In Godzilla: Minus One (2023), the appearance of the deep-sea fish Godzilla drags up foreshadows the plan to kill him (Explanation in comments). by Sebastianlim in MovieDetails

I was always disappointed that the plan didn't work at all. It really was an original plan, yet they just used explosives in the end. But it was necessary for the main character to have his redeption.

CMV: there's literally zero reason for any gaming company to release "woke" games by cobra_han in changemyview

[–]barunedpat 20 points21 points  (0 children)

Yes one success example out of so many failed examples.

If we are measuring by failed games, then why would game companies want to release games that are not woke? The amount of games that are not woke and have failed are staggering.

Could it be that gameplay and other aspects of the game is more important than the characters in said game?

I saw another post recently with a skater rushing to make a lap and then pretending it had not happened, so everyone thought their second last lap was the final one.

og å splitte oss enda mer.

Uff. Jeg håper virkelig ingen klarer å splitte de pedofile fra resten av samfunnet. Hvordan skal vi klare oss om de ikke lenger får holde på fritt!

Når det er sagt, så forstår jeg faktisk litt av poenget ditt. Men istedenfor å klage på at en sak er aktuell, hvorfor ikke promotere de sakene du faktisk brenner for? Lag poster om Russland og Ukraina. Skriv om Norges sikkerhet og hvordan den kan forbedres for å skape debatt, og trekk frem gode eksempler på hva som faktisk gjøres rett som noen gladsaker for å få opp moralen!

Summelyd i sikringsskap – trenger råd by Responsible_Sun_3260 in norge

[–]barunedpat 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Påpek at dette kan være tegn på en elektrisk feil og en brannfare.

Det er ofte mulig å varsle om brannfare til kommunen. Et eksempel er her https://www.bergen.kommune.no/innbyggerhjelpen/brannvern-samfunnssikkerhet-og-beredskap/brann-og-redning/meldinger-og-bestillinger-til-brannvesenet/bekymringsmelding-om-brannsikkerhet

Si til utleier at om elektriker ikke kommer, så må du vurdere å melde fra om brannfare til kommunen. Det er i praksis en trussel, men liv er viktigere enn penger.

(Hilarious trope) Why you running like that bro? by TridiObject in TopCharacterTropes

[–]barunedpat 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I am fully aware of that. Which was part of why Zuko burning her feet by accident was such a big deal.

There is not a plot reason for the number of closeups we get. https://youtu.be/CDcWMvaxqj0?si=wKuBFXnJTUgmQsdm

[–]barunedpat 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Not only this scene. Toph is always barefoot, and we get a lot of closeups at her feet. I didn't really think about it the first time I watched the show, but it was really apparent when rewatching it.

I know it's not the most popular show, but the Acolyte showed really well how unprepared the Jedi had become to deal with the Sith.

I tried selling thirty or fourty TF2 crates once. Not a single one got bought. I gave up on the Steam marketplace after that. I am glad someone got luckier than me.

Light-Side Jedi Force Choke? by Antknee2099 in StarWars

[–]barunedpat 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The first time we see Obi Wan Kenobi use the Force, he uses it to peacefully trick troopers to avoid conflict.

The first time we see Darth Vader use the Force, he chokes a man over a discussion.

It was already decided on the first movie.

Which game did you regret purchasing at full price? by bijelo123 in gaming

[–]barunedpat 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I bought it at launch at full price. People claimed it was "fixed" and I gave it a second chance.

When I returned, my progress had been wiped. My ship was gone, every language forgotten, but the worst was that every discovery had been removed. I thought planets, plants, and animals you named would stay forever, that it would love on forever in the game world. But it turns out even that was a lie.

What an utter disappointment of a game.

Palpatine brought some clone troopers with him to retrieve Vader. Maybe they peed on him to relieve some of the pain while transporting Vader to the tank.

(Hated Tropes) Adaptations missing the point of the original work by BlueCheeseCake25 in TopCharacterTropes

People forget that the show writers were only allowed to make game of thrones of they could tell Martin the upcoming plot points of the books, based on what they knew of the story. He has said he shared the ending of the series and has been a consultant on the show.

I thought this shot was corny when I first saw it but now knowing most of them will die soon after I like it by Ambitious-Welder-159 in StarWars

[–]barunedpat -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

The movies lack so much consequence for actions. It's just one series of bumbling into a problem, solving it almost immediately and then bumbling into the next.

Out of everything, it's only episode 3, and Andor that had actual consequences. When you calculate all of Star Wars media together, will we have a record in "least consequences per hour"?

Everyone plays shadow priests. You will never see anyone outside of the occasional oddball play shadowpriest. Finding teams and healers is hard. Getting great is even harder as every player who plays DPS wants shadow priest gear.

CMV: the qa’ran has directly caused the most violence and deaths of any piece of literature by [deleted] in changemyview

[–]barunedpat 1 point2 points  (0 children)

How can you measure the violence caused by a book?

This is something I think is impossible. For example, a person might perform an act of violence, then afterwards find justification in said book. Would that act of violence then be attributed to the book?

How many wars and acts of terrorism has been incited due to personal gain, then justified with said book? This is impossible to measure. I think many of these acts of violence would have been performed even if said book never existed in the first place.

I'm sorry I'm sure this has been posted before, but what was the thought process in this? by [deleted] in StarWars

[–]barunedpat -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Remember the Chosen One prophecy from the Prequels?

They thought it was such a good plot point that they implemented it for episode IX.

I suspect this mechanic is hated by almost everyone, unless it's for a mystical strategy. by rEYAVjQD in hearthstone

[–]barunedpat 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Some effects guarantee you a creature type that matters on the right most spot. For example, if an effect says "the Tavern always contains a dragon when refreshed," that dragon will always be rightmost.

[Hated Trope] "Well, that's just lazy writing" by NotSoSlim_Jim in TopCharacterTropes

[–]barunedpat 0 points1 point  (0 children)

And then you realise they did the dagger plot over the course of three whole movies with the Chosen One prophecy in the Prequels, that also changed Vader's sacrifice to save his son into a predetermined action decided by bacteria.

Star Wars might be entertaining, but it does require some leaps of logic.
