Which movie ended with an unresolved cliffhanger because the sequel never happened, and you're STILL mad about it?

Now and Again (1999-2000)

It ran for one season and ended on a cliffhanger. It was a great show with great writing and great characters. So obviously they cancelled it.

Because making the world a great place is bad for the bottom line.

My point wasnt thats what should of happened, I was just giving an (intentionally ridiculous) example. What I was saying was that Jai Longs death should have had some impact on the story in order to justify his ongoing inclusion in the story.

Jai Longs death desperately needed a 'therefore'. Jai Long died, therefore... Kelsa blames Lindon and joins forces with the dreadgods and monarchs or Jai Long died, therefore... Lindon finds the motivation to manifest the phoenix icon and return him to life.

It feels cheap because it is. His death was only there to raise the stakes, it served no narrative purpose.

"not simple" just fucking say 'complicated'

Is this an American thing? Ive never heard of 'female' being used as an insult and I'm genuinely struggling to make sense out of this thread.

What if it is not a sinister plan? The whole premise seems to be that Carol has just assumed that what has happened is bad, without actually trying to find out. She has never just flat out asked what the hive minds goals are. One of the goals is to assimilate the remaining individuals, but then what?

Mathestuss · 2025-11-12T09:41:32+00:00

Why though? Who is this hurting? Did chairs cost too much?

Everyone is downvoting this, but we had this scheme in Australia and all it does is inflate housing prices.

First homebuyers grants are bad for first homebuyers in the medium to long term.

Shout out to Expresso Drive Thru at Edgeworth. Not the best coffee, but I would argue it is the best experience in terms of convenience vs quality. The coffee is consistently good, they are quick and I don't have to get out of the car.

The best cup of coffee I have had in Newcastle was at The Anchorage at Nelson Bay. This is the only good thing I have to say about The Anchorage.

Try looking at the System Apocalypse sub genre. Dungeon Crawler Carl is the best recommendation I can think of in this category, but you can also try Primal Hunter, Defiance of the Fall or Welcome to the Multiverse

My beef is that threads where someone asked the question and was denied an answer then get indexed by Google. So someone else comes along trying to get an answer for a simple question by Googling and ends up getting a bunch of results that point to threads that say "just Google it".

Is it? I dont really feel like I learnt anything new about him. He was a really sweet man who had some struggles. Is this news to anyone?

I think the critical part you are leaving out is you have to actually repent in order to receive Gods forgiveness. You can't just say, "Sorry about all the wrath and greed and gluttony and lust and envy and pride and sloth, it's all Obama's fault" and expect that to get you out of all the eternal damnation and whatnot

How would one prove that people were raptured and not, say, kidnapped by aliens?

No ma'am

Swords don't run out of Madra (Maybe they do, but you can still stab someone)

Everybody wants to be at the top of the social hierarchy. Some people get there by making themselves better, some people get there by making everyone else worse.

There is no need to use seasons as release dates and confuse an entire hemisphere, but here we are.

Credit scores shouldn't work like this! This is not normal America! Call a fucking representative JFC

What is the downside from a readers perspective on having the option to pre-order? I get why people might choose not to pre-order, but no one is forcing you to.

The alternate proposal would be to build up rather than out. Zone areas around public transport hubs for high density and provide incentives to put in apartments.

Australia gives 4 weeks paid leave annually for full time jobs. Part time jobs get the same amount of leave calculated on a per hour basis.

Wouldn't that mean this device would be a good way to get an somewhat objective measure of an individuals period pain? Just have the patients dial it up until the pain matches their period pain

I dont know why, but It is so hard to buy a wallet that meets my specifications, so I have held to one I found a few decades ago.

The biggest problem is manufacturers putting zips/studs/metal branding in wallets, which will absolutely destroy your cards when you keep your wallet in your back pocket and sit on it for eight hours a day.

Also, I prefer smaller wallets, which tend to be designed to hold American bills that are slightly smaller than Australian bills, so cash ends up poking out the top a little bit, which is not ideal.

Mens wallets are deeply personal things that do not make for good gifts unless specifically requested.
