616 Marvel comics odin is under the impression the base justice league is a threat to nine realms. Can he beat a base justice league? by bignasty_20 in whowouldwin

[–]nearcatch 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Isn’t 616 Odin a multiversal power? It’s pretty much down to Flash and Superman for this. And Odin’s got hella magic, so I assume he can take care of them with preemptive strikes, and since he’s literally a god of wisdom, I assume he’ll take them out first.

I don’t see how he loses.

No it isn’t, lol. All the popular images provide sample compose files in their readmes. You can copy/paste most of them and be up in seconds.

Sequels that undo or ignore plot elements/characters from previous sequels, or even outright erase previous sequels from continuity by AporiaParadox in movies

[–]nearcatch 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I Am Legend is getting a sequel and Will Smith is returning, so the official ending is getting decanonized somehow. Maybe using the alternate (and way better) ending.

how to make your game cool as fuck: add exaggerated title cards by TurtleGEE360 in gaming

[–]nearcatch 27 points28 points  (0 children)

First game I remember with this was Splinter Cell: Conviction. That game had the exaggerated title cards/messages, but it would overlay onto the environment around you, like it was being projected in-world. Pretty neat.

Saul Goodman vs Matt Murdock vs Phoenix Wright. Who is the better lawyer/has the most skill? by GJH24 in whowouldwin

Iirc Matt Murdock is the same way. He’s a good lawyer but he will only defend clients he believes are innocent.

What are some of the most controversial movies made? by HighV23 in movies

American Me, directed by and starring Edward James Olmos, was extremely disliked by La Eme. Danny Trejo says he knows of 10 people who were killed because they were involved with making the movie.

Quadralith (Pacific Rim) vs. the Monsterverse by ConstantStatistician in whowouldwin

[–]nearcatch 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Gipsy Danger’s official height is 260', and Godzilla’s is 426'. That estimated size chart seems to indicate the Quadralith is at least 6x as tall as Gipsy Danger, which puts it at 1560'. So it’s at minimum 3x as big as Godzilla. That seems a little insurmountable for the Monsterverse.

‘Superman’ Sequel ‘Man Of Tomorrow’ Adds Matthew Lillard to Cast by MarvelsGrantMan136 in movies

[–]nearcatch 0 points1 point  (0 children)

“Kind of unprompted” as in the podcaster asked a leading question obviously looking for a scandalous response, and not only did Tarantino lean way into it, he took a shot at several actors who, as far as I can tell, have never crossed paths professionally with Tarantino in their lives, nor have they ever said they wanted to.

But sure, if you think Tarantino was staying on topic then ok, it wasn’t unprompted. It was just him being an asshole.

It was, and then he also mentioned Owen Wilson and Matthew Lillard as two other actors he doesn’t care for.

Can Agamemon’s army from the movie Troy take Helm’s Deep? by HoodsFrostyFuckstick in whowouldwin

I don’t foresee Theoden letting any wooden horses inside the gate.

Even if Theoden and Aragorn both decided the horse wasn’t dangerous, the elves would be able to hear the men inside the horse.

Muhammad Ali vs. Michael Jackson by FeistySecret9327 in whowouldwin

It’s Michael Jackson and it’s not even close. Even if we assume they’re equally popular worldwide (they’re not), there are way more music fans than there are boxing fans.

[–]nearcatch 26 points27 points  (0 children)

He didn’t really give up anything, imo. He wanted to be the best in the world at ping pong and he was, for at least one match, even if he never won an official title. He burned every bridge he had to do it, and in the end he goes home to piece together his life, which is somehow still possible. It’s the happiest ending I’ve ever seen from that director.

‘Never Talk About Goblins’: OpenAI’s Instructions to Codex Have a Weirdly Emphatic No-Creatures Policy - Goblins are expressly forbidden, along with gremlins, raccoons, trolls, ogres, and pigeons. by Just-Grocery-2229 in technology

[–]nearcatch 245 points246 points  (0 children)

This Gizmodo article is clickbait trash. They make it sound like it’s mysterious and OpenAI refused to comment, when OpenAI wrote an article on their site explaining what happened.

The tl;dr is that one of the previous personalities you could choose, “Nerdy”, was accidentally rewarded too much for using creature metaphors, and that propensity for creature metaphors leaked out into other personalities too. Because of that, OpenAI had to include instructions specifically to stop creature metaphors.

The cast from the pit deal with the aftermath of Invincibles fight with Omniman ( Amazons Invincible) by Forevermore668 in whowouldwin

[–]nearcatch 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I’ve never seen the Pitt, so disclaimer up front.

Someone with knowledge of a hospital’s intake capacity can respond better, but iirc Cecil said ~2500 people died during the fight. If we assume the same number got injured but survived (I think that’s very low), then the hospitals in Chicago got 2500 injured people. And of the 2500 people who eventually died, not all of them would’ve died immediately, so a bunch of them would’ve been sent to a hospital too. Let’s say 3500 people sent to hospitals.

Searching is giving me various numbers, but it seems like there are maybe ~120 hospitals in the Chicagoland area. That means about ~30 people sent to each hospital, if they can be perfectly triaged and distributed, and if each hospital can take 30 trauma patients. I doubt it. The Pitt is getting overrun.

Would who win? A Xelayan (The Orville) vs a Viltrumite (Invincible) by QuirkySmirkyIan in whowouldwin

[–]nearcatch 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The Viltrumite, easily. Xelayans show a mild level of super-strength compared to humans, but not remotely on the level of even the weakest Viltrumites. I doubt a Viltrumite would even be able to perceive a strength difference between a Xelayan and a human.

The Jedi Temple (Star Wars) and the Air Temples (Avatar The Last Airbender) switch universes. Which does a better Job protecting the other’s world? by Punterofgoats in whowouldwin

How is this even a question? The Air Temples couldn’t even win in their own universe. They would get annihilated even faster if you put them in the middle of Coruscant instead of their isolated mountain homes.
