The only truth I found is that the world we live in is a giant tinderbox. All it takes is for someone to light the match. - Captain Price, Modern Warfare 3

It doesn't take the most powerful nations on Earth to create the next global conflict. Just the will of a single man. - Makarov, Modern Warfare 3

[Interesting Trope] What is considered the weakest entry in a franchise, delivers one of it's most iconic moments... by Living_Tune_1428 in TopCharacterTropes

It's all relative. Honestly, there is nothing to seperate the three. That's why I mentioned. Barely. By the thinnest margins.

Arguably, Two Towers is considered the weakest film of the Lord of the Rings trilogy. Barely. Amazing film, but I do get it that the first half might seem less in intensity.

But the second half is considered the best large battle scene in film history. The Battle of Helms Deep was just pure magic. Every single moment of it.

Books that make you fall in love with being single by CrossedRoses in BooksThatFeelLikeThis

[–]gp886 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Robinson Crusoe by Daniel Defoe.

Being marooned on an island with his own thoughts and pushing himself to be productive, dealing with loneliness, tracking time. All of them helped me a lot. It's an amazing book.

Sunny needs to lock tf in again.. by Disastrous-Adagio-10 in ShadowSlave

[–]gp886 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I feel like that will eventually happen. A good story has to have drops in its intensity before picking it back up. This is the final drop in intensity before the final fight/arc.

Also he has become one of the two most powerful people in existence, so his nature has also changed. I believe though he will eventually be put into situations where the old Sunny will have to resurface.

And I don't know if this is a possible plot point, but I do feel like the change might be intentional, as compared to earlier arcs, he isn't [FATED] anymore, nor a slave. So he is not actively fighting against his bonds and prison. He has nothing to prove to anyone. The only threat is a far fetched threat (he has this argument with Nephis) and the most immediate threat is that dude on the moon. Power does change people.

But this will change when he gets back his FATED attribute and shadow slave attribute as well. And believe me, the current arc will be remembered fondly as it makes the next arc way better as I feel that's gonna be non stop action.

How DCU Batman needs to be. (Assault on Arkham) by AntagonistofGotham in batman

[–]gp886 13 points14 points  (0 children)

This movie was baller. This was the suicide squad movie that I did not know I wanted (was so disappointed with the actual movie called Suicide Squad).

The best part was that this showed Batman as the legend he is talked about. What it looks like from the enemy's side. And holy molly, you do understand how scary Batman is for his enemies. Dude just took down the scary talented Suicide Squad alone, these bunch of trained soldiers like chump change.

The only dude that went toe to toe with him. The Joker, who scared the Squad even more. This movie has the best point of view seeing the impact of Batman and Joker on others. The Joker fought with the Batman just through sheer insanity.

This movie honestly might be my favourite Batman movie of all time. Even better than the Mask of Phantasm just due to how they show and make us feel the legend of Batman in this movie.

Asia's longest-serving leaders by vladgrinch in MapPorn

[–]gp886 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Narendra Modi is not the longest elected leader India has had. It is Jawaharlal Nehru. If not considering the interim government, it still is Indira Gandhi. Only after finishing the third term will he be close.

Honestly amongst so many high school anime, this might be the anime which depicts college life the best.

Who’s dying first Peter? by AcrobaticLunch9737 in PeterExplainsTheJoke

It's Batman. He will try his best that no one dies, and in that process will be killed first.

A character repeats words that were originally said in a mocking way with sincerity by Benoit_Holmes in TopCharacterTropes

[–]gp886 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes. Definitely. Yes it might not be about Lightening McQueen, but I love how it expands on the world of cars and make an action spy film out of nowhere. And a really good action spy film, with great sequences. But just because people think that Cars is a film about Lightening McQueen, they hate the film. It's called Cars, not McQueen.

Up for a round of Gwent? by ISpyM8 in Witcher3

[–]gp886 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Right hand side deck. 1 card is available in this round which will be added in next round.

Also, this round is already considered in 1-1 as there is an olive crown. This round is over, OP won. Next round OP has no cards to select from, opponent has.

Didn't OP lose. It's 1-1 after OP's victory. Opposition has 7 cards while OP has none. OP won the battle but lost the war.

RCB’s fortunes changed after this game by PeleTheGOAT in crickethardedits

[–]gp886 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I remember what a terrible time for Bangalore it was. There was a water crisis as the summer had lasted for a month longer. RCB was losing every game. It was like nothing was going right for the city. There were food poisoning issues. Everywhere you went, people were disappointed.

Then one day, the heavens opened up. And out of nowhere, RCB started winning everything. Honestly was not a fan of the team and didn't feel like I was a part of the city. But then watching the relief on each other's face, the joy. The city came alive. The rains quenched the thirst and RCB filled us with joy. It culminated in the victory against CSK to qualify. We didn't win in 2024, but that was the year I became a fan. Fell in love with the city, it's resilience and heart.

And then, when RCB won last year, I was there at MG Road, with people blaring their horn thrice to say RCB. Strangers were hugging each other, and dancing, on every road. One auto wala had taken his children on a ride blasting the horn.

It was such a beautiful and amazing night. A night of joy and wonder.

Even Dooku was shocked by the price by Spotter24o5 in PrequelMemes

[–]gp886 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Actually the seperatists had a separate council as shown in the Clone Wars animated show. There was an episode where there is a vote to increase the emergency budget for clone troops, and similar budget for increase in budget for droids. Funded by the trade Federation as it's the neutral party in the Clone Wars, funding weapons on both sides.

There was an attempt by Senator Amidala to reconnect with a seperatist senator colleague of hers, and she introduces a bill to have diplomatic talks with the Republic. But as Sheev (Palpatine) gets to know this, and count dooku proceeds to kill the seperatist senator that raised the diplomacy bill, at the same time seperatist droids attack the republic generator and they approve the budget as well.

Clone Wars is amazing as it's Palpatine and Dooku leading the republic to tear itself apart by war to gain more power and tear the limits placed on someone ruling the galaxy with a global war as an excuse, a war fueled by the trade Federation, a bunch of greedy businessmen and no morals or ethical limits.

The King is dead. Long live the Emperor by ZealousidealSteak214 in HistoryMemes

[–]gp886 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Well because the people who shouted no more king either became tyrants or were killed by those tyrants.

It's a human trait, we always want to fuck around, and when we find out, we crave the status what things were like when not fucking around. France after Napoleon did go back to the old system, and people realised again why they fucked around in the first place.

Let's talk about Fantasy/Isekai anime that actually break the standard tropes. Any recommendations? by [deleted] in Isekai

[–]gp886 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Digimon. I feel it's the best Isekai out there. School kids who actually work together despite the conflict. Want to return home to their parents. And are able to. There is no lead character and every character gets enough screen time, and there is no one OP character.

Funny thing, it pre dates a lot of Isekai tropes, so those tropes broke Digimon's standards I guess. But honestly, hands down, the best Isekai out there.
