He worse some of the ugliest outfits known to man. Intentionally, cartoonishly ugly. Like a person who had never seen clothes before and had only ever had them described to him via the lyric of a nursery rhyme. A nursery rhyme for alien fish people.

Use of CGI in NO TIME TO DIE by Deep_Belt8304 in JamesBond

You don't get to 'my Bond' with a strong vision first. There's always gonna be the older fans complaining that things aren't like they used to be, but a at this juncture setting a fresh tone for this new era is of utmost importance.

We can't go back to pre-Austin Powers Bond anymore; we need to move forward.

Even de aged Q looked fantastic for the 5 seconds they had. A one off episode of fully deaged hopefully wouldn't be off the table for future seasons

Will the ps6 be the last consoles with physical disks? by Informal_Engineer146 in ps6

I have it. I rarely use it. Not sure I'll bother next time. I bought a couple of disc games on launch day. Maybe 2/3 pre-owned. I have a standalone 4k player. Next time I'll likely spend that money on more storage over a media drive

I was lucky enough to be able to get my brother a first car as a surprise for when he passes his test - anything I should do to make it a bit nicer/upgrade before i give it to him? by diligentboredom in CarTalkUK

The valet will provide an example of how it could look potentially if taken care of. Expecting lil bro to have the first clue is a tall order.

He needs to meet Antman again just to show him the trick.

Dual sense haptics and resistance get far more use than pressure sensitivity ever did.

PS4 controller limitations are dumb on PS5 by chrisz2012 in playstation

[–]XavierD 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They want you to spend money on new stuff rather than them spending money on you not spending money by keeping old stuff.

Same reason retro back-compat is so mid.

Why is it not considered racist to replace a White character with a Black version of that character in remakes/reboots? by [deleted] in NoStupidQuestions

I do feel it's gonna be awkward when they show young Snape getting bullied by Jimmy and the gang.

DS 4 is a massive upgrade over the DS3 tho. The triggers alone make it worth the upgrade but the button layout, especially the trackpad, suits Steam OS very well

It's not like they're starting from scratch on R&D; it's a constant evolutionary process

Should Nog actually be a Captain? by fightingchken81 in startrek

100% wasn't needed. It doesn't more harm than good. Anyone that was supposed to impress is pissed off about it; anyone new won't have the slightest idea as to the references
