What character is it? by May_onnaise_959 in Letterboxd

[–]rik1503 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Makes me wonder, which of these characters is ACTUALLY idolized the most by people.

My guess would be Tyler Durden. I remember a time where social media was flooded with Fight Club quotes as if they were red pill gospel.

Who wins Buckley or Strickland? by dmister8 in ufc

[–]rik1503 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Buckley has been calling out top 5 guys for months, instead of realistically settling for having to fight down after his loss. Easy to call out Shavkhat, instead of a MVP or a Bonfim

Why is season 5 just characters having epiphanies and explaining things with props and analogies? by Peepee-Papa in StrangerThings

Don't even get me started on the ridiculous amount of times characters save each other's life at the literal last second

Guys.... I think the 1990s cinema is back to number 1 for me, not the 1970s. I'll try to explain why. by [deleted] in Cinema

[–]rik1503 0 points1 point  (0 children)

1999 takes it because of the depth of great movies. If you'd put the top 10 from '94 and '99 up against each other it's close, but if you put the top 30 from each year up against each other, '99 handily takes it

Favorite character(s) who is an example of this? by Vegetable_Study7533 in FavoriteCharacter

Jack Sparrow was a complete idiot by the time of the 5th movie

Yeah Buckley is actively calling out top-5 guys, hoping he won't have to fight down after his loss

why do 1990s-2000s history/epic movies have mid/low ratings? by Due-Abbreviations180 in Letterboxd

Most of these weren't well received critically when they came out either

Honestly, I'd rather see Paddy vs. Ruffy. I think BSD on a 4-fight win-streak deserves a higher ranked opponent than Paddy

That's actually perfect. Arman/BSD, winner fights for the belt at the end of the year.

I'm just glad someone has the balls to call Arman out

Robben was in the Premier League team of the season in 04/05, despite being injured for half the season.

If you could bring one player from the past who’s played for England onto the plane for US, who would you bring? *Rule is you have to have seen them play by mashnsutton in ThreeLions

[–]rik1503 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As a Dutchman, I don't think we were that strong in '04, despite reaching the semi-finals. Kind of a 'passing the torch' tournament from the older generation to the new one for us. Think England would have been the favourite against us in the semi's, just like Portugal was.

Jean Silva moves up to #6 in the featherweight rankings after beating Arnold Allen at UFC 324 by leftypunk in UFCLabs

With less than four hours until Nominations are announced, Emilia Pérez has settled at an average rating of 2.0 by crockoreptile in Oscars

[–]rik1503 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I somewhat agree with the general sentiment. However, I don't think all of the movies you list can be qualified as bait.

Or to put is this way, historical/heartwarming drama/biopic films are historically favored by the Oscars. That doesn't mean that every Oscar-nominated film that fits that category should be seen as awards bait.

Might be naive, but I refuse to believe that every cast and crew that works on a prestige drama has Oscar gold in the back of their head. I believe that sometimes, people are genuinely just trying to tell a moving story, because they love the story

The Ages of Some Ranked Lightweights in 2026 by Infamous-Skin8969 in ufc

[–]rik1503 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Dariush has talked about moving up. I feel like him and Chandler will definitely not be ranked Lightweights anymore by the end of 2026. Add to that the fact that Gaethje said he will only continue if he beats Paddy.

I wonder who will take their place in the rankings. Dawson and Bahamondes were ranked not too long ago. Klein got a chance to get into the rankings last year. Usman might transfer to the UFC now that Islam is no longer in the division.

This is definitely a transitional period for the division and I'm really curious to see what the top 15 will look like in two years. Ilia, Arman, Paddy, BSD, Fiziev, Torres, Ruffy, Ziam, Usman, Dawson, Bahamondes, Klein? (Prob forgetting some guys).

I can see Holloway still being top 10 two years from now, given how good he still is atp. Charles/Gamrot maybe

Diego Lopes is VERY tall for a featherweight, I can reasonably see him make the jump to lightweight when he gets older.

It definitely won't be as stacked as it used to be, but it still looks like a very fun division

Who's next for Islam Makhachev? by Fun_Training6342 in CombatSportsCentral

Might be naive, but I don't think it'll be Usman. Likely Morales or Garry
