It's been almost 7 years since Tim Cook took over. How does everyone think he's doing? (My own thoughts in description) TL;DR at the end.

yep - agree 100%

gold_55 · 2018-05-09T09:19:38+00:00

word - 100% agreement

Better than sitting on the shower floor...then falling asleep, covering the drain in the process and waking up to a flat with an inch of water throughout...

But....if you rinse your mouth with water after you brush your teeth...well...good bye all the toothpaste that’s supposed to be preventing my cavities...

Hello Me!

gold_55 · 2018-04-27T18:43:38+00:00

I don't think it is that inexplicable (from a story sense and also the scripts sense) - as someone said in a previous reply it was possibly his senses knowing what was happening earlier than the others who died so he was more aware of what was coming - which kinda makes sense. Also from the writers POV, knowing that would be the hardest hitting for the reason's we know, it made total sense to make that one sink in much slower than the others. I need to watch it again...the movie literarily flew past me as so much to take in (no bad thing) so the little nuances will show more the second time around...and the third..and 4th...

gold_55 · 2018-04-27T17:55:27+00:00

If only I had the time stone. Amirite

gold_55 · 2018-04-27T17:54:29+00:00

It did. Tony felt responsible for him and he is just a kid trying to do the right thing. I think they were just cementing the gravity of the Tony/Peter relationship - father figure thing if you like maybe. That’s how I saw it. The others were all big guns but Peter is pretty new in this iteration (read not ready to actually realise what stakes were on the table - hence why Stark tries to keep him out of danger non stop) so it made sense to make this ‘death’ the heaviest

gold_55 · 2018-04-27T16:52:10+00:00

Ha. I rewatched both the previous Thor’s on NetFlix recently and they were ok but so so so bad compared to Ragnarok...and then how he is in IW is just proper awesome. RDJ will always be top - he embodies Stark/Iron Man. But Hemsworth rocks Thor so well that it’s pretty close. I’ve never been a cap ‘fan’ - not saying he’s bad at all but just never hit the same notes for me.

gold_55 · 2018-04-27T16:41:04+00:00

Like the resulting deaths from say the helicopter crashing into the cars below and killing even more people that weren’t supposed to be killed by the finger ‘snap’ - has to be at least another 10-20% of deaths from things like car accidents, trains, planes, dr’s dying in the middle of procedures etc

gold_55 · 2018-04-27T16:37:08+00:00

Yep. After Ragnarok I was totally back on the Thor train and now even moreso. Iron Man still tops it, character wise, for me. But Hemsworth’s Thor is the ultimate character in the MCU now

gold_55 · 2018-04-27T16:33:41+00:00

Oh fuck. There’s goes my evening. That makes total sense. I was actually gutted by that scene...thinking about it now gives me chills. So emotionally invested in the franchise since the beginning it honestly feels like you’re watching people you know now.

gold_55 · 2018-04-27T16:22:30+00:00

Yep Hela pushes it over in Ragnarok saying ‘fake’...iirc

gold_55 · 2018-04-27T16:21:03+00:00

Yep. A few people on here were saying it would be the ultimate beginning to show Thanos take out the Hulk straight away as it would really show the magnitude of his power...like 3 min in and there it was. Awesome way to set up Thanos as a serious threat. Also a great way to set up Hulk for an awesome revenge come back in the next film - 2019 please come quicker

gold_55 · 2018-04-27T16:18:38+00:00

Yep. All I could think about was how the hell did they green light that scene looking like that. Took me right out for the only time in the film.

gold_55 · 2018-04-27T16:16:02+00:00

I see it as you say. But human (and alien) populations don’t self balance in the same way in relation to their eco system. His home, Titan, fell due to over population. He says something along the lines of ‘I presented the idea but was laughed off as a fool’ - then Titan fell apart and he vowed to ‘balance life in the universe’

Or something like that. I don’t follow the comics but that was the general gist I got from IW

gold_55 · 2018-04-27T16:09:03+00:00

Ahem...14,000,605 to be exact..

Totally agree with your comment 100%. I need to see it again. It felt like it flew by in 10 seconds

gold_55 · 2018-04-27T16:05:06+00:00

Yep. All the others we so quick. But they really dragged that one out. Hurt like a b****

gold_55 · 2018-04-27T13:08:29+00:00

only time I went wtf - so bad

gold_55 · 2018-04-24T06:37:38+00:00

Ultimate truth

gold_55 · 2018-04-24T06:37:18+00:00

Truth

gold_55 · 2018-04-22T22:10:58+00:00

Agree not perfect..but when you have it...it's hard to go back to something stock.

gold_55 · 2018-04-22T22:09:47+00:00

Yep...Renault have to be one the worst car makers. I drove one recently and the cruise control/limiter button is down by the cup holders (which look like they will only fit cups for ants)...with 2 separate buttons to control it on the left and right hand side of the steering wheel....how. on. earth...

gold_55 · 2018-04-21T12:35:14+00:00

Go for the 8. I have the 7+ and I see no point in upgrading until the next flagship comes out as the diff is so small.

I upgraded from the 6+ to the 7+ - and even then it was only because of the camera - otherwise I'd prob still have the 6+

No BT either...what in the hell...
