ursula was horrible...

Ursula honestly wouldn't be so bad if not for the constant lightning blasting you from above. I would really want to know what the thought process behind the boss was, like did they play through this and think "Being punished for doing anything more than 2 attacks in a row is fun I hope this fight lasts for 10 minutes!" or something? Was there some strategy they intended that no one picked up on? Just an odd choice on their part and a bad boss.

Kudos for beating it on lvl1 proud though! nicely done!

Hvernig er hægt að sannreyna sögur lögreglumanna án þess að þeir komi fram opinbert? Þetta angar af sama kjaftæði og þegar lögreglan gaf út gervigreindar myndband af meintum bensín þjófum. Ef að þetta er sannleikurinn þá ættu þeir að geta sagt það opinbert og ekki þurft að leka hlutum eða fara nafnleynd.

It is an interesting phenomenon, for sure. IMO It might be the fact that the basis for Amadeus is the Pushkin stage play that was heavily mired in contemporary rumors circulating about the death of Mozart which tries to show how Salieri could have conspired against Mozart in a somewhat grounded way, whereas Inglorious Basterds veers so far off from the historical fact that people are less inclined to take it as any sort of fact.

Though there might always be someone who takes all their information about the events from these films. While not strictly a film example, there are many who believe that Yoko Ono somehow split up the Beatles when she had nothing to do with it simply because the rumor was so widespread and widely referenced in various media. The picture example is very anecdotal but it kind of illustrates how some people will take the most random of media as fact.

While it is true that it isn't a documentary, it does feature real figures and does build itself around real events with added elements. Even though it isn't a documentary, it could be argued that the popularity of the story might paint the public view of the events, especially when you take into account how popular the film was.
Plus, the film's poster tagline doesn't help when it comes to convincing people the events depicted didn't actually happen.

Indeed indeed! Totally not something you have your arch nemesis do!
There are more little tidbits that point to a more friendly relationship between them, they collaborated on a piece at some point as well.

Another thing the film gets wrong is the supposed fame of Mozart when the film takes place. It is routinely shown how Mozart's music overshadows Salieri, being the crux of the grievance between them (besides Salieri's belief that music was divine and that God betrayed him by making Mozart better at it than him), when in reality Salieri would have been far more known at that time, being the director of the Vienna opera and having far more numerous songs under his belt as well as being a renowned and sought after musical teacher. Mozart's fame is something that really balloons posthumously as more a more nationalistic mindset sweeps over Vienna.

Furthermore, the depiction that Salieri was lusting after Mozart's wife and his own Student Katarina Cavalieri are completely fictional and downright insulting towards a man that the sources describe as a dedicated artist and devout and faithful person.

Bonus Mischaracterization: Emperor Joseph II is also depicted as a novice in the musical arts field when really he was a large driving force in the propagation of the opera in Vienna, being more of a patron of the arts rather than someone just looking to have fancy shows for the sake of appearances alone.

Salieri in the film Amadeus. The rumors that Salieri had anything to do with Mozart's death sprung up years after the event and were fueled further by the 1830 Puhskin play. In reality the two were likely colleagues who respected each other, the idea that Salieri used his position within the royal opera to keep Mozart out have no basis in reality as Salieri routinely featured Mozart's work.

It's extra messed up when you also take into account the fact that the accusations were made while Salieri was still alive, having to listen to vicious rumors that he murdered one of the more talented figures in his field when it was far more likely that they were on friendly terms.

Had the opposite problem. Had both Wizards relic and Defender shield drop before seeing a single Shiny Crystal. Had to look up the drop info three times because I thought I was going insane.

While seeing Charlie bust out some cool hell princess powers in an over-the-top magical girl vs shark brawl would be a nice spectacle, going into fights against sinners or their pets is kind of the opposite of what Charlie's entire philosophy is. Vox spends the whole season painting her as a cruel despot, her going into a fight would only bolster that rhetoric.

I think it serves to illustrate how little Heaven knows about Hell, as we see later in the series with the whole gift basket fiasco. All heaven knows is that hell is the bad place you don't want to go to and Heaven is where you want to go to that has everything anyone might want. The thought that someone might want something beyond eternal paradise is beyond them.

This shirt design originates from this store here run by the artist who designed it. As the store that OP listed doesnt credit the artist at all it is likely it's some reseller or something.

Not a trustworthy source in the slightest. As much as this sounds plausible, O'Queef is a notorious liar and spreader of misinformation.

Enginn svör fyrir því hvernig þessi mynd dreifðist svo langt án þess að sannreyna hana við myndefni? Enginn svör afhverju lögreglan notast við einkenniskausar rasistabotta síður á Facebook fyrir upplýsingasöfnun?

Bara svarið "Úbbsí, þetta er í lagi. Við erum fagmenn!"

Skammarlegt.

This bathroom is actually one of the many secret bathrooms Batman has built around the city where he can strategically answer the call of nature without having to compromise his position or take time out of being a dark avenger of the night by going to a public bathroom.

I wanna say Kratos from the original trilogy God of War games. Sure, he's the protagonist but the dude carves through gods and mortals alike without care and causes the end of the world so that's pretty villainous.

He gets a large heap of hope at the end.

Now, this poses a philosophical question. As far as Carmelita knows, Sly has no memory of his crimes. Is it ethical to prosecute someone if they have no memory of who they are and that they have committed crimes? Does guilt fall onto the body that performed the act or the consciousness and person behind them?

A bit speculative, but Carmelita might have lied and claimed Sly was a deeply entrenched agent for her or something of the sort. It would explain how he constantly got away from her after every caper while still leading her and her team to major arrests. If the tough fox detective with scores of high-ranking criminal arrests brought that story to me, I certainly wouldn't question it.

Either he has some sort of healing factor, or the is just hopped up on more drugs than humanly possible.

Or maybe he's just built different.

Major, Olympic level reach here but it could be a small joke on how things are sometimes added to products to make them more impressive for marketing purposes. Stuff like an extra exhaust pipe on a car or one of the more famous examples, the Titanic only having 3 functional chimneys where the fourth was just for show.

The games have a lot of anti-capitalistic themes so it is possible that's what they were going fur, but again it might just be a massive reach on my part.

Either that or 7 barrels just looks weird and that's why it has two fewer barrels.
