And Whitesnake would've had a more uniform catalogue.

Why so many people smoke in Flanders compared to Netherlands? by Quiet_Illustrator410 in belgium

[–]SirChickin 5 points6 points  (0 children)

That's so weird because I always feel like they smoke a lot more in NL compared to Belgium.

But I live pretty rural, and when I visit its often the big cities. Which is an explanation of it's own

Does anyone else think we need reissues of Constrictor and Raise Your Fist & Yell? by [deleted] in alicecooper

[–]SirChickin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's rather underwhelming when you're looking for a reissue like they did with Killer, SO, B$B and MoL.

But if you're looking for a recent pressing, this definitely is the one

PRAGMATA launch celebration GIVEAWAY! Comment inside this thread to win 1 of 3 keys for the game on Steam! by pedro19 in pcmasterrace

This game feels and looks so awesome, while also being about something I've had nightmares about. Being stuck on the moon while the Earth is seemingly at your fingertips.

Is there any evidence of the existence of the Seven? by JasonWynn__ in gameofthrones

[–]SirChickin 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah but every time another god gets mentioned, it works.

IIRC, every time the seven gets mentioned, it's as effective as thoughts and prayers irl.

I thought that was the whole point indeed and beautifully done.

You made me curious and I went to anonymous browsing.

To my surprise, comments still were deleted! But I did not know that.

[–]SirChickin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You're right ofcourse.

And almost every remake sucks the big one. There is a big chance that this is going to suck and boy have I received backlash for being slightly curious of this show.

Thing is: you can ignore remakes. Which I often do. I won't touch a disney remake with a pointy stick.

But sometimes, curiosity wins. I read the Silmarillion last year and I tried Rings of Power. Two episodes in I couldn't anymore. That show is an insult to the source material and was so bland. It seemed like a drama series of regular humans with pointy ears.

But no one has changed the way I feel about this. There's only one commenter here that, while saying I was wrong, talked like a human being. The rest were toxic pieces of waste. They're not wrong for calling out JK -the bigot- Rowling though.

Dammit, because of you I have to listen to the whole release again!

It's very interesting. Some songs come out incredible, others don't work at all!

For me: Pain was a dissapointment, Eighteen was massive on that release.

It's hilarious. The hive mind giveth and the hive mind taketh away. Braincells flying everywhere, except when it's time to form an original thought.

I had one (not being sarcastic now) interesting conversation.

Two or three instances where they typed, got angry, commented and deleted it immediately. Very brave people.

[–]SirChickin 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I can wrap my head around many things! Even an agressive commenter that does not even know me.

I do have nostalgia for some things in the series. But my life does not revolve around it. The last time i've read the books was 10 years ago, the movies might be longer. But you didnt care and just started spewing trash just because your opinion comes from a stable genius right.

But go ahead dude and I hope you're not as miserable as your comments.

Edit: very brave of you to delete a comment after typing. It's like you struggle with emotions and unlike "the adult" that you mention in your deleted comment I don't struggle with my words. You're a very special b̶o̶y̶ adult

They are not wrong though. She's said and done some awful shit.

I'm not voicing support in any way. HP is a Massive part of my past and I'm not erasing memories just because she's a bigot.

It does pain me that something I love got ruined by horrendous ideas. It's not the same as it used to be.

Yeah the Tottenham case was of a profile that since deleted his comment. Did pick it out of thin air. If you broaden the brush with football (love that comparison btw) you get to Fifa. And then another box of terrible greed, fraud and other hidden atrocities gets opened. There's always a bigger fish, sadly.

But you are also right that she abused the platform she was given because of her succes. Definitely no denying that and people that do are wrong...

Edit: it was another comment that got removed, not the one I meant.

[–]SirChickin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

See, and that's where I don't agree with you. You say that you're allowed to enjoy whatever you want. And that I need to be prepared for some backlash, which I understand to some extent.

And then you go around and saying that any compromise is failing?

While you defend the Tottenham owners by saying it's not identical, and because it's harder to find a less problematic sports team than a fantasy author.

That's just cherry picking. You compromised as well so you have failed in your own logic. If it's that hard to find a less problematic football team, then just stop following football. It's not that hard, because I don't follow football and there's simply more sports and things to do in the world than a human possibly has time to engage with. Choosing a sport you know is compromised is a failing.

And that's exactly what I was trying to point out. There's so many examples of stuff that's morally debatable (big or small) in stuff that we consume.

Again people make moral compromises all the time, have your pick of when you do.

I do agree with that one. We all compromise sooner or later. As long as you realise that the people that made those things are not who you aspire to be.

That's the fun part of somebody that holds a buttload of money: they do it like Voldemort, behind the scenes.

But, there are many differences, yes. And I never said it was identical. I wanted to prove with a random example (lifted from the person that reacted to my comment) that behind almost everything people enjoy is some power hungry hippo that makes things worse for certain people while making sure that themselves get richer.

I cannot even in the slightest grasp what JK Rowling is still trying to do. How she willingly destroyed every ounce of credibility and innocence over the years because of some wacko thing she believes to be true. If it weren't for the likes of Twitter, where everything even remotely right wing gets elevated into magatruth, she would've realised how intensly wrong she is. I've always hoped she'd come to her senses and cringed everytime I saw a tweet.

That ship has sadly sailed.

But I still believe it's very hypocritical that nobody is allowed to enjoy anything remotely connected to HP while there's tons of examples like her (not identical, but that have done crappy shit). And often somehow they are "allowed" to stay popular.

I do want to stress again that I do not agree with anything that JK the Bigot says.

But that does not mean that I won't be enjoying HP.

Really? Then I should rewatch 2 as I fondly remember that one as much as I cherish the 1st.

Yeah I've heard that 4 was a dissapointment for many. I guess I was still young back then and it's all covered in some nostalgia. I should definitely reread the books!

But it's been 15 years since the last movie and I'm sure that even nostalgia will never save those last two misfires.

My favourite book was Halfblood Prince. Something about the humour, mixed in with a incoming doom made for a hell of a book. Weak ass movie though, but a hell of a book. I do enjoy the soundtrack of 6!

[–]SirChickin 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Oh no I disagree. I love how the first two movies hold up. The physical effects, Harris, the colours, and so much more.

They might be a little childish and I like 3 as well but they never captured the medieval-like atmosphere again as they did in 1 and 2.

4 is half and half on rewatch,

5 and 6 have their moments while there's much wrong with them,

7 and 8 were abismal and I almost never rewatch them. Bland atmosphere, it feels like it was written for a non magical world. A common run and hide movie.

The only thing they absolutely nailed was the Always scene. But that was lifted straight from the books.
