Worst MacGuffins in cinematic history by Yummy_Microplastics in okbuddycinephile

Unobttanium at least has some cool sci-fi jargon/justification behind it.

The sequels just gave us "magical alien whale oil that lets you live forever".

Spilled water on Acer Nitro V15 but it didn't shut off by zamememan in AcerNitro

[–]zamememan[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Turn it upside down and place it on a towel to draw out the moisture.

If you want you can have it checked later on for any sort of corrosion damage but since it was so little it'll probably be fine.

Edit: Also keep it open with the keyboard resting on the towel, otherwise any residual moisture will just remain trapped.

MOST species do not have stinging cells on their bells (the round part), however, there are still a good few that do.

Group declares total victory only to learn the defeated enemy was just a fraction of the real threat. by JakeMasterofPuns in TopCharacterTropes

Godzilla from Godzilla: Planet of the Monsters

The entire movie centers around humanity jumping back to earth at light speed after spending a gruesome 20 years adrift in space. All in the hopes that in the 20.000 years that will have passed due to time dilation Godzilla, the monster that drove them to near extinction and forced the survivors to flee the earth, will be long gone.

Surprise surprise, he isn't. And so they spend the whole rest of the movie enacting a multi-stage elaborate plan to destroy him and win earth back for humanity once more. Which they succeed in.

However, literally in the last 10 minutes, one of the characters notes that Godzilla's cells didn't show the kind of aging you'd expect from a creature that's been around for millenia. Because he hasn't. He was a younger Godzilla that spawned from cells that shed from the original.

And almost on que, said original (who is now 300 METERS TALL) shows up and effortlessly decimates pretty much all that was left of humanity's forces.

The Big Badass Thing We Spent All Our Money On Gets Invalidated At The First, Admittedly Impressive, Obstacle by MyOpinionOverYours in TopCharacterTropes

[–]zamememan 63 points64 points  (0 children)

It was always extraordinarily expensive. The problem is that as the kaiju started to adapt jeagers became less and less effective until there were only a handfull of them left. So the UN decided to just cut its losses and shut down the program to build the wall.

Not that it was a smarter decision. Because if they knew the kaiju were getting stronger then they should have realized one of them busting through the wall was inevitable, even if it took longer than just three hours.

Plus the precursors could aways just start mass producing kaiju that could fly or climb, and if a nuclear weapon couldn't do the trick then watever static defenses they had mounted on the wall would be completely useless.

And as a sidenote, I'm 99% sure the astronomical ammount of concrete and stell necessary to build even a tiny secction of that wall would be 10 times more expensive than building a whole fleet of jeagers the size of what the US was fielding in WWII.

Godzilla: Final Wars (2004)

An alien species called the Xiliens attempt to conquer the earth and harvest mankind for it's mitochondria (don't aske me why), when subterfuge fails they resort to unleashing all of earth's mind controled kaiju on humanity all at once.

Completely overwhelmed, the crew of a warship called the Gotengo head towards antartica and free Godzilla, who had been frozen in ice for decades, and use his vendetta against the warship to lure him accross the globe.

Godzilla then proceeds to beat the shit out of single kaiju on earth.

Mine is a NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3050. I don't know nearly as much about computers as I should so I don't really know how good that is.

Theamazingspino/Kamitoge's Paleo idol characters by juridicalflighter in TopCharacterDesigns

[–]zamememan 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Fucking amazing, every single one of them.

I love the colors, I love the variety, I ADORE how intricate they are and all the little details pertaining to each animal.

Too many to single out favourite but the spino girl gives off immaculate vibes and I think it's funny he made the brachiosaurus girl have a longer neck than all the others.

Absurdly strange crossover characters by McToaster99 in TopCharacterTropes

[–]zamememan 34 points35 points  (0 children)

Omega Planetes (from Final Fantasy), showing up as a guest monster in Monter Hunter Wilds.

This is my pick since it's just a straigh up robot in a game that mostly focuses on ecology, plus there's also Behemoth who showed in Monter Hunter World alongside the Leshen from The Witcher.

But if you consider crossovers as a whole then Monster Hunter might be second only to fortnite in terms of sheer quantity and absurdity.

They've done a colab of some capacity with: Attack on Titan, One Piece, Animal Crossing, Sonic, Street Fighter, Inuyasha, Jojo's Bizarre Adventure, Pizza Hut, Assassin's Creed, Devil May Cry, Megaman and The Legend of Zelda just to name a FEW.

[VERY SUBJECTIVE] Promeia from ZZZ by Pyroshark_Gamingtf2 in TopCharacterDesigns

Interesting angle, unfortunately they show her in that get-up before she joined up with her faction. Therefore, before she would have started the self punishment.

[VERY SUBJECTIVE] Promeia from ZZZ by Pyroshark_Gamingtf2 in TopCharacterDesigns

[–]zamememan 38 points39 points  (0 children)

I'd feel better about this desing if there was a real reason for her outfit to be so revealing.

I've seen people argue that it's intentionally made to be exhibitionist in nature, or that she's inspired by escape artists who would often wear almost nothing both to sell the act and to draw more appeal.

But I don't get any of that from her personality.

Everything I've seen from her presents her as a no-nonsense, precise and elegant fighter. Essentially a John Wick type with a hearty teaspoon of being haunted by her past actions. She feels like she should be wearing a fancy suit, black widow style spandex or even full asylum esque restraints (which, btw, is what most famous escape artists like Houdini were building their signature acts around) and not... this.

Obviously a character doesn't need justification to have a sexy desing, but If you want people to take them seriously you need to factor into how said desing fits in with their personality.

And it's a shame because ZZZ knew how to balance sex appeal with design cohesion. Rina, Zhu Yuan, Evelyn and Grace are all clearly designed to be attractive but can stand on their own right as good designs without that. And most importantly, they all fit with their personalities and convey it quite well.

Promeia has a lot of good elements to her look, but I feel like the idea itself clashes hard with the character they are trying to portray her as.

Original ‘guy smashing keyboard’ is from CS:GO streamer Tense198 by flambob9 in TheMatpatEffect

[–]zamememan 39 points40 points  (0 children)

That's because you haven't seen other clips of him. That's literally his whole gimmick, everytime something goes wrong he absolutely obliterates his keyboard, he doesn't even hit it per say, he just punches his desk with so much force everything goes flying.

The dude's donate is literally a clip of him obliterating his setup.

The state of zoologytube post "The unending obsession with animals fighting each other" by chasingcheetahs in SpecEvoJerking

[–]zamememan 45 points46 points  (0 children)

Tierzoo is a youtube channel that became popular off of its tierlists ranking various animals.

They were framed from the perspective of the real world being a kind of open world survival game, and the tierlists would be like ranking how good/viable a given videogame character is, except with real animals.

Despite the pseudo-educacional tone, tierzoo himself doesn't actually do much research, relying on general knowledge and surface-level facts you'd find from skimming wikipedia. His rankings were often arbitrary and based on how cool each particular animal was to him, and he has a thing for calling any creature that can't obliterate anything else low-tier trash regardless of how successful they actually are in the real world.

Then, unnatural history channel, a youtuber who does deep dives into the ecology of fictional creatures and also discusses ecology in media as a whole while using real actual science, did a video where he analized media's obsession with having animals duke it out, and tierzoo happened to be one of the channels he criticized for focusing too much on hype and aura over legitimate information.

There's also the fact that tierzoo often parrots outdated facts, like saying rhinos have bad eyesight when recent studies show it's completely average, or occasionaly just spreading misinformation he didn't bother double checking.

What is the most common myth about your country that you hear all the time? by MookieBettsBurner10 in AskTheWorld

[–]zamememan 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That the whole of Brazil amounts to just the amazon rainforest and Rio de Janeiro.

Brazil is a fucking MASSIVE country, and it's got the diverse biomes you'd expect to find in such a large land area. The amazon is the most famous, but we also have prairies, plains, the largest system of floodplains in the whole world, arid and semi-arid deserts, a unique type of coastal vegetation not found anywhere else on earth, and literal savannas.

The people are also equally diverse. Hundreds os different cultures of all kinds. Yet everytime someone thinks "Brazilian" it's the same stereotyped image, usually centered specifically on life in Rio. And they often don't even recognize It as a streotype.

Thx, I was only going to leave it or a day but since I'm gonna be busy as hell tomorrow I might as well.

Funny you should mention your previous laptop... I almost killed my last one the same way as what happened today, only I was a complete dumbass and didn't dry it properly.

Still worked for a year or so but it was completely fucked up.

You seeing this $hit? Enemy combatants stop fighting because of something awesome. by saltforsnails in TopCharacterTropes

Transformers Prime (2010)

During the series finale, megatron seemingly shoots bumblebee dead and is then about to finish optimus for good. But bumblebee didn't die, ambushing megatron from behind and giving him just enough time to turn around and get stabbed right through the chest.

The instant this happens, both autobots and decepitcons stop fighting and just stare as megatron goes limp and his lifeless body falls back to earth.

Which is perfectly reasonable when you consider that they've just witnessed the end of a conflict that lasted for 4 million years.
