I know, theyre like "ok our targets just walked into this city thats so evil and dangerous we wont even go in. Guess we'll just give up and go home!" You could argue a Trolloc wouldnt reason this out, but a Fade would surely be thinking OK, they'll be coming back out soon, lets just wait right...

Probably :( Ep 3, wtf. They all exit Shadar Logoth in a hurry. Somehow, two of them end up on a fucking mountain top, two of them on a big grassland, and two in the forest. And can't find each other. Dickheads, you were all in the same city. Just walk around the wall in a circle til you...

Have they cast Min yet? I have a hard time imagining them doing the "Rand gets 2 chicks" thing. it probably ends up as a tranny-nonbinary throuple by the time we get there.

We're 3 episodes in (I'll be honest, I caved and watched it but fell asleep part way through Ep 2) and y'all are complaining about the fabric choices? This is a fucking dumpster fire and Egwene and Nynaeve are two of the ugliest women cast in any TV role, ever. Not just Zendaya-style "not...

I'm convinced there must be some financial & union politics explanation. Theres simply no logical explanation for it, so I can only imagine its politics & money. The existence of screenwriters, and their obsessive need to "adapt" the book into a script, is the problem in itself. If these people...

lol after I wrote it I was like "wait no I think its a black guy they cast, not a black chick" but I didnt bother to change it. next youre gonna tell me she's actually a lesbian "little person" too

This wasnt bad. I fell asleep for a bit towards the end of the second half but the kids were entertained enough to keep watching. The sidekick chick was annoying but not as bad as this thread had led me to expect (I don't know her outside this movie). Better than Captain Marvel, and by...

I thought somebody told me they were casting black chicks for James Bond now?

this, exactly. Its not like theres a shortage of attractive women in hollywood. They're just deliberately casting very unattractive women in these roles so they can call you racist for objecting. It is literally as jarring to suspension of disbelief as if they cast a fat man for a runner or...

lol this is terrible lmao

I'm tempted to watch the 1st episode just out of curiosity how quickly they abandon the source material. But don't want to get counted as a view. So the question becomes is it worth bothering to pirate something just to hate-watch it?

Not a bad episode, stuff actually happened this week

TIL I learned about this thread. I am humbled and deeply moved at the nomination for this Major Award. Suck it Lithose

I once spent about 3 years engaged to a woman who, early in our relationship, spent a month in an inpatient mental health facility. You mentioned mental health issues. I've learned to trust the professionals on these things. Neurotypical women are crazy enough, maintaining a functional...

I cant speak to 2 days (who leaves a pizza uneaten for 2 days) But pizza left on the counter for 24 hours is absolutely fine. This was the standard leftover pizza storage procedure for 10-20 years of my life and while its hard to say "I turned out fine" its clear that leftover pizza didnt cause...

This matches my experience. Different details but similar overall effect. When I hit 28 my metabolism changed and I started putting on weight with no change in diet or activity. For over a decade I went back and forth between ideal weight and 30 lbs overweight. Then a year or two ago when I...

fml, watching a few minutes of that was enough to cure me of any desire to see this. We used to joke about how next theyd cast a black one armed lesbian midget for max diversity. instead we get a black deaf woman. A deaf Eternal. One of them has cosmic healing powers, but shes still deaf. ok

I've watched almost every MCU movie with my kids, they love these. What kind of sick fuck decides to put gay shit in a kids movie. Its not actually ok.

While youre obviously mentally deficient and just owning yourself over and over, there was a piece in this drivel that was worth responding to. You seem really butthurt. It seems the source of this butthurt is that you thought I was responding to a person, and thought I was responding to the...

You're advocating watching dubbed shows and complaining about subtitles. Then you think anything you say after that will somehow matter This isnt some kind of competition or duel or something where we exchange sick burns and count up the points to see who won, we're just laughing at you

says the guy who "misses visual details" while he reads the dialogue with his lips moving I'd say its ok that youre barely literate but it really isnt, its kind of a problem. The good news is its not too late, adult literacy classes have a very high success rate.

I'm trying to imagine how the court appearances go. Its gotta be weird. Cause I imagine every time they ask if he did it, or about details of how he did it, a deep, satisfied smile slowly spreads across his face as he remembers. Not a happy smile but a "justice had to be done, so I did it"...

Milk is gross to drink so I can kinda understand but cmon, you have to have milk in the fridge if you're gonna cook. Its a pretty widely used ingredient

Why are there night vision drone videos of this event?

Come on bro all the cooking shit you do and you're using a boxed waffle mix? disappoint My waffles are fucking great, I've never had a waffle better than the ones I make. I would just never, under any circumstances, put a fucking piece of fried chicken on them.

I missed the debate over subtitles vs dubbing. It must suck to not read well. I can't imagine having to listen to dubbed shit where the sound doesnt match the lips moving. Doesnt that drive you insane? Its not like they print a novel on the screen. You don't have to read it slowly left to...

Black Chani the protagonist of the story in part 2? Look I dont want to spoil a what, 50 year old book here, but huh? she's a love interest, nothing more, and we're not too far from the point where she exits the story completely

I'll be so glad when the chicken and waffles thing fades to its rightful place in the annals of forgotten culinary experiments. Every time someone comes out with a new fried chicken item they have to serve it on a goddam waffle. Gross, inconvenient, and so fucking gimmicky. Every now and then...

I mean, its right in the name that their culture included some weird futuristic amalgamation of Islam and Buddhism. I dont know why people always fixate on the sunni part and leave out the zen part. Of course, the Fremen culture by the time of the Dune books retains little or none of the...

the lasgun/shield interaction doesnt generate radiation, just a huge explosion comparable (in some cases bigger than) nuclear weapons. I'm not sure if giant explosions are really a generational thing. I took the spider thing to be some kind of gimp, they wanted to portray the depravity of the...

You can see the difference easily if you look at the reflection of a laptop screen in the glass. But thats not really practical in the situation they were in. What the glassmaker was looking for was probably a more subtle version of the same phenomenon.

Yueh (who they totally wasted as a character by never mentioning the breaking of his conditioning) disabled the shields on the building, the ships and individuals still have shields up, right?

I guess I'm not certain about my memory of it. I remember thinking, when the glass expert was comparing the last two plates, that it was a shame he didnt have any non tempered glass left to compare with, and thought there was a shot showing that. But I could be wrong. I know some people chose...

This was really good. I was pleasantly surprised. Black Chani is as ridiculous as expected from previews but its one character in an otherwise really good movie. Aquaman was fine as Duncan; shaving the beard made a big difference. First time I've seen ornithopters done right. It bothers me...

Finally watched this. Mostly really good. The final episode was so dumb I started skipping scenes half way through and kept skipping right til the end. Why even make that episode? What a dumb fucking non ending. Biggest complaints about the show are minor details. 1. That clownish chick that...

If you didnt grow up with Little Golden Books you shouldnt be allowed to vote.

but what if hes just the best actor, dont be a bigot

The problem with all these discussions about the history of the Dune universe is separating the fake, fucked up, bad-fan-fic history in those books that were never written, from any hints of the real history in the books themselves. Mixing the two won't lead to anything good or useful. AFAIK...

If this does badly, the headlines will be "people are tried of superhero movies" And Hollywood will start making woke, tranny, raceswapped versions of something else instead
