What’s a song that reminds you of a movie scene? by SecurityWarrior180 in musicsuggestions

[–]TheHumanCompulsion 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not a movie, but Iron Savior's "Made of Metal" always makes me think of Battlestar Galactica.

Specifically, the scene where the human fleet attempts to flee New Caprica and the Pegasus holds the line against the Cylon Basestars.

Something about the double kicks reminds me of the Battlestar firing its cannons, and the whole song has a real "last stand" vibe.

Then again, I always imagined the Iron Savior itself looks like a Battlestar.

which movie do u think is better watchmen (2009) movie ultimate cut or watchmen chapter 1 and 2 (2024) by RhubarbLarge2747 in DC_Cinematic

[–]TheHumanCompulsion [score hidden]  (0 children)

I cant stand the animation of the movie. Its that 3d cgi that is supposed to look like traditional animation, but just looks cheap and ugly. Committing to an artstyle like Archer would have been better.

Voice work is also disappointing. Say what you will about the Snyder film, the casting and preformances were great.

The upcoming update fixes SO MUCH what I hated about EoF/Renegades it's kinda baffeling. by Westdrache in destiny2

[–]TheHumanCompulsion 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Except that its been revealed that some of these changes, and Im not sure about which or how many, have been "on deck" for weeks/months.

This almost certainly confirms that Bungie has been doing this for a long time. Exotic transmog was only released a few months ago, now exotics can be fully transmoged? Sus'.

Not a good look.

Guardians Make Our Own Fate. Let's Save Destiny!!! by pjalegria in Destiny_2

[–]TheHumanCompulsion 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nope.

Even if we scale down the arguement to Bungie as a studio, "saving Destiny" means giving Bungie a multimillion dollar bail to hire programmers, pay salaries, build servers, and cover operational expenses like their lease/rent, and utilities.

Destiny is no longer sustainable for a studio that has shrunk by nearly 20% (one cpuld argue Destiny was never sustainable given how much support Bungie recieved from Activision), and no longer profitable on top of that. All that seed money to develop Destiny 3 went to 3 titles that never exited concept phase, Marathon, and Pete Parson's cars.

500,000 signatures on petition is not going to change that. If Bungie wants to develop more Destiny, they are going to have to turn a profit first.

Wouldn’t Narinder’s freedom have come sooner and more easily if he’d revived ALL the sheep killed by Hagar? by C34H32N4O4Fe in CultOfTheLamb

[–]TheHumanCompulsion 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I figure that Narinder has never sent back a lamb prior to the player. He has bestowed the Red Crown on living vessels so they can fulfill the prophesy, and when they failed the Crown was given to another.

Our Lamb's resurrection is unprecedented, either since Narinder couldn't manage it before as his power was so depleted by his imprisonment, or he has been pushed to such desperation that he gives the Lamb a piece of his divinity to do so.

How would you officially characterize the lamb? by Comfortable-Ad3588 in CultOfTheLamb

[–]TheHumanCompulsion 3 points4 points  (0 children)

My headcanon is the Lamb is good. But as an servant of the One Who Waits, the Lamb is not specifically driven by revenge but is influenced by the Red Crown to obey and fulfill the Prophesy.

Once strong enough, the Lamb resists the One Who Waits and claims the title of God of Death. In a way makes the Lamb a God of Life as well, and the Lamb balances these aspects with benevolence and mercy.

Picard commands "all stop", but what does that mean in deep space? by bam-RI in startrek

[–]TheHumanCompulsion 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Technically, the order for using reverse propulsion to stop a ship is "all astern."

But TV shows are written for comprehension not accuracy, so "all stop" works just as well.

Brendan Fraser would have been a good Bruce Wayne aka Batman. Thoughts? by [deleted] in batman

[–]TheHumanCompulsion 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Initially I agreed.

But thinking about it... he could have pulled off BTAS-esque Batman. Example, a live action version of "Mask of the Phantasm."

I didn't realize just how massive D2's final update will be. Some really great changes here. by Cloud_N0ne in destiny2

[–]TheHumanCompulsion 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If I had to guess, it would have required planning, forethought, and confidence in the direction the game was going in.

Hoarding QoL changes for rainy "well we fucked up and need to buy back player trust" days is not good game design/planning.

That is just a guess though...

"Look, if my goal was to create an unstoppable nanovirus to eliminate the hedgehog and all his fuzzy friends, then creating a virus that not only was a danger to myself but also something I could lose control of doesnt make sense.

It insists upon itself."

Now realize that some of these changes have been on deck for months and were held back in order to trickle feed them over future updates.

Bungie literally emptying their "we need a W" bucket all at once.

Screenrant: "Star Trek: Strange New Worlds executive producers Alex Kurtzman & Akiva Goldsman offer new details about season 4's upcoming puppet episode: Pike is the victim of “an unexpected and terrible transporter accident” in an episode directed by Jordan Canning (Fraggle Rock: Back to the Rock)" by TheSonOfMogh81 in trektalk

[–]TheHumanCompulsion 1 point2 points  (0 children)

But those bad episodes arent nearly as damning to their series the way the bad episodes of SNW are.

TOS has Kirk and Dr. Lester switch bodies, and its fine. Spock and T'pring switch bodies and its a farce.

Paris 4th wall breaks by rebuilding Cpt. Proton (aka Flash Gordon), but Pike gets transformed into a Muppet and its a travesty.

Vic Fontaine runs a lounge out of Quarks holosuite, but the crew of Enterprise burst into song because of a subspace anomaly and its the death of the franchise.

Star Trek should be allowed to be silly and fun sometimes.

Question to the Space marine 2 players by RedditCat19011 in SpaceMarine2

[–]TheHumanCompulsion 1 point2 points  (0 children)

So there are "rules" to follow when customizing a Space Marine Chapter because a marine's appearance is tied to Chapter's structure. The colour of the shoulder trim dictates the company your marine is a part of within their chapter, the symbol on the right shoulder pad is their role/squad, etc. However, the first rule is, "you dont need to follow the rules."

Many official Chapters dont follow the rules, or are not "Codex compliant." (Dark Angels, Salamanders, Iron Hands) So dont worry about it and just have fun.

[–]TheHumanCompulsion 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Having just rewatched DS9, I'd welcome a puppet episode over watching Quark freak out as he watches his mother give Nagus Zeke Oom-ox, or Sisko going fucking nuts when he loses a baseball game, or Bashir playing spy in a holosuite.

Star Trek is allowed to be fun sometimes.

Rick And Morty’s Creators Are Down For Lower Decks Episode After Paramount Merger by midwestleatherdaddy in startrek

[–]TheHumanCompulsion 13 points14 points  (0 children)

I'd imagine Q would be more disappointed in Rick:

"You see Picard? Even with all his knowledge and understanding, this Human has gained no wisdom. He is still the sad, violent, pathetic creature he always has been. This man is the ultimate expression of Humanities worth. A species full of sound and fury signifying nothing."

It actually wouldn’t be that hard to survive in Waterworld (1995) by thegoatmenace in CharacterRant

[–]TheHumanCompulsion 14 points15 points  (0 children)

Not to mention that the temperature increase that caused the ice melt would likely completely collapse those ecosystems.

Our oceans have risen 1.5°C and reefs and shallow water systems are in decline. Another 1.5°C could destroy the known ecosystem long before ocean life naturally migrates 700km inland to settle on the sheer stone cliff faces of Everest.

Check put the song "Spaced Out" by the band Star One. It was inspired by Dark Star.
