@DBUglyheadpod @BleuSpheres I know people are sick of the Trump comparisons, but look at how many people IRL think he’s the pinnacle of manliness, even as he rambles on about broadway shows, interior decorating, and is just obviously a fat rich guy who’s never faced a struggle in his life

@BleuSpheres I mean to me it just showed that if himelander was real people would’ve genuinly fell for it even in a show they somehow fall for it

@PunishedGramsci I don’t think Butcher was actually going to release the virus. He was bluffing to make Hughie kill him. Once HL dies he doesn’t have a purpose anymore. If Terror lived or if Ryan went with him then I think he would’ve just lived out his last days in peace

Them not knowing how to get to Butcher being the actual villain of the show but needing to do a version of the comic ending so throwing in the last 15 minutes "They killed me dog uighe, now I've gotta kill em all" isn't even satisfyingly stupid lol. Thoroughly pointless show.

@SheevTalks @Dread_Botlord I honestly don’t get what point you’re trying to make. Luke *does* beat Vader. So what is the relevance of this supposed scale?

@Dread_Botlord I'm getting to a point where I think I'll have to require you to rewatch the movie before we can continue this discussion, because you seem to have forgotten that there are several scenes after that where the fight is ongoing, and Luke is therefore unable to get to Palpatine

it’s really funny that this guy decided to just redefine all forms of narrative stakes as “powerscaling” and then secreted his argument on an example where the relative “power” of the two characters (luke and vader in the throne room) is almost entirely irrelevant lmfao
Sheev Talks 🟢 || The Andor video arc@SheevTalks

There seems to be some confusion where people are assuming that because most stories will have emotional stakes attached to fights (Luke vs Vader in ROTJ) that that somehow negates the existence of physical stakes, as though those two don’t go hand in hand.

@GeneratorRexy What a horrible sweeping statement to make lol. I guess hard sci-fi writers that obsess over the spec of ships and the manoeuvres they can pull off in 0g environments are bad writers?

@souljagoyteller I’m on your side, but the villain is very much *implicitly* bisexual That’s the point of the whole “snails and oysters” scene

Stanley Kubrick’s Spartacus, from 1960, is very clearly meant to attack anticommunism and has an explicitly bisexual villain, while William Wyler’s Ben-Hur gives a positive commentary on decolonization

Hope: the first hour of Na Hong-jin’s blockbuster creature feature is electric. then you actually *see* the creature and it all falls apart. the script is worthy of the Mummy Returns-level CGI. something went very wrong here. my #Cannes review: indiewire.com/criticism/movi…

@WeirdMedieval This is because Kingdom of Heaven is not trying to be about the Middle Ages, it’s trying to be a metaphor for 9/11 and the war on terror. And it rocks.

@TheAlexSylvian Are you implying that the IRA was too stupid to see through this trick, and that’s what prevented them from bombing random Hollywood execs?

I like how all the thrillers in the 90s made the IRA the bad guys but they didn't want to get bombed in real life so they would just say they were an evil dissident offshoot of the real IRA
