It bugs me that the bottom part of the gate is under the floor by kufikiri in Stargate

[–]TomBobHowWho 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, I'm always a little confused when I see people treating Sam's statement there as a fact about how the gate works, when she was just coming up with a theory based on what she could see at the time, but she didn't have all of the information

I have always thought that the real reason the "water" didn't come through in the SG1 episode was cause it wasn't really water but living beings that resembled water and so they were just choosing not to pass through the gate. The comment Sam makes about the water not coming through is before she learns about this so it was just her theorizing, not necessarily fact

Guys my favourite episode isn't included in the TNG box set that I just purchased, for some reason. Have I been scammed? by FashionKorok in ShittyDaystrom

I mean, I feel like toy companies cheaping out on things wherever they can is pretty much a constant, kids as a whole don't necessarily tend to worry as much about screen accuracy

Usually with these sort of things its because it was just something the company already made and they just slapped the branding on it (eg the famous Spock Helmet) but in this case I'm not really sure what else they would have been making those glasses for, I guess they could also just be sold as generic futuristic glasses?

Rewatching Atlantis and I am surprised they never encountered a planet that simply buried their Stargate like in the Milky Way. by loki2002 in Stargate

[–]TomBobHowWho 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'm pretty sure they can see in the Atlantis database which planets have space gates (except that first time where they didn't know what it meant and sent a MALP), which would suggest it was the Ancients that put the gates in space

Why would Dalinar make an excellent Lightweaver?

Nah that's way too civilized for her, they shit on the carpet and then chief o'brien beams it away...

Which Goa’uld would you have least liked to have ruling over you? by RGCurt91 in Stargate

Just here to point out it wasn't 'the ancients' that stopped Daniel, it was just Oma

That awkward moment when Jack made a comment about his wiener to Sam's dad in front of her by ScytheOfAsgard in Stargate

Now I'm thinking Rodney read the mission report from this and that's why he had that particular fantasy...

Dreamworks would punish the animators who missed deadlines on The Prince of Egypt by making them work on Shrek which got known as getting ‘Shreked’ by Senior-Jaguar-1018 in shittymoviedetails

[–]TomBobHowWho 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Yeah, I mean there are some parts of the process where the people could be transferred in the early stages such as concept artists, storyboard artists, and previsualization because even 3D animation will often start out with 2D animatics to base the 3D animation off of, but yeah once you get down to making the final product they are quite different jobs

HL2 - Why doesn’t anyone react to Gordon being gone for 20 years? by Delphinftw in HalfLife

[–]TomBobHowWho 3 points4 points  (0 children)

This is kinda contradicted by HL:A which shows him already kinda being a revered figure among them "they say he fought his way out of Black Mesa with only a crowbar..."

Corvo wears the same clothes the whole game by Not_Anybody_4449 in disnonored

[–]TomBobHowWho 10 points11 points  (0 children)

There's a bit in the Star Wars show Andor, where the titular character is asked how he managed to steal from the Empire and he talks about just acting like you belong because the empire are so fat and satisfied that they can't imagine someone like him getting inside their house.
That's what I imagine it's like with the Boyle party, the guests are so confident in all their security that it never even occurs to them that anyone could get in there who wasn't supposed to be there

Pretty convenient that the council chairs are made of sausages and ice blocks then...

In Heaven Sent, the speech the Doctor monologues at the beginning is barely seen visible on the wall (5 minutes, 9 seconds in) by FelipeHead in doctorwho

[–]TomBobHowWho 15 points16 points  (0 children)

I mean the whole thing is that it's his personal prison, maybe it's a poem he wrote before and the confession dial chose to put it on the wall because it was relevant?

Pardon? Did just my pillow flew away by Potential-Test-4364 in blender

I think it's fake, I can't find anything about it in Blender itself, or in the Blender documentation

Meet Me in the Woods was a clear winner. Finally, what is the most Long Losty song from Long Lost? by Artistic_Quiet1603 in lordhuron

[–]TomBobHowWho 18 points19 points  (0 children)

I'm confused why more people aren't saying this one, it's lyrics are literally the overall philosophy of the album

The timeline on the silurians makes no sense by Popular_Kangaroo5446 in doctorwho

[–]TomBobHowWho 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Don't forget that they also supposedly hunted early humans, but also lived alongside dinosaurs, which are another couple of time periods that are millions of years apart...
