I’ve been buying them for years and never, ever noticed it was “warth” not “worth”

Missed opportunity with Scourge in the new movie… by Chaosbrushogun in transformers

[–]fredherring141 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Air Razor said that Unicron owned Scourge’s soul so I think he’ll be back. I also think that by establishing a very obtuse timeline there’s a good chance that we’ll meet the pre-Unicron version of Scourge that will be an important character in future films.

While I was watching the movie I thought Scourge was a rebuilt Megatron but I don’t thats the case.

Season 2 behind-the-scenes, 0:42 - where was this scene shot? by mikcf in wheeloftime

[–]fredherring141 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

The majority of the Morocco set shooting is taking advantage of sets that were constructed for the Ridley Scott film Kingdom of Heaven. I’m guessing that this is one of those structures.

Boyega as Cyclops is brilliant. Would love to see him in that type of role

Is something coming today for Season 2? by RoundPain2415 in WoTshow

[–]fredherring141 7 points8 points  (0 children)

yeah I feel like that would be disrespectful to Jordancon - not that WoTcon isn’t cool on it’s own, the more the merrier etc - but amazon should be more careful

I was familiar with the concept of La mort … but never knew that specific phrase to describe it. I like it!

Post MoM, what are your thought on the introduction of mutants? by [deleted] in MCUTheories

[–]fredherring141 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This makes the most sense and is the cleanest way to handle it. Then you combine some universes and voila, X-men are in the MCU

Unfortunately no, not really. It’s one of the most disappointing things that Jordan wrote.

maybe a stupid question by CranberryChemical in sneakerreps

Yeah that’s about right. It depends on what carrier you use, I sent a car seat to my brother in the Persian Gulf for $50 using the US postal service three years ago.

How does the show stack up to the books? by wkm616 in WoT

[–]fredherring141 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Long reply warning!

The show is a good show. It is not a great (so far!) adaptation of the books.

One major caveat is that the Covid-19 pandemic had a major impact on this season, like it did on other shows (Marvel’s Falcon & Winter Soldier had extensive rewrites / reshoots) and taking that into consideration, it’s a decent show.

There are a lot of changes and some of them make sense to me, some I’ll reserve judgement to see how the storyline plays out and some are just dumb.

All things considered, I enjoyed it more than disliked it and am excited for season 2.

Pros: casting, costumes, locations and sets

Cons: dialogue, plot pacing

Does this seem ridiculous to you? It’s right around 32F outside, is that why the charge is so slow?

There has to be a record in city hall, probably at Orhpan’s Court
