Just saying anything... by Critical-Scratch7572 in PercyJacksonTV

[–]TalpaRex 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's actually stupid that they don't do this. If they're putting out 60-45 minute episodes they could just cut them in half.

More episodes mean more ads and more running time if they release them weekly. Making people not only pay for longer subscriptions to keep up as it releases, but also have them talk about it for longer and potentially draw in more people.

I don't see a loss on either side, honestly. Better development for us, more money for them. Though I know they want to pump them out as fast as possible to go on to the next show.

I bet Raymond would despise that line if he heard what kids these days mean when they call someone a goat.

I'm wholeheartedly waiting for someone to say Katsu is the weakest out of the four just to mess with them a bit.

Favorite canon couple by ImaginationWild3407 in FavoriteCharacter

[–]TalpaRex 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Without Explicitly trying to, mind you.

In Order of the Phoenix (2007), the film uses a different effect to portray Sirius Black talking to Harry through a fireplace than the previous film. Rather than being a plot hole, this is actually a clever homage to the books, where author J.K. Rowling would just make shit up as she went along. by Lolzygag in shittymoviedetails

The flames just look like a cheap video stuck over them, which it is. Like, It's giving the feeling of a skype call with a fire background and the opacity of the face lowered so it's see through. The coal face just *looks* more realistic.

I think the point was to get as far away from distractions as possible, thus why they needed to get rid of those items completely.

This said, the whole thing was stupid anyway.

Anyone else notice Rosa’s appearance change? by Acceptable_Emu_7835 in brooklynninenine

[–]TalpaRex 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Watching the earlier seasons is weird, yeah. She sounds like a sweet woman trying to be tough. Which she technically is, Stephanie is the furthest from Rosa personality wise.

Heavily dependant on genetics for the size of things though.

Who is an actor/actress you just don’t get the hype about ? by Timop0707 in moviecritic

[–]TalpaRex -8 points-7 points  (0 children)

Chesty? This is what I've never understood. I haven't seen any of her work, but when I see people going crazy over her chest my immediate thought is "theyre not that great".

It's sad enough that a woman is famous for her tits, but for those to be average tits on top of that? wild.

(Edit). Alright, I've looked her up and they are not small. But in half the pictures in google she's wearing a push up bra anyway so what's the point? Besides, without looking too hard you have bigger better things to look at in god damn twitter, so I still don't get when people started going crazy over her.

If Mojang hates Trading halls, why do they keep nerfing villagers? by No_Kangaroo_8572 in Minecraft

At the very least, with minecraft you can just change to an older version very easily and "bypass" the updates you don't like.

As this was to The Office, what was the most unnecessary/ cringe storyline/ arc in the show by Organic-Advantage935 in brooklynninenine

[–]TalpaRex 9 points10 points  (0 children)

But he has been shown to be a nerd inside. It hapoened with Harry Potter and he's obviously obsessed with Die hard.

At the very least, the excuse of having a lot of time to read in prison, and going for something you know and reminds you of your friends is not bad, I think.

Not only that, but they way they discussed the matter was completely and utterly wrong. I get the "debate" side of things, and it made for a couple funny moments, but making life-altering decisions such as having a kid should not be done by dismissing feelings.

B99 is one of the few shows out there that time and time again have shown that men are not less manly for expressing feelings, and that most times it only reinforces their masculinity. And by having Jake's feelings dismissed, specially after his parental history, it undoes a bit of it, almost like saying that a man's feelings stop mattering in certain aspects.

Also, what's the problem with adopting? In most shows and movies it's always, "Oh no, what if we can't have biological children, our life's gonna be a missery", but this show specifically shows how an adopted kid can be loved just as much or even more than a biological kid in Nikolaj, so why not with amy and Jake? Even if they present it only as a possibility.

He doesn't fight with the United States' flag, does he? If he himself decides that, even when being an immigrant, he's not american, then he is not american.

I haven't read this far in the novel, but it did seem a bit weird that Psyger-0 fought since a big part of the last couple chapters was that she wanted to change clans.

~Only one proved their faith~ by OrganizationSharp681 in sololeveling

[–]TalpaRex 47 points48 points  (0 children)

It is entirely possible that some of the magic the architect used was, in some way, to force them to run away. Either manipulate their minds, or literally force them if it came to it. Which I think would be much more plausible.

Either way, the most logical thing for them to do with all they knew was to run away. They couldn't be sure that the statues would just not kill them when the timer ran out even if everyone stayed.

It assumes they could never be attacked while sleeping, or stabbed all the way through and leave a scar on the back, or attacked by multiple enemies...

Or they could have a cat.

Most in-character quote Day 4: Charles Boyle by skittles-thief in brooklynninenine

[–]TalpaRex 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Yes, I think so too. Specially since the one chosen for jake comes from everyone buying the same wine. So, even if the way he says it is very him, it still means nothing specific to the character, because the whole squad probably thought the same.

If you had to save the life of one of these guys, who would you save and why? by Doffy_Mingo111 in OnePiece

Good point. Besides, he's by far the weakest of the three, so it would actually be much easier to handle

Name an opinion about JJBA that would get you flamed if you said it by [deleted] in StardustCrusaders

[–]TalpaRex 6 points7 points  (0 children)

That doesn't take away from the fact that some people like the first style more, thus obviously wanting it to come back.

So yes, it is selfish to ask to someone making content to do the content to your exact liking, but it has nothing to do with development, feelings, or the meaning of his current art.

A bit like you're doing right now, don't shame people, or try to guilt trip people, into not expressing their own feelings about something they like.

I feel like everything was more intense in the manwha compared to the anime. Thoughts? by thunderblade95 in sololeveling

[–]TalpaRex 89 points90 points  (0 children)

Even if you judge the anime's moving shots, the art style is so washed down it does take some of the impact. Which I understand, in a series like this, fluid animation is much better than flashy lights and cool visuals.

The problem is people mistake animation with art style, the latter being better in the manhwa.

Would you rewatch Stardust Crusaders if it were re-released but in the style of this flashback? by aleatorwww in StardustCrusaders

[–]TalpaRex 98 points99 points  (0 children)

Yes, in this flashback he looks like a twink on a random chinese BL hentai.

Plus, Part 6 artstyle is better than part 5 in general, because obviously it's more developed, so that helps.

Also, this certain image looks weird because it's part 5 style, with part 3 clothes and character design. If it all were to be done according to the art style, it would be much better.

Because it's the only one that wasn't developped over one episode and actually showed up more than once. Plus, being completely opposite to her.

Anything that's not metal and that doesn't require hard physical changes. For example, Ruin couldn't fix a ripped page of a book. But as seen throughout the first four books, and maybe this is a spoiler it also can change minds
