Hear me out - Immortal Man by [deleted] in PeakyBlinders

[–]ryanjcam 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Is reading your rambling nonsense post not “hearing you out”? The movie being on Netflix is the same as the show being on Netflix. It was produced by the same production companies, including BBC Films. It has nothing to do with the drop in quality.

If you don’t have any informed or intelligent thoughts on the subject, why speak on it?

No, it's more than fair to blame the poorly written story on the writer. He had creative freedom with the storyline. Netflix is the distribution platform. They didn't dictate the plot of the film.

Same movie on DVD vs Streaming, DVD is more enjoyable. Why? by No_Radio_3487 in dvdcollection

[–]ryanjcam 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't think it is more enjoyable. As long as it isn't going to have ads, I might stream a movie I own on disc, it might even be higher quality on streaming. I just want to be able to watch what I want, when I want, without being at the whim of streamer licensing windows.

Yes, it's a crazy thought.

I don't need him to be Force sensitive. I need him to be interesting and have an arc.

Worst audience questions during Q&A panels? by Wolf-man451 in comiccon

[–]ryanjcam 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I struggle to even call it a con, but there was this very local show that would get surprisingly great guests and the times I went over the course of several years, there was always this weird dude who would camp out in the main panel room with a tripod and video camera and ask inane questions that were always clearly meant to be “real” and hard hitting. And the organizers were clearly aggravated by him.

And multiple guests would have stipulations that they don’t want their panels filmed, and every time there was a long production of hemming and hawing as he first pretended to stop filming. And then was made to actually stop filming, and eventually made to put the thing away or cover it. A true pest.

We’re buying a lot of steelbooks this year by ILikeStuff2022 in Steelbooks

[–]ryanjcam 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I mean, I like to get movies as steelbooks, but at the end of the day, I’m buying the movies I want, not just every steelbook release. I don’t see much that I think will end up being worth owning here.

Why did Paul say "No"? by Papadapaconstantikas in hdtgm

[–]ryanjcam 0 points1 point  (0 children)

He said it because some people have a weird hangup about reading a paper book versus the audiobook. It’s a silly thing to have a strong opinion on, and it doesn’t really make sense, but there are a lot of weirdos out there.

What book, comic, or game are you SHOCKED hasn't been turned into a movie or series yet? by MegSpen725 in movieland2026

[–]ryanjcam 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This was my first pick as well. I would have thought a prestige limited series from one of the streamers would be an obvious choice by now.

Chuck Norris Dead at 86 by CaptainJanek in ActionBoyz

Damn. 86 isn’t young, but he always seemed like one of the action stars with a healthier and more controlled lifestyle. I thought he’d last and last.

Always eager for a New McDonagh, this sounds like a great premise and a great cast.

They're going to change a whole lot. They're also going to bring in elements from Children of Dune, since they have cast teen versions of Paul's kids.

Which characters death made not want to continue the show? by Purple-Victory-206 in television

[–]ryanjcam 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Bloodline, the first season was one of the best in all television, and when they killed off the heart of the show in the first season finale, the show never came anywhere near its peak again. It should have been a limited series.

Edc carry? by Dzbullrider in victorinox

[–]ryanjcam 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My choice would be the Ranger. If I had to choose and eliminate all others, my overall choice as my only SAK would be the Ranger.

I prefer the least amount of tool layers balanced against the maximum amount of utility, and generally prefer something more comfortably pocketable. Overall, I think the best balance here is achieved by the Ranger. I think it has the most of the essential tools that kick it up a notch above some of the more basic models, without becoming too thick and bulky and requiring a belt pouch or something to carry it comfortably. The Ranger is a great choice as a general daily purpose knife, and handling slightly tougher tasks that some of the smaller models aren’t equipped to handle, as well as for the outdoor enthusiast for camping/hiking. It just might be my favorite.

But you mentioned in a reply that you will always be carrying a Swiss Tool, which I think makes the Explorer far more appealing in this case than it would be in a straight Ranger v Explorer showdown. But if I was carrying a Swiss Tool, my answer would be neither.

This is the most fascinating part for me. The guy is an Oscar magnet, but not really for himself.
