Now for some reason hes making a sequel to Gladiator, which for whatever reason is generally considered a good, even great movie.

I thought I already shared my views on Gladiator.

And yes, Gladiator is bad fictional melodrama.

I have no issue with the colour palette, though.

I have not. The trailer made it look it had three colour tones and they were all a shade of grey or brown and it's based on an uninteresting story so I can only assume it's largely fictional melodrama.

Also any interest I might have had died when Scott threw a babyface temper tantrum that people didn't go to see it.

But sure, Alien Covenant and Prometheus were bad, so he's awful

Also Kingdom of Heaven, Body of Lies and American Gangster.

The Martian is also extremely much a cozy loveable old man fart movie.

a b or d movie or two in between genre defining masterpieces is a lot different than the ham farts he puts out between medium to good fare these days and acting like that isnt the case is silly. Nevermind that hes currently working on dismantling the legacy you praise so much. Alien did not need an origin story and it did not need to be as stupid as Prometheus. Nevermind whatever the fuck Covenant was. Now for some reason hes making a sequel to Gladiator, which for whatever reason is generally considered a good, even great movie. Theres no way current day Ridley Scott wont make Gladiator 2 an old man fart movie and theres no way he wouldnt have done the same with BR2049

Villeneuve is the new king of sci fi. Please step aside gracefully, Ridley.

Not even sci-fi, hes just the king. Easily the best new director of the millennium.

Prisoners was shit, though

I'd recommend using the thesaurus to pick other words.

Its a good word for Scotts filmography.

Id say BHD is the last time Scott directed a truly great movie, with a few minor ejaculations of alright/fun stuff like The Martian since.

Japan was already planning to surrender... to the Soviet Union. Truman dropped those bombs to hasten Japanese surrender on terms favorable to America.

People always throw out these claims as if they are fact and there was absolutely zero other reasons for the bombs, such as the obvious and commonly stated one.

they were out of bombs at that moment, but they almost had another ready by the time of the surrender.

From my understanding, thr Japanese military dictatorship deemed it unlikely that the US had more than one bomb and viewed Horoshima as their last ditch before an invasion.

Though that might be war mythology.

Thank god he let a good director make 2049

why did he need to drop two of them? Why wasnt one enough?

Whats your purpose in vegemently and repeatedly pointing out a supposed flaw of so little significance as to be irrelevant.

I dunno what that means but Im not equating whatever garbage Hasan cooks up in his delusional mind to all forms of socialism.

People buying two copies of the games is the logical conclusion of the design choice to release incomplete games

They literally do digital combopaks where you get both.

The games still were designed for trading, its bot greedy to have that design

That design was always incredibly greedy.

I dont believe you, tc.

Why does it matter to you if Nintendo, TPC or Game Freak gets the blame for the pathetic state of the franchise?

There is literally no reason to distinguish between them unless your goal is to wash the butt of your favourite corporate entity that doesnt care about you with your tongue.

I hate this topic

The better quality pieces because Im an adult.

The joke here is that the issue only affects people silly enough to pay for the online pass expansion.

Not as lazy as the blame Gamefreak is gettinghere for a game they had no development involvement with.

Jesus Christ dude.

TC you sure seem to like to twist anything remotely involving Hasan into something negative about him. Did he hurt you?

Well he is a moron who despite knowing nothing about politics or economy (and myriad other issues) makes a living trying to sell people on an ideology he doesnt follow and which would drive his fans into poverty if they actually attempted it without first establishing a twitch empire.

Hes also a nepotism baby.

And he downplayed Hitlers atrocities when he needed to to defend Putins invasion of Ukraine.

Me: That sounds incredibly boring, but Ill sit next to you and rub your panty region while reading a book as you do it.

Xqc is the worst at it. Hasan will shout out and doesnt usually upload the videos to YouTube, but doesnt care if his legion of trust fun children do

I remember one confrontation Cenks nepo nephew had over this a year or two ago where he most definitely did not do shoutouts.

shipping name? Dall? Woor?

Personally I think as a US citizen it would be more pleasant that it didn't happen in the US.

Oh well I dunno then. Do any anime other than pokemon have 4 movies?

An acceptable but incorrect Onimusha ranking

To be honest I've had 8 cats throughout my life and only one of them didn't die of old age or traffic issues. So to me 300 dollars for bloodwork for a pet animal does sound insane if there's no obvious issue at hand.

I've also never been suggested by a vet to get such a thing except if the cat was sick.

They have milk in Japan?

Looks delicious

Because it's rough and coarse and gets in the vagina.

Camel sheep

I've never seen this movie, but I know reference.

When will this happen? Anyone got a time? One that including a "time from now" response because I can't read US times and convert them. My brain refuses.

Cyndaquil line is cooler than Charmander line, deal with it.

I can also state lies and tell people to deal with it.

Luvdisc is cooler than Starscourge Radahn

Deal with it.

Imagine caring about the trashfire fake Charizard firestarter line.

Even Meganium is cooler.

No, it can play Mass Effect 3, the best shooter.

The worst troll on the site and has been for years.

Can someone explain to me the logic, as in Phil's stated logic, for him rebuying Street Fighter 6 on PS5?

Like he said, IT'S CROSS PLATFORM!

Okay he wants to spend a "huge" amount of money on an identical fight stick for PS5 and the extra button shit. But he already had that fight stick for Xbox where his SF6 copy is. AND IT'S CROSS PLATFORM!

Is he planning on ending his Gamepass subscription? Obviously not, he keeps saying how amazing it is. So I see absolutely zero logic to rebuying the game on PS5 other than the obvious truth that Phil will obviously deny. He wants to reset his rating so he can play against worse players are not lose as much.

I assume he didn't include on stream the part where when you turn on the game for the first time you have to choose your experience level for the purpose of rating placement. Because I know what I think he chose.

But seriously, what is the pretend logic to justify this? Presumably it's not just 60 dollars, he's gonna buy microtransactions to get the skins, he probably got the deluxe edition again to get the fighter pass.

This is insane. Beyond what is normal for Phil. Most of his behavior the past week has been an escalation. The whole making fun of a viewer for knowing something Phil doesn't and then not apologizing when he learns that the viewer was right and banning them when they asked for said apology. That is some of the scummiest interactions he's ever had with his audience that doesn't involve him scamming them out of money.
