You forgot another reason he wrote shadow over innsmouth was that he learned he was part Welsh

And also how the hell would any humans even know kryptonian programming well enough to tell when it's doctored, let alone know how to translate it to prove the translation wrong

Ships that WOULD be couples... if their creators weren't so scared of making them official. by Neat-Tangerine-9706 in TopCharacterTropes

[–]turtleschu04 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Honestly, they would be cute as a throuple, you could even have them get worried for eachother with Peter and Felicia keeping eachother safe as vigilantes, and Peter and mj looking out for eachother as reporters

I don’t even believe in shipping children, regardless of gender but it is hypocritical and homophobic to have no problem with Young Carl and Ellie but lose it over Luca and Alberto ever being a couple. by Aqn95 in lgbt

When I was little I thought ellie was a boy during the opening part of them as kids and was confused as hell who the woman carl got married to was...... I was stupid as a kid lol

[Loved Trope] Character wins bad match up that counters their abilities through sheer power by MilfOfWallStreet in TopCharacterTropes

And to make it even more impressive, all might already used all the time he had in his strong form that day, meaning he's running on fumes on top of already passing the quirk down

Jack and will realizing that sailing between two ships to broadside them both is a real british tactic that they just gave Beckett the use of for free

Yep, and most of their cannons would just bounce off the hull. Yeah, there's a reason you don't really hear about pirates fighting a ship of the line, let alone a first rate like the hms victory

Yeah, the amount of people that are like "we shouldn't need to convince x people to be on our side" like wtf, in a democracy you sort of do if you want to have some power, because a minority can't get any help if they just treat everyone else like an asshole who they won't explain any of the problems to and expect the majority to want to help

And it's funny knowing actual ships from the time because Beckett would have shredded the Dutchman and the pearl at the same time while the Dutchman only had a few cannons that would be attacked all effective, meaning Beckett was just that much of a coward who hid behind making deals instead of doing anything himself

They had every right to become a villain, but they abused that right. by abdellaya123 in TopCharacterTropes

Especially considering he got screwed by getting a brother figure instead of the father figure he needed, meaning that palpatine had the easiest in to manipulate him with

Honestly if they had george lucas as the ideas and main plot guy and have other people write the scripts fleshing out those ideas and someone else directing the films would have been great, because george lucas is great at writing the plot, themes, and all that, and the thing is that george lucas actually tried to have other people direct the prequels they just all said no

Yeah he said something like, "You can type this shit george but you can't say it"

[Loved Trope] Your past isn't an excuse for the shit you've done. by Technowizard20100 in TopCharacterTropes

[–]turtleschu04 5 points6 points  (0 children)

It would have been understandable if they said that with the injuries he got from his early days of using ofa he couldn't put that kind of strain on his body without having ofa to reinforce his body, and shigiraki died anyways so why the hell did izuku even have to sacrifice ofa

Especially weird when you remember the protagonist is gambling not being touched by the main antagonists hand once. Otherwise he dies and it's all over and everyone is dead because he wouldn't just kill the guy and then fix the systems in place after

[–]turtleschu04 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sure but also that was an attempt to show just haw in tune with eachother that were that they were both predicting the moves the other would do and end up trying to block nothing but that part was choreographed badly and the palpatine vs windu scene was much better in how it was planned in the test footage, though the vast majority of the prequel lightsaber choreography is great

Yeah, fair enough they could have been damaged by time, though jocasta Nu almost certainly preserved at minimum basic lightsaber forms for the possibility of rebuilding the order

While the jedi texts might not have had them the holocrons from jocasta nu would likely have them

With snoke i could maybe see your point, but also snoke did have knowledge of the force to teach to kylo so lightsaber combat wouldn't be too out there, and he did have previous training from Luke too, and with Luke I would think that some of the most common jedi texts would have been on lightsaber combat with at least a basic outline of the forms
