Re: Discussing the StarFortress SF-17 Bombers from The Last Jedi aka WHERE THE HELL ARE THE Y-WINGS?!?!

It's not frustrating that you're not backing up your claim, it's rude. It's also rather hypocritical since making claims and not backing them up is a pretty integral part of racism (I'm not claiming you are racist, but on that aspect you've got something in common). The real racists are the people ...

Re: Something I want to share

Is Trump the answer to that? No, he's just a extremist bigot. But that alone doesn't make the unease and distaste with how society's going something that should then be ignored, just because that gets latched on to by extremist bigots. Ignoring it, sneering at anyone who says anything hinting at it,...

Re: Discussing the StarFortress SF-17 Bombers from The Last Jedi aka WHERE THE HELL ARE THE Y-WINGS?!?!

The Holdo manuever though breaks alot of logic established in previous movies, this breaks everything including real world physics, logic and everything established in previous movies. There's a strong whiff of the type of idiocy that loves to trot out "but it's science FICTION!" and point out exis...

Re: Why Hasn't BioWare Fixed These Issues in Mass Effect 2

Because it never was a remake. ME1 got the most attention due to being the clunkiest but the intention wasn't ever to actually change anything. To be honest if they'd done anything I'd have preferred a complete ME1 remake and leaving the other two alone, if there weren't enough resources to do every...

Re: Art Isn't Supposed to Make Us Comfortable

Problem with that is that it all too often tries to legitimise being offensive and provocotive for the sake of it. Whatever art is supposed to be, trying to p1ss people off isn't it. There's a line between making you think and just being a jerk. And yes, are is supposed to make us comfortable at tim...

Re: Was Chuck too hard on Mariner in Ep 2?

Nope, not too hard on Mariner. She was a complete and utter liability to everything and everyone around her at the start. The "look, what she was doing was right after all!" approach didn't help, it just made the writers look bad. And to their credit they seem to have realised that and changed tack ...

Re: Discovery Season 5

Remember those two scenes from S4 of Discovery with Bryce or whatever his name is, aka the only Asian guy from the bridge, suddenly, out of blue telling Burnham about how his village was wiped out by a hurricane, and the second when Owo literally runs to Saru and tells him about her childhood traum...

Re: Fallout: The Series

Honestly if they want to constantly hit the reset button so that the wasteland never organizes and stops being a lawless wasteland after hundreds of years in defiance of human nature then having villains deliberately do it on purpose is a pretty cool idea. Having it happen five minutes after the ga...

Re: Fallout: The Series

3. 2077 but animation is still 1963 Still? Tastes change all the time and what's considered standard today, would be pretty darn out there just 30 years ago and will be pretty darn out there in 30 years again. So I'd suggest the possiblity, that you should consider that "still" being an "again". Ar...
