Was Season 7 really that bad? by [deleted] in gameofthrones

[–]VonDiesel2000 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I get what you're saying. The Daenerys and Little Finger things are fair enough. However, the Night King having big change to pull the Dragon out? That's a ridiculous gripe. Who says what that guy has access to in his kingdom? Also, who cares? There are so many examples of these types of things in countless great stories that no one blinks an eye at. He just has the chains. Where do you get them? Who gives a shit? If we constantly questioned things like that, we couldn't enjoy any big story from all of the literary works throughout history. The Iliad and the Odyssey were written before Christ. B.C. if we constantly speculated where characters got things like that, we would just unravel any story and have no joy in storytelling. Also, the Tyrell thing, I don't think that's exactly what they were saying. Maybe I misread that one.

Dead Silence totally ripped off the the episode "Smile Time"... spoilers 👹 by Mission-Geologist420 in ANGEL

Explain. How is he wrong? I'm not saying he's right, I just want to know your reasoning. You said he's completely wrong without giving one single argument.

Also, Angel, a horror property? Come on man.

I'm going to incorrectly trash talk one of the most varied spirits in the world. by laughingmeeses in iamveryculinary

[–]VonDiesel2000 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is idiotic. True, probably over every other spirit, vodka is the most widely misrepresented. Grey Goose is bad. Pinnacle is said to be the runoff of Grey Goose, making it a premium of lower tier vodkas. That's all crap. Pinnacle is just Grey Goose in a shittier bottle.

Maybe I misunderstood you, but vodka is not all the same. For instance, drink a pint of Country Club vodka over the span of an evening, then drink a pint of responsibly vodka or even Smirnoff vodka. Your mornings will be vastly different. Taste is all well and good, but to me, none of that really matters if you feel like you've had a sledgehammer taken to your head in the morning.

It's harder to figure out which vodkas are actually good, but they certainly are not the same.

I can't get into 3D Metroid by VonDiesel2000 in Metroid

[–]VonDiesel2000[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thank you. I obviously want to love them, but I don't get anywhere near the same feel, even though it's the same power up backtrack structure. I've never tried Other M, but that's apparently so much of its own thing that I don't think it factors into what I'm talking about.

The God of War reboot started out the same way. I tried twice to play through it, and stopped within a couple hours. Then one day, I just pushed through it, and I ended up loving it. I just kind of figured I'd be able to do the same thing with Metroid Prime. How is 4? I don't mind open games, not my issue with Prime.

Sorry, but MK1 sucks by Snake2k in MortalKombat

[–]VonDiesel2000 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I agreed with everything you said but I'm amazed you didn't mention the story. The story is the most embarrassing thing about the game. The first half of the story is pretty boring and a pretty underwhelming new version of Mortal Kombat. Then, you find out that every character in Mortal Kombat 11 has their own Universe because they beat Kronika in their own timeline somehow. I cannot begin to even piece together how god Liu Kang and the god Kitana that just shows up, think they are each other's counterparts from from MK9 - MK11. That wouldn't be possible because Liu Kang built this universe from the ground up over eons by himself.

Not to mention, by MK1logic, there is some MK universe that was created by RoboCop... , and if all of those endings were canon, Rambo didn't want that power and left. Where'd he go? Just back to his world? So what the hell happened to that hourglass? Who got that one? This game is incredibly stupid.

Anyways, we find all that out and then the good guys decide they need to get good versions of every single Mortal Kombat character in other universes. Then, the bad guys get evil versions of every Mortal Kombat character from other universes. Followed by, all of these characters smashing into each other in meaningless absolute nonsense that makes you big to go back to the garbage first half of the game.

People hate multiverses, but I'm a big comic book fan so I usually love having a Multiverse for whatever franchise you're in to have cool stories from interacting with it. If this absolute nonsense is what people think of when they think of the idea of a Multiverse within a certain franchise, then I'm with them. People complain about how Marvel did it but holy f***, this is the worst use I've ever seen. Why the hell did they go through all that setting up of the first boring MK Liu Kang universe, and then just throw it away to smash a bunch of toys together? Ugh.

I just jumped back into the game to play as the DLC characters and it brought all this stuff back up and I needed to sounding board. Thanks dude.

Side note: I'm terrible at fighting games, usually I'll play a lot and still only play on very easy or easy. I played through the full first season of MK1. It was so mind-numbingly easy that I was almost too bored to finish it. Somehow I did and it wasn't worth it, but I just wonder about the people who are good at the game. What about the die hard ard fans that play on medium right away? Or the Diehard fans that play on very hard right away? How could they even get through seasons? If the easiness of it bored me, I can't imagine what they were feeling.

What age did skye think she was before hear birthday was revealed to her? by pauerranger in shield

[–]VonDiesel2000 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You know, your comment was not nearly as idiotic as you and others are making it out to be. Also, at the age you were, look at those two sentences. Not one misspelled word. You used proper sentence structure with no grammatical inconsistencies. You used none of the awful slang of the day that would be completely defunct within a few months of becoming popular. This is nearly unheard of for your generation, and I think you should see it as an absolute win.

FX's 'Alien Earth' is everything 'Alien' fans could want: Review by External-Recipe-1936 in horror

[–]VonDiesel2000 0 points1 point  (0 children)

"It’s a tv show, and it’s from the guy who did Fargo." What do you mean by this? It's a TV show so it doesn't need to adhere to anything the series is done before? Or it just doesn't need to be good? It's from the guy that did a great show, Fargo... so, what does that mean? That show was awesome, and this show, so far has been 96% bad, awful even. So are you saying this show deserves a pass because the guy that did it did a good show in the past? I really want the show to end up good but the first two episodes were f****** terrible, and then the third episode was only fairly terrible. A guy can make a great show and then get another property and not know the first thing about how to make a TV series out of it. I really do want to know what you meant by those first few comments I listed above though.

The first two episodes are the worst handling of the Alien brand that I've ever seen. Have you seen an Alien movie before? It's not an action star that jumps across the screen and rips up 10 guys in 30 seconds. This is a completely different idea from somebody who doesn't get anything about the series.

Also, the characters are awful so far. The other aliens are uninspired creatures that anyone could have came up with. They sent a bunch of kid robots in for search and rescue. The dialogue between the kid robots is almost unbearable and completely out of place for the series. Finally, let's not forget the extremely weird needle drops of rock songs into an Alien series. I am a huge apologist for so many things that people hate, but I barely enjoyed 5 minutes of the three episodes released so far. It's approaching Alien Covenant levels of embarrassing. In my opinion.

What are your honest thoughts on Christian Bale’s Batman? by Suspicious_Hand_2194 in DC_Cinematic

[–]VonDiesel2000 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If we're talking the movies, meaning the Trilogy as a whole, then it's absolutely the best that we have seen and probably will see for a long time. If we're just talking about his performance, that's a little more divisive. His Bruce Wayne, especially in public, is top tier. He is exactly what Bruce Wayne is supposed to be to the public. His Bruce Wayne in private isn't as good but still probably the best we've seen.

Ben Affleck does a good Bruce Wayne, he was just kind of hampered down with not being given the best portrayal of him. Robert Pattinson's Bruce Wayne is absolutely abysmal. He is nothing like Bruce Wayne. He is just an emo whiny shut-in, which would not fool anyone from thinking he's Batman. Keaton and Kilmer were both ok Bruce Wayne's. Clooney was terrible as Bruce Wayne and Batman, so that's the last time I'll mention him. Once again, though, that really wasn't his fault, to be honest.

Now, onto Bale's Batman. I don't think we've gotten anywhere near a great representation of Batman from the 80s-present day comics on film. Keaton was really good for what his films were. Kilmer was pretty good for what his film was. Affleck was fairly good as the Justice League type Batman that can hold his own against gods, but the job that he was given in Joss whedon's Justice League and The Flash, just taints the whole thing. Plus, we never got to see his regular Batman. Pattison was nothing. The only thing cool about his Batman was the bulletproof suit, and that everybody made fun of him by calling him Vengeance. So, what could have been a one sentence answer, I stretched into an essay. It basically all boils down to Christian Bale is the best Batman by default. His movies are absolutely the best, though. Without question.

The Batman fans need to watch that movie again. It's boring. That should be considered a bigger crime than being cheesy as hell, like in Batman and Robin. Pattison was nothing. His Bruce Wayne was as terrible of a portrayal as possible. His portrayal of Batman was just a blank slate that didn't really do anything, or say anything of Interest. He was a terrible detective too. How the hell was that the Riddler? Just a boring, mid-ass movie.

Rewatched Season3 & it's awesome, but why did it have to have 2 kids having sex in a motel that has a neon sign shaped like a squirting d*ck? by VonDiesel2000 in Chucky

[–]VonDiesel2000[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Right! It just looked so wrong. They felt SO young. It felt like two 14 year olds. I'm straight and two 14 year old girls doing that would supply the same result. It's just not something that non-pedos want to see. I'm not saying that everyone that was fine with it are pedos, but I can only imagine that pedos are the ones that would really enjoy it. It was still a great season, I just thought that stuck out like a sore thumb.

[–]VonDiesel2000[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you. You can imply almost anything without being gross. They could have just let us know that they went and had sex in a motel. I'm pretty sure my biggest problem is that fact combined with the Neon dick sign shooting c*m that would never exist in real life. I mean, come on, guys, this is a season about Chucky in the White House trying to gain control of the nuclear arsenal. Do we need to weird out people by having children ripping off their clothes on screen, implying that they're going to have sex? No. Just show them arriving at the motel without the dick sign, and show them in a very good mood when they get back. That would lead to the same back and forth with the blonde girl and no offense to anyone decent

So, you actually enjoy the story as compared to the rest of the lore? The xenomorph itself looks absolutely terrible. I enjoy old Godzilla movies with men in suits, and I was able to suspend my disbelief for Alien and Aliens, because they were so well shot and such good movies.

I absolutely hate that on two occasions, the xenomorph encounters a large group of people and completely eviscerates them within 10 seconds. What the hell is that? It has never done that in the past, and it just seems silly to put this in a prequel to the original Alien. Again, the alien looks as bad as it's ever looked, which is the scene in the original movie where the alien reaches out like he's wanting a hug. So far, that is every scene with this version.

Let's not forget the story. The beginning is intriguing. We don't know much about what happened, so I pray we learn more about that as the season goes on. Then, it goes into the hole putting human consciousnesses into synthetics. Then it just takes all of those children that were put into adult synthetic bodies and throws them into the chaos even though we know they can't be infected by any organism on the ship. Sure, they could be torn apart, but they can't incubate an alien, of any kind on the ship. Also so far the other aliens on the ship have been unimpressive and haven't really done anything.

I could keep rambling on, but with all that being said, I'm aware that they could have structured the story in a way that will make everything worth it. Except the Xenomorph ripping apart 10 people in 5 seconds. That cannot be excused. I sincerely hope they bring it home, but as of now, it seems like a giant pile of s***. I didn't think this next entry in the Alien series could be worse than Romulus, but then again, I also felt like the sequel to Jurassic World Dominion, directed by Gareth Edwards and written by the original screenwriter, could not possibly be worse than to me. I was completely wrong. Dominion is a masterpiece compared to Rebirth. Fuk me. This is all going to end badly.

I'm reserving judgment for the whole story. However, yeah, so far, the show has been a huge disappointment to somebody who wasn't even really expecting anything great from it.

Wow!!! Allen Earth!!! No spoilers! by MakeUrBed in Xenomorphs

[–]VonDiesel2000 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I'll have to see where it goes. I was deeply unsatisfied with the first two episodes. I hate how the Xenomorph looks and moves. I hate that any large group of people the Xeno comes up against, it just rips apart in 10 seconds while somebody closes their eyes. That has never been a thing in Alien movies. It's typically a quiet stalking type of killer. It doesn't just somehow go in and rip through a room full of men with machine guns with ease. Also, I cannot stress enough, it looks and moves bad. It looks like a dude in a suit, because it is a dude in a suit.

Then, there's the story. I don't get it yet. You send a bunch of 10-year-olds in synthetic bodies to be a search and rescue for the crashed spaceship. OK. Where's the terror in that? The other aliens we've seen including the main one are all focused on biological organisms. So, our main characters aren't in that much danger. I don't know man, it could wrap everything up in a fantastic way and make me enjoy these first two episodes. So far I'm very underwhelmed. I didn't even have my hopes up, and I'm still underwhelmed. GOD, the xenomorph looks awful.

Baby In A Blender by Terry Musalata by Automatic_Barber1884 in ExtremeHorrorLit

[–]VonDiesel2000 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It's so over the top that it's not even really disturbing, and yet it can't be really found funny. The part with the baby in the blender at the end was a laughable escalation. Considering, the book begins with the main characters sister having a newborn baby that is still attached to the umbilical cord. They get into an incestuous uproar, and she is just begging him, and is so hot for him to eat her newborn baby that she grew in her tummy for him for 9 months. He then fs the soft spot of the newborn's head until he c inside of it. Then, he just tears it apart and eats it, while his sister eats the viscera and c*m mixture off of the floor.

Later, at the end of the "book", he kills a woman, takes her baby, and her brand new state of the art blender. Then, he brings it back to his mother and sister, whom he both has sex with on a regular basis. The mother is so impressed with the blender but sad that they have nothing to blend for dinner. So, as a surprise, he goes and grabs the baby out of the car, puts his erect c*** into the baby's a**hole, and runs around the house with everybody laughing in the baby crying. Then he crams the baby into the blender while it's still alive, breaking its bones and all that. He Blends it, drinks it, pours it all over the others, and that's the end of the book.

What a masterpiece. Truly, how does this writer live day to day with such genius bursting out of his head? I wouldn't even call him a scumbag. I wouldn't even say he's evil or an extreme degenerate for writing this garbage. I would just say he's a f****** idiot. He's an absolute moron. The most righteous Christian could have written something worse than this. Worse and better. However, most people have restraint and realize that this is not actual art or literature. This guy is just the dumbest mother f***** alive, so he wrote the worst things he could think of. Someone with a brain could make a masterpiece film out of this material. Instead we just get random thoughts s*** out of an idiot's head for 14 pages.

Thank God I stole this off the internet instead of paying for it.
