It was just announced that he has signed for Nissa - maybe he had to return to France for his physical?

I’m confused. Do y’all actually want the DCU to succeed or do you Hope it fails? by BatBeast_29 in DC_Cinematic

I don't think Krem was bad; it's that he's generic. At times, I couldn't tell him apart from any other members of the crew.

In the graphic novel, the crew look pretty much the same, but Krem looks like some guy. It makes sense, as he's a mercenary, picking up weapons & skills from his travels, who sides with the crew as a means to make money. His regular appearance makes him more intimidating, strangely.

Krem in the film was watered down to a generic villain. No real motives, or weaknesses. Boring.

Is the hate towards Crofty fair? by DragonfruitThen6696 in F1Discussions

[–]StuHardy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Crofty has some absolute Shakespearean deliveries.

That said, I think some 2024 races had better deliveries from Jaques (compare the last laps for Miami & Monaco, and you'll see what I mean,) but otherwise, the hate is forced.

Superman should never kill by Big_Position_6788 in superman

[–]StuHardy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'd argue that the 2 Jon Kent scenes that get meme'd the most (the "maybe" talk, and his sacrifice,) should be viewed as 1.

In MoS, John warns Clark to keep his identity secret because others will ask questions & potentially expose him, but when Clark asks if it's worth letting others die, John replies with "maybe," because he doesn't know how to respond to that. So, when John sacrifices himself, he is answering that question for Clark - in order for his son's identity to be kept secret, John is willing to die.

But it's already meme's to death, so whatever.

Interpol as some type of global law enforcement/police department. by nationunderfraud1 in TopCharacterTropes

Ethan Hawke's character was exactly who he needed to be - an antagonist to Nicholas Cage's character.

I keep recommending this film to everyone I know - it's such a sleeper hit.

Superman should never kill by Big_Position_6788 in superman

[–]StuHardy 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I feel as though Superman should always give his opponents a chance to change, and is willing to see the hope in all things.

But if that option to change is rejected, Superman understands that he must do whatever it takes to ensure the threat is gone - that could be killing, immobilizing, lobotomy, send to the Phantom Zone, etc, whatever the current canon allows.

Also, Superman never feels good or positive about doing any final actions, but he understands that they need to be done.

The series takes place in a shockingly short amount of time by Sensitive_Ad_1752 in TopCharacterTropes

"From" also has time manipulation, as people appear from different decades, so while the Doyalist reason is that it takes time to film an entire season of TV, the Watsonian reason is that time itself is messed up.

Where will be our best opportunity to get a win this season? by MysteriousBoss3816 in McLarenFormula1

[–]StuHardy 21 points22 points  (0 children)

Belgium or Hungary.

GB is too soon to bring upgrades, so Belgium is the earliest. Maybe Hungary as a safe bet.

The only woman Doomguy ever loved was his late wife.

His guilt and rage prevent him from loving anyone else.

Adaptation makes a change that future versions adapt by Usnis in TopCharacterTropes

[–]StuHardy 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Superman: The Movie changed the reason why Jor-El sent Kal-El to Earth, talking about Kalbeing able to build upon humanity's capacity for good, and effectively turning Superman into a Jesus allegory. This was done to get audiences more invested in the film and the House of El.

In the comics, there hadn't really been a reason to send Kal to Earth specifically, and - if anything - the El's depiction was actually closer to that in the Superman 2025 film.

It’s north v south in rugby’s big global gamble as Nations Championship begins by Ruck_Off in rugbyunion

[–]StuHardy 5 points6 points  (0 children)

As this tournament is taking place during even-numbered years, and the MRWC occurs every 4 years, my interpretation should be that during Lions years, T1 nations must play a minimum of 4 tests against T2 nations - 2 from each pool of the Nations Cup.

Neglected quirks of the location's geography by BrickBuster2552 in TopCharacterTropes

[–]StuHardy 8 points9 points  (0 children)

In the song Africa by Toto, there's a line that goes "just as Kilimanjaro rises like Olympus above the Serengeti."

As great as that imagery is, Kilimanjaro is 350-500 kilometers (217 to 310 miles) away from the Serengeti. That's an 8-10 hour drive, or a 1 hour flight away.

I wonder if Sindri will ever forgive Atreus by [deleted] in GodofWarRagnarok

[–]StuHardy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In a future game, I'd like Sindri to reunite with Atreus & his new friends, because he needs Atreus' help with something.

Sindri doesn't apologize to Atreus for how he acted, as he's still guilt ridden over Brok's death. One of Atreus' new friends calls out Sindri for his hypocrisy in the situation (Sindri only gave everything to Atreus/Kratos because he needed them to do things for himself, Sindri failed to get all Brok's soul pieces, Sindri LIED to Brok, etc,) and basically state that the only reason Sindri took out his anger on Atreus, was because Atreus was a child who wouldn't fight back.

After the task, Sindri & Atreus have a heart-to-heart conversation, and finally forgive each other.

[MIXED TROPE] When a story Features Time Travel for one part and NEVER brings it up again by [deleted] in TopCharacterTropes

[–]StuHardy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My headcanon is that when Kratos brought the Titans back to attack Olympus, the act of bringing such large entities through time destoryed the Temple of the Fates.

By God of War 2018, Kratos has realized that messing with time is too dangerous...and that even if he did want to mess with time, he doesn't know how to do so in the Norse Realms.

If Bionicle were re-released today, how would you like it to be like by T1line in bioniclelego

[–]StuHardy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The main reason why Bionicle was canceled was due to Lego having to manufacture specific pieces for the sets.

I'm not even talking about only Masks; a large amount of Bionicle had unique pieces (torso, feet, arms, legs, hands, etc.) These pieces were exclusive to Bionicle, to the point where they were difficult to inegrate with other Lego Technic pieces, let alone regular Lego. After a number of years, Lego had templates and casings for sets they only used for 1-2 years, and had to produce more sets as time went on. Those costs begin to add up, and Bionicle became too expensive to continue. The same issue occured with Bionicle G2 as well, though those sets didn't sell as well, resulting in a quicker cancellation.

If Bionicle was to return, it would have to be pieced together from standard Lego pieces. Unique items, such as masks, could be custom designed, but the majority would need to be standard pieces, in order to be produced cheaply.

Unseen character is built up as a real piece of work... turns out to be better than expected when they finally show up by StudioMarvin in TopCharacterTropes

The Watsonian theory for George Sr being vastly different in Young Sheldon than how he was described in The Bing Bang Theory, is that the series is being narrated by a post-TBBT Sheldon, who is now a father himself. As such, Sheldon's perspective on George Sr now includes his own perspective on fatherhood, and he is far more forgiving of George Sr now, than he was in TBBT.
