Eh, I think Hispanic elf is fine. He's honestly the most elf like of the entire cast

yeah, i was gonna say, they are going out of their way with mixed race families. on one hand, i like that they aren't making skin color an issue. there's a hispanic elf, and no one talks about it. the queen is black and her dad is white, who cares. it comes across that they are hiring the people...

yeah i actually just watched those videos a few days ago. it was GREAT how salty people were getting when he first talked about it. "listen, as a fighter pilot i would LOVE for this to be true but none of it makes any sense." and then when it came out that it was just propaganda, the smug look...

yeah, my favorite story of a callsign is "Zeus." He said he was asked about his progress on some paperwork and he lied and said he was almost done with it, so his CO immediately told him he wanted to see it and then had to fill the whole thing out right then and there. His CO said, "You're new...

just recently we-watched this, it's not a perfect movie but even knowing what's going to happen, i was still enthralled the entire third act. it's just an incredibly filmed and executed series of action scenes. i stumbled across a youtuber doing a review of the movie. he's an ex fighter pilot...

as an added supplement

I don't really care enough about Marilyn Monroe to watch this, but what was the reason for the nc17 rating?

volition community manager is going mental and calling people who are criticizing saints row terrorists. this should end well

but... then it's not a reboot... the definition of reboot is starting over. i realize you're attached to snipes, and for good reason, he's amazing as blade... but let's not pretend he didn't cause ALL KINDS of problems for blade 3. dude is so attached to the character that he thinks HE IS...

while i agree with you 100%, i wonder how much of that could be seen from the first episode. i watched quantum leap religiously (i was even such a fan that i really liked the evil leaper stuff), but i haven't ever re-watched any of it so i don't remember what the first episode was about other...

adar and the sword/key theory also i've seen some timeline stuff as well that didn't have a source, so i'm thinking it's all pulled from chris tolkien gathering notes and scribbles and letters. the problem is that some of j.r.r. stuff conflicts with himself. he never "officially" released a...

yeah, initially, sauron (annatar) teaches celebrimbor how to create the rings with the plan of giving all the rings to the elves, but celebrimbor made 3 of them without sauron's input because he started to suspect something was up, but didn't quite know what. so he gave the three rings to cirdan...

i wouldn't say he's a BAD GUY, per se... but i absolutely believe that he very carefully measures and weighs his actions in order to make himself the most marketable. the wrestling world is pretty different than hollywood, so i think he took a misstep based on the echo chamber of hollywood, not...

they need to release morbius again. i bet it'd have no problem against this

because the meaning of those swords are completely different, and PJ didn't understand the nuances of what tolkien meant by it. in the movie, they swords aren't special, it's that the hobbits are introduced to real danger on weathertop. aragorn represents danger, but also the ability to work...

i mean, i absolutely understand that storytelling in a movie is very different than storytelling in a book and you can't have a 1:1 translation between the two. and like i said, fellowship is my favorite movie of the three. it's just that there are things that are missing and/or done...

merry and pippen lose their swords from weathertop in the movies. and again the entire meaning is different. the scene makes it about eowyn saying "i am no man." yes, merry is there and he helps, but there was a reason why "no man" could kill the witch king and it's because he couldn't be...

i rewatched all of them about a year ago and i always loved fellowship way more than the others but i could never understand why. i THOUGHT it was because boromir is one of my favorite characters and he's obviously not in it after fellowship (outside of the extended edition stuff) but it...

that hasnt changed. halbrand is from the southlands

There's some theories that the stranger is a maiar named tilion (who could possibly be one of the blue wizards but I think that's a stretch). The people of rhun called tilion the guardian of the moon. Also halbrand is definitely not sauron, he doesn't have connections to people he should...

i have a TON of nitpicks with this show... obviously so do most people... but i think the most damning is that nothing is happening. i think i'd be fine if they went off and did their own thing separate from the movies and possibly even established lore... i mean on one hand i'd prefer it to...

this is getting silly just to prove a point that i agree with. that being said, braveheart was absolutely NOT marketed as alternate history. it was marketed identically to any other historical piece of entertainment, the same as the woman king, the same as curse of skinwalker ranch. the...

i mean... william wallace was a real person. but what he did in real life vs what he did in the movie is pretty different... so, technically yes? but maybe no? i don't know, man

Yeah, I suppose that's what it is. My sister's first husband is from England and I remember talking to him about rob Roy and braveheart when they came out. He used to say that Scotland has a history of celebrating their own serial killers but I think that was just some friendly historical...

That's an interesting point. I'm almost tempted to agree with you except for times like this movie where it feels offensive on some level. Serious question, why is it okay for braveheart to be inaccurate but not the woman king? I mean, on paper, braveheart is all kinds of inaccurate, but it's a...

i mean... there's a whole lot of unintended consequences on both sides of the argument. viola says that if you want to see more black led movies, go see the woman king. what if i DON'T want to see more black led movies? should i NOT go see this movie? or, perhaps, the reality is that i don't...

I mean... When was the last FF game that DIDN'T take a sharp veer into la-la-land? It's kinda part and parcel.

could you explain this graph a little? what do the different colors represent?

the bottom line is that taika's humor was just dialed up to 11 instead of someone telling him to pull it back a bit. the goats were like a gilbert godfrey joke in that he says something and it's mildly amusing, then says it again until it becomes really pretty irritating, then CONTINUES saying...

not that i'm giving an credence to this argument one way or another, but in kotor 2, kriea, your mentor, asks you to use the force to reach out and read your companions minds and one of your companions, Atton Rand, is constantly just reciting nonsense in his head; bad jokes, engine schematics...

amazon doesn't pay any attention to the source material, so why should we?

i wonder how much of the issue was how historically controlling marvel is about their films? clearly taika wanted to make a very specific film but marvel wanted a villain and made him use gorr. i could obviously be way wrong about the whole thing, but hemsworth and portman both called the movie...

i would be really interested in watching a movie about a man who becomes fed up with traditional gender roles and decides to fight against the matriarchy and become a soldier. men can defend their loved ones, too, right? nah, pipe dream, i know.

walton goggins will at least make you laugh

that's not really a fair comparison, i don't think, because that kid just looks like he wants you to punch him in the face

He'll always be sam and dean's Dad for me

I'm not really replying to this post specifically, just that I agree with a lot of your sentiments on TLJ. A lot (basically everything) of what they tried didn't work, but I appreciate what the attempt was. And while I totally agree with canto bight not really making any sense internally, I...

Seems kinda meta for a show about Harley
