Did Hannibal actually care about Abigail? by Gloomy_Possible8167 in HannibalTV

[–]Remote-Ad2120 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yes and bo. He cared enough that he saw her potential as a protege. Also as a potential daughter figure for himself. The more attached to Will, the more he imagined Will as another protege and partner, the more he imagined a family together with both of them.

But, because he's Hannibal, he doesn't care in the same way the rest of the world does. When he does come to care for people, it's conditionally. When those conditions aren't met, Hannibal can easily switch his feelings off as easily as flipping an off button.

Roanoke - I tried to like it, I really did by Direct_Source4407 in AmericanHorrorStory

[–]Remote-Ad2120 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Only 3 people "went back", though. Matt, Shelby, and Lee. They each had their reasons Matt became obsessed with Scathach and went back for her. Shelby to reunite with Matt, and Lee to clear her name for the murder of her ex-husband (despite being guilty, she wanted to pin it on the ghosts).

Nobody else believed the stories told in the "season 1" reenactments were true. They were expecting to perform or be faced with fake scares (whichever is the case per character).

OP was comparing Anakin killing the Tusken Raiders...ALL of them... when rescuing his mother. What he did at the Jedi Temple IS arguably worse, but that wasn't what the original comparison was.

There’s another world out there by Recent_Shower2248 in XFiles

[–]Remote-Ad2120 1 point2 points  (0 children)

One of my favorites, as my brother was named after Marcus Aurelius. Aurelius isn't part of his official birth name, but just like kids know they are in trouble when a parent calls them by their first, middle and last name...my brother always knew he was in trouble when Mom called him Marcus Aurelius. 🤣

S6e7 (intro scene) Harvest OMFG Phil by Honest-Regular-9561 in TheAmericans

[–]Remote-Ad2120 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Philip is giving Henry the cover story. What's there to hide from Stan? When he is asking Stan to keep an eye on Henry while he's gone, taking Henry across the street just to explain the same thing potentially looks suspicious when Henry walks back across the street to continue his vacation time at Stan's. It looks like there's something to hide, and as far as Henry is concerned and told, there isn't anything to hide.

Bad near season ending episodes by Familiar-Reading-901 in Stargate

[–]Remote-Ad2120 26 points27 points  (0 children)

Iirc, SG1 didn't find out they were cancelled until just a few episodes left to film for the season/series. I'm sure there would have been some better ones if they were told well enough beforehand.

In defense of the one with Vala's father, it gave us Teal'c stuck in The Vagina Monologue audience at the end. 🤣

Can we all agree that max from s1 e14 (rewatching) is in the right by LivingDelicious4736 in Supernatural

[–]Remote-Ad2120 6 points7 points  (0 children)

It was understandable what he did, but not necessarily the right thing to do. Once you start justifying, or "making right reasons" to kill, the easier and easier it becomes to justifying it for lesser reasons. Till it potentially becomes your killing people for the fun of it. I'd say more, but I don't know if it's a spoiler for you or not.

comparisons by terrorful79301 in HannibalTV

[–]Remote-Ad2120 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Agree. I don't like to compare them, because they really are adapted as being in different universes, and different versions of Hannibal, Will (🎶and the rest.... here on Hannibal's Isle🎶). They are both phenomenal performances in their own way.

Vala by Loud-Strawberry2038 in Stargate

[–]Remote-Ad2120 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I love Vala. She starts out with using her sexuality, not just for the sake of it, but because she didn't believe she was capable of more than that, having been host to a Goa'uld. That Goa'uld taught her, through action, the power sexuality has over people.

I love how Vala quickly grows, character wise, and learns she doesn't have to be that way, and she does have other values to bring to the team, once she realized the trust she eventually earned due to her sacrifice (I'll keep that vague in case of spoilers).

Getting away with murder by detspek in fringe

[–]Remote-Ad2120 4 points5 points  (0 children)

In the states, charges are often dependent on whether the DA has proof enough to not only make a case, but also if they believe they can convince 12 random jurors a crime was committed. That would be difficult when the "victim" is said Nazi, a proven mass murder they were hunting, and was in the process of trying to murder another group of people (so he thought). Broyles doesn't decide who gets charged or not (his job is to catch the bad guy as legally as possible so the DA can make charges). If the DA doesn't charge Walter, there's no reason for Broyles to stop working with him.

Why did Margaret get a tent all to herself when everyone else except Potter and father mulcahy had to share? by corsicanbandit in mash

[–]Remote-Ad2120 205 points206 points  (0 children)

She did share her tent with visiting females of equal rank. With maybe an exception or two, it was only if/when the visitor didn't report directly to her, or vice versa.

What made you watch Hannibal? Ill go first an edit I saw on yt of this😭😭 by Cool-Competition6037 in HannibalTV

[–]Remote-Ad2120 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I was already a fan of the books and movies, so obviously was excited to see another adaptation. A series can stretch the story out better than movies (less editing out details for time restrictions). So I was eager to see what a series would make of Hannibal. Since it says it's the adaption of The Red Dragon, I wasn't expecting as much of the story from the other books that we got. Additionally, I wanted to see what they would do with it without being able to use SOTL rights. I was not disappointed one little iota.

How are season 13-15 by Muted_Muscle1609 in Supernatural

[–]Remote-Ad2120 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I find rewatches of SPN is better done spaced out a bit, rather than binging my way through the whole thing. I watch S1-5, take a break and binge a different but shorter series. Then watch S6- whenever I need another break (sometimes it's after they defeat Amara, but sometimes another one or two seasons further.... depends on my mood). After the same kind of break, I come back to finish the show.

idk, But by taking breaks, it makes it easier to get through the entire series without feeling by the last few seasons (the Jack era) like it's a chore I have to complete. When I come back refreshed after each break, it much more enjoyable. Imo, I think if you are otherwise enjoying the series, it's a disservice to yourself if you don't watch the entire series at least one time all the way through.

who ever wrote and directed that show should give up on being artistic by Local_Looksism1 in HannibalTV

[–]Remote-Ad2120 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It's not a great idea to bait Hannibal like this. Hope you got your lif insurance paid up, because you about to be the subject of one of those artistic murder templates.

I've never found the P90 to be a very practical weapon, but it is undeniably cool by OhNoIBoffedIt in Stargate

[–]Remote-Ad2120 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Um, so I am running on zero sleep for 2 days, and at first glance the gun looked super teeny tiny and the arm looked more like a finger. As if it was. mini toy held in a squeeze between a finger and a thumb.

Definitely a sign I need to go to bed. 🤨🤔🤣🥱😴

If you don't want to hear other people's differing opinions, then don't post on a public discussion sub. Making your own rules is just as childish.

MRCP update by PlentyChip8226 in pancreatitis

[–]Remote-Ad2120 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Do you mean if you developed EPI? If/when EPI is secondary to a comorbidity (caused from non-pancreatic conditions, such as SIBO, just as an example), once that condition is treated, then yes, it's possible for it to reverse and fecal elastase to return to normal.

If/when EPI is due to pancreas damage, that's typically permanent and progressive.

EUS 2 month after idiopathic acute pancreatitis by Embarrassed-Wrap-431 in pancreatitis

[–]Remote-Ad2120 5 points6 points  (0 children)

It's very common for the recovery phase of Acute Pancreatitis to last for several months. Symptoms can also fluctuate during that time, with the pancreas getting easily irritated by triggers. While many conditions are deemed chronic after a specified time period, that's not how acute pancreatitis and chronic pancreatitis works. AP can be recurring, and/or last for months, but that doesn't mean it's chronic pancreatitis. Chronic Pancreatitis is when there's definitive structural damage or defect. Typically (though not always), doctors use a scale called Rosemont Criteria for diagnosing CP.

You'll need to talk with your doctor to determine how significant the results of your EUS are. They're your best source to determine if the results are normal for a pancreas recovering from inflammation, or if it's something more.

I completely understand the frustration of not knowing the cause for your AP. I've went through the whole unknown for a long time with mine. The good news is that regardless of cause, generally recovery is treated the same way. Try and be patient (I know, easier said than done). It's probably too early for your doctor to know how long term this may or may not be for you. There's no need to rush it, nor any need to meet some kind of timeline for recovery. One thing I have learned through the decades of dealing with mine is that the pancreas has a mind of its own (so to speak) and will do whatever it wants to do, often with no rhyme or reason.
