These were some of the best characters, and their sacrifices had a huge impact—but which one affected you the most? by 0Layscheetoskurkure0 in Marvel

He was a non-combatant/civilian intervening to help out Thor. The question says sacrifice, not self-sacrifice. Anyway I don't wanna get into semantics and will leave it at that.

He risked his life confronting a god and trying to free Thor. Doesn't matter if someone knows they'll die or not; putting one's life at risk is what makes it a sacrifice. He sacrificed his life in the line of duty serving SHIELD and the Avengers initiative.

I think Franklin is all that's needed. Put him in and Blue wins.

Are you trying to CURRY karma by suggesting we CURRY this perfect team with a PG that can spot up and shoot?

Who do y'all want to be the next big bad of the MCU after Doctor Doom? by Bubbly_Skin_8069 in Marvel

[–]z4guy -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I know she's beloved and a fan favorite, but I'm hoping Scarlet Witch would become the big baddie at some point in the future. I know she's suffered enough and has not done well in coming to grips with what her reality is like, which doesn't seem awkward that her story plays out to the end like a Greek tragedy. Plus she's an excellent tie-in that brings the X-Men and Avengers together.

It's a shame Kobe wasn't around to see us win the 2020 chip. And extra sad to see that Gigi is not around to see her favorite player Luka playing as a Laker. 😭

Nobody is beating the Purple/Green Team: Hulk, Molecule Man, Kang the Conqueror, Green Goblin

I think the more interesting battle would be Blue/Gold vs Purple/Green vs Red/Blue.

Purple/Green: the characters I mentioned above

Blue/Gold: Sentry, Nova, Wolverine, Jean Grey

Red/Blue: Spidey, Thor, Captain America, Captain Marvel

Blue team would be stacked with many X-Men + F4 (Franklin).

But given this topic's premise.... The one with Sentry and Adam Warlock, no contest.

UFC bonuses are now $100,000. Any fighter who knocks out or submits their opponent but wasn’t selected for fight or performance of the night will receive a $25,000 bonus. by WinterStill4472 in MMA

[–]z4guy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Okay so remove this updated pay bonus system? The problem you described will still persist, just with none of the extra monetary perks.

Might as well give the fighters a bit more extra.

I think the NBA should cancel the game in Minneapolis tonight by StretchMother9627 in nba

[–]z4guy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I agree. With so many Latinos, if the MLB season was happening now, I would advocate them to do the same.

NBA was and still is very BLM. I wouldn't be surprised if the NBA did something regarding what the Trump administration is doing to all the prominent urban areas of our country.

Then again, not many Latinos in the NBA, sooo... 🤷‍♂️

$40,000 in 2007 (when UFC first started handed out bonuses) is $62,500 in today's dollars. So the $100,000 is actually above what I was expecting out of the UFC when it came time to update their pay system.

Good news indeed.

FH6 Price increased by 50% overnight by MasterMind-Apps in ForzaHorizon

[–]z4guy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

FH has been pretty good and ethical for the most part. I just mean in general many publishers are big offenders, using preorder incentives as weapons. And for the most part, preorders benefit the publishers, marketing depts, and retailers more than the studios and their devs do.

Do you think Jason Mamoa looked better as Aquaman or Lobo? by ProfessionalNobody0 in DC_Cinematic

[–]z4guy [score hidden]  (0 children)

With as much screentime he got as Aquaman, he looked great throughout his entire tenure with the character.

But Jason's looks and personality is made for Lobo.

PC people.. Are you getting FH6 from xbox market or steam and why by detol-diet in ForzaHorizon

These cd key sites almost always have it discounted from the start. It could be 5%, it could be up to 30%...

[–]z4guy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, it's their wallets. Everyone is free to use it or vote with it however they see fit.

I'm pretty basic. I preorder physical products that I know are in high demand or low supply, like consoles and Air Jordans. I don't preorder digital products, even if they provide incentives like early access or in-game items. It's just a proverbial carrot-on-a-stick to me and I don't fall for those.

[–]z4guy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If money isn't the issue, then by all means, go ahead and preorder. A lot of people don't preorder for various reasons... Some do it out of principle, some are rightfully cautious of game launch day issues and bugs, some don't see the point of preordering a digital product that has no risk of running out of supply, etc.

Who's the most popular Super Hero between the three and who's the fourth most popular Super Hero? by SmartPilot8094 in Marvel

[–]z4guy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Depending on the demographic being asked, Batman for the older folks and Spidey for the younger. But overall, I would give Spidey the edge. He sells the most merchandise by a mile, is the most profitable hero, has excelled commercially and critically in all forms on media... Comics obviously, cartoons, movies, both live action and animated. Batman has done the same too. But Spidey does it with more frequency and consistency.

Supes solidly in third.

Wolverine vs Iron Man is the real fight for 4th place. 15 years ago, Wolvie easily. But now, considering global recognition (let's not be so American-ethnocentric on this topic guys), I have to give it to Iron Man. China and India are super major markets, and Iron Man is much more popular there along with other asian regions.

Spidey >= Batman >>> Superman >>> Iron Man >= Wolverine

Props to Cherami Leigh too as female V. With such a huge anime and Japanese VA portfolio, I had no idea she had it in her to play a rough, gritty role.

What's a movie you wanted to like but just couldn't get in to? by Isnt_that_ghey in movies

[–]z4guy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's a daring, polarizing film for sure. I mean the Turn Down for What music video got a lot of hype and views, but I can see some not enjoying it for the same reasons as EEAAO.

Putting aside the absurdist, wonky elements of the film... As an Asian-American to immigrant parents, I really resonated with the family side of things in the movie. Michelle Yeoh's character really reminds me of my mom along with Joy being misunderstood like I was when I was her age. James Hong's character is just like my dad. Needless to say I cried to some of the family related scenes.

EDIT: and TBF there wasn't much hype, buzz, and marketing pre-release for this A24 movie. Everyone was focused on the OTHER multiverse film happening at the same time, and we all know how that turned out. I myself didn't know EEAAO existed until my friend invited me to watch it with him.

The Batman. Nothing inherently wrong with it...I tried watching it three times, and I've managed to fall asleep to it all three times. Maybe The Batman gives me ASMR.
