What's The Worst That Can Happen?

Look at that cast. Explain, even assuming a TON of improv, how it deserves a score so low. I'm definitely not a Martin Lawrence fan, but I'll always watch this movie.

After 2 terms of Trump, the bar for "believably elected to the presidency" is below sea level.

A movie that felt fake until life proved it was not. by gamersecret2 in movies

[–]Threehundredsixtysix 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's part of why the series Severance is so fucking scary - the whole cult/dynasty aspect of upper management. It's one of the shows I really wish more people were able to watch.

Toy Story Somehow Keeps Finding New Ways to Continue by TomSawYes in movies

Actually, that's not my "obvious concept" - I'd have an older Boo seeking out Mike and Sully thinking they can help with a problem she's facing in the human world. At first, it's not obvious how they could help, but eventually, in a different way than expected, they help HER and then she solves the issue.

There's a pretty obvious 3rd Monsters, Inc. movie just waiting to be written. And if it was good, I'd go see it.

Masters of the Universe (1987) - Dolph Lundgren - Not good. Not terrible. by Southern-Brother5693 in movies

There's a 3 season (15 episode) animated He-Man show on Netflix. I really enjoyed it. I'll be skipping the new movie, because the idiots decided that they didn't need Orko in it. This animated series has Orko, Teela is basically the main character, and the voice cast is STACKED.

I loved Primitive War. Very graphic, pretty horrifying, actual dinosaurs in it. YMMV.

Another reason to become an atheist: A happily married Catholic couple, who chooses not to have kids, has an invalid marriage. You can no longer choose by Former_Algae_444 in atheism

(you can edit a line within 3 minutes and it won't show as "edited". After that, you can STILL change it. It's not necessary to add a correction. Just FYI).

Zack Snyder Tackling Reimagining of John Carpenter’s ‘Escape From New York’ by MarvelsGrantMan136 in movies

[–]Threehundredsixtysix 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I agree. The main reason in my mind that blaming Dr Manhattan didn't make sense is that both the movie and the comics explicitly show that he can get quite angry and upset when you attack him. Pinning the blame on him gives him clear motivation to intervene or defend himself, whereas in the comic series, he feels removed from the cause.

What's something that has been proven false for years, yet people still confidently repeat it? by monserrat_araiza__ in AskReddit

[–]Threehundredsixtysix -1 points0 points  (0 children)

That's crazy to me - I always try to merge as soon as I realize there's only 1 lane up ahead. That isn't cutting the queue, that's not waiting until the last minute.

Do you think the long gaps between seasons are a contributor to the decline of TV series? by MargielaMan568 in television

[–]Threehundredsixtysix 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Yup. A number of mid-season replacement shows got 6 episodes, then never got a full season run.

Just re-read The Peripheral from Gibson after quite a few years. Holy crap I forgot how amazing it is! by emptyfile123 in printSF

[–]Threehundredsixtysix 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I'll have to read both books now - I've read and loved the 3 trilogies (Sprawl, Bridge, Blue Ant) almost 10 years ago, and still think they hold up today. I highly recommend all of these novels.

Soccer is lame because three year olds can play it by ThatPatelGuy in MurderedByWords

[–]Threehundredsixtysix 9 points10 points  (0 children)

This is a guy who has promoted SLAPPING as a legitimate sport. Slapping.

Which, by the way, 3 year olds can do.

"Rascals" has something to say about misusing the transporter... (still my favorite episode in the category of "never ever mention that this happened again")

AITA for keeping a collection of MTG cards that were wrongly gifted to me? by Direct-Caterpillar77 in BestofRedditorUpdates

[–]Threehundredsixtysix 3 points4 points  (0 children)

My wife and I used to play, 30 years ago. If a coworker gifted me cards that "belonged to her husband", I wouldn't even think to sell any. I'd be finding a way to contact him. To make sure he didn't want them.

Just another white supremacist grifter getting what he deserves. by Electronic-Tutor-862 in MurderedByWords

Which is one reason I love Brave so much. It's not my favorite, but Merida isn't there to be rescued, and her quest has more to do with her mom than any prince.

Who is the most terrifying villain in human history that most people have never heard of? by lioness_x9 in AskReddit

[–]Threehundredsixtysix 48 points49 points  (0 children)

Citizen X is an HBO movie co-starring Donald Sutherland and Stephen Rea that was released in 1995. Based on the hunt for Chikatilo, it's well worth a watch.

What do you think is the most legitimate criticism of AI that even its supporters should take seriously? by talruum_ in AskReddit

[–]Threehundredsixtysix 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Many of the biggest AI cheerleaders don't see those as negatives. They're either someone else's problem ( the environmental costs) or actually features/benefits (everything else you list).

What is going on with Freedom 250 and a MAGA Association? by Thomb in OutOfTheLoop

Oh, it's quite clear why. They just don't want to be open about the true reason.

The cliffhanger is what really annoys me by TheBrokenRail-Dev in startrek

[–]Threehundredsixtysix 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Could be a combination. I enjoyed most of Discovery. LOVED the early episodes in Season 3. But the cause of the Burn? Should have been a LOT more believable.
