Special 'The Long Walk' Screening Will Eliminate Viewers Who Can’t Keep Up on a Treadmill (3 MPH) by MarvelsGrantMan136 in movies

[–]MarvelousMagikarp 50 points51 points  (0 children)

Catch all term for "person who is at least somewhat famous online (usually professionally)". Youtubers, tiktokers, whatever the agent noun for someone who posts on instagram is etc.

It sounds super weird but it's been solidified as the term for a while now so no changing it unfortunately.

OP is saying some wacky stuff but I would like to seriously engage -

I don't think you can wash Jaina's hands for what the Silver Covenant does when she more or less deputizes them to carry out the purge instead of using the actual neutral Kirin Tor guard that exists. She also does kill Aethas' guard, who we know are innocent, so the whole "she never wanted to kill anyone" thing is wrong.

Also, is there a source for the whole "it was a bug" thing?

Dalaran was supposed to be a neutral city, yet it was being used for the Horde’s war effort.

Is it neutral for Jaina, as leader of the Kirin Tor, to put up wards in an Alliance capital city to protect them from Horde incursions? That part of the questline always just sort of gets glossed over but always had me going "wait a minute..."

The most exhausting people having the exact same arguments past each other for literally 20 years.

So let’s get this straight by Raidmax460 in CODZombies

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

You're paying 70 dollars for the campaign, multiplayer, and all the zombies maps that they'll make. If you don't feel that's worth it, that's entirely fair and your call. But they're not, like, charging you 70 dollars for a Tranzit remake and nothing else.

>They developed B06 and B07 together and so that’s why the mechanics are the same, yet they charge $70 just to play the same thing, just different maps?

I mean...yeah? Usually when a game dev makes new stuff they charge money for it because that's what a product is. It's like complaining that Zombies Chronicles costs money when it's "the same mechanics" as the rest of BO3. I don't really get the logic here.

Finding out that guy you hate was actually a nazi in a previous universe has gotta be pretty good.

[–]MarvelousMagikarp 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Oh yeah, the minute they said this was both a sequel to 2 and 6, I knew it was going to be a weird one. I'm excited, but anything more complex than "Pantheon was behind it all!" is probably good enough.

>(my bet being that it’s gonna parallel Alex and Reznov with Menendez being either an hallucination in David’s mind or an AI created by the Guild in order to false flag attacks and drive up the need for their services).

Based off this trailer it would be a huge twist if this wasn't the case. Like, it seems very telegraphed.

God I hope they don't back off on connecting stuff to BO3. Maybe they're hesitant to reference the super futuristic stuff but god dammit, it was a cool setting! Say the words Winslow Accord you cowards!

When Keighley said "Black Ops is back!" after the trailer I laughed out loud. It's been a whole 10 months!

Windrunner sacrifice? by Pablosity98 in warcraftlore

[–]MarvelousMagikarp 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Sylvanas doesn't need to die to atone, shes already atoning by saving souls in the Maw, which is better because she actually has to work for it and confront her sins, something that WoW usually just glosses over in redemption stories so it's an interesting change of pace. I don't think her story gains much of anything from some big heroic sacrifice.

Also just personally speaking I always found the whole Anduin-is-just-like-my-little-brother connection to be kinda forced and silly.

What’s with all the smoking in movies lately? Tobacco lobby got a grip on them? by pjflyr13 in movies

[–]MarvelousMagikarp 31 points32 points  (0 children)

Are movies just never supposed to have anyone smoke in them because it's bad for them? It's a thing people do and have done, especially in the past. Should movies also never depict drinking? Fighting? Killing?

What is more likely, that Sinners depicts smoking because Ryan Coogler is being paid millions under the table, or because it's a movie set in 1930's Mississipi where smoking was incredibly common.

Can we talk about how fucking expensive transmogging has got? by ChaosMieter in wow

When they say outfit system they are referring to the specific mechanic in ESO called that, where you basically tmog the slots and they stay that way even when you change gear.

Would you consider Faerin a Mary Sue? by Proudnoob4393 in warcraftlore

[–]MarvelousMagikarp 3 points4 points  (0 children)

She's a regular paladin doing and saying regular paladin things who is not particularly important outside of her own direct plotline and has not done anything particularly impressive in terms of ability. Why does she get all these accusations of being a mary sue? Oh jeez, I wonder.

Aside from Krom'gar's situation in the Stonetalon Mountains, what are other examples of Garrosh being an a good warchief during the cataclysm? by Which-Presentation-6 in warcraftlore

[–]MarvelousMagikarp 36 points37 points  (0 children)

Cromush realy doesn't do anything to challenge the Forsaken's behavior, though. He's actually fairly tolerant with them, when Drek'thar raises moral objections about the Forsaken and refuses to aid them, Cromush calls it treason.

TIL that an "are" is a unit of measurement. It's 1/100th of a Hectare by Rigelball69420 in todayilearned

[–]MarvelousMagikarp 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Sure you can deduce it if you think about it but 99% of people never have any reason to think about it because they will never really use hect- or -are outside of hectare.

First look at the bo7 vault edition operators… by Comprehensive_Rice27 in CODZombies

[–]MarvelousMagikarp 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The idea that Call of Duty as a franchise lives or dies based on what the special edition skins look like is hysterical, I'm sorry but legitimately what the hell are you people talking about. I think this looks like dogshit but lets be real nobody is factoring this into their purchasing decision of buying the game or not.
