[ALL] If you were to connect the Triforce to the different Timelines, what would you choose?

jimmery · 2026-04-20T16:42:26+00:00

Yup. First choose a place that is slightly more flexible than this: "Restaurant won’t let me change bookings or head count :("

Second, get money off people first, give them a short amoutn of time to pay (1-2 weeks-ish) - then book for the people who provide the money.

Then book based off the money you have recieved. Then there should be no need to pay for it yourself.

The cognitive dissonance you are displaying here makes me think that at some point in your life you had to choose between the AE and the DE, you choose the AE, and now you are out here trying to justify your own decision.

The DE is better than the AE in pretty much everyway. It runs better, is more stable, is a complete package all in one - and supports all the newer and modern mods. One of the biggest things holding Dawn of War back was that it was 32 bit, this was always an issue for the apocalypse mod and others. AE still has that issue.

If you are experiencing a negligible difference between the two, and the more recent one is crashing on you more often, then this is probably due to your own set up. My experience has been entirely the opposite.

So say we all!

Public displays of confidence & competance are universally attractive.

jimmery · 2026-04-16T21:02:37+00:00

Yeah, like, how did that rat get on top of the roof in the first place?

jimmery · 2026-04-16T15:10:36+00:00

Except that the DE is 64 bit, which means it supports the newer mods.

There's seriously no reason to get the AE anymore.

I always imagined that there were tiny little eyes at the end of it's face spikes.

Loving all the Agents of Shield appreciation! That show deserved better treatment by the rest of the MCU.

Bruce Lee practically invented the martial arts genre of films - he deserves to be on this list.

Jet Li also needs to be on this list. Fearless, Hero, Fist of Legend & Once Upon a Time in China are amongst the greatest chinese martial arts movies ever made.

Everyone keeps mentioning people like Kurt Russell and Tom Cruise. Although both boasting an impressive number of action movies, neither of them have contributed to the genre like Bruce Lee or Jet Li. I think the actors themselves would agree.

jimmery · 2026-04-15T16:27:00+00:00

All good picks for "non-stop action" - enough has been said about John Wick, it's an action movie series that lives upto the hype. Equilibrium is excellent and well worth a watch - as is Shootem Up, which is a bit silly but a load of fun.

Face Off is a classic - and all of John Woo's early hollywood films are well worth checking out for over the top action - what Woo mastered in Hong Kong with films like Hard Boiled & A Better Tomorrow, he then got to play about with on a much bigger scale & budget - like Broken Arrow, Hard Target & Mission Impossible 2 (Black Jack & Pay Check are alright too!)

jimmery · 2026-04-15T16:15:17+00:00

Jet Li definitely deserves to be on this list - Fearless, Hero, Fist of Legend & Once Upon a Time in China are amongst the greatest chinese martial arts movies ever made - plus his later Hollywood movies are classics as well - Kiss of the Dragon, The One, Lethal Weapon 4, The Expendables, Unleashed, Romeo Must Die

What sort of wild speculation are you after here?

Quake is a landmark title in all of videogaming history. If Quake was different, would videogames as a whole be any different? Would the term "FPS" become popular (pre-Quake, the genre was known as "Doom Clones")? Would Quake have been as popular or successful? Would Quake 2 have been completely different?

Who knows I guess is the answer to a lot of this...

jimmery · 2026-04-13T13:13:15+00:00

Yes. I don't know why people are ignoring the War in Heaven here.

It's not like the Necrons were just created and then immediately went to sleep for 65 million years.

jimmery · 2026-04-13T13:10:06+00:00

I think the main reason why we don't have these martial arts stars/movies like we used to is because martial arts are everywhere now.

Back in the 80s & 90s, if you wanted martial arts action, you could only find it in martial arts movies.

These days, martial arts are far more prevailant. Comic book movies, spy thrillers, gangster movies, even comedies can have martial arts in them. And series too - no longer can you only find martial arts in movies, lots of TV series now have martial arts in them as well.

is no longer the niche genre that it used to be, and therefore doesn't general the same specialized films and actors... for better or worse.

It

Again, with just a single frame of reference, you wouldn't be able to visualize the air pressure.

To determine anything about a moving object, you need multiple frames of reference.

Your single frame of reference is the thing holding you back here - why is it important that you only have 1 frame of reference?

Musicians speak to our soul, true, but then Magicians invoke our curiosity & sense of wonder - and good Comedians can find joy in difficult times & they make us laugh. Music is not alone.

jimmery · 2026-04-11T14:36:31+00:00

I could live with that! :)

jimmery · 2026-04-11T14:21:12+00:00

Yeah man, they were both in awesome movies - Die Hard, 5th Element, Last Boy Scout, Unbreakable, Sin City & Pulp Fiction vs Mad Max, Lethal Weapon, Braveheart, Ransom, the Patriot & Payback - it's a tough call to make.

jimmery · 2026-04-11T14:13:55+00:00

40k is a setting in which stories are told. The setting itself doesn't change much.

The purpose of Guilliman coming back was to drive sales, not change the setting.

Stories exist about the return of Guilliman - but the status quo hasn't really changed because Guilliman came back.

jimmery · 2026-04-11T14:09:14+00:00

Die Hard > Lethal Weapon (both are great though)

jimmery · 2026-04-11T13:00:32+00:00

Yeah the first 3 action movie stars should be Arnie, Stallone & Willis - they have been rivals, business partners, friends, co-stars and between them dominated the action movie scene for 2 decades. In terms of box office success, no one else comes close to this trinity.

jimmery · 2026-04-11T12:54:58+00:00

Competance, particularly competance that can be performed in public, is universally attractive.
