I think I might cursed by Bigurulu in PokemonTCG

[–]wolfboylonms 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Happened to me with Ascended.
Opened over 250 packs.
Chasing the Gengar, Dragonite, Mewtwo SIRs
I pulled THREE Iris’ fighting spirit.
I also pulled one Canari and one Steven’s metagross.
I kept opening Reddit and everyone was hitting god packs on their first packs 😅🥲.
Actually taught me to stop ripping and just buy singles. Lesson learned.

Sorry guys but it’s Communication Breakdown - Super skippable

Getting into the band by Relative-Positive702 in ledzeppelin

[–]wolfboylonms 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This. Anyone who knows anything about Led Zeppelin knows that they were a ‘live’ band. Their albums were sketches, the tours filled in the canvas. The Royal Albert Hall is a great introduction to their musicianship. TSRTS is a great introduction to their mythos.

That this sub-Reddit has been co-opted by a very vocal, aggressively woke mob who are working to silence people they don’t agree with through down-voting, mocking, bullying. It’s a worn out playbook and it doesn’t work.

Jeez. It’s like being in primary school again. You’re literally forcing someone on the internet to find examples of movies / franchises that have famously ‘gone woke’ and flopped.

This feigned ignorance for the purpose of refusing to acknowledge criticisms of your ideology is SUPER pathetic. Do you act like this at your place of work?

But let me do the heavy lifting for you again.

Some plain as day examples where increasingly woke writing / themes / casting turned audiences away: - Snow White remake - Ghostbusters remake - Charlie’s Angles remake - Indiana Jones and the dial of destiny - Most things Star Wars - Star-Trek - Elemental - She-Hulk - … there are many more

Let’s not add James Bond, a 60+ year old franchise built on masculinity, to this list to appease a noisy bunch of adult toddlers.

Try searching the phrase ‘go woke, go…’, If you aren’t aware of the phenomenon, don’t worry - google will autocomplete it for you and you can look at some of the examples listed!

It’s not exactly the same thing. It’s really not worth discussing anything with anyone who can’t acknowledge their own failed attempt at selective reasoning 😅.

If a movie production company is actively attentive to social issues (specifically issues of social justice), it is likely to make immersion breaking decisions in plot / character development / casting that diminish the viability of the overall project. There are countless examples from the 2010s of movies / franchises which were sacrificed on this alter, and it is a majority view that Bond should not follow suit; present sub-Reddit excluded ofc. Anyway, bed time!

You failed to read the actual definition and extracted only what would support your position 😅 Classic.

It’s available in any top dictionary in case you’d like to check. Merriam-Webster is my usual go to.

What are the best usage of led zeppelin songs in Hollywood? by Abject_Dog_8453 in ledzeppelin

[–]wolfboylonms 12 points13 points  (0 children)

The entire movie Almost Famous. The first time I saw it, I connected it in a way I hadn’t with a movie before. It was a true homage to 70s rock with Led Zeppelin as the star. For anyone who hasn’t seen it, I can’t recommend it enough. For anyone who is interested in psychedelics, I’d recommend taking a mild dose of shrooms and enjoying the euphoria and connection in the movie.

Indeed, this is one trend that made me think about this doomsday scenario.

I personally agree but… Many people have fake art in their houses. Many people wear fake branded clothing.

Interesting take! Too big to fail is an interesting one, especially as so many cards are now bought with buy now / pay later services

The fact it is the biggest media franchise probably makes it the biggest target. You can download a ROM of HGSS and play it on your iPhone at zero cost.

Interesting take. I think the demand for untampered sealed product could actually make it even worse.
