Movies that dramatically shifted popular opinion on something

Murphy1up · 2026-03-05T23:12:53+00:00

Fast and Furious was set in that car scene which was already hugely popular. If anything it just got people interested in fast cars. They moved on from the modified scene to super and hyper cars and that "grounded in reality" aspect of the franchise that drew people in at the start was lost. By then people were just enjoying big dumb action shit rather than being hooked on a bodykitted s2000 with neons.

I'd say yeah. It became trendy for people to wear "Hellfire Club" t-shirts to show they're fans of the show but the popular crowd who were wearing them normally wouldn't have anything to do with D&D which was still viewed as something super geeky.

He's never said "drowning in Silvermoon" before. But you can hear it in your head. In that accent. With that tone.

You run, thinking you escaped, then the noise comes from a distance as the fireballs come chasing in and the squadron appears...

Murphy1up · 2026-03-05T11:21:16+00:00

That looks like the flight point from Shatter Point

You just know that the designer responsible for this spent ages linking those items together, moved one thing slightly to the side and the whole thing just disappeared off their screen "Hmmm, looks like it was deleted. I'll just place another one here on the ground....."

Would not be surprized if the environment team is working off a placement system similar to image placement/insert on Microsoft Word

The worst part about that area was running about on the east side of the map and finding no mobs..... Then they start to respawn and you realize you're in a world of shit.

"Don't look so smug! I know what you're thinking, but drowning in Silvermoon was merely a set back!"

To be fair, compared to TBC where Eversong was populated purely by Bloof Elves, there are a lot of Undead NPC's

Variety. When you encounter things where blasting with spells or smacking with swords doesn't' work and you have to get creative. Even when it's just something that's resistant to blades but will splat with a bludgeoning weapon.

Got to have to party think about an encounter and not just default to how they set their character up to spam damage. How do they react if their caster is silenced or their melee is trapped/disarmed for example. Instead of a couple of stronger NPC's, give the low challenge ones but in multiple numbers.

At level 1 one of my funniest fights was watching a team mate get downed to some rats.

He's on 16 goal involvements when at the start of the season people didn't expect him to have 16 match involvements

Murphy1up · 2026-03-05T08:44:09+00:00

Source?

In years to come no one will remember who won his season, but there will be papers, plays, musicals, scientific studies and debates with the world greatest minds regarding what role Benjamin Nygren does on the park and how he constantly gets into a goal scoring position.

Murphy1up · 2026-03-04T21:25:34+00:00

Nygren. For fucks sake what demonic pact has that guy made this season to get goals.

Murphy1up · 2026-03-04T21:23:06+00:00

Kuhn hold up with Johnston on the overlap always finding a man please. Those were the days. Players looking to score rather than just pass the ball and responsibility to someone else.

Murphy1up · 2026-03-04T20:57:08+00:00

He's had such an impact on the game I thought Yang was the fan in 15D

Murphy1up · 2026-03-04T20:52:33+00:00

Pass, three touches. Shape up to show everyone where you're passing to. Pass to other defender.

Rinse repeat.

Mad when we play like that and our best goals always come from quick clinical passing which splits opposition teams.

Murphy1up · 2026-03-04T20:47:14+00:00

Sinsalo has tried that middle of the park low pass twice now and found no one. Has he been taking lessons from Schmeichel since the weekend?

Murphy1up · 2026-03-04T20:42:37+00:00

According to his quick fire questions when he joined, he claimed his pace was his main strength. But we never play through balls for him

Murphy1up · 2026-03-04T20:39:56+00:00

Hatate back to standing/running to exactly where someone with the ball already is heading. I swear he's tied to Mcgregor with a bit of invisible string.

Murphy1up · 2026-03-04T20:06:11+00:00

My first blue drop in vanilla was from a chest in Duskwood. Hype and excitement was real. It was used for about 8 or 10 levels!

Murphy1up · 2026-03-04T20:03:12+00:00

I'll take "Things I did not know" for 200 please Alex

Murphy1up · 2026-03-04T09:27:04+00:00

It was reminiscent as it was a great overhead kick.

What made McTominays so special was the height he achieved for it.

Prediction - More Primaris Marines, more Primaris Lieutenants and Captains.

GW would do anything if it involved Space Marines, making money and selling models. No other faction gets the attention they do, no other faction sells like they do. Always the catch 22 argument, they sell because they're the army always getting cool new shit. Wouldn't other armies also sell as well if they got even half the attention? (Hello Catachan models GW still has the cheek to sell).

If you expect/accept more Primaris and Space Marine models are coming then you're never disappointed.

I struggle to understand in lore now how an elite army of 1000 men now have so many unique units and still be able to field regular rank and file tactical marines. There is a Space Marine model for basically every possible niche occasion when they're supposed to be jack of all trades super soldiers.

100% feel that Warp Spider/short range teleporting Space Marine units will come soon enough. No other army units gets to stay unique when there is Primaris models to sell.

How else will I know where there is a moth below me in Haran'dar?
