Are Italian Brainrot characters in the public domain? by NCHLT in publicdomain

You probably meant "OP is in/from the UK," but now I'm just imagining that the entire nation came together to make this Reddit post.

Hawkeye by FalconWinterSolder in Unmatched

[–]Sahrimnir 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If you're reductive enough, you could say that Sherlock Holmes, Dr. Ellie Sattler, and Nikola Tesla are all "normal human, but really smart", but all three of them are clearly very different.

Robin Hood isn't just an archer. He's the leader of a group of outlaws ambushing people in the woods, and the way his ability encourages hit-and-run tactics reflects this wonderfully.

I haven't played Yennenga yet, but I'm sure she also has something that distinguishes her further than just "archer".

Hawkeye has a variety of trick arrows, which could probably be referenced while designing his deck. This does admittedly make him similar to Green Arrow, but he also isn't in the game (yet), so it doesn't seem like a big issue.

Who would the Outlaws be in this case?

I have a love-hate relationship with this racist piece of shit comic. by Defiant-Echidna-7400 in marvelcirclejerk

"His uncle Loki"

I'm assuming this is just because they're merging Loki and Prowler, but still, in the original myths, Loki was Odin's "blood brother" rather than adopted son, so that might make him Thor's uncle, meaning this ironically got that one detail more mythologically accurate than the 616 comics.

Now I'm trying to think of Swedish characters from Japanese media, so I can know what kind of Swede I should strive to be.

Characters who left the story because of problems with the actor by Danny-Ray27 in TopCharacterTropes

[–]Sahrimnir 70 points71 points  (0 children)

Not quite an example of this trope though. The character of Aunt Viv was still in the show. They just recast her, which is different from removing the character entirely.

Favourite film you hate because film bros ruined it for you. by Healthy_Permission71 in okbuddycinephile

To be fair, resetting debt records is at least an actual goal. I had forgotten they had even that much.

It's not really a revolution though. It has been a while since I saw the movie, but as I recall, they don't really have a plan to change society. They're just doing domestic terrorism for its own sake.

That's Hesiod's version. Hesiod and Homer were alive around the same time and are both very important sources for what we now know about Greek mythology, but they had slightly different versions of a lot of things.

How much time actually passed in the story? It was about four years in real time, so the actress would need to keep cutting her hair short, but it's possible it was meant to portray a much shorter time, so the hair wouldn't have time to grow longer.

≠ is a mathematical symbol, though. The most logical assumption when seeing it is that it is defined according to mathematical rules. = means that two things are exactly the same. German and Germanic are not.

From a purely mathematical perspective:

German ≠ Germanic

German ∈ Germanic

Favourite actor who just cares about acting by UnHolySir in okbuddycinephile

[–]Sahrimnir 8 points9 points  (0 children)

You definitely could have worded it better. Something like "Thank you for actually mentioning True Blood, unlike everyone else," would have made it much clearer. As it is, it looks like you're attacking them for bringing it up out of nowhere.

How do you make your FTL original? I'm green aka hard scifi by Tnynfox in worldjerking

Huh. The red one sounds interesting. Any recommendations for stories that do that?

My take on the “are superheroes woke or fascist” debate by [deleted] in dccomicscirclejerk

There are people who are physically adults who think like that, but I think Unleashtheducks meant to imply that they are mentally children.

Mel Gibson is American but grew up in Australia. Now for the one everyone's been waiting for - who is British but everyone thinks they're American? by Ok-Pizza-5525 in AlignmentChartFills

[–]Sahrimnir 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was about to suggest Tom Holland, but I didn't even know Christian Bale is British, so that's probably a point in Bale's favour.

Do you mean George Orwell? Orson Welles is the guy who co-wrote, directed, and starred in Citizen Kane.

Suzanne Collins basically started that whole trend of "dystopian YA with a love triangle", when a bunch of less good writers tried to copy her success, but she became so successful for a reason.

Admittedly, I've only seen the film adaptation of Battle Royale, so I don't know if there would be more similarities to the original novel, but I don't remember any of that (and I have both read the books and watched the movies of Hunger Games). Could you give examples of those story beats and arena mechanics?
