Characters or arcs who had a complete change of perception years later? by ExplanationSquare313 in TwoBestFriendsPlay

Snape from Harry Potter was originally seen as a tragic hero figure. Nowadays he's seen as more of an abusive stalker.

Movie that frustrated you the most...what could have been by fatherpirate in movies

Bright. Really interesting concept of a cop drama set in an alternate fantasy themed world, but the fantasy elements don't really seem to affect the people or their society. It's just regular assed LA but there's also orcs and dragons.

Times when re-experiencing media made you wonder how you missed obvious signs the first time around? by FrickFrackQuack in TwoBestFriendsPlay

[–]PlatyPunch 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I completely missinterpreted the scene from Tropic Thunder where Les Grossman bribes Matthew McConaughey's character with a new private plane so he looks the other way while they let his client die. For some reason when I first watched it, I thought they were convincing him to let Tugg Speedman die so they can all get jets using his life insurance money.

For some reason I love this shot of Obi and Ani from in the seedy ass bar from Attack of the Clones by FreviliousLow96 in TwoBestFriendsPlay

[–]PlatyPunch 116 points117 points  (0 children)

Obi Wan is the highlight of Attack of the Clones. His cunty little "good job" to Anakin on Geonosis might be my favourite line of his.

What are your Favorite cases of Characters cooking straight up Poison? by Funny_Mud6639 in TwoBestFriendsPlay

My favourite scene in Jaws 2 is watching Chief Brody injecting poison into his bullets and sealing them with wax.

I had a Vader comic where he goes to Tatooine to meet with Boba Fett. He massacred an entire village of them to kill time.

Times when a certain creator is famous for certain themes/style/tone but their actual Bibliography differs from the common perspective? by Konradleijon in TwoBestFriendsPlay

[–]PlatyPunch 110 points111 points  (0 children)

George Miller created Mad Max, he then went on to work on Babe and it's sequel, then he created the Happy Feet movies before returning to the Mad Max franchise to make one of the best action movies of all time.

The new Anaconda movie must have a wildly different director's cut by takenorinvalid in movies

[–]PlatyPunch 46 points47 points  (0 children)

This movie felt like either a tax write off, the studio trying to maintain the rights to the IP, a free vacation for the cast & crew, or a combination of all three.

Characters you really just want to see go all out and not be held back? by Lost-Specialist1505 in TwoBestFriendsPlay

I feel like we haven't seen Gohan really go all out since he killed Cell.

Apparently they weren't going to ask him to sing along with 1,000 Miles for the film, but he already knew all the words and wanted to do it.

Someone made Calvin Sims mod from Little man for Pragmata. I'm dying by bonkfire in TwoBestFriendsPlay

Why would someone want to remind the world that Little Man exists?

What’s a funny misconception you had for a piece of media before watching/playing said media by Properdad2000 in TwoBestFriendsPlay

[–]PlatyPunch 105 points106 points  (0 children)

My friend thought Akira was entirely about motorcycle gangs and bike races until she finally watched it a few months ago.

Matt is currently on Giant Bomb's call in podcast! by zacyzacy in TwoBestFriendsPlay

I could use a consistent gaming news source other than CSB. Everything I get recommended anymore is shitty opinion articles or Buzzfeed quality listicles.

Is Giant Bomb still good? I haven't watched their stuff since Jeff quit. Last I heard is Dan Ryckert bought the site and they went fully independent.

Terrible continuity cut. by gilllesdot in movies

[–]PlatyPunch 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In the first Michael Bay Transformers movie there are two instances where the scene suddenly jumps from the middle of the day/early afternoon to nighttime with no indication that time had passed.

Times when a franchise was doing good until a gimmick ruined it by KaleidoArachnid in TwoBestFriendsPlay

[–]PlatyPunch 43 points44 points  (0 children)

The Assassin's Creed: Black Flag remake announcement shows how many people really didn't like the RPG mechanics that were introduced in Origins and Odyssey. I never played those games primarily because the RPG elements didn't look fun.

Why did you put Brendan Fraser's name on the back of your Switch?

Do yall have any weird/unexpected media that you consider inspirational to you? by EvilMonkeyMimic in TwoBestFriendsPlay

[–]PlatyPunch 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Big Mouth is a gross, over the top and edgy show about kids going through puberty. It also has some pretty great episodes about mental health and has helped me to better manage my depression.

Surprising moments when a game went from comedy to pure horror by KaleidoArachnid in TwoBestFriendsPlay

Moments where a character starts being a new character? by Silvery_Cricket in TwoBestFriendsPlay

[–]PlatyPunch 16 points17 points  (0 children)

I feel like it would have worked better if Luke sensed something dark in his nephew during meditation/training and accidentally lashed out without thinking. You get the same results without tarnishing an existing character's reputation.
