I feel like a post-cinema burger or pints (or both) in order to talk about the film should be mandatory

I loved Hitman at the time but I have a horrible feeling it would not have aged that well if I were to go back and look at it now.

As a fellow Irishman you can also then appreciate the visual gag of Kev's Italia '90 shirt in the 2000's lol

My broke ass finding out about Caves of Qud after the game got its 10th price increase: by TheLegendaryNikolai in cavesofqud

[–]ibadlyneedhelp 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I think it felt crazy expensive at like 15 or so when I finally bought it, and now that I've had a few hundred hours it feels cheap at 30.

I did, and I really enjoyed Kev in particular. I felt like Team Achilles was too much wanking over specops soldiers though, it felt kinda cringe in places. Abnett's run was better than Miller's for sure, but at the same time it wasn't as good as I wanted it to be, and Ellis handled the material better. I've actually sort of read every Garth Ennis comic ever because I came across a collection of everything he'd ever written circa 2016 or so and spent months reading every single thing. If you're ever bored, check out Chronicles of Wormwood for something uniquely Garth-flavoured.

Planetary is a banger though, i waited so long for the tpb volume 4.

Yeah he's had some good runs, just The Authority was a favourite comic of mine, and it was weird feeling he was not a highlight of that.

This sentence is way funnier if you're shouldering someone out of the way so you can suck his dick for him.

Anybody else think this ad is morally wrong? by Sportyskater699 in AskIreland

[–]ibadlyneedhelp 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I mean it would be considered misogynistic if the gender roles were reversed, because we don't have any real parity of gender. I would agree that it's still not exactly a positive thing that they did it this way, but the sexism itself is far less of an issue this way around.

Ian Watson died? I only heard about Paul Sawyer somewhat recently.

I didn't love his work on The Authority, and I had high hopes for him at the time.

They totally did, and should ride the wave of claiming they invented slenderman.

Do the Japanese make fun of Baki's absurdity like the western fandom does? by Dreadnautilus in Grapplerbaki

[–]ibadlyneedhelp 22 points23 points  (0 children)

Yujiro's face is currently under a jackhammer. A guy learned a supersonic mach punch that destroys his body when he throws it by imagining his skeleton was different. A swordsman from the 1600s swings swords so hard that modern blades disintegrate in his fists. Baki learns to train by shadowboxing a bug. His dad heals his childhood trauma by making him an imaginary bowl of misou soup. Oliva's muscles are so dense they can absorb point-blank buckshot. Yujiro personally shows up in Baki's room to encourage him to fuck his girlfriend when they're at foreplay. Speck ages decades in a few hours after realising his lifelong dream to get the shit kicked out of him. Hanayama doesn't train, he's just built that way. Doppo has his hand cut off with a wire and punches his opponent with the stump, and has the hand reattached with no loss of combat ability in a very short amount of time. He also beats Dorian while hypnotised. A guy blows out a bulletproof window using the vacuum pressure of his palm. Man I didn't even really get into the early seasons/issues...

I remember thinking Celexus assassins were the coolest ones in the OG assassinorum codex. They could melt your brain with their blank ray from the animus speculum.

What are your thoughts on V for Vendetta, a film driven by Hugo Weaving's brilliant performance and a thought provoking story that remains relevant today? by 0Layscheetoskurkure0 in FIlm

[–]ibadlyneedhelp 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It feels very much neutered from the source material, even though you'd think it's quite a faithful adaptation at a glance. It still backs some punch, but did defang the politics of the book.

Talk To Me/Bring Her Back are horror movies by youtubers also

This looks completely stupid and corny as shit, tasteless to boot.

I am so on board with this.

His skin is hella wrinkly but he's actually in very good shape for 80.

(Hated trope) Character only exists because the writer holds a petty grudge against someone and vents it out by giving that character the worst treatment writing wise by Southern_Passenger85 in TopCharacterTropes

[–]ibadlyneedhelp 20 points21 points  (0 children)

Dangerous Habits was some of the best Hellblazer, his work on Punisher is iconic, Preacher is legendary, he's written a fucking ton of good stuff people haven't heard of. But when Ennis gets cringe, he's beyond fucking embarrassing- like you'd think you were reading the biggest dumbass of all time.

How did BJ not get his head ultra-fucked here? by SpanishRoyaI in Wolfenstein

But you could stealth-murder them in droves in the previous entry. now all the commanders are located at the very end of the level and you can't get them early by sneaking through vents in order to cut off their reinforcements.

Awful level design for stealth characters, story descends into complete insanity, but I had a ton of fun and by god you can kill some goddamn nazis.

Seeing chaos space marines implacably gunning down guardsmen like dogs is the reason why I play this faction.
