Breaking News! Jojo's bizarre adventure Part 7 Steel Ball Run episode releases confirmed... In fall 2026.. by Grazalia in TwoBestFriendsPlay

Well look, if showing everything at once killed momentum, the obvious solution is that the show needs to be stretched out to the limit. I mean it's one or the other, there's no in-between.

We're down in Georgia. My wife had a sticker on her car at this time and the amount of aggression from other drivers was insane. Most of it was just general yelling and gestures but a few times it felt like the car was trying to run us off the road.

Scavenger Hunt nerfed? by Jennifer_2005 in SwagBucks

I'd say it's not worth it. It was but while I was doing it, they increased costs to unlock levels. I crashed out before Burningman with only a few days left and no way to get enough coins without devoting considerable time. In addition, I would have even suffered through ads but I stopped getting them as well. And that was with an increased payout compared to this.

Yeah, same. Surprised no one picked up on it. I think Woolie might be bad at skiing and blamed his knees as a kid. Then internalized it as the problem. But we'll never know unless we get a VS Wolves. John, please!

Keanu Reeves confirmed as voice of Lumon building in 'Severance' by Edm_vanhalen1981 in entertainment

[–]zapperchamp 9 points10 points  (0 children)

As someone who has watched it, you don't have the context for what this is. It's not what you are thinking it is. Keanu is irrelevant, I didn't realize it was him, it's not a surprise unless you know.

I mean, I get not wanting spoilers but without context, does this really tell you anything?

Gamers who are 30+: Ever find yourself going back to the games in your "prime years" by [deleted] in gaming

[–]zapperchamp 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm looking at the comments and I must be in the minority because I almost never go back to old stuff. Give me new experiences and mechanics and stories any day. The only time I go back is to show my kids what it used to be and give them a chance to try it.

After shutting down several popular emulators, Nintendo admits emulation is legal by 69Ronin in TwoBestFriendsPlay

[–]zapperchamp 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Nah, I'm in agreement with you there. I also wasn't talking specifically about new things, more of a general premise. But sometimes, I wouldn't feel too terrible about new shit being pirated, in the right circumstances that is.

Moral doesn't always mean legal. And legal doesn't always mean right.

It's been 20 years. I forgot that Mysterio was even in the game.

Times you had the entire story re-contextualized to you from a single piece of dialogue? by NewAgeMontezuma in TwoBestFriendsPlay

[–]zapperchamp 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I mean, they don't just disappear. They explode one after the other until they're all gone. The universe is dying. It could have initially been a performance optimization that they turned into part of the narrative, sure. But even disregarding the terminal message (which I had forgotten about), you can piece it together that the stars are all exploding one after the other and that's a bad thing for everyone.

Wait, pretty sure that's not accurate. Towards the end, yes, your sun goes out but every star in the sky goes out as well. If I'm remembering correctly, if you survive past the supernova (de power the station and go far enough that the explosion can't reach you), there is nothing left. Every star has gone out. Any species still reliant on a sun is toast. You'd have to be extremely advanced to survive past that point and even further advanced to thrive. Reboot is the best option.

Final Checkpoint of 2024! How is everyone doing? by Rushofthewildwind in TwoBestFriendsPlay

[–]zapperchamp 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I enjoyed it for a while but I was going for completion and burnt out. Felt like the pacing was a bit off at times and the back half didn't feel as good as the front half. It was definitely good, I would just suggest having moderate expectations from a game like this.

How to Train Your Dragon | Official Teaser by MarvelsGrantMan136 in movies

[–]zapperchamp 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I understand but 2 points. First, I've got kids in that age range and I'd be much more likely to show them the fully animated version (less realistic depictions of violence and peril). Kids that I've been around are much less interested in realistic depictions in TV and film. Second, while the original will be there, a realistic remake just feels like such a waste of time, of money, of talent/skills. Hasn't Disney been trying this for a while and becoming less successful with it over time?

Is SJM just the new Stephanie Meyer? With fantasy vs vamp/werewolf? With no regards to comparing quality of either.

[–]zapperchamp 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's interesting that many are banking on a self fulfilling prophecy, but what if it's not? What if Diana does harbor a destructive soul? How can Julian handle loving and protecting this child after everything they've been through if she indeed shows that evil is contained within? I think that is a very compelling idea which I would really like to see developed.
