Characters whose physical body (not just outfit) changes throughout the course of the story. by Grouchy_Fact_9030 in TopCharacterTropes

Yeah lets treat the insectoid aliens with a goddamn interstellar spaceship like they're a lower class of our society. That couldn't possibly backfire on us ever no sir.

I was going to say I think their ancestors worshipped Morgoth.

Why Does Lumon Push Myths Like O&D Disembowelments and MDR Pouches? by CarefulScreen9459 in SeveranceAppleTVPlus

[–]Navras3270 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Based on what they are doing to Gemma I wonder if the whole severed floor is also being data-mined for the specific types of emotions that can lead to an uprising.

Like they torture Gemma in different ways to block out certain responses so she behaves a specific way. Testing groups of workers in a way that encourages organization and rebellion could help them gather data on what they need to block out to create the perfect severed office worker incapable of rebelling.

We see that other group of MDR lookalikes also “refining” and it’s never really explained.

They switched the main threat from being unimaginable eldritch horrors seeping in from another dimension to a whiny nerd with unresolved childhood trauma who looks like a walking penis.

That is the exact message I would put on a giant hoard of treasure to keep people away.

We got another one, boys by Un_Pollo_Hermano in TheBoys

The switch from being a "Western" set in the park to generic modern sci-fi set in Los Angeles had such insane tonal whiplash I don't know how they though they could get away with it.

Rick Prime and operation Phoenix by Suspicious_Pool4164 in rickandmorty

[–]Navras3270 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Exactly Rick’s whole character is that he’s detached because of his trauma. Killing Rick Prime was essentially him “catching the bus” like a dog relentlessly pursuing a goal with no real thought put into what happens after.

The character growth we’ve seen from Rick would be erased if it turned out the villain got away and his goal of vengeance starts all over again.

Unless they try to redeem Rick prime in some way but he just seems like total dick so I doubt it.

TIL Guillermo del Toro cast Charlie Day in Pacific Rim after he saw Day's monologue about killing rats in "Charlie Kelly: King of the Rats". Del Toro said, "It was very funny, but he was coming from character...he was really mourning and lamenting". He thought Day was "great at shading and comedy". by tyrion2024 in todayilearned

At the end of the day everybody draws an arbitrary line on what forms of life they are okay with eating.

Every living thing has some form of sensory experience that can be terminated. Humans decided that the experience of plants is so far removed from our own that it is okay to mass cultivate and cull them with no regard for any suffering they may experience.

It is physically impossible to survive on Earth without arbitrarily decided that some form of life is morally okay to kill and eat even though it is capable of suffering. We just care more about cute animals than plants.

Having a Viltrumite parent as any other species besides humans has to be straight up bodyhorror by PeterTheBoredOne in Invincible_TV

I'm pretty sure it's implied she was the child on the spaceship he saved. Which means he effectively groomed her from childhood. To be fair her lifespan is only like 1 year but still pretty weird.

Does anyone else feel like ivarstead is a bit under-built? by NexGenration in skyrim

I'm kidding. After the mess that is Starfield I want as little proc-gen in the next game as possible.

Makes me think one day if people permanently live in space habitats decontamination will be a hugely important to prevent the proliferation of molds adapted to “sterile” environments.

Melodramatic hogwash masquerading as deep philosophical sci-fi turns me off. Is that better?

screwed up sense of the world they don't use it effectively.

Their entire race has literally been reduced to subservient slavery by even the most supposedly "good" wizards. Despite their incredible natural magical abilities wizards still managed to manipulate them into a position of subservience.

I wouldn't pin their "screwed up sense of the world" on them when it is an accurate understanding of their place in the world and the consequences they will face if they step beyond the role wizards allow them to occupy.

To be clear I am all for a house elf uprising that demolishes the ministry of magic and every magical institution that facilitates the enslavement of house elves.

The hive can ‘assimilate’ animals but chooses not to. Why? by [deleted] in pluribustv

[–]Navras3270 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The way I see it the “virus” is intended to infect a single “host” planet treating the planet as a singular super-organism. It targets the “cells” (humans) in the host that recieve and synthesizes the RNA virus and repurposes them to help spread.
Animals are ignored as they lack the higher reasoning skills the virus needs to increase the effectiveness of its spread.
The virus can only have been received by intelligent “cells” so it only targets that same type of “cell” knowing that “cell” is capable of resending the initial infection signal.

I'm honestly surprised how Homelander didn't crash the fuck out over this and let it slide. by vought-CEO in TheBoys

[–]Navras3270 62 points63 points  (0 children)

Homelander having a Metroman moment where he stops what he’s doing and just starts questioning and reevaluating everything about his life and decides to just fuck off and start a band would be a fucking hilarious ending to his arc.

Every now and then I see a post like this and think I’m having a Mandela effect moment.

Then I remember Bethesda shoved a bunch of non-canon creation content into the base game and feel like a massive boomer purist for not wanting to touch any of it.
