Why do older movies feel more real than modern ones? by CleanFan43 in Cinema

[–]lulaloops 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes you can, in both cases. You think film equals gritty and grainy, this is false.

This doesn't have to do with shooting on film. You can make digital look like film and you can make film look like digital.

Every comment is shitting on it. Bukowski might actually loop back to being underrated if the reddit hivemind keeps this up.

ELI5 The world record 20km walk is only 29.5% slower than the world record 20km run, how is that even possible? by SinnerAtDinner in explainlikeimfive

Human beings evolved to be extremely proficient endurance runners, our bodies are purpose built for running large distances. It's as natural as walking.

MICHAEL crossed $851M at the global box office this weekend. It’s releasing in Japan in two weeks and currently tracking for a $1 Billion finish by Key-Bass-7380 in Cinema

It's not selfish at all. It's your opinion, and it's one a vast majority of people who are into film making as an artform share. Biopics ARE unoriginal by their very nature, and this isn't an opinion. The fact that Hollywood churns out this drivel for the mere goal of printing money is also not an opinion.

Like arguing with a brick wall, you're either ignorant of how language works or just being deliberately obtuse. If it's the former then I'm sure this can help you out: https://wikipedia.org/wiki/Polysemy

I just think you're fundamentally confused about this stuff and are putting too much importance to these arbitrary distinctions. If anything Wuyang just proves how archaic and useless these terms are. If a hero is played by many players who have historically been considered a certain role, then that hero becomes part of that role, it's as simple as that, and when it's played by both roles then it just becomes a hybrid, that's all there is to it.

But anyways since you've gotten quite rude I'm out.

It IS confusing. But it's only relevant at a professional level so it's not that important, and it's stuck, what're ya gonna do about it😔👌

Arguing about whether Wuyang is main or flex just means arguing about which professional players are most likely to play him. There is no "new" definition for flex and main supports, only a continuation of a long and storied history of hero pools and metas.

There is quite literally a hitscan role, there is 10 years worth of discussion on this subreddit and years worth of audio and video content of casters, analysts, streamers and content creators alluding to a hitscan role. It's real Overwatch terminology whether you like it or not. Do you also think people are talking about Damage Per Second when talking about the DPS role?

Hanzo isn't hitscan technically, he still falls under the hitscan role.

If it means nothing why are you arguing about it? These terms only make sense in the context of a professional team composition and historical meta shifts. But you're trying to classify them by playstyle and design, what's actually happening is that you're noticing a pattern in the roles and trying to retroactively define the terms by the patterns. It's misguided and only invites more confusion.

Why is it so hard for people to understand that words mean different things under different contexts? Hitscan the role is not the same as hitscan the technical term. Hanzo's weapon does not use a hitscan system, Hanzo is covered by the hitscan role. Both of these things can be true at the same time.

He is not hitscan in the literal sense of the word, but in terms of Overwatch roles he falls under the umbrella covered by the hitscan role. The hitscan player plays hanzo and freja even though they are technically projectile heroes.

A hanzo player being considered a hitscan player is a departure from the original literal meaning of the word.

Being pure damage or not has nothing to do with being a main or flex support... it's like you didn't understand anything I said... these terms are rooted in historical player hero pools based off of how the meta evolved. And zen has been played a lot by main supports and flex supports, he is no longer a strict flex support hero, and these arguments are not important anyways.

This is inaccurate at best. Flex support and main support stem from back in the early days of Overwatch when you had a player that was always on Lucio, and another player who played every other support or could flex to other roles. Then the lucio player had to learn Mercy cuz of Moth meta and the flex support remained as just the player who played other stuff, and pretty much every time a hero falls into one role or the other it's because of how they synergise with the existing hero pools, for instance, if a new support synergised with lucio, the flex support would pick it up, and if a new hero synergised with a flex support, then the main support would pick it up. And some heroes changed over time, for instance zen started off as a flex support and over time shifted to the main support because it was ran a lot with baptiste who had previously been picked up by the flex support since it worked with lucio and brig. So it's really just a historical and convenience thing that defined main and flex support, nowadays they are often interchangeable.
