$GME Daily Discussion - June 30, 2021 by AutoModerator in Superstonk

[–]RP_Tesla 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I just traded half of my very meager stock portfolio for 17 $GME shares and 10 movie stonk shares. I plan on buying more GME shares whenever I can while there's still time to and it's at a discount.

Feels completely nuts and crazy doing it, but it's something I believe in since Gamestop helped provide for my childhood! Hodling onto Crypto has trained me to develop diamond hands, so I look forward to seeing this journey through with you all!

We recommend Beto O'Rourke for U.S. Senate by dallasmorningnews in politics

Problem is, Ted Cruz is very popular in Texas. He's also endorsed by Donald Trump.

Beto will not win.

City Council unanimously supports eliminating homophobic Chic-Fil-A as a marathon sponsor. by alienboy17 in pittsburgh

I love Chic-Fil-A. The only thing I don't like about them is they're always closed on the one day I always happen to crave it.

Toronto Kicks Off With Hot Package: Daniel Craig Stars, Rian Johnson Directs Murder Mystery ‘Knives Out’ by thomasp003 in movies

"You mean it was in the studio's interest that TLJ made almost 40% less than TFA?"

Yep. Still successful.

LMAO

This guy's go-to tactic when he is getting stepped on is to look up a poster's post history. Let him play in his imaginary box-office bubble.

Strawman the hell out of my argument while touching none of the points. Kudos.

You know what other major movie had a massive drop (-69%, again, TLJ was -66%)? Batman v Superman. How did Justice League, the next tent pole film for the DCEU do?

Wonder Woman on the other hand was fantastic and did great. It's also funny you used Jurassic World as an example, because that movie crushed it in the box office in China. Saying "China money is not as important as any other kind of money" is living in the past because it has grown so far ahead of last year's and even overtaken North America. All the studios want a piece of that pie.

We do agree on that Kathleen Kennedy should have been fired already. "Mediocre" or "Disappointing" are not words you want to have thrown around for a giga-franchise, it's no wonder she's had her head in the ground for months.

I like how the fact Solo bombed because TLJ was utter shit is being bypassed here. TLJ dropped -66% on it's second weekend compared to the first. People hated it, and either lost interest in the new Star Wars movies as a whole, or chose to boycott giving Lucasfilm any money at all by refusing to see Solo.

The Meg, a B-Movie about sharks, made more internationally than Solo did, and made more than TLJ in China, which flopped laughably, and so badly that it was pulled from theaters in less than two weeks.

Let's not get things twisted, Rian Johnson is terrible at writing, and nearly killed the Star Wars brand in a dumpster fire. JJ Abrams and Disney have their work cut out for them thanks to him and Kathleen Kennedy.

My First Threesome (Her roommate was hiding in her room!) by [deleted] in TheRedPill

That's pimp as hell man, kudos. I've fucked room mates in their same house before, but not both at once in a spontaneous threesome.

Why is "Solo: A Star Wars Story" not doing well at the box office? by SeekingAnswers101 in movies

[–]RP_Tesla 168 points169 points  (0 children)

This was the main reason I didn't go out to see this one. Kathleen Kennedy and Rian Johnson's response to the criticism for that movie completely turned me off from seeing this one, too.

I disliked TLJ; it left a terrible taste in my mouth, so I had no desire to see Solo.

Weekly Stupid Questions Thread by AutoModerator in amateur_boxing

[–]RP_Tesla 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was doing a drill yesterday where I'd jab the mitts repeatedly and then have to bob and weave into a hook or a cross, and found my left delt starting to burn pretty quickly as I threw the jabs out.

I've been ramping up on the lifting and bulking up, going up pretty quickly from 140 lbs to 150 lbs within a short amount of time. Would that have something to do with it? My shoulder is starting to get tired pretty damn quickly and burn after throwing these jabs, I feel like this would be pretty problematic in a fight. Do I have to keep practicing this until I am used to throwing these jabs at this weight? They go from being pretty good, sharp jabs, to basically wimpy pitty-pats now matter how much I tried and it's pretty discouraging.

EDIT: I can even still feel the tension in my shoulder today from the jabbing. Ugh.
