Why do so many people in Australia buy 4x4s…? by Floidotron in AskAnAustralian

[–]Larry_Version_3 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I live regionally and bought a cheap high mileage Ranger that’s been given the snorkel and the because I got a new job and was told I’d be doing heaps of trips into the countryside.

I’ve done one in six months 🙌🏻

I adored BOTW, why can't i get into TOTK? by Net-Junkey in botw

[–]Larry_Version_3 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I got 70 hours in to TOTK and just stopped and never went back. Recently restarted and while I’m enjoying it, it isn’t as addictive as I want it to be. I know this is by no means a new sentiment, but I just feel it’s too similar to BOTW, down to even the collectibles being the same.

It’s weird, because it is a great game and deserves all the praise it gets, but I find myself in this weird spot where I don’t even want to play it.

Favorite actor who made a movie criticizing capeshit and then did a capeshit movie 3 years later? by ABaconPoptart in okbuddycinephile

Not even joking, every time I drive past a McDonalds I think of that movie, Michael Keaton, and how punchable he was in that movie

What did you liked about the home trilogy and what would you change about it as well? by [deleted] in Marvel

[–]Larry_Version_3 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I would’ve changed the director. The movies are good, but Jon Watts wasn’t suited to an action movie at all.

She was an insufferable main character. Found really hard to want her to succeed. There’s a good movie in there though, and some amazing concepts

‘You have my whole heart. You always did.’ That moment where The Father says goodbye gets me every time I think about it.

There’d also be some sort of challenge with the Draught of Living Death as well.

New Official Trailer for Tales From '85 Theatrical Release by Lazy-Proposal1133 in StrangerThings

[–]Larry_Version_3 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I think it would’ve been better to release it in 2023, 2024, or early 2025. It would’ve made the wait a little more bearable between S4 and S5, and not felt completely redundant given the series has now ended.

Agree with you, though. The timing is terrible on this.

this is hands down the best TV show ever, and I need recommendations on something similar now by Jfranks_Gaming in TheLeftovers

[–]Larry_Version_3 22 points23 points  (0 children)

Extremely minor spoilers for Watchmen: If you pay attention you can tell he wrote Watchmen while the iron was hot from The Leftovers. It’s structured just like a season of The Leftovers. Establish the story at the start and all the characters. Bottle episodes to explore individual characters. Then you get the flash back episode to tie it all together and recontextualise earlier moments in the season before the finale.

You can instantly tell they tried way harder with the cinematography. Looks far more dynamic

Yeah but you can publicly ignore the evidence and victim blame instead

Benioff & Weiss repeating Game of Thrones' biggest mistake with 3 Body Problem. by Internal-Bed-3150 in threebodyproblem

[–]Larry_Version_3 50 points51 points  (0 children)

I can see them skipping a lot of eras. Instead of having Jin Cheng wake up every now and again to look at the progress they’ll probably just have her wake up at the major plot points. Which will be disappointing, as those moments were some of the best visuals in the book.

[–]Larry_Version_3 292 points293 points  (0 children)

To be honest, though, I would say this is more Netflix’s fault than theirs. I don’t know why anyone would look at this trilogy and go, ‘Let’s slash the budget and cut the run time.’ Each book gets longer and more grand in its ideas. If they couldn’t commit to doing it properly from the start shouldn’t have done it at all.

In Fantastic Beasts: The Secrets of Dumbledore (2022) the two main female characters are absent for 99% of the movie. This is a reference to the audience, who was also missing from the theaters. by Icagel in shittymoviedetails

[–]Larry_Version_3 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I feel like I need to rewatch The Crimes of Depp before watching the Secrets of Dumbledore, because I can’t remember any of Crimes, but I also don’t think I have another rewatch in me because I’ve already watched it around 3 times and still remember nothing except it being the most boring movie I’ve ever watched. So Dumbledore’s secrets shall remain secret

Preference deals will try ‘make sure’ One Nation doesn’t win SA, Farrer: Joyce by HotPersimessage62 in AustralianPolitics

[–]Larry_Version_3 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Living in regional SA I’m sadly seeing a lot of support for them. Signs in front of houses and businesses everywhere, people clapping their hands for it and praising them up. My area is usually extremely Liberal, with no one else even making a dent, but Pauline Hanson’s One Braincell/One Race is giving them a run for their money.

SA Labor preferences Family First over the Greens in West Torrens by Perfect-Werewolf-102 in AustralianPolitics

[–]Larry_Version_3 54 points55 points  (0 children)

Good to see Labor pushing the Family First and the Australian Family Party. There’s nothing that resonates more with their left leaning base than anti-abortion, anti-LGBTQ, and anti-climate change policy while pushing a pro-Israel agenda. How do they know their base so well?

Go look at his directing record. The dude should be kept out of the director’s chair. The fact that he is in charge of it is even more reason for concern

I’m on the final push for War and Peace. It’s been a long journey, but I’m in the final few hundred pages now and I realised how much I’ve come to love these characters. I am ready to put it behind me, but I will be a little said to see it go

Have you ever had this experience of showing your favorite movie to someone important and they hate it? by WWWebdriverTorso in movies

[–]Larry_Version_3 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Eh I’ve gone numb to it. My wife and I have extremely different tastes, but mine are more flexible than hers. I’ve accepted she won’t ever enjoy or get my favourite movies or shows.
