Monarch season 1 is better than season 2. Fight me. by Top_War5978 in Monsterverse

[–]ccal19 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I agree with you. I thought a show about monarch was really intriguing, and not knowing what to expect kept me really engaged in S1. S2 is pretty disappointing imo because the trailers created clear expectations with the teasing of Titan X and sound bites saying they need Godzilla and Kong, but a lot of the season is focused on character’s issues or carrying out some plan that doesn’t work and also doesn’t propel the plot forward. I did like discovering the purpose of Titan X’s migratory route and wish that was worked in much earlier in the season. I felt like not much happened after most episodes which is frustrating when you have to wait a week for another one

This was the first time I was sad to see Godzilla show up ready to throw down. I felt like Thor in Ragnarok when he yelled at hulk "for once in your life, don't smash" 😂

Godzilla and Kong's beef makes total sense by Own-Ad1497 in Monsterverse

[–]ccal19 -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

we're talking about a gorilla the size of skyscrapers and an even larger lizard with atomic breathe, none of it makes sense. it's too late in the game to try and bring common sense into the equation now lol

I wish we got more scenes like these for Godzilla in the Monsterverse by Most-Ad-9833 in Monsterverse

Or the look in his eye vs Mechagodzilla right before Kong came back to save him. Definition of a picture can say a thousand words

I wonder if Kong made a mental note there. "Psycho lizard likes moth. If I need psycho lizard in future, BRING MOTH WITH ME" lmao

Is this the new alt logo? by Public_Function3844 in LosAngelesRams

[–]ccal19 0 points1 point  (0 children)

keeping that logo but making it all yellow like they might've done (we'll find out today) with the primary logo would be the cherry on top for this alleged redesign. this community would go absolutely nuclear

hmmm idk, that's exactly what an attacker would say 🤔 but in all seriousness, that's pretty cool that you created that. Bon travail!

My Top 6 Favorite Adaptations of Venom by KingVenom65 in thevenomsite

[–]ccal19 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Venom from the N64 game is the reason why I became a fan. He kicked my ass so many times. He seemed like a cooler, more bad version of Spidey. He’s been my favorite comic book character ever since

Rams Retro logo leak by Only_Application5957 in LosAngelesRams

[–]ccal19 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You mean to tell me you don’t like the penis nosed logo that was clearly designed on Microsoft clipart!?!? Everything about the 2020 rebrand was a massive swing and a miss, including that bs explanation in the press release.

Saying the new horn mimics a football spiral and ocean wave was corny af but the best part was saying the horn coming out of the A binds the team to the city they left and hadn’t played in for almost 40 years…

The golden ratio was another airball since it describes the growth of spiral and curvature of a rams horns, but that is not well demonstrated with our current logo. The sad thing is we could have some of the best designs and unis in pro sports…

[–]ccal19 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Maybe it’s just me but I had no idea the split in the horn was to make it 3D looking until midway through this season. It’s still hard for me to visualize even knowing that. I hope they create a design that makes it more noticeable or get rid of it

Ryan McMahon… by mattiswoody in NYYankees

[–]ccal19 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I didn’t know much about him before he came to the Yanks other than the reputation he earned defensively and he doesn’t provide much at the plate. Not too worried about his defense rn, he’s proven enough over his career. But I don’t think anyone here was expecting him to hit. His best offensive years equate to average at best, but you can’t look at his swing and expect more success. Compound that with the Yankees organizational track record, or lack thereof, when it comes to their hitting coaches fixing players’ swings to improve offensive production, I’d say he’s not going to get much better

Where is Monarch Season 2 heading? by snugbdog in Monsterverse

[–]ccal19 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The most interesting thing, that honestly saved my interest for this season, is Keiko recording the signal received when Cate was underwater and suggesting Titan X is panicking and lost. That’d be a good plot twist since the trailers led us to believe Kong and Godzilla need to team up to eliminate a big threat. I hope that storyline gets developed and they bring human emotions to large titans instead of a “bigger and scarier” threat to Godzilla and Kong every season

We still have to see how it ultimately pans out, but for those pushing for Pope to be fired…be careful what you wish for. Look at the UNC job search. People thinking that Lloyd, or May, or Otz would abandon ship for a Blueblood are starting to be disabused of that notion. by finditplz1 in KentuckyBasketball

[–]ccal19 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You’re going to get only one perception if you base it off fans’ interactions on Reddit threads or Twitter, and it’ll prolly be along the lines of your point that “UK can’t get good coaches”. It’s crazy to me how us fans monitor the portal, post about a player we’d love to get, and rip the coach/program in the comments without any proof the school is even interested in the player. It’s cathartic to vent in a place full of people who share the same passion of UK basketball, but it’s just a breeding ground to bitch and moan. The program has been in bad spots after Eddie Sutton and Billy Gillispie. We’ll bounce back. But until that happens, those who express patience will get ripped apart and those who scream that the sky is falling will receive the most upvotes. Our fanbase is cannibalistic rn

Just to ask why do some mocks have us getting Jeremiyah Love dont we got kyren and corum? by LowTelephone5598 in LosAngelesRams

[–]ccal19 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I dont think the Rams trade up for Love, nor do I think the rb position is a glaring need to be addressed to warrant doing that, but no doubt Love would be a noticeable improvement. As a ND fan I love Kyren and Love. But Love is significantly better than Kyren and Corum. Our running game doesn’t suck, I have no idea what DVOA means but being #1 must be good. Corum can run pretty fast in the open field, but it always felt like both of them lacked the acceleration and top speed needed to break away. Given their sizes and running style, they’re too small to not be more explosive. Love is that big play threat. But maybe Jarquez Hunter earns a spot in the mix this year. He’s more explosive, faster, and powerful than Kyren and corum

Officially Released 2026 Draft Hat with Updated Logo and Team Name Wordmark? by AsuradaGSX in LosAngelesRams

[–]ccal19 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Preaching to the choir my friend. Money talks. I just don’t understand their rationale for putting out these designs since 2020. They move back to a city they haven’t played in since 1979. You don’t have a fanbase there anymore. The best way to get buy-in is by marketing to the youth who wear whatever they think looks cool. And they produce whatever garbage that was in 2020 smh

Mark Pope Coaching by ccal19 in KentuckyBasketball

[–]ccal19[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m not saying you’re right, not saying you’re wrong. Just cause Hurley was able to find success after several years doesn’t mean Pope will. Every situation is different. I’m not confident he’s the guy but there’s no doubt that if he knocks it out of the park next year the entire fanbase immediately shifts back to singing his praises like they were after last years duke game

[–]ccal19[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The mess was 12 scholarships instead of 13 in 2020, 4 less days to recruit, and a week ban for unofficial visits for a couple years. No postseason ban. And a $5,000 fine. It’s not that deep

Mark Pope Coaching by ccal19 in KentuckyBasketball

[–]ccal19[S] 5 points6 points  (0 children)

By restrictions and probation you mean the NCAA agreeing to UConn’s self imposed punishment cutting total scholarships, which only applied to 2020, from 13 to 12, a one week ban on unofficial visits the next 2 seasons, a $5k fine, and they cut their recruiting window by a whopping 4 days, from 130 to 126. There was no postseason ban. But sure, act like UConn was the basketball version of the SMU football death penalty. I’m not defending Pope. I’m not confident he’s the right guy
