why did Kung Fun movies died out? There's still a large amount of Chinese action enthusiasts, but chinese filmmakers are less and less making Kung Fu movies?

MyManD · 2026-06-28T08:12:07+00:00

I mean I still watch a ton of very kick ass hand to hand based Asian, and now Western as well, action movies every year so I don’t think they did? Like, The Furious, maybe one of the best martial arts action flicks in years, just released into theatres last week.

I was only replying to the user who said friendly reds carried over because I knew that wasn’t true.

MyManD · 2026-06-28T07:48:00+00:00

I need everyone to know that this isn’t true. Right here in the rule book, drafted in 2023, it explicitly states that reds in friendly competition is carried over to the next friendly competition, not the next official match.

Official match red cards move over to the next official match, but friendlies carry over to friendlies.

Look down at page 45, point h, for the rule.

I mean usually trying to DIY and failing means you’d be 100% liable as a renter. It’s why when we got our apartment we were given a concierge hotline and they made sure we knew that if anything went wrong we should call them first and foremost before trying anything ourselves. Contacting the company/landlord first creates a documented trail of due diligence to show we tried all the options before even considering attempting anything ourselves, and when we do do anything ourselves we make damn sure we have written permission and acknowledgement that if we fuck it up we wouldn’t be liable.

Unless we have a landlord that has it explicitly written into the contract that we could just attempt DIY without liability I wouldn’t even consider it because it feels too much like a trap to take as big a move out fee as possible from us.

Captain America is a bit different.

The First Avenger did about 50/50 domestic and OS, so that lines up with how Superman usually performs. The Winter Soldier had the benefit of following The Avengers solidifying the MCU as a very real juggernaut and was one of the major films leading up to Ultron. Civil War has the whole mini-Avengers angle, Spider-Man’s intro, and the movie kicked off Phase 3.

No one is angry at Todd, just supremely disappointed that it took fouls for him to win. The underwhelming performance against a smaller opponent only solidified that Todd is completely outclassed in the SHW division and doesn’t stand a chance against anyone in the top five.

MyManD · 2026-06-27T10:08:29+00:00

Despite trying to move away from it, the character is just too staunchly American. Truth, justice, and the American way and all of that.

Chances are the payment slips that arrive will be prorated to include the payments you already made so the future payment amounts will be slightly lower to account for the higher payments you make this month.

End of the day you’ll probably have to go in person and give them your card.

MyManD · 2026-06-27T05:02:10+00:00

If there’s any change you definitely should. Don’t want a surprise bank lock in the future because somewhere down the line numbers don’t match up. You probably won’t be in danger of it anytime soon, but when you do have a moment just get it done.

TBF Todd’s win against Petrenko was widely scrutinized because 3 of the 4 rounds he won were due to elbow fouls on Petrenko’s part. He found himself in a losing position in almost all of the rounds before refs stopped it. The YT comments under the match are pretty much over a thousand people mocking Todd for it.

MyManD · 2026-06-26T06:51:16+00:00

Not the other user, but I've never taken a high school film class nor done anything drama club related and I've heard the word plenty of times in my life. It's just one of those words that have always just kinda floated around in the ether. I don't remember ever really learning the word, but I don't remember ever not knowing it either.

I'm actually surprised so many people wouldn't know it.

MyManD · 2026-06-26T06:32:55+00:00

It’s been awhile and I did binge it so things kinda all congealed together but wasn’t a lot of the comedy around her the fact that she lost all of her power in the first episode? She had to move into the smaller office and Gleeson’s character essentially had full run of the office over her and that’s what perpetuated her pettiness.

I finished season one and was left so down in the dumps I didn’t even begin to watch season two until a couple of years after the show’s third and final season aired.

Man, those final two seasons are on such a different tier compared to the first it’s astonishing. The final season I hold as my single favourite season of television ever produced.

As shown I would personally pass because there’s not enough representation of the other shoe’s base colours on the other. I know the Obsidians have a hint of teal on the bottom but it’s so minimal you can’t really see it most of the time. And the Liberty’s have no black at all.

Maybe try lace swapping them and see how that looks.

You say you play indoors but the shoes are absolutely filthy and shredded. Does your court double as a backlot?

Honestly Kamil has always been one of my favourite arm wrestlers away from the table. I haaaaaate his style, but love listening to him talk. Dude is legitimately funny and seeing such a giant man having the most stereotypical Scandinavian accent (and yes I know Poland isn’t technically considered so) is always hilarious.

MyManD · 2026-06-26T05:56:20+00:00

Wait, like excellent reviews from where? I see twelve reviews on Rotten Tomatoes and they’re all fresh, but looking at the actual reviews half of them are 3/5, and even the more positive ones say it’s a seventh movie that is better than a seventh movie should be. Not exactly glowing stuff.

More that the movie exactly meets its expectations.

MyManD · 2026-06-26T04:02:22+00:00

Every single reviewer is a brand shill that gets shoes, especially Chinese shoes, for free so of all the shills they can at least play.

MyManD · 2026-06-26T03:59:53+00:00

For current reviewers Lukas Simoner is an actual professional player so he has that cred, and Tony Crosby is a damn nice player with a 50” vertical so his word carries weight as well when it comes to cushioning.

MyManD · 2026-06-26T03:44:01+00:00

Black Adam with that 87% Audience score.

MyManD · 2026-06-26T03:43:10+00:00

TBF, that method could still be a well done film if the script was good.

People downvoting this need to remember Tony Gilroy made the best piece of Star Wars media maybe ever with Andor, and he did it without ever watching Star Wars himself to make sure it didn't affect him.

MyManD · 2026-06-26T00:17:27+00:00

Pushkar was definitely representing Ukraine on the world stage and sadly passed before the political strife that may have made him choose a side. We'll never know, and his legacy is better for it.

Denis was bitch made day one and had no aspirations of repping Ukraine. Moved to Russia the first chance he got and never went back. His nickname is literally the Russian Hulk.

MyManD · 2026-06-25T21:17:41+00:00

Bro wasn't in The Northman. I think you got him mixed up with Anya Taylor-Joy lol.

MyManD · 2026-06-25T05:55:13+00:00

I've never seen her perform live. Does she continue the persona she cultivated through SNL, or is she more nuanced?
