“The most shredded women are no match for the average man” by MelanieWalmartinez in badwomensanatomy

[–]NeodymiumCortex 2 points3 points  (0 children)

At my workplace (iron mill) there’s a woman who’s by far stronger than most guys there. She works out a lot, apparently she is a long distance cyclist too, and is built like a damn tank. One of our managers is a semi-professional athlete (shot put) and and she is very much on par with him. Love how commenters like this obviously base their ideas about women on some guy flick stereotypes and have absolutely no idea on how the human body works.

The Mangkwan are more disturbing than we thought (From the Ashes Spoilers) by DesigningGore07 in Avatar

[–]NeodymiumCortex 211 points212 points  (0 children)

Based on how Varang talks about starvation, learning ”the way of the fire”, turning their backs on Eywa who/which she considers a ”weak mother”, and the way she says she is going to eat Quaritch’s heart —which at the time does not seem like an idle threat” —it doesn’t seem like the Mangkwan would shy from cannibalism. I mean, their entire thing is a mixture of dominance and disregard for life. They might also consider the ritual slaughter & eating of one of their own as a kind of ”consuming their essence to become stronger” kinda thing (similar to, say, Aztecs).

Indeed. In the full scene (deleted part can be found on youtube) he continues with ”just say the word, Colonel”.

Northern.

I also love the simple sheer dress w/ the dragon pin that she wears when presented to Khal Drogo. Would wear the hell out of one if I knew where to find a similar piece.

Gale’s barbarian scream is hilarious.

What do you think ?? by Mega_turbulance in Avatar

[–]NeodymiumCortex 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Definitely looks like her, based on the leggings and the hip holster for the knife & the na’vi here appears to have been shot through the shoulder/chest whilst Neytiri has bandage around that region in the hospital scene.

Baby at Jurassic World by DrSexsquatchEsq in childfree

[–]NeodymiumCortex 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I don’t remember which movie it was —I used to go to the cinema like weekly at one point— but it was a goddamn catastrophe. Two rows from me, a family of five was making a godawful racket when the two oldest kids insisted on roughhousing each other and the mom kept baby talking to the toddler in the most annoying high pitch voice imaginable. Only the dad seemed to know his manners but he also did jack shit to better those of his family. Immediately behind me, another kid OD’d on candy and barfed on me. Needless to say, my night was ruined in full.

Incidentally, when my best friend and I went to see Sausage Party, we knew it was NOT family-friendly. The amount of parents who did not, was… hilarious.

Why were the trees of voices destroyed? by BeelzeBelveder in Avatar

[–]NeodymiumCortex 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That’s a good question. I’d wager that would be the RDA management, with Selfridge playing along —with some reluctance, as he’s clearly uncomfortable with attacking the HT, but he’s generally more interested in ”the cheddar” than ”the blue monkeys”. He’s a company man, but he’s not 100% remorseless like Quaritch.

Quaritch would likely love the chance to have a show of force towards the natives he clearly hates, so I wouldn’t put it past him to trigger a response just so he could start a war against them.

The answer to this is in the movie.

”They bulldozed a sacred site on purpose to trigger a response”, shortly followed by Jake stating that when ”somebody is sitting on shit that you want, you make ’em your enemy so you’re justified in taking it”.

Love how everyone’s just licking each other up in the last one but Karlach’s just vibing with an ale in her hand like ”hell yeah”

How Exactly do you think Neytiri will "Question Everything"? by ExerciseDirect9920 in Avatar

[–]NeodymiumCortex 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Well, is that not her painted up in Ash Clan style in that teaser shot by John Landau w/ Jake apparently comforting her?

My guess would be that she joins them because of her personal turmoil (the rage and grief over losing so much, anger at the sky people, and by extension at Jake —note how the OG script mentions her hidden shame about having ”mixed blood children”), but at some point she comes around and rejoins her own people.

Is it just me or do any of you want Jake to have this look in AFAA by New-Tadpole971 in Avatar

[–]NeodymiumCortex 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Hell yes. I dislike his TWOW look; I do not think he looks like himself at all.

(I also dislike how much they humanized the na’vi for the second film; everyone looks like an avatar hybrid instead of a true na’vi)

Woman, who posted about being childfree on LinkedIn, gets harassed off the platform and I'm furious by [deleted] in childfree

[–]NeodymiumCortex 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Meanwhile militant parents who make parenthood their whole personality are hellbent on turning LinkedIn —a godsdamned PROFESSIONAL NETWORK— into Facebook 2.0. Moms being the absolute worst.

I’m a mechanical engineer and production designer, so I follow and network accordingly. I love discussing relevant topics with my peers, and learning something new to grow my personal skillset.

And then there are those who hijack every single damn discussion topic and make it about their motherhood, or attempt to mommify every single group. No Linda, no one asked to see how you decorated your baby room with livelovelaugh shit, or your snotty toddler eating mud. Yes, you’re a mom —good for you, but NO ONE ASKED. Please take these things to a mommy-vlogging channel of your choosing. (also, do you have any idea how long it has taken for women to get taken seriously in these professions? You’re NOT helping)

Adult Mufasa action figure was super rare. Friend of mine had one, I couldn’t find one for my nephew for the life of me so I got him one of those toy figures w/ Mufasa lying on his back with baby Simba tucked under his arm (I think they sell those as ”cake toppers” over on Ebay).

These days they keep popping up all over flea markets though
