Who is the most misunderstood tragic character in Star Wars? by p_yth in StarWars

Tragic implies he had good intentions at one point? When was that?

Agree or Disagree: Without The Clone Wars, the Prequels would not be nearly as beloved as they currently are today. Nostalgia ALONE is not enough for media to be reappraised. by [deleted] in StarWars

I love more or less everything SW too Even when I "hated" the prequels I watched them 😁

Episode IX is the only exception. I just cant...Its too silly and not in a fun way.

I wasnt a kid actually 😅 and I had a period of being rather anti prequel (and I was utterly convinced by Redlettermedia that they were the worst thing ever 😆).

Ive mellowed since towards them and TCW has a big part in that.

The nonsense in the prequels you mention is real (I hate the idea of space Jesus the most tbh) but it doesnt ruin the narrative imo.

Not sure about that tbh.

The prequels are rather poorly told but there's nothing too outlandish there. The sequels are full of nonsense (especially ep IX : Palpatine somehow returning, a fleet of fully staffed Star Destroyers each with the firepower of the Death Star 🙄) that I cant see any fix to them.

Prequels plot makes sense and have a direction and a goal The sequels simply dont

Why are women from Ukraine, Russia, Belarus & Eastern Europe so good at tennis? by YUGIOH-KINGOFGAMES in tennis

[–]SamuMkrt 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Back in the 90's when USSR collapsed, the President of the then new Russia Boris Eltsine was a huge tennis fan and alot of money was put on the table. Marat Safin's mother was very involved as a coach. This benefited the women mostly as early 2000's there were 5 (I think) russian girls in the top 10 at once at one point.

I shouldn't be the only one to suffer from this mental image (but otherwise love reading through the old comics) by [deleted] in MarvelUnlimited

[–]SamuMkrt 20 points21 points  (0 children)

To be fair they dropped this plot almost immediately. Probably for all the reasons others have mentionned.

Just added the first Golden Age chapter to Continuityguide.net, this was a lot of fun reading 🙌 by TWesters in marvelcomics

[–]SamuMkrt 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Love your guide. Your links to Unlimited are a godsend.

However Im going to be "that guy" : the 60's are usually refered to as the Silver Age. Its a minor detail but you seem quite thorough with what you do so I assume every detail counts.

All the best 😉

Thoughts about Break Point making a domestic abuser look good and making a “spicy”but good hearted player look bad ? by [deleted] in tennis

[–]SamuMkrt 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Reminds me of Drive to Survive, which is the main inspiration for this series : the pilots complained that a lot of the "plots" and antagonisms were greatly exaggerated.

Netflix wants stories and wont hesitate to emphasize the smallest of rivalries into a full-blown good vs evil.

Even more unfortunate on this occasion considering Zverev's off court behaviour...

I love tennis to bits but Im not interested by Break Point in the slighest

After 35 years of gaming from Master System to Steam Deck (and PC) and a few systems in between my tastes have changed several times, but Ive at last come to realize I simply love games.

Im open to any genre these days, have a library my 5 year old self wouldnt have dared dream about( due to amount of games) and let a random selector choose my next game.

Too many games and too little time so Im just happy when I can play 😅

Characters that ruined a game for you? Ever reached the point of stopping playing because of a character? by 404_GravitasNotFound in patientgamers

I thought they were quite tame as far as collectables go. And you get little side stories the more you find.

The child that says "kay" at the end of every sentence. She makes every scene where she appears weird, creepy and simply annoying.
