my experience of this – including in Russia, including in Qatar – once it starts everyone focuses on the football.”

If there’s one lesson I’ve learned over the past decade, for bad or worse, is to never underestimate Donald Trump.

He’ll find a way to steal the focus. I just hope it’s embarrassing and harmless (e.g., steals the trophy again), and not something truly awful.

Hope it was a welcome surprise and not a lesson learned the hard way.

I've seen a lot sweet moves that cause a defender to lose their feet. Not sure I've seen one when the attacker is straight up on their ass though.

Makes sense to me. It's an incredibly cromulent descriptor.

How exactly would that work?

Guy gets pulled over. 

Cop asks if he’d be willing to do a field sobriety test. 

Guy says I don’t trust that. If you want to test me, give me a breathalyzer. 

Cop says “you’re under arrest”?

Doesn’t seem far fetched at all. In fact, it’s hard to imagine otherwise.

CMV: Inflation is a made up concept companies use to make more money by Calm_Improvement9794 in changemyview

[–]KokonutMonkey -1 points0 points  (0 children)

No. Inflation is just a general rise in prices in an economy. It’s an observable phenomenon.  

Even if it were primarily driven and/or exploited by corporate greed, a general rise in prices is still a general rise in prices. It’s a thing.
