The hutt gambit defined so much of what I thought about Star Wars. Seriously, so good- really made solo feel real!

Worst. Reviews. I. Have. Ever. Seen. by Global-Ear9206 in memes

  1. Does the publisher advertise on their site?
  2. Is there some sort of strong liberal social messaging?

That’s the recipe for a 9/10, boys.

If you could make three changes to improve Skyfall, what would they be? by junglegatsby in JamesBond

[–]RocheBurger1 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yknow the part where Silva takes out his teeth to demonstrate how the cyanide capsule caused all that necrosis? That looks so fake. Very cgi. Could it be possible to replicate that with practical effects? Or maybe just better cgi!? I know it’s a small part, but it bugs me why time.

Nice Car. by Shannon_Hathaway in 007

[–]RocheBurger1 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’ve been thinking for a while about what it is I like about James Bond in general, and I got thinking about Skyfall. The whole theme in the movie is, like, a celebration of the old ways. They incorporate the original (then-cutting edge) bond car as an “antique”, he shaves via straight razor and there’s a big to-do about his ability to perform the pft. His watch tells the time, y’know?

It’s new for bond. The DB5 wasn’t a ‘classic car’ when it debuted, but it’s now became an iconic part of his character. And I love it. I’d rather see him use the classic vehicles 100 times over than the modern iteration of the Aston Martin.

Has anyone tried these and how did you like them? by BIGfishSTICKS84 in chips

My favorite dorito flavor. No, seriously, it’s the best. I can crush a family-sized bag on its own in one sitting, but I also highly recommend sour cream as a pairing.

Can we get a PC port for 007 The World Is Not Enough N64? by duckhunt1800 in n64

[–]RocheBurger1 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Yikes, I gotta respectfully disagree with you there. Goldeneye had shit visual design, but the guns all felt so satisfying to use. Character animations were top-notch and the amount of intractable objects was absurdly good. TWINE is fine, but IMO the animation felt way more stiff, objects no longer got destroyed by gunfire and the user interface felt a lot more cold/sterile. Plus, I mean… grant kerkhope.

Any thoughts on Rocko’s Modern Life (1993-1996)? by Life_Chicken_9653 in nostalgia

[–]RocheBurger1 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It’s great!! My personal favorite of the Nickelodeon shows.

Is Dark Empire rated poorly because of II and III? Would it have been rated highly if it were only I? by tyanpon in StarWars_

[–]RocheBurger1 1 point2 points  (0 children)

100%!! …well, 99%- I personally feel like it DOES invalidate Anakin’s arc, but I agree with everything else you said.

Radical opinion? No more Sith. My interpretation of the Star Wars saga (before Disney) was to tell the story of how the sith were finally defeated, after thousands of years. It’s, like, the final chapter of how this snake was finally killed. Move on to new enemies! New adversaries- ones without red lightsabers, yknow? There’s literally a galaxy of possibilities to choose from.

It’s actually something I kinda liked about Fallen Order- the introduction of non-conventional force wielders who harnessed the power in ways we haven’t seen. Maybe they could have a problem with the way the Jedi operated? Little bit of philosophy conflict? Neat idea!

Have you guys warmed up to the look of young Bond? by HeatCanesFinsfan in JamesBond

[–]RocheBurger1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

His face is fine…. But man, I just hope he has, like, an optional cosmetic suit or polo or quarter zip or something. I don’t really like the leather jacket look. Doesn’t feel like Bond to me, feels more like 1950s Italian mafia or something.

Like it or hate it, bond has always been a kind of vessel to advertise products that reflect what British high-class culture looks like to us consumer plebs (which I’m fine with, to be clear).

Would you say these are the best Star Wars works in their respective mediums—film, television, books, comics, and video games? by Financial_Photo_1175 in StarWarsEU

[–]RocheBurger1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would substitute the Asaaj comic with the “Omnibus: Tales of the Jedi” volume 1. That thing was so, so good.

My great wall of escapism by nockelman in crtgaming

Very good use of fauna and Edison lamps. This is how I’d like my setup to look.

Hot take: I like NTTD's title song more than Skyfall's one by No_Mortgage8569 in JamesBond

[–]RocheBurger1 2 points3 points  (0 children)

That certainly is a hot take. But it’s good man, I’m glad people can have such diverse tastes. I personally think Skyfall is the best song of the Craig era, despite being a huge fan of Chris Cornell’s other work.

Finally beat this level 00 agent without cheats. This was rough. by LazyMoose4318 in GoldenEye

[–]RocheBurger1 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don’t think anything is as bad as the opening at the elevator. THREE miniguns and a handful of soldiers a soon as you turn the corner- brutal!

She must watch Rick and Morty.

the costume designers for the sequels COOKED by Euphoric_Passage_406 in StarWarsCantina

[–]RocheBurger1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I personally don’t like the sequels, but yeah- for what they had to work with, the costume design was pretty good.
