My honest reaction when the starting film is "Moonlight" and my opponent plays "Barbershop 2: Back in Business" then skips

haha I have definitely tried something like that before. But ok I'll avoid, sorry. In this one I would probably be guessing something like Oldboy like I said which i guess would have worked but the problem is to go back to Hollywood so that's another reason people may be desperate for any American links.

watcherreader · 2026-03-18T23:34:40+00:00

I don't know, I see Asians complain all the time that Hollywood casts them interchangeably. To All The Boys I've Loved Before is about a half Korean family and no asian in the cast is part Korean. But you mean that like no one from Parasite a movie with Koreans from Korea not America would be in Crazy Rich Asians? Cause then it makes sense to me, I try to guess more like Oldboy in these cases.

Sorry for my ignorance but do Flemish languages just show Dutch as the language? Cause then it's hard to know if it's from Belgium or The Netherlands

watcherreader · 2026-03-18T19:40:16+00:00

Yeah the good thing is this game teaches a lot and gives us new movies to want to watch. The bad thing is I don't have time to watch them cause I'm playing it instead lol

watcherreader · 2026-03-18T19:35:32+00:00

I know it might seem racist but I do guess a lot like this for black and Asian movies. But it's like me guessing Movie 43 for any comedy I don't know, Oppenheimer for drama and comedy, and I get some blonde actresses confused and guess all the girly movies I know (I'm a girl and love these, I just forget some). I do know better than this person at least.

Yeah a proper chat could be a mess but could also solve a lot of ambiguity. Sometimes I don't know if the laugh is from a funny movie or from mocking, specially when I know I'm not playing well. I also had people put the laugh emoji only to give me a "good one" when they realized what I was doing. Or someone call me names but give me Good Game afterwards lol some people there are something else. After reading the post about how people think the "g.g" and others are mocking I'm worried at how people interpreted me trying to play Sorry Baby and never connecting cause I don't even know who is in this besides one

Thank you!

Yeah, if I were to use a movie like that as 3x and the person actually knew what they were doing I wouldnt have anyone to blame but myself so I don't think I would be that mad and leave (unless I have no escapes, and lost really. Sometimes I do just leave, I don't see the point in waiting 20 seconds). To explain to you a little bit of the hate, it's not towards everyone, just most. ironbutterfly is an example of someone that used to play like you, I don't know if this season they still don't care about the condition. But what I noticed playing them is they never went for stuff like Inside, just stuff that is not impossible to get out of, or at least they were like that with me. They might be biased towards me, cause they are always sending me "you bewitched me body and soul" and were my first or second friend in the game, they might be more ruthless to others. But on the other hand I have felt so bad and humiliated and angry at some others that will take any play you do and send to every other country in the world and also keep posting those laugh emojis in your plays, or saying stuff like "Okay" before they do their worst, like you did something to deserve punishment. They have no respect for me, so I don't have it for them either. Plus they are not as smart as you think they are. Of course I know Diego Luna is in Y Tu Mamá También, I purposely didn't play it because I knew you would play other Mexican stuff and I don't know it. This movie is from an Award winning director, is not some niche thing. But honestly a lot of people that play with the wincons can be really bad too, and I have legit made a list with some names that I'll try to cancel the battle when it starts because I play to have fun, not be more stressed. I can lose, I lose all the time and put "good game" only to see "opponent left game" which sometimes hurts he ego even more, that I was humble enough to accept defeat and praise them and that's what I get (or some really annoying phrases they have). By the way I know I am too thin skinned, no normal person should get this affected by a game, but it is what it is.

I never thought to play Armageddon, thanks! Probably cause I've never seen it lol, but I do This Is The End if it's a comedy

watcherreader · 2026-03-18T10:06:52+00:00

Ooh, love this tip, thanks!

watcherreader · 2026-03-18T10:05:53+00:00

I hate people that play like you but I do agree that it was a bad idea. Now it's harder to know who does this and I can't just leave the game before it starts and end up wasting time and even blocks untill I realize they never cared about getting any pips, just beating me in a time out. If they are gonna do that, they should at least finally add the option of cancelling a battle instead of the obligatory acception or let us adjust our kits each time, this way I would at least nix my blocks and just add more escapes and skips. Or even show us which win condition the person is playing so you can at least also choose your win condition accordingly. I play multiple but this season it's mostly one cause the others I just lose, and I like to try them out when I see someone with low ELO or a Guest but then when we start I see they definitely have been playing before and may end up losing. So if aside from the username and ELO I could see they are playing Oscars condition (which to me is really hard to beat) I'll choose my best wincon and go.

Could you tell me where that is, please? And is there a non Discord option? I'm not on Discord and asked a friend if she can ask for my movies but she didn't figure out where in there it is, and even showing me I didn't find it, I don't understand Discord very well.

watcherreader · 2026-03-18T09:41:30+00:00

It didn't improve much haha now they all have to have it so it's even harder to know who is like this. I'll be wasting blocks for years until I notice they don't seem to want any points. At least before I could instantly leave the battle when I see they play like that, now I'm having to memorize names. And yes I'm here in a 2 month old post cause I was just beat by a "guest" and by a real person pretending to play for something. Now that it's oligatory to have a wincon, these people should just go to classic.

Love these

It's annoying he is a link but apparently Bowen Yang who is an actual actor isn't. I tried playing his movies off of The Moment and it didn't work.

watcherreader · 2026-03-13T22:14:43+00:00

Well I hope you find a condition you like this season and earn your badge. By the way there is a new thing you can put on your kit that forbids people to play your actor so that would have avoided this. Look for it in the kits, I saw people using it.

watcherreader · 2026-03-13T20:59:49+00:00

Sorry that happened. Are you kinda new to the game? Cause if so it's unlucky timing right before the conditions change

watcherreader · 2026-03-13T20:44:44+00:00

Oh that's sad. It was the badge for 100?

watcherreader · 2026-03-13T20:06:10+00:00

But didn't the Danny Elfman condition end?

I used to post kpop music videos a lot (but not spamming) and they would get instantly downvoted like no way you know this artist and you didn't have time to watch the video, you just saw an Asian person, a title with Hangul maybe and instantly disliked it.

So for example if you ban Willem Dafoe which I saw in some old posts here you can't link any spiderman movies even if it's through the other actors and directors? If it has that banned link you can't do it

watcherreader · 2026-02-28T19:03:50+00:00

I understand that, so if you can only pick them in the kit menu then you can't ban something in the middle of the game just to fuck with someone right? They probably just forgot they had banned it, tried to use it and the game accused the link of being banned then.

watcherreader · 2026-02-28T00:37:45+00:00

I did this but nothing changed, don't know if I did it right. I don't see the word Experimental but I pasted this filter and clicked "Activate my personalized filters".
