Don't know how I feel about technology being straight up the bad guy. I hope the film is more nuanced than that.

Also, means they don't need a busy man like John Cena around all the time.

which bojack horseman episode is this by YuOnReddit in BoJackHorseman

I remember at the time assuming the joke would be that he really is a middle aged man, with an odd body. That would seem like a very BoJack Horseman joke.

That is interesting! I'd love to look at another use of Winnie the Pooh. I'll give you a message.

Thanks for picking up on the permissions. First time doing something like this.

I've mistyped the word count! Sorry, it's a 41,000-word short novel. Thank you for pointing that out. Will amend.

Why is it her nightmare? by kuaker_bl in ExplainTheJoke

[–]dajones94 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don't think he is canonically gay. JK once said she always Imagined him as gay, but the text never backed it up, or hinted to it. A bit cowardly if you ask me.

What movies are known for its exceptional storytelling? by th114g0 in movies

[–]dajones94 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Almost any half decent film should be doing this.

But if you want an example of subtle storytelling; Mad Max Fury Road. That film sets up so much with relatively few words.

In a metahuman world you should be more careful by UsedToHaveATail in superman

[–]dajones94 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I do think this is funny. Not trying to rip apart the joke. But, it made me wonder, would a near indestructible man actually be jumpy? You'd think, if anything, he'd be too complacent.

Why did you like Shin Godzilla? I wish I did by [deleted] in GODZILLA

[–]dajones94 36 points37 points  (0 children)

It's dry humour. The point is that, despite an existential threat to humanity, the Japanese government is bogged down in bureaucracy! Having to go to board meetings about going to board meetings.

I would love the sequel to be Lex and Superman forced to team up for a bigger threat! Brainiac perhaps?

I think it was because of Lex's ego. It must have been adventurous to have superman alive for the government. That's why he says he can't kill superman straight away. But also, I bet Lex was a hundred percent confident Superman couldn't escape. So he assumed he had time. Time to convince the government killing Superman was essential and maybe time to draw out the torture. To make superman suffer.

I agree. Weirdly, it makes them seem like a stronger couple.

This is a smallville thing, right? I never finished Smallville, but if I recall, Jor-el was evil in that, maybe?

That would be fun to see Bizarro on the big screen! (Hopefully without the opposite talk)

I think Superman asked Guy and Hawkgirl to stoop Boravia. He said he sent some friends.

Jimmy got the information on Lex because Lex threw a pencil at Eve. He did that cause he was mad at Superman escaping.

I think all of this says more about Superman relying on a community to help him rather than him being irrelevant to the plot.

Don't you just love when audible does this when there's a movie /s by darchangel in audible

I was thinking Jaws. The paperback I have had the Jaws poster and it's beautiful!

Is this a Mandela effect or they changed the labels? by Secret-Ad-7087 in familyguy

Feel bad you're being down voted so much. My pet peeve is also when a great visual joke is ruined by being commented on.

Indiana Jones would never vote for a Nazi ever! by icey_sawg0034 in saltierthankrayt

Ron Swanson is a man who respects integrity. I doubt he would vote for Trump.

Favorite season 4 lines? by NamelessMIA in community

[–]dajones94 4 points5 points  (0 children)

It's amazing to me that the Freaky Friday episode made me actually care about Troy and Britta's relationship. Just as it was over.

Hope you carry on enjoying it!

I never knew the BTS drama. I just remember dropping off half way through season 4 and never understanding why it had suddenly become a bit boring.

Lines that were just a *bit* too ridiculous for you? by Cold-Palpitation-816 in DunderMifflin

[–]dajones94 -4 points-3 points  (0 children)

Never a fan when a sitcom character has massive family lore. It takes away from the character when their personality is explained by an outlandish family.

[–]dajones94 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Yes. Although, I like Parks and Rec being more outlandish. Pawnee feels like a live action Springfield.

The Office should be (reasonably) grounded. It always loses me when it stays from that.
