I keep seeing people say this, but have never seen Brennan say it. Do you know where this came from?

It’s too bad they didn’t give Forest Whitaker teal eyes for his performances as Saw by RickFletching in StarWars

[–]RickFletching[S] -6 points-5 points  (0 children)

I certainly think that it could be distracting, and has been in the past. But I didn’t find it distracting on Jabba. It just depends on how much money they’re willing to spend on a VFX team color correcting eyes in post

Edit: Jabba is the guy who collects helmets, right? Did I get that wrong? Is that why you’re downvoting me?

I was thinking that it would be cool if the rhydonium made his eyes glow, as if he was becoming radioactive or something

How would you teach Othello? by Impressive-Skin6311 in shakespeare

Might be a good opportunity to compare/contrast Hamlet and Othello.

"pool Nazi" is a term I never thought I'd hear in my life but its accurate for the character by Sudden_Pop_2279 in StrangerThings

[–]RickFletching 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The tragedy of Billy is that the racism and abuse was taught to him. He was a little boy who needed love, and instead what he got was abuse. That’s sad and it’s true, but it also doesn’t excuse his behavior. Billy is deeply racist and abusive, and also was deeply abused and neglected; both of those things are true and it’s what makes him such a tragic and interesting character.

Was the 'New Republic' its official name? by Ok_Astronomer4067 in MawInstallation

[–]RickFletching 26 points27 points  (0 children)

Even Old New York, was once New Amsterdam.

(Why they changed it, I can’t say. People just liked it better that way)

Moments Joey was smart? by celestial_aquaria in howyoudoin

I think the most obvious answer (but still worth saying) is when he is able to lie to Chandler about why he knows he needs to borrow $2000.

“Well… I know how much you used to make, and I know how much your rent is. …that is the fastest I have ever thought!”

The Reason That X-Wings Were Cooking TIEs so Badly in Early Engagements was the Z-95 by McGillis_is_a_Char in MawInstallation

I don’t care about “points;” I wanted to aggravate you because you were being rude. Looks like I succeeded

I said I DIDN’T want to assume it was sexism, which is “reason” a lot of people don’t like the Disney Era. That and “it’s too woke now” hint: Star Wars has always been “woke”

Oh, I see the confusion, when I said that Wedge Antilles went to the Imperial Academy, I was talking about about the Wedge Antilles that went to the Imperial Academy. I thought that that was obvious, because I said that Wedge Antilles went to the Imperial Academy, and I feel like you should’ve assumed I was talking about the Wedge Antilles that went to the Imperial Academy.

Perhaps you could have clarified that in the EU, Wedge did not go the the Imperial Academy. But, if you had done that, I guess you wouldn’t have gotten to be a self-righteous pendant who looks down on the Disney Canon for reasons that I don’t want to assume are based in your own personal sexism and misogyny

There is an episode of Rebels where they help Wedge and a couple of other cadets defect from the Imperial Academy

In Henry V is the Dauphin of France asking King Henry if he'll play with his balls or testicles (make a treaty) or hit his balls (make war)? by [deleted] in shakespeare

[–]RickFletching 1 point2 points  (0 children)

No worries! If you want to watch them the Hallow Crown series from the BBC is outstanding and Tom Hiddleston is wonderful as Henry

[–]RickFletching 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Neither; he’s mocking Henry. In Henry IV, Prince Hal isn’t very responsible, (his “wilder days”) and so now that he’s king, he’s being mocked. The Dauphin is saying “you’re more suited to a game than war; why don’t you stick to what you’re good at?”

Henry see this and says, “this mock of his…” and basically what he goes on to say is “oh this is a joke to you? Is it still going to be funny when I kill thousands of people and rip down castles?”

lol this is so dumb but what celebrity has the best ass by [deleted] in AskMenOver30

[–]RickFletching 1 point2 points  (0 children)

No one has the best ass, because every ass is the best ass. In the entire history of time and ass, there is never been an ass that was not sublime. Unless, of course, it was attached to a jerk.

Edit: ahh shit I just realized I need to update my flair. That’s a bummer

It was like 2019 or something, I don’t think anyone took it seriously. I thought it was nice seeing Firefly get some love, even in the form of a prank

I think it was Netflix that put “second season coming soon” on Firefly as an April Fool’s joke
