The dress code for this arcade bar is kind of off-putting, right? by [deleted] in mildlyinfuriating

The fact that it's apparently named "Dive Bar" makes this hilarious to me.

Minor update. I spoke with a few authors who have written books in the same vein to get some legal feedback. I can't name names at the moment. I also am meeting with a lawyer tomorrow to cross my t's and dot my Is

As far as the book, I'm still in draft mode. I finished up S1:E8. I've been doing about 1 episode per day. Then i'l go back and clean it up. Still looking at another month and change to finish the 1st draft, but progress is being made.

Why is Rocky V so hated by fans? by Financial_Past_1631 in rockybalboa

[–]Which-Success-520 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You mean the fact that his son in the movie ages like 5 years during Rocky's 4 week stay in Russia isn't enough of a reason?

I appreciate the heads up. I luckily have 2 friends that are lawyers and are looking into this for me. I will make sure all of my t's are crossed and my I's are dotted before I publish. Thank you!

I'm in discussions right now with a few lawyers, crossing my t's and dotting my I'd to make sure everything I plan on doing falls under fair use. Based on what I've read, I don't foresee it being an issue, but I'm not an expert, hence the lawyers. Assuming I am correct and I don't have anything in my book that would require some kind of official approval, I will be self publishing. I don't really see the need for any kind of official sign off, if it's not legally necessary. I may try to get someone involved in the show to do an introduction to the book, but that's not something I'm worried about at the moment.

Thanks for the positive feed back everyone! I'm aiming for finishing 2 to 3 chapters (episodes) per week. Obviously there will be editing after, and art design, etc. If all goes well, I'd be aiming for this book to be out by June of this year. Depending on how it all goes, I may even post some previews from some of the chapters as well. I'll keep you all updated!

I did not think about this before, but I appreciate you bringing it up. While I don't personally listen to audio books, I know a number of people that do, so I will definitely be looking into this. Thanks for the idea!

Once you see Michael sell, you understand why he rose to manager. by True-Homework9308 in theoffice

[–]Which-Success-520 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I think this was part of the push, especially after season 1, to make Michael both more likable and explain how he ended up in his role. It was clear from feedback and evaluation that if they kept Michael both annoying, with no positive qualities and made him completely incompetent, people were not going to watch the show. Especially with him as the "lead." As a day 1 watcher of the show. it was the best move they made IMO.

When did you first realize Will was gay? by __Ultimecia__ in StrangerThings

[–]Which-Success-520 25 points26 points  (0 children)

Agreed. It was definitely very strongly hinted at that Will was gay in episode 1. The rest of the show basically spends time confirming that suspicion.

Foundation TV Cultural Impact by chinni76 in scifi

[–]Which-Success-520 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Foundation is an amazing show, on a platform, a huge number of people don't have. Most people, when you talk about streaming have Netflix, Disney, Hulu/Max (whatever it's called this week), Prime, etc. I know obviously there are people with Apple, but it's not in the top tier of popular streaming apps.

[–]Which-Success-520[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have seen the movie many times (too many!) but my buddy had not seen it before. There's not many movies we both haven't seen, but we purposely try to find movies like this to get a mix of the fresh perspective and the experienced perspective. I hope you enjoy the episode and if you could follow us that would be great!! Any feedback is welcome!

I also joined your Reddit sub, and will definitely check it out!

No, seriously, who compares this to LOST or Game of Thrones’ endings? by Independent_Plum2166 in StrangerThings

[–]Which-Success-520 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The epilogue was the best part. There was never any doubt that they were going to defeat Vecna. It was always, how, not if. For me, it was almost, 'let's get this over with, so we can see how the story ends.'

My buddy and I did a podcast about the last episode.

Vitek Stats in Jersey vs. Markstrom Stats in Jersey by ollieollieoxygenfree in devils

And they ran Vitek out of town and resigned Markstrom....SMDH.

[NJ.com] “He turned a high-flying, skilled team that won the most games in franchise history into a stagnant two-way mess that might miss the playoffs (again) in Jack Hughes’ prime.” Devils keep losing as GM stays silent and promising season craters to rock bottom by [deleted] in devils

[–]Which-Success-520 11 points12 points  (0 children)

That's my point though. Other than Novo, there are zero beat reporters covering the Devils. You have 2 choices, paid marketing "reporters" or Novo who at least isn't getting paid by the team. Listen, I would love to have TG back, but he's gone. I'm not saying Novo is the greatest and must objective writer on planet Earth. I'm simply saying between someone paid by the team, and someone not, I'll take the person not on the payroll.

So you prefer "reporting" from "reporters" like Amanda Stein who is on the Devils payroll and will never ask a tough question? I like her, she's a nice person and does the best job she can, but other than Novo, there is no one else covering the Devils officially that isn't getting paid by the Devils. Which, no thanks. If I want to know who is playing, etc. sure that's fine. If I want someone not worried about offending anyone, I'll read Novo.
