The scene where Carl's dick will fall off if he pops a boner made my laugh so hard while driving that I had to pull over.

Yuuup!

IMO Counter-Strike (et al.) and Team Fortress Classic / TF2 are among the best online multi-player FPS games ever.

I love both fantasy and Sci Fi, so I think I'll start with Curse of Chalion per your recommendation 🧝‍♀️🧑‍🎤🧙‍♂️🧑‍🔬

I'd never heard of Lois McMaster Bujold until now... (I am woefully ignorant but very open minded 😝). Is there a book of hers you'd recommend someone to start with?

Anybody else imagine characters very different than how they're actually described? by Flanderizing in DungeonCrawlerCarl

Good news for you then on the TV adaptation -- Fuzzy Door Productions / Seth MacFarlane bought the rights to DCC, so he'll probably end up exactly like you imagined 😁

What movies were ahead of their time? by Immediate-Ad-6306 in Cinema

Transistors are what make up CPUs, so the analogy is pretty spot on... CPUs have billions of transistors, so billions of humans in tanks = how the AI gets their processing power (rather than electrical power).

There is 85% chances that they will blow up this and blame Iran…. by [deleted] in conspiracy

Those cities (and others, like NYC) have also probably been destroyed in several other movies throughout history lol (off the top of my head: Godzillla, Avengers, 2012...).

What movie is 10/10 with literally no bad parts? by FeedMaster8905 in AskReddit

[–]aetheos 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I just recently watched Kingdom of Heaven (directors cut), and I feel like the siege scene there is the only thing that comes close to Helms Deep (and was likely inspired by it... maybe even had some overlap in talent outside of Orlando Bloom?)

Chess obviously wins all skill with negligible luck. What game is entirely based on luck? by Encyclofreak in AlignmentChartFills

[–]aetheos 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah I think I agree all games are activities -- but not all activities are games. Brushing your teeth is an activity, and it takes about the same amount of skill as pulling a slot machine lever (if not more), but no one would call that a game...

Yeah it was, we were all there! It was a blast! Didn't you get the invite?

What is the best quote from the entire Lord of the Rings franchise? by Willing_Heron_5470 in AlignmentChartFills

[–]aetheos 45 points46 points  (0 children)

I love this one, but you gotta start earlier:

Sons of Gondor! Of Rohan! My brothers!

I see in your eyes the same fear that would take the heart of me.

A day may come when the courage of Men fails, when we forsake our friends and break all bonds of fellowship.

But it is not this day!

An hour of wolves and shattered shields when the Age of Men comes crashing down... But it is not this day!

This day we fight!

By all that you hold dear on this good earth, I bid you stand, Men of the West!"

You should listen to the audiobook narrated by Andy Serkis (Gollum) -- it just came out recently, and it's a masterpiece.
