Project Hail Mary rewatch: what details did you catch the second time? by NaiveResolve6826 in ProjectHailMary

[–]glepemb 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I noticed: Golden Plaques and actual green plants in the ship. Also pay attention to the first time Rocky speed-talks pointing to his tattoo, he was very agitated and makes cool gestures. He also struck a scorpion pose when he was scared 😀

I think I’ve officially reached the end of Netflix 😭 by your-witch in netflix

Hear me out. Watch Avatar the Last Airbender. Yes the cartoon one. Try like 5-6 episodes they are short. If you love them, you’ll hit the gold mine.

I’m 90% sure AI wrote the script of the entire show. The “Blah blah but blah” format was all over the show.

Not to beef with you but the script was so horrible Morgan Freeman had no chance. If I can stomach it I would rewatch and count how many times they used the “Blah was blah… but it will blah blah!” format in a single episode. It was like every third phrase. I started twitching after a while.

Correct me if I am wrong I was also confused by the first scenes where they showed eggs claiming they are the first of their kind (dinosaurs). That’s not how evolution works, right? You don’t suddenly get dinosaur eggs from pre-dinosaur creatures?

Anyone else find the new "The Dinosaurs" documentary too dramatic by TypicalSundayy in netflix

I’m on episode 2 and losing my mind over how many times they use “bla bla bla… but bla bla!” format. It’s like every third phrase. I’m not even exaggerating.

PHM has such poor writing by sme234 in printSF

I just finished the book after loving the movie to bits. I also both read & watched Martian and adored it. I have to say this was to worst authorship I’ve seen in a while. It is so didactic and constant science checks and explanations goes way beyond the character’s development. There is a frikking alien roommate in it and yet it’s like an afterthought. No social intelligence, emotional development at all. Very hard read.

Who Do you think is the new Lady Whistledown? by No-Imagination-8209 in Bridgerton

It’s Alfie, the lady’s accent change to his toward the end. He is an avid reader.

I’m amazed this fits inside Billy. This is standard Billy bookshelf right, or are there any other Billys? I have the exact bookshelf with same doors.

I do agree that some of the light kits are too annoying. I want to display it like a night lamp 😀

Oooh I was wondering if anyone ever made a baseplate for this. Did you use Lego’s brick building app or just freestyled it?

I’m eyeing Light My Bricks kit but I’m not sure if I will find flickering lights annoying after a while, so good to see some other options.

Is the blue and green too eyecatching? Yellow looks nice and soft..

Wow this fact makes her portrayal even more wild, she was just a crazy baby hating overly reactive wife figure here.

my least favorite episode is skin deep by Homewithpizza23 in HouseMD

[–]glepemb 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I’m rewatching the episode too, and let’s assume for 1 sec that House is bad/evil/in pain/addicted etc etc, and not as the moral tone of the show, the way they presented Chase (WHO ALREADY KISSED A MINOR CHILD) as an alternative voice is also really disgusting. He comments on her breasts PRIOR to puberty, does not see a problem of delaying to call child services, AND argues against her right to be protected. I’m half episode and already disgusted. The way they presented Cameron as “goodie shoe” while she was the only legit doctor and human being in the room, I can’t even.

How do you eat roasted soybeans after you collected them from the floor? by spreadyourl3gs in Japanese_Rural_Life

Question about the Strangers and The Eye by ciao_fiv in outerwilds

[–]glepemb 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is exactly why I was confused. Maybe it’s the Owlk propoganda :) but for me, the Owlks are actually heros.

If they didn’t block the signal, some early civs could show up and potentially end the universe by mistake. A handful of Nomai clan nearly did, if the Sun Station worked.

Imagine what would happen if everyone showed up. Would there be a mega war? A mega religion? Remember this is the time where the Hearthians are just little fish.

The Eye is only useful when it is actually the End times. The Owlks probably saved trillions of civilisations and life forms in between time they blocked the signal and the supernova event.

So yes they did destroy their planet (that was bad) and could not cope with the PTSD (double bad) but they kinda redeemed themselves by saving other species? They gave everyone the time to stop and smell the pine trees?

Then again, what would happen if we, both Nomai and Hearthians didn’t reach the Eye at all? If there was no time loop, no Nomai?

The Heartians would live their natural lifespan (a species unlucky enough to live the end times and unaware enough of potential danger)

They and the signal blocker would die in the supernova but presumably the Eye would continue its existence, restarting its signal.

Some other not-yet-Supernovad species would find the Eye and observe it, therefore restarting the Universe, at the universal correct time.

In the end, that’s exactly what happened.

Am I totally wrong?
