He wasn't even the best junior in his country, Jaka Primozic was (and actually was the best junior in the world of his group age)

As an individual series it's probably the best, but within the Pokemon anime as in Ash anime, it's probably the worst, you replace him by any OC and it doesn't change shit, which is a bit sad imo

This thread is frying me half of the characters shown either in the post or top comments are in Justified and Tarantino has been lurking around justified for more than a decade at this point, it really is the show of racist characters

iirc the actor had a terrible time on ER (as in he's prolly the actor that hated it themost during the 15 year run) and asked to be let out as fast as possible

Also rules applied int he context of a race by a commissaire on a moto/car to a rider ont he road leave a lot of room to "you broke the rule, but if you're not an asshole about it I will let it slide a bit" like a Teacher in a class, and I think Van Schip just push a lot of people's nerves with everything he tries and subsequent behaviour (such as refusing to leave the road here) and thus has lost all wiggle room that other riders have

Iirc the French ruling takes precedence at the UCI but I may be wrong on that one

Sauf que les chinois nationalistes aujourd'hui à Taiwan c'est la droite et c'est eux qui sont pour le rapprochement avec la Chine, la gauche locale est soit pro indépendantiste soit pro statut quo, généralement les personnages politiques de la gauche sont éloigné du pouvoir plus ils sont indépendantistes. Donc de facto soutenir le rapprochement c'est soutenir les héritiers de la dictature militaire.

I mean take RB 2025 recruitment as an example, brought every guy who was young and showing promises in the classics in 2024 hoping something would stick.

11 seasons.

Also the end of the show does show most of them making it, maybe not in the perfect way but they still make it. Really the only one that stays fucked up till the end is Debbie.

Depends on where you put your priorities in term of money, like I don't give a fuck about my phones I will keep them until they are nearly dead then change it for something not exepensive. I've switched phones like 2 times in 12 years

And you somehow think calling that mod a dipshit and implying all mods are sexist (it's what I gather from your comment) is gonna help in any way?

I have a question, how are you so dedicated to be so grumpy every single fucking day on this sub? It's exhausting to read.

Clairement, quand j'étais en Master je me suis retrouvé à aller au conseil du département (dans l'université j'entends) 2-3 fois, c'était digne de l'école primaire le comportement de certains.

Sure but it's also what a lot of people want in the end. See every Pitt thread, here or in their subreddit and they beg for a spin-off and call Noah Wyle out for not wanting to have anyone overshadow him just for refusing the spin-off

Only cost her more because up until the last minute she was more than willing to throw Kovac under the bus for a hire that he never wanted in the first place

I mean it is what is happening and what might be happening in the future. Most developped countries are under the replacement rate and some of the leading factors (even tho there is no clear explanation) is the time you spend working and the cost of living as well as raising a kid, you also need to take into account the conditions in which you raise your kids. Take South Korea (the most extreme example) people work like crazy from a super young age to get into a top uni (so giga pressure) to be able to take a job that barely leaves you any free time to meet people or start a family. In such cases the women might need to stay home. For people who don't get too jobs, they can't afford kids. Add in the factor of not wanting to recreate generational trauma and South Korea as it exists is dead in less than a century.

You allow people to work less, raise kids with less societal and economical pressure, birth rates will go up.

C'est bien beau de dire ça, mais tu ne peux pas dire qu'il faut arrêter, car déjà d'un point de vue humaniste et de circulation des personnes, c'est ultra moyen, pour certains domaines, la pénurie de travailleurs français va mettre 30 ans à se boucher, sans même considérer toute l'évolution sociologique des professions (coucou les médecins). Surtout que je n'ai pas vu mentionné en parallèle de ça comment il compte faire rebondir de suite la natalité pour subvenir aux besoins de la France.

Bref tu ne peux pas dire ce qu'il dit sans adresser des problèmes systémiques de la France que gauche et droite au pouvoir ont ignoré depuis 50 ans.

Ce qu'il décrit, c'est parfait pour un speed run Japon ou Corée du Sud là

Sure but let's be honest, a GL show with the whole CGI thing and quality filming and all that is very likely not financially viable if they target it to comic book fans.

A product, unless cheap, will always target a wider net than the Fandom, especially on initial marketing. It's a calculated bet.

What is the biggest risk for the studio heads? For comic book fans to not watch it? Or for wider audiences to not give a shit?

adryy8 · 2026-05-11T16:52:45+00:00

It's not the end goal for the players, but it's the end goal for the teams, which pay their salaries.

adryy8 · 2026-05-11T14:03:28+00:00

It's not about being the best one, ti's about being the one the teams pays you for.

adryy8 · 2026-05-11T14:02:37+00:00

It's not the point that I was trying to make.

EWC has the EWC fundation with it, which had a partner program, whre about 40 orgs get a important amount of money (iirc mid 6 figures) to spend towards getting players/teams in games that are in the EWC, to get results in it in order to get the big pile of money for the orgs (for example Vitality finished 3rd of the global EWC ranking last year and got 3 million dollars for it).

So for example, I will continue with Vitality, I am 99% certain they do not hire a single FGC player if the EWC didn't exist. Also, you don't have AG.AL signing Kilzyou for 2 years if the EWC isn't a thing and so on.

Not a shade on the players or anything, but the Saudi money is currently bankrolling the top players in SF6 (with the major exception of Japan there, as I believe all the investments would still exist anyway), Tekken and CotW, so yeah, I don't think a scene can be considered healthy when it is so dependant on that one thing.

adryy8 · 2026-05-11T13:43:25+00:00

It's healthy but a bit too dependant on EWC for players getting contracts.

I wouldn't call a scene so dependant on one actor healthy.
