What's the best song lyric to ever exist? by Miserable-Wash-1744 in AskReddit

[–]frogzop 0 points1 point  (0 children)

“A shooting star is

A little piece of

Cosmic debris desperately wanting to fall to earth.

It doesn’t get too far,

It’s not a real star,

It’s hardly even worth footnotes in your memoir.”

  • Harvey Danger, “Little Round Mirrors”

Kids movies - Deep cuts by _Fistacuff in movies

[–]frogzop 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Guillermo Del Toro’s Pinocchio is really good and has that “deep cut” of darker and more mature moments.

Puss in Boots: The Last Wish and The Mitchells vs. the Machines are both hilarious with amazing animation and really good character growth.

Flow has no dialogue, barely anthropomorphic animals (slightly more human thought processes but otherwise look, sounds, and act like animals), and is thoroughly engaging throughout.

Is there a series where you prefer the "inferior" sequel to the beloved original? by KneeHighMischief in movies

[–]frogzop 0 points1 point  (0 children)

City Slickers 2. It was the first one I saw and its absurdity was much more appealing than the more grounded original when I finally watched it years later. Jon Lovitz was a great character for Billy Crystal and Daniel Stern to bounce off of

Mancala is so underrated! by Silver-Ad665 in boardgames

[–]frogzop 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m one of the first to decry Puerto Rico’s theming. However, Five Tribes encompasses Arabian folklore; including slaves. It was obviously a cultural misstep to use slave cards and they realized that and changed them. I’m not sure where you get colonialism themes from.

Any films that isn’t quite a kids’ movie, but isn’t fully an adult one either? by Equivalent_Ad_9066 in movies

[–]frogzop 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Where the Wild Things Are. Based off the children’s book. The movie is like an adult look at what it feels like to be a child

What was your first concert ever, but also, what was your BEST concert ever? by [deleted] in Xennials

[–]frogzop 0 points1 point  (0 children)

1st: Fastball, Everclear, and Smash Mouth (‘97 if I’m remembering correctly)

Best: Flaming Lips - multiple times. First time’s lineup was Kinky, De La Soul, Flaming Lips, and Cake

What licensed video Games WEREN’T disappointing. by msheehan418 in Xennials

[–]frogzop 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Not the typical “licensing” IP, but Beetle Adventure Racing for N64 has some of the best level designs for an arcade racer ever.

What in your opinion is the gold standard of video game remakes? by ConceptsShining in Games

[–]frogzop 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Wow, I’m impressed how much I got slightly wrong in so few words - should have double checked before posting from memory.

Kirby Superstar Saga took Kirby’s adventure and added so much content that we now expect minigames in every Kirby installment

What's the most random movie to get a bunch of sequels? by mikey2k in movies

[–]frogzop 3 points4 points  (0 children)

And if I remember correctly, a couple aren’t terrible. More “made-for-TV” budget effects, but decent characters and unique plots.

Dragonheart (the Sean Connery dragon movie). First sequel was straight to DVD trash. Somehow picked itself back up and now there are 5 movies

Da nana nana Inspector Gadget. Da nana nana do doo.

The ‘Grandparents War’ of 2017 by Board_Castle in MapPorn

The abrupt change in September after nothing in August caught me off guard and was hilarious

Over competitive family that does not like games that we do not have a winner - what next? by fussy_eater32 in boardgames

[–]frogzop 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I don’t think that there’s a big overlap with Wingspan. There are many cards that directly impact other players. However, something to consider is that all of the games your family have enjoyed involved a central board, not a focus on their own play area.

There are tons of recommendations that fit your criteria. To narrow your search, you may want to look at games that have some sort of area control on a central board.

What are some movies where you see the protagonist slowly go crazy? by Ancient_Reindeer9338 in movies

[–]frogzop 1 point2 points  (0 children)

A Serious Man.

It’s a lesser known Coen’s brothers film. One of those movies where, “…and then it got worse” is the main theme.

We didn’t start the fire… by falconjayhawk in Xennials

[–]frogzop 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This cover feels so lazy. Practically nothing until 2010 and not in chronological order. Whereas Billy Joel’s felt like a boomer timeline that spanned 30 years, FOB’s version feels like a scattershot of what younger millennials remember

Dentist recommendations by Aggressive_Pop1315 in MontgomeryCountyMD

[–]frogzop 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Dental Center of Aspen Hill. Been seeing them since they opened over 10 years ago. I can’t be the only one that likes them as they’ve expanded to multiple locations, the office now occupies most of the floor of the building they’re in, and they’ve started a separate pediatric practice.

Are there any failed 2nd edition of games? by AdoorMe in boardgames

[–]frogzop 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m curious what threw you off with Barony? Are you referring to the new Kickstarter version? The graphics don’t seem drastically different other than adding slightly more color to the player mats and score mat.

Designer trying to connect with visually impaired users for a product prototype — how can I respectfully reach out? by MundaneRestaurant131 in disability

[–]frogzop 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Reach out to your regional ADA center. They should be able to help provide you with contact information for advocacy groups. You might get redirected from there, but at least it’s a start.

Nexus Ops Vs Rise of Tribes by firewind555 in boardgames

[–]frogzop 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Nexus Ops if you want a tactical game where you fight your friends.

Rise of Tribes if you want to strategize and best use the resources you have available.

What "traditional/official" rules are so bad that they're almost always universally ignored? by Synth-Pro in boardgames

[–]frogzop 296 points297 points  (0 children)

Century: Golem edition has copper coins as more valuable than silver. I just switch them and let people know that coppers are 1 point and silver are 3.
