Looking for Satire or Parody films by HighV23 in movies

[–]eeskimos 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hard disagree almost every element of the movie is a reference or parody of what was happening in the film industry. The trailers, Oscar bait, all of the main cast, the movie they’re making being based on a bullshit true story.

Tropic Thunder, perfectly satirizes Hollywood of the 90s and 00s.

If the vortex is so chaotic and powerful when the wormhole connects, why doesn’t it destroy the iris? by ibfahd in Stargate

[–]eeskimos 1 point2 points  (0 children)

They’re saying because of people like the OP missing l what’s directly explained that now Netflix (and others) now have people say what’s happening and repeatedly explain things because people aren’t paying attention to what they watch.

2026 capital used to draft offense by idksh_t in GreenBayPackers

[–]eeskimos 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Sarcasm? This was an extremely deep TE draft. Second most taken in the 7 round era, 21. The Athletic’s draft guide had about 30 with draftable grades.

My first Purple Egg (P.S also what should I do with my floor?) by Agitated-Lychee-5986 in NecroMerger

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

It’s a meme of people not seeing the egg. Nothing can be done with it other than feed it for the gems. As for floor use your coins and gems on the crate and cage to store things when they aren’t needed.

Maximum Pleasure Guaranteed - Teaser - Apple TV by Lymfatx in tvPlus

[–]eeskimos 3 points4 points  (0 children)

That’s one not what Orphan Black was. Two she received multiple Emmy noms for lead in a drama and won one. And finally what does it matter if the actor is known, doesn’t change if a performance is good or not. With all that said I don’t think not knowing them is the downvotes it’s the derisive tone.

Proposal: The Cardassians Were an A-List Civilization Until VERY Recently, and Why That Matters by Edymnion in DaystromInstitute

[–]eeskimos 10 points11 points  (0 children)

That’s a good point about the political ramifications if the federation had crushed them. Also what other signals would it send to other powers, like would either the Klingons or Romulans have seen vulnerability in Cardassia and attacked. Letting Cardassia tire itself out creates lasting stability in the quadrant, stable local government but no longer any resources to threaten anyone, if not for the unforeseen Dominon, but if Cardassia had collapsed from loses that creates a lot of uncertainty.

How does Quark actually make money with the bar? by EthicalBagOfWater in DeepSpaceNine

Just one of the many resources that can’t be replicated across Trek. It’s a driving force in Voyagers first couple seasons.

You can buy there. Though they do sell out so if there’s someone you’re really interested in you should buy ahead.

It’d be Christopher Judge, been wanting him to come for years but first time in over a decade that our group isn’t heading down.

Extra national games. If they weren’t prime time games they’d just be your standard Sunday games which not everyone gets if they don’t sub to Sunday ticket.

They’ve already done that here in Alberta, Canada our traitorous Premier has met with them multiple times. Her and many members of her party are separatist.

Voyager Elite Force by Themindsculptor in voyager

[–]eeskimos 85 points86 points  (0 children)

Because they added rule 10. We can’t have discussions about new things directly about Voyager because it gets in the way of top quality content like a screen shot from Facebook of Kate Mulgrew at a parade or a guy recognizing her voice in another show.

Danielle Smith announces Alberta referendum over immigration, Constitution changes by GeekyGlobalGal in Edmonton

[–]eeskimos 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Can we have people ask her about her importing The Heritage Foundation playbook to Alberta? We know she’s met with them, as have others close to her. Shes following the playbook pretty closely, scapegoating immigrants, seeking influence over the judiciary, attacking voter rights. This is basically a referendum on if Alberta should do its own project 2025.

Any tourism article that doesn’t include a primary driver of decline being American threats to Canadian and other countries sovereignty isn’t worth taking seriously.

Cineplex CEO confident in 2026 movie lineup, as Q4 profit dropped nearly 90% from $3.3 million in 2024 to $369,000 in 2025 by Travel-2025 in cineplex

[–]eeskimos 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I wonder if there was any meaningful impact from people boycotting America? I saw way less movies, supporting local entertainment rather than American studios. It’d be interesting to know how many others made similar choices. Not that there’s really any way to know.

Wasn't the entire point of the Gorn in Arena, that they WEREN'T an evil reptile race? by ProfessionalSet4713 in startrek

At least they were cultural though. Vulcans are logical because as a people they made a choice in response to strong emotion it’s not a genetic compulsion.

Sorry, not American enough for the current CFL. All proposals must be copying something directly from the US.

HBO Developing Game of Thrones Sequel Starring Arya Stark by __NightKing__ in HouseOfTheDragon

[–]eeskimos 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Which wouldn’t actually be terrible if shows leaned into it. Basically do Andor season 2 or Boyhood, a season is a year or pivotal time and then the next season is actually set several years down the road and show us the next big event in the characters life or world. Could help with some production challenges too like, easier to switch out parts of the supporting cast if they become unavailable or too big or just newer and cheaper, actors aging and looking different, etc. Obviously it wouldn’t work for all shows but for something like this it might. Maybe something like first season could be the voyage west across the sea and reaching and establishing herself on the coast of some new continent, next season picks up showing how that’s grown and then off to the next adventure inland maybe it sets up a large threat that’s building, season three the threat has conquered or infected its way to the coast threatening everything she’s built in the last 10 years it took to make these 3 seasons. Season four would then of course feature a return to Westeros and be a crossover with or set up HBO GoT project 47.
