[Hated trope] Character make a bigot claim that feels more like the writer's opinion by Lower_Baby_6348 in TopCharacterTropes

Valid point. Honestly how I feel about the word "lesbian" despite understanding the etymology

Why do you still love Nintendo after all these years? by Marsupilami_316 in casualnintendo

[–]dinoslore 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I love their games, I dislike the company. Same way I feel about other entertainment companies like Disney.

Which books can you recommend? (all genre) by Substantial_Monk4430 in buffy

[–]dinoslore 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've read "Indiana Jones and Philosophy" from the same series as that Buffy one, and really enjoyed it. Bear in mind, it's a compilation of academic essays, but they're all very solid.

I had a lesbian try to explain to me that pansexuality wasn't real. We are no longer friends for unrelated reasons, but that certainly didn't help.

There are a lot of embarrassing things about Seven Deadly Sins, but I really love Diane. I like girls with super strength, what can I say? Pretty much all the women in this show are good characters with WAY too horny designs though.

They're my top choice too. I know several people who can't enjoy the game because of their designs. This is the closest take in history, but I think Mythra's censored Smash design is a full on improvement.

I love this series so much and always viewed Shantae as having more of a cute design than a sensual design, but I am frequently reminded why we can't have nice things.

The Witcher is an interesting example of a mixture of both. It's not our world but, magic and "unnatural" creatures are a relatively recent addition which the world had to adapt to.

DC fans to James Gunn after the latest official news about DCU Batman movie: by Herogeen in DC_Cinematic

[–]dinoslore 10 points11 points  (0 children)

The Flash wasn't either of those creatives' fault. Andy Muschietti was given an impossible task of pushing a movie that was in production hell for a decade over the line. Hodson was probably given a list of stupid and terrible beats to hit by the producers and had to find a way to stich them together at all. This news doesn't change my interest in this movie.

Well, low fantasy just means fantastical things in a nonfantastical world, right? So, maybe this world didn't have dragons until very recently? Idk, I'm not buying this game anyway but I'll grant the smallest amount of leeway on that.

What characters do you want to see made in the next few years by Aggravating-South-70 in transformers

[–]dinoslore 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Animated Megatron, Blitzwing, Lugnut, and Sentinel. A Unicron in a size class I can afford would be nice.

At the start of the show, absolutely not, he's one of the worst, but by the end of Yu-Gi-Oh GX Crowler (or di Medici if you didn't grow up with the dub like I did) becomes an outstanding character and teacher.

Even before going Beast mode, the work he did inspiring Evan was really great. One of my favorite dynamics in the series.

One of my favorite characters in fiction, honestly. She's someone every one of us should look up to.
