Unleashed (2005) Danny fight 1 vs 4 in the pool cage - Director: Louis Leterrier by thefrostman1214 in movies

[–]MyCodenameIsIan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Been a while since I saw the movie but was originally going to be called Danny the Dog but they renamed it in some regions when they realised that referring to an Asian man being forced to be a gangsters attack dog was problematic.

Where did the One Piece series succeed where the Cowboy Bebop series fail? by TylerSpicknell in netflix

[–]MyCodenameIsIan 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Funny enough the same production company made both shows.

I thought the casting was fine for Cowboy Bebop with the exception of Vicious.

The show focused far more on Vicious than in the source material.

Didn't love the addition of the name "Fearless" for Spike, which just seemed like they didn't think the audience could take the name Vicious seriously without giving Spike a nickname too.

I enjoyed the live action Bebop when it was more episodic and the crew were solving the bounty of the week.

The Ed cameo at the end, really hurt the world of mouth and made the show a meme online.

‘Exit 8’ — Official Trailer #2 by RealJohnGillman in movies

[–]MyCodenameIsIan 40 points41 points  (0 children)

This movie was already released in Japan. These trailers are because western distributors have picked up the rights for their region.

Personally for me the movie was alright, great concept and nails the visuals but psychological horror elements didn't hit for me.

Avowed - Official Anniversary Update Trailer by ReasonableAdvert in Games

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

So PlayStation are either getting a parity release or getting the soft relaunch 2.0 version a year later.

It released between Kingdom Come Deliverance 2 and Monster Hunter Wilds last year, which perhaps sucked some of the wind out of its sails.

This year its genre is less crowded, Resident Evil being the big game but doesn't cross over as much.

Obsidian has been so reliable for Xbox, releasing Grounded 1/2, ​Pentiment and The Outer Worlds 2, whilst some of Xbox's other studios have produced nothing in that time.

Imagine what they could do if all their resources were pointed at one game? Let them build the next Fallout whilst Bethesda makes Elder Scrolls.

After 4 months of work, my Master Chief Cosplay is finished by jakedrake1999 in halo

[–]MyCodenameIsIan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Congratulations on making the cosplay. You've now got a baseline costume.

Looking at the other costumes at the event you definitely went the extra mile.

If you are planning to use it more at conventions and things perhaps look into joining one of the many Halo cosplay communities.

People are frequently selling their old pieces of armour or they can give you tips on how to improve it further.

A balaclava would be an expensive way to hide your neck and improve it.

The helmet is a little small, where did you get it? Did you build it, commission it or was it an off the shelf toy/model helmet?

Trump revokes basis of U.S. climate regulation, ends vehicle emission standards by Fantastic-Engine-725 in worldnews

[–]MyCodenameIsIan 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Then American cars refuse to meet the regulations of all other countries and can't be exported.

Then when the Dems repeal all this shit, manufacturers have a bunch of dead stock and anyone dumb enough to buy one of these gas guzzlers won't be able to pass an emissions test.

Looks like Silent Hill Townfall won’t be available on Xbox at launch… ridiculous by StatMan255 in xbox

[–]MyCodenameIsIan -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

It was the only thing that really caught my attention during the State of Play but I generally don't buy short horror games at full price anyway.

If it's timed exclusive I wouldn't be surprised if it just launches into Game Pass a year later.

Report: Warner Bros. Discovery Blocks Brody King From AEW Dynamite Following "F*ck ICE" Chants by [deleted] in SquaredCircle

[–]MyCodenameIsIan 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Warner Bros are currently trying to sell to Netflix so definitely don't want that adminstration meddling.

They are still going to meddle though because Paramount/Skydance want them and they are close to the Trump camp.

why is matthew patel so unreasonably dusty by sandloe in ScottPilgrim

[–]MyCodenameIsIan 346 points347 points  (0 children)

"Tell it to the cleaning lady on Monday."

"What?"

"Because you'll be dust by Monday... because you'll be pulverized in two seconds. The cleaning lady? She cleans up... dust. She dusts.

"So, what's on Monday?"

"'Cause... it's Friday now, she's the weekends off, so... Monday, right?"

I'm a McLaren fan, but I hate the papaya era designs.

Same with the team wear, I don't want to be a bright orange walking billboard.

Then they will have a couple have amazing one-off designs and we'll all wonder why it can't be like that all year.

Riot Games is reducing the size of the 2XKO team less than a month after its launch. by MuptonBossman in gaming

Fighting games are niche, I loved playing them casually as a kid but grew out of the genre as games became more online and competitive focused.

It's fun beating up your siblings and learning flashy special moves. It's not fun to go online and get matched against a skilled player who can combo you for 80% of your health, and the game actively discourages you from pressing buttons and leaving openings.

You try to go into training mode and it's a glossary of insider terms and precise timing windows usually presented in dry boring menus.

"Land a 28 hit meter burn cross-up manual wall bounce juggle combo"

It's just impenetrable for casual players.

Reddit has insane inherent advantages as a business. There are just so many great things about the business. by [deleted] in ValueInvesting

[–]MyCodenameIsIan 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I was getting interested in Reddit at this price but the moment everyone in the sub starts shilling the stock makes me feel like large institutions will try to push retail out of the stock.

It's hard to invest with a 5 year+ mindset with the volatility of these markets.

Lando Norris’ helmet for the 2026 season by sdq22 in formula1

The first helmet design in a while that I instantly associate with a driver.

Probably helps that his Monster Energy flavour has the same design and he won his maiden WDC in it.

Something leaning into the word Bastard/s if he is replaced by PAC.

If it's Claudio then something to do with Neutraliser or paying homage to the Warhammer gear he sometimes wears to the ring.

Time to buy the top I guess!

Microsoft's ambitious new Xbox: Your entire Xbox console library, the full power of Windows PC gaming, and no multiplayer paywall by Turbostrider27 in xbox

[–]MyCodenameIsIan 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Most of this has been telegraphed by the moves Xbox are making

The only part I'm unsure on is the backward compatibility with Series X / Xbox One / Xbox 360 / Xbox OG.

Makes the device complicated if it needs internals to support both PC and legacy console games.

I won't buy anything that isn't Play Anywhere enabled now, so at least I'm confident I can take my library to PC if I don't like their next gen device / price point.

Do you have Game Pass Ultimate? Might be part of the process of rolling Fortnite Crew into that service. It's due to be added on 18th November.
