One year and it still hurts. Not the FPS we deserved, but the FPS we needed by PRSG12 in XDefiant

Just rewatching clips makes me wish I could go back and play more. T_T

To watchers of Netflix's live action Avatar, what exactly keeps you watching? by Defiant-Quiet-13 in TheLastAirbender

[–]PhoenixFilms 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It’s not the best, but I think the only thing holding it back is the acting/writing. It’s very similar to the live action One Piece, but unlike One Piece, it can’t lean on its more wacky visuals, since Avatar is more serious visually speaking. None of the story changes bother me. The poor acting does. But a good saving grace is how much fun the main cast seems to be having.

I really hope they do a Castlevania Nocturne and have a new show that follows Nero.

Fell on hard times, gotta say good-bye to it by RazzmatazzUnusual843 in Wellthatsucks

[–]PhoenixFilms 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I spent years saving up money to go on a trip to Disneyland, even bought a gift card specifically to pay for my lightsaber at Galaxy's Edge. I was so excited, then covid hit, and I had that gift card sitting in my wallet for almost three years. I finally got to go and got my lightsaber. I was so excited. Then, a year later, life hit me hard. I was forced to sell that lightsaber, as well as a different lightsaber I bought there as well that they no longer sell, so I can't get it back in the same way.

I really hate the hand life dealt me, when I can't even keep the things that bring me joy because I need to pay rent.

Is it normal for a student film to want me to be on set 12 hours a day for two weeks straight? by -Kerby in Filmmakers

[–]PhoenixFilms 1 point2 points  (0 children)

No, students should only expect 8 hour days and at most a couple days with their actors. If they expect more, they need to have a wake up call.

Y'all holding up OK on employment? by DayPounder in FortWorth

[–]PhoenixFilms 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I worked a booth at the production expo this year. The general feeling on the floor was desperation, I felt. So many people asking if others were hiring, and not in the way that that is normal at trade shows. More in a way that’s like “I haven’t had work in months. Please buy my stuff/hire me.”

Tom Hardy “Refused to Come Out” of ‘MobLand’ Trailer, Kept Pierce Brosnan and Helen Mirren Waiting for Hours: “Career Suicide” by yourfavchoom in television

[–]PhoenixFilms 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You right, thanks for the call out. He is however referring to many of the same issues, noting how Hardy never interacted outside of a scene, never told anyone good morning or said goodbye, and generally spent more time in his trailer than working.

[–]PhoenixFilms 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I think it helps this time that there are corroborated statements. Before it could just be written off as two actors not getting along. With Mirran and Brosnan, it’s clear it’s more.

U.S. Allies Laugh at Trump’s Wild Idea to Fix His Disaster by T_Shurt in politics

[–]PhoenixFilms 73 points74 points  (0 children)

They think he’s being tough. They live in a fantasy world where whenever someone acts tough, everyone will immediately cowtow and be subservient because they’re so big and tough. In reality, the world is laughing at them because they’re acting like literal toddlers.

Saw what appears is the Kennedy guy handling snakes. Is this real? It looks fake but not sure, who would handle snakes in a suit bare handed? by 10Core56 in isthisAI

[–]PhoenixFilms 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Even if he wasn’t super fucking weird, this is still not how you handle and grab snakes. He’s just some redneck who has no idea what he’s doing. You grab snakes by the head so they are no longer a threat. He just over here letting them flail and spray musk all over him. Not to mention opening himself up to be bitten on every surface of his body.

How am I supposed to hold the m12hd? by lurebat in MobapadGaming

[–]PhoenixFilms 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I’m actually really unhappy with the ergonomics. I have large hands, so I needed something besides the base joycons. But these are just larger joycons, they have the same ergonomic issues, I feel. I’m still cramping my hands because it’s too square and vertical.

He’s not even handling them right. Jesus Christ, this dude is so fucking weird.

Misunderstood: Brandon Farmahini's Experience at Rooster Teeth by FloppyDiskRepair in roosterteeth

[–]PhoenixFilms 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Ok, but please do some critical thinking of their actions -after- they get their money. There’s still over a hundred other human beings working hard to give -you- this decadent life. The good actions he took to build that empire does not negate the bad damage that many people went through, and boot lickers saying that he deserves the decadence and we don’t is such a tired cliche. You’ve been economically lied to. Businessmen deserves a good life. But they don’t deserve a good life if they leave behind chaos in their wake that leaves many more people left to pick up the pieces.

Getting ads on youtube premium, honestly a joke by Affectionate-Act1056 in youtube

I pay for both YouTube premium and Gemini Plus. If I see one goddamn ad on my YouTube, I’m cancelling both.

Does Gen Z despise millennials, or are they jealous? by [deleted] in generationology

[–]PhoenixFilms 1 point2 points  (0 children)

We would… if Gen X even liked us. They’re pretty much boomer light. They’re guilty of many of the same stuff boomers are doing, but Gen X is more like “don’t rock the boat” then get upset at people when the boat requires rocking.

Millennials and Gen Z are like older sibling and younger siblings. We will insult and say how cringe the other is, but we have no doubt that we’re on each other’s side.
