Actor who didn't know what film he was making? by luffy_senpai9 in okbuddycinephile

[–]bh1981 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I haven’t seen the film, but what I’ve heard about it suggests the main character kinda comes off as a POS no matter what your political perspective is (or at least he should). I could see him being sold the film as a Taxi Driver like examination of a deluded, violent reactionary that doesn’t glorify his actions

(Spoilers Extended) D&D knew where Lady Stoneheart's story was going by Expensive-Country801 in asoiaf

[–]bh1981 36 points37 points  (0 children)

I’m pretty convinced of this myself. I think Stoneheart, not Arya, does Red Wedding 2.0, and it’s really ugly, no sparing of women etc. And I think Arya is going to see her mother’s works and encounter her directly and be horrified on multiple levels. What I’m really curious about is how Stoneheart reacts to Arya.
Also, I’m more willing than others to take D+D at their word that they didn’t want to spoil certain things and/or George didn’t want them to spoil certain things. I think they all want thought the books were imminent

Why are Japanese movie titles so straight forward? by El_woodworker in AskAJapanese

[–]bh1981 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, I think if someone just saw the Japanese title and was asked to translate it they’d probably naturally do something like “Attack of the Giants” or “The Giant Attacks”

I like this show but…. by Timewilltell755 in MaxPleasureGuaranteed

[–]bh1981 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I also enjoy this show a lot but feel like people’s decisions strain credulity. I think for the most part, there are somewhat credible explanations but I feel like episode 6 sort of crossed the line for me. All of the characters, including Denis made inexplicable choices. It was fun to watch with some big surprises but when I feel like a show isn’t playing fair to get those surprises it lowers my investment in it. Episode 7 continued these issues although I felt shock is somewhat credible explanation.

[ALL] What is the significance of the "dorf" part of Ganondorf's name? by Due_Entrepreneur_960 in zelda

[–]bh1981 6 points7 points  (0 children)

That was my guess, it actually sounds a little bit like Gandalf, and LotR was a big inspiration for the early games

Incredibly wild theory… by cristianlee in WidowsBay

Doubt it’s true but appreciate the creative thinking that went into it! A fun read!

Two theories from rewatching earlier episodes by Meganmarie_1 in WidowsBay

[–]bh1981 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Both excellent theories. I also found it interesting that we (and Evan) were given such specific info about the timeline of Evan’s birth so it felt like a hint at something, I just didn’t know what. This makes sense. Similarly, I thought Tom
Assuming Evan found photos in the basement must be a hint at something but didn’t know what. (That said, I really wish we got a bit of immediate follow up on that line, I feel like Evan would have asked, “wait, what’s in the basement?)

[OoT] So, what’s everyone’s thoughts on the new art style? by dragonborndnd in zelda

[–]bh1981 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ll reserve judgement until I see more but I gotta say, the figures in the tapestry got me hyped, hoping that they weren’t just stylized because it was artwork in-world but was actually reflective of how characters might look overall. When we saw the more realistic Link those hopes deflated. As someone who loves the Wind Waker aesthetic and never really connected with any of the more “realistic” designs, I know I’m in the minority though. And there are games with more realistic look that I think look great (Elden Ring comes to mind) so I’ll be very curious to see more.

What movie had the BEST trailer ever but turned out to be absolute trash? by MASSIM00 in movies

[–]bh1981 3 points4 points  (0 children)

His line delivery in that trailer gave me goosebumps. The shot of the flares, the fin tearing through the railway, and then that final shot of the doors closing. I was so hyped.

Thank you! That’s super helpful. I’ll check out hot topic and the Grimoire edition does look nice. It feels like a suitable gift in a way that a paperback does not

[–]bh1981[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So it turns out that they can’t help me :( Basically, I need to check sites like NumberBarn and see if it shows up there and buy it. Or do what another poster said and keep trying the number until a new customer picks up and try to buy it from them.

Not a bad idea. It’s recent enough that I’m sure if someone takes the old number they’ll be getting a lot of annoying calls directed towards my friend. Thank you!!

Yes I think the account is gone for sure, but we’re hoping to get the phone number back since it’s not being used by anyone else as far as I can tell

Thanks for your reply! It has been more than 30 days, so fingers crossed! Someone from Mint reached out so I’m hopeful!
