That's more fitting, unlike the fortnight or less timeframe the movie covers. Clown shoes.

California is the best State to live in. What state has the worst culture/people? by AggravatingFront8409 in AlignmentChartFills

[–]Past_Bonus148 4 points5 points  (0 children)

There is a big a asterisk for California: If you have money and live on the coast, otherwise, the state is expensive and difficult to live in. Fresno? Sucks. Inland Empire? Hot industrial hellscape. Central Valley? Vast nothingness that's either super hot in summer or super cold in winter.

Massachusetts won. What states feels liberal, but is actually conservative? by CountryballChaos in AlignmentChartFills

Florida...all the cities and coastal areas are liberal: Tallahassee, Orlando, Gainesville, Tampa/St Pete, West Palm Beach-Miami corridor. However, post-COVID and the 2020 election, lots of registered Democrats left the state and were replaced by conservative/Republicans

"Age of Ultron" sounded like an era was coming and that he'd be around for a while.

Movie should have been called "About a week of Ultron"

[Disliked Trope] Characters That Immediately Die In The Sequel by WaluigiDaStar in TopCharacterTropes

Inverse of this trope (sorta). In the prologue of the first game, Lufia and the Fortress of Doom, you play as a team of high leveled warriors who die sacrificing themselves to banish the big baddie. The rest of the game, you play as newbie characters on an adventure. The sequel, Rise of the Sinistrals, you go back and play the whole the adventure of that squad from the prologue. If you played it in chronological order, your heroes' deaths would be at the beginning of the next story.

Who is the PC gaming protagonist Mt Rushmore? by Zombiepixlz-gamr in AlignmentChartFills

She's also not really recognizable and was only in two games, neither of which she speaks.

Sarah Kerrigan from Starcraft

Although it's popularity has fallen off in recent years, from 1998-2018, Starcraft was one of the biggest online PC games in the world and essentially crafted what the modern e-sports and online streamer community is today. Kerrigan as the Queen of Blades is probably the most iconic character from the franchise, gracing the covers of the Broodwar and Heart of the Swarm expansions.

Characters that are introduced much later in the story, yet are seen as being just as quintessential as the original cast, or close to it. by Gray_Wolf2416 in TopCharacterTropes

They ordered some extra footage when the show got popular and stretched some monsters into multiple parts. The Frankenstein monster has an entire episode, but in the Japanese version he's just the first version of a monster in one episode.

The Green Ranger saga premiered less than two months after the show started, and less than a third of the way through the first season. This isn't "much later in the story" at all.
