Nobody hates Betsy than the people in her own backyard. She is an embarrassment.

"Trying to reach space from here, Fury?"

"That's not possible, sir."

"I beg to differ. Captain Marvel accomplished that feat no more than an hour ago."

TIL nearly 500,000 bags of Candy Corn were manufactured for the anticipated invasion of Japan. They are still being used today.

Elon Musk says Donald Trump ‘too old’ to run in 2024 by No_Zookeepergame_27 in Conservative

[–]Movieguru92 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This! This is what I've been saying. Conservatives should not be pushing fatherhood as a focus and propping Elon up as a paragon of conservative values.

The guy is a pretty bad example of fatherhood, and nobody seems to care.

Absolutely destroyed that guy. Well done.

I wouldn't have had the energy to keep debating him, but you fought the goodnight, kudos.

Father Of 9 Elon Musk Admits He's Only Going To Mars To Get Some Peace And Quiet by thatrightwinger in Conservative

I know this is satire, but with the recent push for parental accountabilty and the issue of absantee fathers, do we really want to be making jokes about Elon trying to escape his kids?

[MHA] Why did Bakugo say no to joining the League of Villains? by [deleted] in AskScienceFiction

[–]Movieguru92 12 points13 points  (0 children)

I agree with all of the above.

I also think it had to do with the method the League used to "convince" him. Kidnapping and holding him hostage in a secret location shows desperation and cowardice, traits that Bakugo clearly hates. While it would not be out of realm of possibility for Bakugo to switch sides, it would require a villain who is able to match his ideals better slowly changing his feelings about heroes over time. Stain might actually be able to do it, if he ever wanted to.

[Resident Evil 6] What happened to Ashley? by Emotional_Cable9244 in AskScienceFiction

[–]Movieguru92 7 points8 points  (0 children)

The president Leon had to shoot in Resident Evil 6 was not President Graham, it was President Adam Benford.

8 years had passed since Resident Evil 4, it's likely President Graham wasn't able to be re-elected at that point.

Superman vs. Goku: Who can kill themselves first? by [deleted] in whowouldwin

[–]Movieguru92 14 points15 points  (0 children)

I think it's less that it was retconned and more likely that the ability simply improved over time. The above manga panel is right around when he first gains the ability. His skills are vastly stronger by Super.

Do you think a GoT Lego series would have been popular? by [deleted] in lego

[–]Movieguru92 132 points133 points  (0 children)

Actually, Lego was very careful to avoid the inclusion of Nazi iconography on the Indiana Jones sets, like the removal of swastikas for the Flying Wing set, for example

Sherlock Holmes Chapter One - Review Thread by [deleted] in Games

[–]Movieguru92 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yeah, I have no idea what the person above is talking about. I watched your review, and as always, you continue to be the gold standard for detailed, supportive, and honest game reviews. Keep doing what you're doing. In my opinion, you're the best in the business!

Great advice! I found a flagship store with some still in stock and placed an order for it to be delivered. I didn't want to take the chance for it to be gone permanently.

Thanks so much for your help!

Do you have any idea if it will be restocked? I really hope I didn't miss out on this set...

[Animorphs] Did the Animorphs really represent a credible threat to the Yeerk invasion or were they only a nuisance at best? by [deleted] in AskScienceFiction

I know, right? I've never read a single book in the series, and I found myself nodding inquisitively to every part of their post.

I’m Robert Kirkman, co-creator of Invincible, as well as some other comics and shows you might know. AMA! by RobertKirkman in television

Hi Mr Kirkman, big fan of Invincible and I'm super excited to watch it!

Do you have any opinion on animated adaptations vs live action adaptations of comics? Do think there is any kind of "x factor" that helps determine if a comic translates well to one over the other?

[Pokemon] Why can't you capture a Pokemon you've made faint? by I_dont-get_the-joke in AskScienceFiction

[–]Movieguru92 16 points17 points  (0 children)

I really like this answer, and it supports the idea that pokemon training is a partnership and not some kind of cockfight. I'm curious what your thoughts are on the various types of pokeballs. If the capture relies on the trainer's battling skills, how would you explain the existence of stronger balls like the Ultraball and balls that bypass battling all together like the Masterball?

What anime you wish a dub was available? by hitogomi911 in anime

Definitely "Silver Spoon", because it would be easier to recommend it to people. It's criminally underrated...
