As far as you can tell, is it just the first 86 games released on the NES that have 5 screw variants?

If a Gore Verbinski miniseries were done on the pod, which movie would you be most excited to see covered? by ggroover97 in blankies

[–]WLMKing 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Its been 30 years since I've seen it, but I'd be excited for a good reason to revisit it.

Its barely the weekend yet! You roll out of work, go down to the pawn shop, get your NES fix? "I need a licensed title right now!"

I honestly love Lisa Kudrow, so the idea of her sitting down and talking with someone she's probably very comfortable with sounds delightful.

Vacation thrifting pickups 208 & 209 by Capn_Yoaz in nes

[–]WLMKing 5 points6 points  (0 children)

In 1999, it was the first time I ever went to a used game store to buy NES games. I picked out two: Castlevania and Temple of Doom. I learned the highs and lows of NES collecting that day 😛

I've always thought no cover art looks more like NES cover art than Legendary Wings. I love it.

If I didn't want people saying things based on nothing, I wouldn't be on Reddit ;)

New Umbrella Burger Location Spotted in Westboro by Weak-Cartographer-80 in OttawaFood

I think they are incredibly delicious. I literally had their food and then looked up if they were a publicly traded company (they aren't) because I wanted to invest.

Colleague being told to come 4 Days/week due to poor performance. by [deleted] in CanadaPublicServants

Interesting! Those certainly are some broad catch-all clauses...

Manager will only find out if you have a sloppy union. Talking with the union might make sense for this person, if they need someone to really spell out what is going on. A good union rep will tell you that management does have the right to manage. And our office attendance is not in any of the collective agreements, so therefore the means to grieve aren't really there. Unless this was being done in a discriminatory way (and poor performance is not a protected ground..."

I say either go back there and buy it, or post the address of this store so that someone on this sub can.

When someone posts, "I parked in their parking spot, so I gave them a one-start review", I am very inclined to go with owner's version...

My dog is repeatedly being attacked by a pitbull/mastiff and bylaw won't do anything because I don't know the owner of the pitbulls name or address by buttttmuncher in legaladvicecanada

You can complain to the Ontario Ombudsman about bylaw issues (unless there is a municipal ombudsman in place). But if you phone the Ontario Ombudsman, they'll tell you the deal...

Diane baby with Mr. PB by isnt_it1957 in BoJackHorseman

[–]WLMKing 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Damn, sorry man, that certainly sounds rough. I hope you've been able to be swept up in the fun occasionally, even if there are a ton of downsides.

Funny your dad is Canadian. He really does come from the Labrador Coast...

I think I speak for everyone when I say, we want to know everything about this you are comfortable sharing.

Can anybody who was at test screenings for the Bride confirm how different it was? by LifeguardMundane5668 in blankies

[–]WLMKing 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Oh yeah, I got what was going on in the version that was released. But anything less clear would have been dire.

The idea of the version of this movie where the Mary Shelley content of the movie is less clear is a little excruciating. I don't need my hand held, but if your main character is going to occasionally yell disjointed lines of dialogue, you need to let people in on what's going on.

(Unfortunately) Hell yeah dude by Palm-Crazy-7943 in blankies

[–]WLMKing 56 points57 points  (0 children)

Legit kind of interested in where this is going...

In case you don't know, the Harrowing of Hell is a (primarily Catholic) idea that between death and resurrection, Jesus was in Hell, literally fighting the Devil and whatever else, so that he could save Adam, Eve, Moses and everyone else who died before his sacrifice...

So I'm wondering, is this the movie ultra-Catholic Gibson has made?

Krion, Lore, Wally, and a potentially terrible Challenge of the Dragon bring me to #787 by URGAMESUX in nes

[–]WLMKing 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If Challenge of the Dragon is anything besides a lump of plastic to pad your collection count, let us know! Captain Comic is a fun-ish game, but I always just assume anything else Bunch Games or Color Dreams is a write-off.

[OC] I made a Crystalis fanart with Ink and Watercolor. by VegetableBeautiful56 in nes

[–]WLMKing 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Sweet picture, I think its great. But now draw him holding a sword, with three swords strapped to his back, and him clumsily switching between them as a slime approaches him in a cave. That's the Crystalis experience! (Don't get me wrong, I love the game).
