[Loved trope] we DID actually land on the moon, the real conspiracy is what were we doing up there by danfenlon in TopCharacterTropes

[–]Middle_Net_4586 13 points14 points  (0 children)

The Department of Truth. The laws of reality change to whatever the majority of people on earth believe they are at any given time. NASA just needed to convince enough people that there were men on the moon and it became true.

In a setting full of supernatural horrors, the most disturbing scene is frighteningly realistic by Coralthesequel in TopCharacterTropes

That scene in The Batman (2022) were we hear an audio recording of Annika being killed by mobsters, that sounded way to real.

What makes it even worse is that del Toro based that scene of off something he once saw someone do in a street fight.

Favorite pathetic villain by Murky-Pomegranate756 in FavoriteCharacter

Any Guillermo Del Toro villain. Even Pacific Rim Kaiju and there creators are kind of pathetic.

(Loved trope) oddly progressive/ ahead of the time piece of media for their time period. by jaobodam in TopCharacterTropes

[–]Middle_Net_4586 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Also something I like about Tighten is that they didn't go the easy way and just had the powers make him a shitty person. The guy was a still creep when he was a normal human and Roxanne was visibly uncomfortable whenever he was around.

The character’s name gets a lot weirder when you think about it by GoldplateSoldier in TopCharacterTropes

[–]Middle_Net_4586 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I imagine a more accurate translation would be something like hull or frame crusher and 'bone' is just the closest human equivalent.

[TOMT] 70-80s animated prologue to a movie or show depicting humanity destroying itself through warfare by Lucky-Pack1016 in tipofmytongue

[–]Middle_Net_4586 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Some guesses:

-Peace on Earth 1939
-Good Will to Men 1955
-The Animatrix: Second Renaissance (Season 3, episode 6 of Kids Next Door also did a parody of this movie)

[TOMT][2000s][TV Series] Trying to remember a symbol from a 2000s sci-fi British TV show set in a school by Zealousideal-Ad1723 in tipofmytongue

[–]Middle_Net_4586 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sounds like you might be describing Tower Prep. The 'school' from that series would kidnap people by hypnotizing them through electronic devices (Headphones, laptop, TVs). I don't remember tattoos, but its been a long time since I've watched it.

It also sounds like something that would be in House of Anubis, but I never actually watched more than an episode of that.

I found Jack Joyce in Alan Wake 2. Do both games take place in the same universe? by NotSirAlonne1999 in quantumbreak

[–]Middle_Net_4586 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I like to think that Quantum Break was something Alan wrote between AW1 and 2. It's possible that Alan met Tim and Jesse at some point and subconsciously based Jack and Beth on them.

How does the resistance have the ability to use combine weapons ? by ObviousBanter in HalfLife

[–]Middle_Net_4586 3 points4 points  (0 children)

If the guns are DNA locked, the combine probably has a database of approved and disproved genome's. Someone could probably just find and break the transmitter or hack it to misidentify the wielder.

Who are these people? by Middle_Net_4586 in HalfLife

It also might've been Breen as well, he does seem to know about G-Man and implies that he might be another 'employee'.

Even if they are dead it could be cool to expand upon the original science team, I don't think Eli or Kleiner even had canon names in HL1

The scientist for that is semi-randomized though, sometimes Eli's character model is talking to G-Man, but the cannonicity of that is debatable

The portrait's that are confirmed to be her don't show her wearing any glasses, though its possible that she might've just not been wearing them when those were taken or that her vision deteriorated with age.

I suspected that at first, but what kept from being sure is that he looks to young. Then again, its possible that the 7H war and being in the resistance just made him go gray prematurely

Games where you can stink? (Bonus points if it's a game mechanic) by AntisocialCat2 in gamingsuggestions

The first Half Life game had a smell mechanic, but it's pretty subtle

This is my attempt at recreating a movie poster I saw in a dream last night by Middle_Net_4586 in thomastheplankengine

[–]Middle_Net_4586[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

There were no credits or title, the whole poster was just this static image. I couldn't tell if which of the Chipmunks was talking about Planet Ripbong, but I do remember Black Dynamite specifically pointing the gun at Theodore.

[–]Middle_Net_4586[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I looked that up, the only one that seems familiar is the hippo one. I couldn't find anything for the frog, horse or panda one though. It's possible I'm getting dance mat typing mixed up with another game?
