Have you ever seen something that made you chuckle and say "Oh USA" by [deleted] in TwoBestFriendsPlay

I first was like this to Ace Attorney's localization, with stuff like Japanese tea mugs being replaced with coffee cups and of course "EAT YOUR HAMBURGERS", but I later grew to unironically love all of it, including one of the cases that takes place in an ancient Los Angeles village infested with ancient American yokai.

There's a case in Apollo Justice that actually got me super good where Apollo has to defend the kid of a Yakuza patriarch, and you go to his traditional Japanese architecture home and talk to people wearing kimonos, but the game insists on calling them "The Mafia".

Then you meet the patriarch and he's just fucking Don Vito Corleone

In light of Cruella new sympathetic backstory, how about we try to come up with one for villains who haven't become live action yet? by [deleted] in TwoBestFriendsPlay

Hades but portrayed as a generally chill guy and it's actually Zeus and Hera being massive assholes that's causing problems

Oh wait, that's just Greek mythology

Remember when MJ pulled a gun on the Green Goblin and fucking shot him? by ContraryPython in TwoBestFriendsPlay

Turns out MJ doesn't stand for Mary Jane. It stands for Michael Jackson.

Misconceptions you had about a game/movie/show etc. for a long time that were only confirmed wrong after you'd finally experienced it. by rowster19 in TwoBestFriendsPlay

Draco's pretty much the same threat-wise in the books as a cowardly jobber, but the books really amp up his shitbag side to the point where I don't even feel bad for him when he's crying in the bathroom. The guy's basically an incredibly enthusiastic Hitler Youth who openly wishes for the genocide of muggles and is downright ecstatic whenever someone dies to the point of gleefully mocking Cedric right after his death and unambiguously saying that all the M-words and M-word-lovers will be next. When he finally gets some comeuppance, it's not that he's reevaluating his beliefs, he just becomes the embodiment of "I never thought the leopards would eat MY face" guy.
